Does anyone know when the xbox 360 will be available to buy?

November 22nd

 

[Smartazz]

I meant when they will be back in stock, unless you mean Novermber 22nd 2006?

This is an online inventory locator. I haven't seen any in my local electronic stores for quite some time. Your best bet is to get it online. I think gamestop.com also has bundles available right now last I checked, might be all sold out now though.

If you look around for awhile, they aren't hard to find. Best Buy.com had them in stock most of the day yesterday.

Keep checking around. It sounds like the larger shipments have begun hitting stores.

I bought a premium model yesterday for my son.

 

[purbeast0]

Yah they were in stock in best buy yesterday, if only you had looked in the official thread

I got the premium box from Target in the beginning of March, I finally opened it a couple days ago. DOA4 looks so nice. GRAW looks like fun too, I'm still practicing in the training program.

I know, I thought it was too good to be true, I looked later that day and it was sold out, still mad about that.

Sounds like you need the power of GottaDeal: http://www.xbox-360.com/

Retailers that have them in stock local to me:

Future Shop (xWho Knows, at least 6)
WalMart (x3)
Zellers (x2)

Premiums, of course. Core-Tards go home.

Yeah, I saw tons of it at Costco yesterday. I didn't know there is still a shortage.

Yeah, MS is just now able to send out massive shipments. Before, their weekly shipments to each store was so small that the units would get snatched up immediately.

Bumpity of a question. Does anyone know if you can connect a Kb+mouse for FPS?

 

[BRObedoza]

saw a bunch at my local Costco last night

 

[igowerf]

My friend says that there are tons in stores now.

 

[TwiceOver]

Everywhere except for one of the two Gamestop stores have both core and premium packages here.

 

[mrrman]

lots on the West Coast in Canada(Vancouver)

i had an order at proadvantage.com that was supposed to be fulfilled by the end of february, but it never came to fruition and i then received an email saying they were delayed till june. that weekend, my husband decided to go to circuit city by chance and there turned out to be 5-6 premium systems there and 3-4 core systems there. we picked one up and were happy.

(the purchase was made in westchester county, ny, btw, right above the bronx)

I don't know what the exact state of KB/Mouse connectivity is, but I know they won't work at all in FPS'es instead of a controller.

You may be able to use them to enter text (like when you're setting up your Live account), or for in-game text chat (but why would you need to do that with the built-in voice chat?)

edit: I saw on CNBC about two weeks ago that Microsoft had added a third manufacturer and should be able to meet demand now.
