I woke up around 10o'clock and took a shower, glancing over at the calendar it said Monday November 21st and boy was I happy. I knew I would have my hands on the Xbox 360 by tomorrow, especially when I knew I was on the first shipping. So I got a humongous bowl of cereal and watched some Comedy Central.
Around 12:30 I received a phone call from EBgames. He was calling to tell me that my pre-order got canceled, man was I pissed. He also told me I have a better chance of going to Wal-Mart at midnight and picking it up right there.
After the phone call I dialed a few friends up and told them my pre-order got canceled and rushed to EBgames and got my 50 bucks back. And to my surprise a few of the pre-orders were canceled also.
After that it was a matter of time to wait till midnight, I got there by 9:30 and there was 40-50 people there. At 11:30 the Wal-Mart people gave tickets out to only 25 people, the rest was for core users. I was the 30th person in line and my mom was like "Oh crap... they ran out of the premium packages..."
So the next day I ran over to Best Buy and they were selling tickets to 50 people, 30 to the premiums and 20 to the core. They were all sold out by the time they got to us.
So I still don't know if I am going to get an Xbox 360 for Christmas...
