    Default Waiting in line for the PS3

    I saw on TV a line of people wating in front of Best Buy for the PS3. Isn't that kind of insane to wait in line for a week before the release of a video game system? I mean seriously, in 6 months or so there will be PS3s all over the place. Any possible glitches will be worked out too!
    Makes me glad I waited a few months before getting my 360. Just walked into a store and bought it. I'll do the same with the Wii too!

    [sarcasm]Wait, you mean to tell me people are showing interest in a console other than the Wii? Sound the alarm! Break out the dogs! Nuke the cities. The world is collapsing! People can't like the PS3! 599 US dollars! Giant enemy crabs![/sarcasm]
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I wish I could camp out for something. I would bring a generator so i could plug in my Ps2 and stuff. That would be cool.
    It looks like the ground had a sex change.

    Anywho, congratulations for making the people seeking attention a thread. As a follow up, why not give a recovering alcoholic what my American colleagues call "malt liquor"?

    Someone apparently doesn't remember how long some people waited in line to see the Phantom Menace. It's hard for me to see a week as fanatical devotion anymore.

    I wouldn't camp out for anything like that.

    I've never been one to camp for anything. I'll just go pick one up in a few months after its release; if I have the money.

    I think that even though he mentioned the PS3 specifically, what he said was crazy was that people are waiting in line for the PS3 a week before it's release. Not that they want the PS3 instead of the Wii (even though that's completely blasphemous), but how long they're willing to stand in place.

    I don't have anything against the PS3 or Sony. I had my PS1 for years and I have and love my PS2 now. I'm just saying I think it's insane waiting in line a week in advance just to buy a console. Any console. I only mentioned the PS3 because I saw a news clip on TV.

    It would depend what the launch was too.
