Took up all of the reserved seats at like every place I went to when I got off of work today for the PS3!:cry:

I went to two Wal-marts, two Game Stops, Sears, and a few other places.

The PS3's were all reserved in advance at the game stops. They said that they wouldn't even be getting in nearly as many PS3's as the reserve tickets they sold. I bet some poor saps that bought some PS3's for 3500.00 on ebay are gonna be pissed when they hear the news tonight!

The Wal-Marts had a bunch of dead-beats camping out in the "get your PS3 guaranteed" spots since a couple days ago. And the other places were the same story :(.

Good side of the story is... I got tomorrow off work!

Oh yeah? I work at Best Buy. it is 12:30 AM of Friday, November 17th.

At 5:00 PM on Wednesday, November 15th, people began pitching tents in front of the store.

As of 2 hours ago, there were about 15 pitched tents, 40+ cars in the parking lot, and a line wrapping around the side of the building.

Ab-so-lute Crazyness. :)

I can't wait until the day after Thanksgiving. I am scheduled to come in at 2:45AM to keep the 200+ people in a straight line from the front, to the wrapping around the side of the building, across the HUGE parking lot to the parking lot of the Movie Theatre...all, just a long line of people waiting...

Lol, the only reason I'm so pissed for not being able to get one is because IF I did get one, I'd just take several pics of it in the unopend box, then prep it for shipping to send to the highest bidder on ebay ;). I'll get my PS3 once all of the bugs are worked out of the first ones. And trust me, there's gonna be issues with them, the ps2 had some major issues when it was first launched, and I'd say the new one will too.

These damn things are selling for 3500.00 bucks on ebay!! Think about that, you pay 680.00 for a ps3, then sell it for AT LEAST 2000.00. Does that sound like a good reason to camp out and get one? It does to me ;).

Pshh, I'll camp out my foot in their ass.

It's flippin' BELOW freezing out there...

with a wind chill at like 5 degrees.

I'll pass.

**EDIT**

Maaaaan, If I wasn't so tired right now....I would SOOOOOOO warm up the Supra, and head out there..and be real quiet (I have no exhaust, Open ported elbow, and that's it), and be as quiet as possible coming up, and when I get to the parking lot, just BUST it WOT, fly by all the tents and blow it off and give everybody there heartattacks!

....~yaaaay~!!! ;)

^Yeah I think it's mostly a guy thing with the PS3. I was looking at some of the ppl sitting in the caged in area for the "guaranteed to get a PS3" section at wal-mart. This one dude has his girlfriend there with him. Needless to say she didn't look too thrilled to be sitting there for like 24 hours ;).
