Re: The PS3 Is Here.

I like how there are people in the Wii thread talking about actually playing the Wii, while it looks like no one on here got a PS3.

im guessing he ACUTUALLY uses the last one

Kinda like how you ACTUALLY used the edit button.

PS I have a friend that bought the PS3 and I hear he's fairly pleased with it, but he still doesn't think it was worth the $600.

Hahaha, yes. I started laughing when I came into this thread. So, did any of you actually get a PS3?

Confirmed suckage on launch numbers.

Nov. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Sony Corp. may have missed its goal of having 400,000 PlayStation 3 consoles in U.S. stores for the video-game player's Nov. 17 debut, analysts said.

More than half the 150 stores checked by Kaufman Bros. said they wouldn't have enough units to cover preorders, according to a Nov. 16 research note by retail analyst SooAnn Roberts. She predicts Sony will ship no more than 200,000 units to the U.S. this year.

Savner said in a Nov. 7 report that Sony would miss its target. Gikas said in a Nov. 16 note that he expected 200,000 PlayStation 3s available at the U.S. launch and 400,000 by year- end.

You know how many Sony said they'd have by year's end?

1.2 million.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

I don't understand how this is going to work. All I hear is people want to buy the PS3 and sell it on EBay, but I never hear of people say, "I want to buy the PS3 to play."

How are we going to sell the PS3 if no one wants to play them. =[

I never really understood that too.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

People will just be selling PS3s to each other until the system ships more.

PS. I am seriously considering getting a job at Gamestop to catch the next shipment.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

So no one person will posses a system until there are more in the country, and this money will just float around until its back in the right hands.

Yup.

Yup.

That was the sarcastic joke I was making.

Yup.

PS. Question marks go at the end of rhetorical questions too.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Until of course one person has them all. When good games actually come out, he'll have a monopoly over them. Sony can't do anything about it because they can't make that many that fast.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

"Sony Computer Entertainment America couldn't be more pleased with the response we have seen from consumers since the launch of PLAYSTATION 3 on Friday. This truly demonstrates the power of the PlayStation brand and further validates our belief that consumers see real value in an entertainment system that will define the next decade of digital entertainment. At this point, we are focused on getting as many new PS3s to the North American market as possible for the holidays, including airlifting systems to the territory on a constant basis. With PS3 manufacturing now running smoothly and product being aired in weekly, we're focused on our goal of shipping a million units to retail by the end of the calendar year. Due to the immediate nature of these shipments, we will not be providing weekly updates on North American supplies."

No, morons. You didn't SELL people what they wanted. You GAVE people a chance to make money RESELLING it to other people who do somewhat.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Think about it Squeek, if there is a market for $1500 PS3s then SOMEONE wants them very, very badly.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

I honestly can't imagine why, but if people enjoy spending thousands of dollars for an oversized paperweight, then more power to them.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Wahoo. It's hereee.

I personally think that the only reason why it looks big is because it's a little more curved than the ps2, and it comes out in the front more... if you look at it hard enough you can tell it doesn't seem that large. Looks really nice though.
