It seems like we're finally getting into primetime for new games coming out, of course this is all happening when my xbox just got the red ring of death. I have Rock Band 3 preordered and was thinking about preordering Fable 3.

My question is, should I cancel the preorders and buy the xbox slim or keep the preorders and buy a used xbox from gamestop? If it wasn't for the great games coming out I would probably wait until black friday for a console deal. Suggestions?
