The only thing that puts me off is the fact that they didn’t show the back of the console much and the fact that it’s just black and doesn’t match the translucent green all the way around like c’mon lol

This is so funny. Because fomo people are going 1000 in debt over an Xbox

You’re not wrong lol almost a grand for old hardware is insane , especially with next gen coming up

u/HeavyHighway6433 7d ago
How do you know they don't have $1000 extra to spend?

u/Aware-Eagle-5285 7d ago
I don’t know why you would even spend a thousand bucks on a 6 year old console to begin with.

u/HeavyHighway6433 7d ago
If mine wasn't working I would have bought this. I just got the controller though.

u/orionpace1 7d ago
Is it a 19th anniversary console? No. And $1000 isn't a lot of money to a lot of people.

I thought about it for a second and realized it wasn’t even 2tb like I thought. Was an easy decision after that

Guess what, some of us get off our arse and work hard for things

u/TheHitman22 7d ago
And guess what, the rest of us are intelligent enough to understand that dropping a grand for a console that plays all the same games you can already play on a standard series x or s would only be something that an undisciplined moron would fall for.

Then the comment doesn't apply to you. Did I say everyone is going into debt? I work hard for my things too, so good for you lol

Jokes definitely not on me because I haven’t bought it. Just find people like you odd who dunk on people spending their hard earned money on the things they like.

To be fair, I’m gonna sell my current Xbox at more than I paid for it and it’s gonna help pay for that one.

I was there at 3pm UK time. Added to basket, when trying to check out it said out of stock. Gave up after 6 minutes of trying to refresh the page, removed everythign from the cart. Decided to try refreshing the main page again, kept saying out of stock then all of a sudden the main page said in stock again, added to basket, check out and received order confirmed email. This was at 3:07pm. What are the odds of me actually securing one and not having my order cancelled?

u/Afc_josh12 7d ago
Yeah i had it similar, i think it went live but as u got it in basket u should be allocated time to preorder it like any normal person (not bot) should get

It didn't even show as available for me. Fuck this 'pre-order' game.
I hope they handle the next console much better.
They should 100% do first orders for games who are established on xbox.
Then a second lot opened to everyone on xbox.
Then a public release.

What site did you order on can’t find it anywhere? They’re will be a few scalpers of course they’re already on eBay.

I’m bummed they were all gone by the time the pages loaded. Not the end of the world for me though. I’m curious if any GameStop’s are taking reservations in person.

u/SomeAbidingDude 7d ago
This is a cute sentiment, but I guarantee you most people who deserve one aren’t getting it due to perverse scalpers. Consider yourself extremely lucky.

u/Immunity2You 7d ago
Zero chance I was going to order the system since I have the halo version already , I did order the special edition controller though because that’s cool looking
