Re: XBox360 HD-DVD sold out
Well, so much for the notion that no one buys add-ons.

Not if your mind is focussed on "format war". 
But if you are a consumer who planned to buy one - you know now that it may take some time before it arrives in your home.

Re: XBox360 HD-DVD sold out
First in line at my gamestop to order one!!
Should be there tomorrow, or Wednesday, with my free HD-DVD!
Now I just need to find a VGA adapter and I'm all set! Bring on the High Def revolution! (V for Vendetta that is... )

Wouldn't anyone looking to buy one find that out anyway? The article/post doesn't concern availablity, but rather "demand". |

I quess the same could be said for the pre-sales of the PS3. We still have no idea how many will actually ship.

Just what I want, inflated numbers from Sony. And the total pre-sales added up to what, 30 or 40 thousand at the high end with no gaurantee that they will be delivered on the release day. As far as numbers from Sony, they have already stated cutting back on those.

Re: XBox360 HD-DVD sold out
numbers from all the companies have been cut back. that's the way of the world. but we don't have any idea how many of these add-ons were made available, or were planed to be available. 10? 10,000? , 10,000,000? Nobody seems to know.
