I saw like 20 clowns camping out with tents 2 days ago in front of my Best Buy. How pathetic.

Some guys got the bright idea to rob the line of people camping in front of a best buy in connecticut. One guy refused to hand over his $600 so they shot him. rofl.

Even if you make $2000 on Ebay, if you had to camp for 36+ hours, it's not that great of an hourly wage.

Police in Ohio are having to escort customers (that bought PS3's) to their car so they don't get robbed.

$55 an hour isn't THAT bad...
*EDIT* Actually...I wasn't counting the cost of the system so nevermind.

Apparently there are only 300-400k PS3s for N. America and something like 1 million Wii.

None of ps3's launch titles are super exciting to me. Zelda is the only Wii launch title that has me salivating.

Yeah really. Ps1 had a dismal launch. Battle Arena Tohshinden and Mortal Kombat Trilogy. PS2 had an ok launch but none of the games are nearly as good as some of the later games.
