as console gamers would know, PS3's gonna be released on the 17th this month. big companies don't have it since people have already preordered them. i'm wondering if you guys who work in best buy, circuit city etc would be able to hook me up. i want 3 consoles.

definitely can't wait to get one. but i'm not crazy enough to camp out all night and spend 600 bucks on opening day. i'ma wait till the prices drop... or till mgs4 comes out.

exactly what is the point of having a 20gb or 60gb harddrive in there? why do you need a harddrive?

Camp? I bet not, just go around swinging a bat, talking to yourself and mocking the wall and people will think that your crazy and let you be the first to get a PS3!

hard drive to save games, second off NO ONE will hold more than 1 system per customer. Ive got my friend who works at gamestop and even there certain employees have trouble even reserving one for themselves, check Bestbuy/walmart Walmrt will get 18 per store and best buy 26. Best of luck dude, im not wasting my money on the wii.

you probably won't get one, even if you do, be prepared to spend at least a grand for it.

$1200 and you can buy one right now! lol.

i'll be happily walking by all the campers with my Wii, hopefully i'll be playing it while people are still waiting in line.

heh...PS2 was all the rage 5 years ago, and 5 years from now there will be a sicker PS4, lol...

Just found out the other day that the buyer of my old car destroyed the clutch (which explains why it has been in the same parking spot for two months now) and he's not fixing it because he's saving his money for a PS3. My poor old car. Oh well.

PS3 unlike Xbox 360, is a huge step up from it's previous versions. look up the specs and ya'll understand. wink.gif

shin, you saw the game play videos of Gears of War. the 360 is a HUGE step forward from its previous version.
i know most people like one or the other, but when all is said and done, the 2 consoles will have be able to do pretty similar graphics in their games. it just comes down to whos games you like better.

the launch line up of games for this xmas sucks on the ps3. nothing really good coming out. thats why i think its worth it to wait a year or so before buying one, so that the price might drop and you might get some games worth playing.

Metal Gear Solid 4. The last game of probably the best series of games ever made.

Oh and Art hit it on the head. It all depends on the developer and 3rd party support for graphic quality. And btw, you cannot judge Gears untill you have seen it in action and beatin' it. It is gorgeous.

Ya, they were some of the very few games that actually were. The DS on the other hand, has so many fun and addicting games.

PS3 not even out in the UK til at least March 2007

Missing the christmas frenzy.

XBOX will rule the roost this christmas in the UK. Sony are losing alot of money by holding back the launch.


It really annoys me that they don't just launch worldwide at the same time. Japan has had it for a while now, you guys get it this month and we have to wait another 6 months???

Where is the logic?

They complain about people importing them and have taken 1 website to court over PSP importing but they still defer launch in the UK for long after the rest of the world.

I just got an XBOX 360 last night. At Wal*Mart, it's 399.82, bundled with Burnout: Revenge. Can't beat that. I also picked up Gears of War, and I will be selling my PS2, and getting a couple of other games. smile.gif.

They had a PS3 there on display, btw. That thing is HUGE.
