    I am currently debating whether to purchase a system or just wait a year for the price to drop. If I bought the best package plus a game, with tax it would be nearly $500 which is quite a hefty fee for a console and a game no matter how good it is and looks and I am not really a hardcore gamer I just play sports games and usually only during the season. I am still thinking about it though...

    That's what I was wondering as well. I didn't want two racing games either except I didn't care about PGR: 3. "Realistic" racing games on a console are harder for me because I can't "feel" the car while it's driving. I prefer the more cartoonish ones like NFS.

    Well, apparently they don't know how to tell time at Circuit City as 2 est has passed and their not opening up the ordering of the consoles. I don't want to call in and get some baboon on the phone, either.

    Circuit City sucks donkey balls as well. They can't even activate their link on time as advertised. Their probably all gone now.

    Well, it does say "Web Only". Maybe they're just late, but not taking phone orders for the packages either. Don't give up just yet.
