Going by your review I'll take it at cost + £7.00 , you pay postage, the extra is for standing in Asda, pound an hour.

Not opening it up at work. How do you charge the batteries for the controller and do you get the play and charge kit with it ?

Spent 4 hours in a queue this morning with my brother in law (from 4am)

Got a core one for him (one of three spares at local game) and picked my pre-order up

Thought I'd lost my loaded game gift card just as I went to pay (while some lurchers were waiting to boost my order) but found it

Got FIFA, Call of Duty, and the wireless adaptor. All ready played some Live today on Fifa, not really touched Call of Duty yet

Its a great piece of kit, glad I pre-ordered in store

Few people got a bit shirty where we were at Game, could so easily of broke into fights...main thing is, my younger brother in law got one...I was more excited for him to get one than me

Happy 360'in

Got this from play today, proves there was no point in Pre-ordering, unless they only got seven consoles, when i spoke to the helpdesk 'it'll be by date ordered'....my ****

Dear Mark

Thank you for your email.

We are very sorry we have not yet been able to fulfil your order for the Xbox 360.

Unfortunately we have had a huge number of pre-orders for this item, several of which were placed during May. While your order has unfortunately not been covered by the first batch we received, you can be almost certain to receive one from the second shipment. Regrettably we do not know exactly when this will be.

Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused you and thank you for your patience and valued custom.


Kind regards

Play
