A:AnswerThey arent the only ones that went early and it depends who you get the story from.
One is Walmart said screw it why wait then everyone else followed.
Another is Gamestop is reporting Sony said go ahead.

A:AnswerJust kept clicking the button on each page until got to next one. The wheel will spin and stop and keep trying until it goes to next page. At one point it said no longer avail to ship but i kept trying and it went through. Not sure about today though, got mine around 2am central.
A:AnswerWho knows. I randomly woke up at 2am. Got a best Buy email and was able to secure one then. Pretty lucky, but also a massively failed handle of preorders. no announcement of when they would go up, and then they randomly pop up at various hours throughout the night on various retailers. no notice. I had email signups on all of them. ONLY got one from best buy. meaning they sold out before emails even went out. At least XBOX tells us when they are coming ahead of time.
A:AnswerI believe it’s just different revisions of the internal motherboard design and maybe if I recall correctly a different heat sink design as well.
