Amazon.com may be putting up 360 Core systems for $100. They're doing a poll between 4 different sales, and the 360 is in the lead by a huge margin.

There's no catch that I can see. Thinking about getting one.

Sale starts Thanksgiving Day (The 23rd, I believe?) at 11AM Pacific time.

There are a lot of companies that are dropping the price of the 360 for the holidays. It won't be permanent though so if you're looking to buy one it's the time.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Core systems don't come with a hard drive right? So I'd have to buy one or a memory card to save my games, eh.

Right. There is one company that dropped both bundles by $100.

OMG, $100?

It may mean I am going to starve for a couple of weeks, but I will be all over that if that is the case.

Shut the fuck up, $100 is a fucking steal. Tursday at 11 = no problem for me.

Coming up with $100 + S&H is.

I'm going to try to, I just don't have my hopes up... The one thing I'll have going for me is that I'll be at work, meaning I have access to a 100Mbs connection.

WTF kind of logic is that? It costs more than $100 and the S&H for a Prime membership.

I doubt it would have mattered, I was there on the second and the servers were fucked. Living on the east coast, I probably had no chance.

A lot of people had problems because the servers were hit pretty hard.

Blitz

Yeah I was there like 15 minutes before, constantly refreshing, and as soon as 2PM hit, I was fucked.
