GamingTrend OFFICIAL XBOX360 Request Thread [COMPLETED]

[Purge]

Now that the ground zero smoke has cleared I want to know whos still looking for a system? Here in Canada there doesn't seem to be as much of a shortage as in the States, and there are some of us GT'ers who would be willing to ship one for the cost (either from the States OR Canada). MS doesn't care about where you bought a Region 1 360, so you should be able to get extended warranties from MS directly once you have it. I want to keep this thread clean of chatter, so please adhere to the rules outlined below:

I think this thread has run its course. Unless anyone else is hunting for a 360, I think the mods should unsticky it and move on.

I suppose it will make an awesome template for the upcoming revolution and PS3 release dates though.

[warning]

No problem I'll unsticky it.  Glad it helped!
