Everyone who lined up first thing in the morning for the xbox will not be to happy to learn that BEST BUY is only stocking 40 per store. According to my friend's dad who is district manager for Cook County Best Buy Stores. All bests buys in the country as well as most other retailers will only receive a small initial shipment for launch.

Actually, most stores had more than 40, that was just the guaranteed amount. Now, Walmart was only guaranteed 12 or so a piece, and you're not complaining about Walmart why?

Uh...Actually my brother has one. I've tried to give it a chance, but there's really nothing special about it. Microsoft really doesn't care about their buyers. But, yeah, you're right. Nobody asked for my opinion, so I'm sorry for further ruining a pointless thread.

We all care (even I am considering an Xbox 360) because it is a true Next-Gen console, along with PS3, and Revolution. We are finally seeing true near CG quality in games, in real-time.

This generation of consoles will be a battle of the graphics.

Dude, honestly. The above comments you stated make absolutely NO sense.

Honestly I do not see graphical improvement in the 360's games.
Maybe its because the launch games didn't harness its potential or what not but I won't come close to buying one unless they can show me it doing something better.

Youre kidding i hope. You see no difference in graphics?!. Then new nba games blow away anything out on the ps2 or xbox.

yeah, the dude must be blind or something, i agree the improvement isnt as earth shattering as the ps2 was over the psone, but it is clearly there

NBA 2K6 - Xbox 360

If you can't see the difference in quality, you need glasses or something.
