PS3 lines already forming in America

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…

That’s totally insane. Like the PS3 you get 2months later is going to be different than the one you got on day one.

Actually, the one you get 2 months later will be better than the one you get on day one.

Anyone own a 1st gen PS2? Not for long they didn’t.

yeah people should watch out for this, sometimes its good to have the first generation because that allows the most modding but like the xbox 360 the first version was terrible. Actually most first verions of a console have some kind of hardware flaw that’s later corrected without altering the specs (like different lens or better power supply).

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I’d feel sorry for them, facing ridicule for waiting so long for such an expensive toy, battling weather and hunger and so on… But I’ve been disgusted at all of Sony’s actions since the unveiling of the Wii. The only Sony product I still use is my PSP, and that’s only because I use it to browse the web wirelessly.

This is sad. Really sad. What people would do, just for a gaming console.

I prefer to wait before just flat-out buying the product.
