If you're reading this ... then you've survived. It was one crazy shopping extravaganza today and I saw some crazy stuff. People getting trampled, Xbox 360's being snatched up like candy, it was great! This will be my last Black Friday post so I thought we could all share our stories from the battlefield. Did you see a fist fight over a Nintendo Wii or a middle aged man clutching onto the last copy of Gears of War? Seriously, I love hearing about Black Friday horror stories or the madness that you experienced and I'm sure your fellow fanboys would too. Commence discussion and by all means include a link to your photographs. We all love blood and violence especially over Xbox products.
Tomorrow is Black Friday and everyone is going to be going crazy trying to find the best deals and sales. In the heat of this consumer battle there will be numerous parents looking to buy a gaming console for their darling children, but aren't sure which system to choose. Here is where I ask you fellow fanboy reader to help the gaming virgins, inform the uninformed, and tell them about the Xbox 360 and its great features. Tell everyone you meet YOUR opinion on the console war, what games are available for each, and what you think would best suit their needs. If you overhear a salesman giving incorrect information about any gaming console, I give you the permission to butt into their conversation and set the record straight. Tiz the time of year for the Xbox 360 community to grow, spread the word ... but be gentle.
It's that time of the year when consumers wait outside stores for hours on end to get the best holiday deals. Black Friday is the unofficial start of the holiday season, presents are purchased, kids begin to beg Santa for gifts, and a huge amount of money is spent. And what would Black Friday be without leaked ad scans weeks in advance? Word on the street is that Best Buy will be having a sweet $18.99 sale on a few Xbox 360 games including R* Games Presents: Table Tennis, Condemned, Amped 3, and NBA Live 06. So, if you feel like participating in the Black Friday ritual, make the holy trek to Best Buy and pick up a few games ... just be sure to bring a roll of Tums, because we all know the day after Thanksgiving wreaks havoc on the belly.
