Nine days until Sony’s PlayStation 3 launches in America, and lines are already forming. A CAG forumer went to Best Buy this morning and saw about 7 people waiting outside. He went inside and one of the workers told him that they had been there since Monday. He immediately pondered: “Do these people have no lives?”
Of course the life of the waiting-in-line-for-almost-two-weeks PS3 fans isn’t made easier by a bunch of people coming to Best Buy and making funny remarks like: “I hope you guys brought enough food!” Another one said, “Where is the line for PS4? Is it on the other side?” ![]()

I wonder what life would be like if you had almost two weeks to just wait and do nothing. Do they take a holiday for this, or are they unemployed, at least the latter would make some sense, they could sell their PS3 on eBay. But these seem like PS3 fanboys, and die-hard ones at that. Hopefully for them they won’t be disappointed on November 17.

And because those lines aren’t that interesting, we’ll add the two latest PS3 commercials for your viewing pleasure.
After the rubix cube it makes sense eggs follow…

The PS3 is the greatest! I was camped out at Best Buy and YES IT WAS WORTH IT. I will now pack up the 360 and put in the closet.

[…] While most have been playing X Box’s huge release Gears of War (next on my list to buy) or perhaps waiting on line to buy Playstation 3, I picked up the newest installment in the Tony Hawk series, Project 8. The past few to be honest haven’t been very innovative, they basically just added new worlds, new tricks and a couple small features here or there to keep the fans interested. The last installment did feature non-stop gameplay as all the levels combined into one massive world, Project 8 continues this but in a much more fluid experience. The last game had weird paths (where the game would be loading) between the levels, whereas the new game is absolutely seemless. […]

New Year Sales
New Year sucks. Christmas is over (well, actually that’s not such a a bad thing). You’ve run out of turkey recipes, and still have half a bird left. It’s starting to smell a bit, too. You can, if you wish, queue for hours in the freezing cold to…

[…] En cualquier caso, una duda que siempre habÃa existido sobre la PS3 puede considerarse disipada: Su elevado precio no ha asustado a los compradores. Desde que se supo que la PS3 serÃa mucho mas cara que la Xbox 360, habÃa existido el temor de que eso pudiera afectar a las ventas, pero parece claro que, como mÃnimo para los mas jugones, el precio no es problema. Queda ver que sucede ahora en el lanzamiento en Estados Unidos, que se producirá el próximo viernes 17 de Noviembre, lanzamiento para el que Sony afirma tener preparadas 400.000 unidades; en cualquier caso, la noticia aquà es que, según esta noticia, como mÃnimo desde el dÃa 8 de Noviembre hay formadas colas para comprar la PS3.
