I would just go get an arcade NOW, regardless of the games. With R/$ exchange rate the prices are only going to go up by the time the next deal is out.

Good luck with getting anything from CNA buddy. They didn't have GTA:IV in stock for several months. They then told me no CNA in the country has GTA:IV in stock. So I went next door to BT Games and bought a copy.

i went this weekend and spoke to a manager at branch and he said he personally order it for me, if that means anything....

The manager might order it for you but how long will the manager wait for the xbox? there is only so much he can do but it is up to the HQ of CNA to get the stock to him so it kinda means nothing. cos most companies work that the manager has to order the stock so it means nothing that he will personally order it for you.

Hmm, I think they're supposed to be filtering into the market at the moment, ask the guy to order it for you, but don't just sit back and wait, phone him every day to make sure he is actually putting it through.

But as was said, watch the Rand and the prices, there is a chance they may go up.

I wish you the best of luck and have no intention of dissuading you from purchasing an XBox 360. Just warning you about CNA. I really hope you get it and the games you are looking for, welcome to the club!

they stock it at the new prices

also, i saw a scanned version of a CNA brochure advertising the new prices, but as you mention it can be quite hard getting CNA to get stock (i ended up buying the 60GB from Musica, 1 week before the prices dropped)
