Gamers Demand More XBox 360's

Widespread shortages of the Xbox 360 have left many gamers unable to secure a system. Many American electronics stores sold out of the coveted console on the first day it went on sale and many who queued overnight were left empty handed. My local store had only 36 Xbox 360's the night they went on sale!

Microsoft's next generation console officially went on sale at midnight on 22 November but many who queued to make sure of grabbing the gadget did not manage to buy one. Some stores were reportedly allocated less than fifty of the consoles. The websites of Amazon, Circuit City, Best Buy and Wal-Mart all listed the console as sold out. Microsoft is selling the Xbox 360 in two bundles but few gamers seemed happy to settle for the cheaper version of the unit that does not have a 20 GB hard drive.
