Ok..ok..ok I see it now. You're just trying to get me to renew my online sub so I can become once again......"Master Hostage Killer"!!! (ask Martin). Better yet I'll take the "Fight Club" and "King of the Hill" mod in Midship and 12 players. Now that was a hoot. Yes I have to admit I'm a "Suck-at-it-Halo Player".

That is a good deal as well. About 20 bucks less than retail. But I guess shipping makes it about even.

I can't believe anyone would have ever guessed you as anything but the 90lb weakling that you are Honestly you let your sub run out just so you would finally have an excuse not to get your ass handed to you by me in *insert one of a billion game titles here*

For real though I think of Nebraska Furniture Mart and the picture that comes to mind is some mom and pop furniture shop down the street that sells Lazy-Boy that just happened to think selling 360s would turn a quick profit. But I went to the website and the place does indeed look quite impressive.

Anyhow hopefully all of your 360 buying woes go away over the next few weeks..........

Well you think that now, but just wait till you are stranded way past the Alpha quadrant and you have a breach. You would be ecstatic to have a core right then.

Sorry for over reacting, yeah the name is misleading and of course everyone thinks it's Indians and Cowboys in the midwest.

All the while there are several at some of the most inconspicuous places. For all I know the "Hew Haw Motel" (yes there is one) 10 miles away may have them.

Wow - what a rollercoaster ride it has been.

As my finger hovered over the "Checkout" button on the Best Buy website (thanks for the heads-up, btw) ...I hesitated. I couldn't bring myself to do it. Once it was there in front of me, I cracked like a little bitch. It just felt like too much money without the "must-buy" games to back it up.

Honestly, World of Warcraft has dominated my gaming time lately. And I'm trying to finish my home theater, which is going to take a nice chunk of change. But I'm definitely going to purchase a 360 for that theater, so I can wait a few months - I should be able to walk into any store and pick one up then, right?
