Anyways did anyone check out the new edition of the 1UP Show with some shots of The Darkness and PS3 footage of John Woo's Strangehold?

There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Yeah Sony just officially announced the PS3 launch delay:
That's November for Japan by the way. The Nihon Keizai Shimbun has been wrong in the past though so hopefully we'll see some more confirmations later on tonight. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Also the more PS3 accessories and titles you preorder along with your system, the better chance of actually getting one. Either way I'm just glad I'm not participating in the madness. I was speaking idiomatically. |
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
FELIPE NO |
So technically you can have a listing for a PS3 up on eBay now as long as the auction ends after October 17th because then by the 30 day timeframe the PS3 will be available nationwide. BTW Did anyone else read Eurogamer's write up about the 'PS3 Online Interface'? http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=68677 There's some good stuff there and if Sony manages to pull it all off....Either way I like the option of being able to download PS1 and PS2 titles which would help with some backlogged or missed titles. Maybe this allow territories in Europe and so on to finally be able to experience Xenogears, Chrono Cross and even Parasite Eve without import fees and mod methods. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
For example my nearest EB store is only getting 8 units and all 8 were preordered so if I was one of the lucky 8 then I shouldn't have to worry. If you're really that paranoid about the small chances of lost or broken units then sure, go in as early as possible and pick it up but I wouldn't really see a need to do so. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
You'll be seeing lineups at the likes of Best Buy and Wal-Mart because they have no reserve system, that I know of, and they're only supposed to be getting a maximum of 10 units while EB/GameStop has a max of 16 depending on store location. There's no harm in going early though to pick up your system but then there should be no problem in going at 3pm either. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I imagine they will just because your average consumer won't know about the preorders which is surprising how fast that all happened. EB/GS didn't even have a time to announce it and all it took was a couple of message boards to spread the info like wildfire.
I'm trying to get our work to stock PS3 titles for rental. I'm not sure if Blockbuster is going to jump on the wagon just yet given they waited with the 360 so it'll give us the edge and it'll help for those who spent $600 on a machine but had nothing for a game. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
First US TV commercial...
http://www.gameklip.com/v/1690/ First aired during screenings of The Departed. Sony had some pretty good ad campaigns back for the PS1 and PS2 and for some reason I really dig this teaser. Not a whole lot is shown but it still does a good job of conveying the launch as a "big" event. Honestly, watching it has me wishing I could of preordered a unit too but I don't have $600 spare this Christmas especially if I'm going home for holidays. Most amazing jew boots |

Actually doesn't the whole PS3 preorder ordeal kick off for you folks up there in Canada tomorrow? What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Heh well congrats on securing a PS3, Inhert. I wouldn't worry about not getting one though especially after putting down $200CAD.
I did make sure though that the local video store is getting PS3 titles in for rental. That way when I do eventually get a PS3 it's good to know a store 10 minutes down the road will have titles available for rent. FELIPE NO |
flOw looks quite nice and seems like it'd be a nice tech demo for the new controller. Watching videos of the game is almost calming..

Is this the situation for both SKUs or will the $600 unit come with something better? Jam it back in, in the dark. |
