    I thought all the day one editions are sold out? If I can't sell it, I'll most likely give it to my little brother as a Xmas gift since he prefers Xbox over PS. I'm actually selling the Xbox for less than $100 profit. When you factor in taxes, I will make less than $60, that is, if I am able to sell it.

    No sales tax out here in Oregon! The Day One editions are all gone from everything I've been reading. I think once it's released the interest will raise. I think people don't realize that thing won't last long on the shelves. Heck, even the Wii U got swallowed up pretty quickly.

    I'm at the Microsoft Store right now and there are a ton of people that didn't pre-order but are waiting in line to get one. It won't be until a couple days where people will start paying a premium for it if there is a shortage.

    Holy crap, I am watching all these videos of the Xbone making these bone shattering noises when the disc is putting in.

    It's hilarious.

    I imagine these things will fly off the shelves once Titanfall gets released.

    That is the primary reason I didn't buy a next gen console at launch, no transcendent games like Halo-XBOX or Mario64-N64. I can wait.

    On craigslist out here in Oregon it appears there is just a gauntlet of XB1's going for $720, true, that's what they are asking for and not necessarily what they are getting but still. I think it will also vary with access as well.

    So depending on when I hit refresh on my browser I get different states for where my Xbox is. I think UPS's system is broken. Sometimes my xbox is in Portland, sometimes it's in California, and sometimes the tracking number doesn't work...

    Anyone getting really long install times? Reading on NeoGaf that some people are getting 1-3 hour install times for their games before they could even start playing.

    Im installing BF4 right now...after about 10-15 min, it was 40% complete and at the time, allowed me to play the campaign, but not multiplayer. Took about 30 minutes to fully install.

    Why the funk does it take so long to install a game?

    I just checked my order status at Amazonia and it says "Shipping Now" after being in "Preparing to Ship" status for a while before that. It still has a delivery estimate of today.

    What the hell does that mean? How long does it take the Amazonia peoples to ship something. Are there thousands of them in a long line handing the XBO to each other all the way to the shipping origination.

    Damn you Amazonia peoples!!!!! SERENITY NOW is my status!!!

    I hope you somehow get the game on time and get $50 off...you got screwed, hopefully good karma comes your way.

    Slept 3 hrs last night...and the last thing I wanted to do was go to sleep. Ugh, time to go to work.

    I also went 3-14 or something like that in my first game of bf4, lol I suck...so different than cod, it's almost too realistic feeling. The 60 fps is insane though, good stuff.
