Is it Gamestop or EBgames you work at Adida?.

A friend of mine who works at the local EBgames informed me that they had also recieved a huge amount of pre-orders and wern't even close to covering them with the shipment they were gonna recieve.

Good Game Microsoft :bigups:

fyi if you don't care about wireless or the head set get the core and if you do add to it for the core system it's about 25 bux more expecially if you wanted to get a 2nd controler in the first place ;)


15 bux for the head set
50 wired controller (what you would probably get any way for a 2nd controller)
60 wireless controler
