The crazy thing was that most people got theirs. When I grabbed a 360 there was two entire pallets of them on the floor yet for new consoles the stores entire inventory was like four.
Perks of having a parent that worked on them. I was fortunate to have the PS3 and Xbox 360 gifted to me by my dad lol. They were from the first couple thousand off the assembly line. The 360 even came with a faceplate exclusive to the designer and engineering teams!
i miss this stage of life… no worries other than my halo 3 and rainbow six vegas rank. Living off of instant noodles and cheap energy drinks…. seems so long ago.
Those were the days! I also remember lining up all night for the PS4 and the Wii. Pissed I did it for the Wii cause I ended up hating it lol
I posted a picture from the PlayStation 2 launch yesterday so I figured I’d post a new one.
Back when getting an Xbox was first come first serve. Not what they did with the shitte launch. 2 years later and still can’t get and series X .
Got the radio station out and everything.
The 360 was my first console launch and it was a blast. I ended up doing the Wii launch again a year later. After that it was just preordering.
Microsoft has an excellent docu-series on Xbox and its [free](https://youtu.be/AJYsA1jXf60) on YouTube!
there’s no way that store had that many xbox units ._.
Not the same Playstation post’s vibes
Date and time?
Reminds me of my time working at GameStop and working all those midnight launches. Those were fun!

Shoutout to Microsoft for convincing me to go from gamer with gear, to not purchasing a console. Great Work!

Xbox 360 release? Or the biweekly graphics card drop at Best Buy?
I know everything is great and about convenience now but I’ll really miss this Era of gaming because it’s never coming back.
I just set mine up and am installing Modern Warfare to play it again.
