It will drop: it always does, usually before 6 months after its originally released, which is a good timespan for a good array of decent games to have arrived by.
For those of you with deep pockets that must have yours by xmas

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...Xbox%2B360.htm

Argos are doing their own bundle for £349 including two games. At this price I'd imagne they'll only attract the die hards and may well have quite a good stock for the 2nd Dec. Certainly as of yet there is not indication they will not be able to honour orders for the 2nd on their website.

Hope this helps; I hate seeing peepes dissapointed at Xmas.

I haven't bought a game from the highstreet for years. Always get them from somewhere like gameplay these days. Much cheaper...

They said all this crap before the PSP shipped and I still walked into HMV 3 days after launch and got one off the shelf...

Haven't pre-ordered my 360, but a new HMV has just opened locally and I asked about pre-ordering, lad behind till said that they opened too late to get any pre-orders in but he said that ALL shops would be getting some in to go to on general sale.

I preordered from play on the May 30th when it was priced at £400!!!!, i also received an e-mail telling me that there was going to be a limited number.

So i emailed them back telling them well it better be a first come first served basis, as i'm sure i must be up there on their list.
