Im trying to get a Xbox 360 on tuesday. I know I should have reserved it or something. I was going to wait for the PS3 (might get flamed for that) but the Xbox is so tempting and Ps3 has been delayed. So screw PS3, now I much rather have a Xbox 360. What stores could I get it on tuesday without a reservation (or can I reserve it at gamestop/ebgames still?). Also what time do these stores open so I can wait outside for like 15 mins before they open.

Thanks,

The Xbox Iguana

If you want to get one i'd get there atleast 5 hours before the store opens and bring people to wait in line with. Coming 15 minutes before will mostly like get you nothing.

5 hours is kind of long to wait outside a store. If they all sell at 12pm then they will most likely not close the store at 10 or 11pm. I wonder if you can get the box before 12 and just not buy it until 12(that would be nice). Im gonna call Circuit City, Game Stop, and Walmart because those are the only stores within 5-10 min drive.

i'll admit its kinda crazy what people will do to get a 360, but i think if youre not willing to wait 6+ hours in a line to get it..you dont really want one that bad on release day.

stores like best buy will close at normal time, and then use that hour or 2 before midnight to set up for the rush. also check with your BB do see if they are doing a midnight release, it varies from store to store. to my knowledge a lot of them were planning to do so, but were told by the higher ups they had to open in the morning.

and stay away from gamestop, you have a better chance of finding a 360 in a trash can than messing with gamestop.

Im willing to wait 5-6hrs in line but I dont think I would be able to. I also Have a BJs and Sams Club Membership. Anyone know about there in store releases. Ive only read about their online releases.
