hope that ps3 preorder wasnt from gamestop/ebgames
 
those two companies are stating that they dont have enough consoles to meet all the pre-orders that they took.

if you do not get a console on launch day with your pre-order you will have to wait awhile and they will give you a free game or dvd(valued at 20 or less)

lmao at only shipping 150-200 thousand ps3's

With the way systems are set up now - theyll patch that shit in a heartbeat. The sad thing is - if this is anything like the PSP - itll make modding your system that much more difficult. The PS2 was great in that it was ONE piece of hardware that ran off (in a batch) one piece of software. So modding for it was easy - with the PSP and PS3 and the increased access to the internets, now were facing a situation where just slapping a chip in your machine and tossing an ISO image on the Hard Drive isnt going to work. . .

Dark days for PS3 piracy Im guessing.

Looks like I'm just going to hold off on this one and buy God of War 2 for the PS2, then play it for 2 weeks straight and shit my pants the entire way through.

Arkan 11-15-2006 02:29 AM

So whats the deal, this PS3 thing is supposed to be the shit of all game consoles? If i buy one, i want the best.

gg, Call Of Duty 3 for PS3 also has inconsistent frame rate problems.

tomxtr 11-16-2006 01:08 PM

I heard on the radio that people have been camping out since Tuesday at some stores. Also, heard that Best Buy is doing a lottery. So, show up at the last minute, get a number and if you're number is called, whore the chumps who've been waiting in line for days.

Be wary of Shawn. He'll pour sweet honey in your ear and by morning you'll be crying 'PS3! PS3! PS3!'

Bucknub 11-16-2006 03:12 PM

cod3 has the most realistic looking enviroments Ive ever seen, the fucking grass looks REAL, like there is REAL grass in my tv.

Chronic Diarrhea 11-16-2006 05:03 PM

I called my sister today before she went into work @ Circuit City (she's the store manager) and asked her how many fgts were camping out already. She said about 30 people with tents, just standing around not really doing anything. I'm like WTF it's cold today go home idiots.


They're going to be pissed when they find out the store only got 10 units shipped. biggrin:

Milla 11-16-2006 05:19 PM

Arkan 11-16-2006 06:22 PM

[quote="TGB!":1402b]People are selling their place in line on Craigslist.[/quote:1402b]

Just like the fags selling their spot on the list for the '07 Shelby on eBay.

Doctor Duffy 11-16-2006 06:34 PM

Paintballr 11-16-2006 08:24 PM

yeah ppl were way off in front of the store when i saw them at compusa today. There were only 5 of them @ around 3pm and i wanted to get in line sooo bad but i didnt have 600 bucks at the time. But yeah, i wouldve gotten in front of them if there wasn;t any sign saying "ps3 line forms here"

Doctor Duffy 11-16-2006 10:47 PM

What the fuck, if you can wait 5 years, why cant you wait another week and buy it like normal people do?

Chronic Diarrhea 11-16-2006 10:56 PM

[quote="Doctor Duffy":a85ad]What the fuck, if you can wait 5 years, why cant you wait another week and buy it like normal people do?[/quote:a85ad]

Because waitlists are starting to backlog up to 6 months already....you just can't walk into the store a few weeks later and buy one...all the stores will be out, and those that have a new shipment will already have them pre-ordered.

Doctor Duffy 11-16-2006 10:57 PM

I dunno, I just dont see any reason to own one now when there's no fucking games out... I'd rather wait, pay regular price, have a big selection of titles

Not that Im gonna get one

Chronic Diarrhea 11-16-2006 11:05 PM

[quote="Doctor Duffy":d7b91]I dunno, I just dont see any reason to own one now when there's no fucking games out[/quote:d7b91]

Exactly....there's like NOTHING good to play for this system. There's still very few good games to play for the 360 even after a year. I'm waiting for God of War II kthx.

Nyck 11-17-2006 07:31 AM

so this shit box is here and every ps3 on ebay with a few hours or less to go is selling for $2000+ I weep for society
