PS3 Craze.

**lakmflx** · 11-17-2006, 03:48 AM

Well i have to admit i was one of the ones who were waiting in line last night. I got to the local Wal-mart around 9pm last night and i was the 21st person in line. I thought for sure i would get one, then at about 9:45 pm the electronics person made an announcement that they only have 6 PS3's to sell i was like wtf. Naturally everyone was pissed off and asked well how do you guys decide which 6 people get them and they said well we had some people waiting in line since wednesday 5pm(which is just crazy)

Anyways after that i went home and decided to check ebay lol..These things were selling for 3-5k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the lowest price i saw last night was 1875 which is still 3 times the selling price. Too bad i couldnt get my hands on one, it would've made a nice little profit for me.

It was just people fucking around with that guys auction and pretty much screwed it up for him selling it. I'd be pissed if it were me.

True that! Someone in some state did a drive-by shooting(BB gun) on some people camping out for the PS3 and someone threw eggs at more campers at another store. The news said it was done by rival gamers.

Beats the hell out of me?? I can understand buying a few of them and Ebaying them for the profit, but damn $8k for one just to have is ridiculaous. You can have a descent used LS1 for that, and get more fun out of it.

Ok, someone explain to me why you would want a game console over a PC?
