I have heard that it could be on the site on the 29th instead of the 30th. I've also heard that Microsoft are only selling it for ONE day. So if its on the site on the 29th then the 29th is the only day you can order. So keep your eyes open on the 29th and 30th. If it is only up for ONE or while stocks last its best the order the kit as soon as you can or other wise you will have to wait till March 14th 2003.

Same here, going to be a loooooong night. Played Mech Assault just quickly and I really like it, just getting used to moving the torso in one way whilst moving in another, and I love the way everything can be destroyed.

I'll be up till late tonight too - so I'll be constantly watching my e-mail and checking xbox.com. ;-)
Got the credit card next to my bed here too so I'm armed and ready to pounce on the order form as soon as it comes through. ;-)

Excellent...

We have despatched your Tiscali Broadband Starter kit on 29/11/2002 and it is expected to be delivery between 8am and 7pm on 2/12/2002 by Parcel Force.

I've heard a lot of bad stuff about Tiscali but, apart from the 10 business day wait, which to be fair they say it can take up to 12 before you sign on, I can't fault them. Now to string 20 metres of RJ11 cable down the stairs, across the living room, around the door and into the porch....:)

Just got back from Nottingham, with Unreal and Mech Assault in tow :) Tried to get Moto GP as well, but Gamestation had ran out, apparently the guy behind the counter says it's suddenly selling again....wonder why ? :)

Anyway, I'm going to be on here and watching the Xbox site as it rolls over to the 30th at Midnight tonight, supposed to be at work in the morning at 8am, so guess I'll be zombiefied for that.....well worth it though !

Haven't had anything through about the test drive yet so I guess its an early rise for me tomorrow. ;-)

Don't worry mate, I'll be on there soon to kick those yank freaks square in the gonads. ;-)

Hmmmmmmmmmm, maybe I should lay off the yank freaks comment seeing as my other half is a yank. ;-))
Mind you, with the way she is, she'll probably agree with me on the comment anyway - shes always slating other Americans. ;-))

Don't know if this is relevant but The part of the site that lets you register your Xbox has started working - has been unavailable until tonight since at least the 4th when I got my Xbox.

I'm getting up early tomorrow to make sure the sods don't kick me to the kerb again. Plus I'm going to take a half day at work tomorrow with a fantasy dentist appointment.

If it doesn't happen tomorrow then I'll be up at the crack of dawn on Saturday. If by chance they decide to boot me aside again, I'll be grabbing numourous weapons and heading for Microsoft and that should end with me having the front page of the national papers on Monday.
