I don't think it's that. So much as it's the principle that "Hey we are giving people who have been members for 10 years a free console! But not EVERYONE who has been for 10 years! it's random! derrp herr"
If Microsoft sold this console for the normal price, $400 or so, I would totally buy it. Not gonna pay thousands on eBay though. Congratulations to everyone that receives one. Maybe somebody on this forum will get one! Here's hoping!
hopefully not because that means only the hardcore or rich collectors can get there hands on them X_X i have never had that kind of money so if it sells for that kind of money i doubt i will ever see one in person i have never payed more then $650 for a console and i don't plan too XD
I like the look, but anything above a couple hundred is simply a ripoff. So I'll probably just grab a similar looking aftermarket case once/if they become available.
