It's kid pressure.
I.e Must get one for christmas that is fuling the loonacy. I'm perfectly happy to wait but try telling your average 10 year old who has whinged for the last 3 months that you can't get them an XBOX and all of a sudden £550 seems like a bargain. Have you got yours yet SJH- didn't you have it preordered.

Yeah, but from early October. I'm none too fussed, although it is funny having games shipped without anything to play them on.
If it comes next year, so be it! I'll read the manuals. Besides, right now, I've got more pressing matters at hand... as in, importing a Mira. I think a Mira is far more impressive than an X-Box, has infinitely better graphics and sound, and is extremely beautifully designed. Controls real well too, no problems with hands slipping on the grips. (I'm SO DEAD)

Oh a Mira there's a waiting list for one of those.
I hear they are tempramental and tend to overheat and that they also with a tendancy to smack you round the jaw if you push the wrong buttons.

Each Mira has a specific model and every one is unique. You could try importing a Mira from Malaysia, but it's not guaranteed to have the same shape or specification.

OK, having checked "Mira" in google image search, chances of a "Mira" being cracking are pretty damn good. So, there you go. A mark of quality!

LOL, you really believe that? You do know they actually can't afford not to sell units before xmas?
@Trep - Samsie's talking about the Xbox. Unless he's become a twat, which I don't believe. He's an anatagonistic bastard but he's not heartless.

I know someone whose preordered one and because he is looking forward to it so much, he has been banned from a local gameshop for refusing to come off of the XBox 360 on display (he stay'd in after closing, y'see)
