I went to gamestop to sell my old games and get a new one. I read alot of cool things about black so I looked and couldn't find it. asked the sales guy and he said yup we are out...hmm could you order me a copy....he said nope you can order any xbox games???? WHAT THE $%^ does that mean you can't buy black or even madden 07 for the box??? _________________ The mighty V6 Passat came to chew bubble gum and kick%^* and shes all out of bubble gum!

That's strange! You can probably reserve a copy of the new Madden when it comes out, but I am guessing they will not order backstock. They are probably afraid someone won't pick it up and they will get stuck with it...still though, very strange.
There are lots of Gamestops around, just try another one that is close to you...or EBGames for that matter. EBGames and Gamestop are pretty much the same company, but maybe one of the other stores will still have it in stock, or even a used one. _________________ Xbox 1.4

If they don't have it and won't order it, not much we really can do for you man, we're not magical or anything, we just help with xbox modding and such. I would think they would have copies as it is a popular pretty new game, not sure why they don't. _________________

Nah from what I can tell they are still being made, just most of the time, a game has a "production run" anyways and once they make so many games, they see how it sells then they have to order a new batch, you may just be in the middle of a batch ordering process, where they sold more than they thought but haven't ordered yet. I'd probably try to spend the money on something else and just buy from a different source, ebay might be a good place for cheap games. _________________
