xbox 360 core system today

I got a call from HMV on wednesday to let me know that they had a 360 core system with my name on it if I wanted it. I had to think about that (for about 2 seconds) and went ahead and reserved it.

The surprising thing for me was that I had been allocated one at all as I only reserved it about a month ago. At that time there were reports all over the web that most places had stopped taking preorders early September.

So, I’ll be dropping a few quid this afternoon on the core system, a headset and a memory card. I’ll think about the harddrive, wireless controller and all that in the new year I think.

Games wise, PGR3 and Perfect Dark are my top choices. King Kong has been getting some very good reviews too …

Update this evening on first impressions (assuming it doesnt get given away to someone else before I pick it up of course).
