i get mine wednesday for my birthday,but on a serious note i think most shops now such as game,hmv etc are getting them in everyother week but there the expensive bundle deals that i have seen.think someone mentioned german ebay or german amazon ??,and yes asda get about 2 deliveries a week well the store where i work at does, ring your local asda at around 10am daily and ask if they are due to get any in.

If you plan on buying the games on offer it might not be a bad deal to be honest.

Ok, so I might have managed to get my hands on two of these consoles last night. Might see how much it can fetch on ebay if it goes through ok. Should be in the store for me on the 3rd of December.
