are people seriously that eager for a system? Dang, are any of you waiting in line? I'll wait. A group of people waiting in line for ps3 for 4 days at a Best buy were sent away by the cops. For those of you who are going to try and get one on launch day; here is a guide for you:

Man there are sure a lot of people out there with no life. That at least to me borders on nuts but I guess to each their own.

Guess I'm too old to understand it. I've officially become my parents HAHA!

I saw at least 15 guys at Fry's, and if some don't know, Fry's is only selling by the bundle.

I went up to the guys and asked:

Me: All of you are waiting for PS3?
Them: Yea...duh
Me: You do know that Fry's is only selling by the bundle, like $1000+.
Some guy: WHAT? That's bullshit.
*Some guy leaves

HAHAHA, that was so funny and I'm pretty sure he has been there since last night at least.

Haha, that sounds fun. Ask them this question from Late Night, "How do you explain this to your imaginary girlfirend?". That starwars episode was fuckin hilarious.

this is stupid
people say it will sold out and you might have to wait till next year to get one haahaa rightttt. The system was suppose to come out last year but they found some glitch and realize that they didn't made enough so they postponed it for 2006 so they can fixs the bug and make enough so they won't have any shortage.

tell me about it!
a friend of mined that happens to be a General Manager for a video game store was able to get his hand on the X box (whe it was released) he sold it for twice the amount of Ebay , since he was able to purchase the product direct... for his "personal use"

hmm.. this is ridiculous.

I'll share my experience.

cops everywhere, helicopter in the sky. bean bag guns out, asp batons out, tasers out. i swear, it was ridiculous. there were about 300+ people in best buy's parking lot. i read the sign earlier in the day that was posted on best buy's window. it said ONLY 34 UNITS.

so everyone was bum rushing the line, this one little Asian kid gets pushed out of line. the cops grab him by the neck and threw him on the floor. they thought he was cutting the line! they beat him with asp batons, and then he gets arrested! innocent little Asian kid. Ive never hated cops so much.

so thats what happened today at best buy.

i live in fresno, ca btw

^^that article just explains that there will no longer be able to sell the preorder tickets. since they do not yet own the system. u can still sell the system if u own it.
