DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 nope, amazon didn't even get any. I tired to camp out over night, and as soon as i went to bed in the earily hours of this morning they all went on sale at places like KBtoys.com and Sonystyle.com. pisses me off.

Strider Hiryu 2,704 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 I was going to go camp out at Best Buy but I said screw it. Had to work this morning and thats a little more important. I'll just end up getting one next year when they have more 60 gigs on the market. Plus you know over half the bastards that were in line to get one are going to put them on eBay for like $2000. I really hate people like that, getting something that all they want to do is sell it while those of us who want it can't get it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really hate people like that, getting something that all they want to do is sell it while those of us who want it can't get it. Yeah, they had a news report about that last night. Most of the people they interviewed were going to sell it online. You know, you'd think the manufacturers would realize this and make more. After all, they're losing money that way. If they'd just make more and release more systems, there wouldn't be near as many scalpers making money off it. Quote Yesterday was the deadline for all complaints!

aqu 1,844 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 I don't really see the point of camping out for the PS3 when there aren't any good games out for it. I am thinking of getting an 360 because Amazon is selling them for $100 next week. I really want to play Dead Rising, Gears of War, and Call of Duty 3.

Strider Hiryu 2,704 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 Dude, you do know MSG: Crossfire was a launch title right? That is so worth a PS3 (imo). That and Resistance looks like a sweet ass game. Meh, I'll probably head the same route and buy a 360. Really want to get my hands on Mobile Ops when it's released and get a couple of games I like for the system (Enchanted Arms, Perfect Dark Zero, etc).

Its that much funnier because its true! hahah, sad world... sad world.... About people camping out for PS3s I was playing Socom3 (ps2) and some guy was talking about he and his freands were buying 5 and selling on ebay. I find that anoying for those who want to buy one for themselves and not rip other people off. Also teh guy who wanted to play Call of Duty three, its onm Ps2 too, I didn't try it yet but man do I want too I am not going to buy a ps3 for a while, I am freakin poor anyways my ps2 suits me well I am saving up to buy Socom: combined assault.

Yes Hellcat they've been going on eBay for $2000 starting bids, I've been keeping track. Hell one sold for $3100 on Thursday night before the PS3 even hit the market.

Hell_Cat_18 1,359 Report post Posted November 18, 2006 Damn! Okay I can understand maybe paying a couple hundred extra, but $3100? That just screams "I have a gaming problem". Quote [sIGPIC]What's wrong, cat eat your tounge?[/sIGPIC] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smiley.rp Report post Posted November 18, 2006 LOL, true. If some people want to go ahead and waste that much money just to have something sooner is kinda lame. Sure I want the PS3 but I'm not going to spend like 3000$ on it. Hell, I can't even afford a PS1 Hehe my financial state is left to be desired of.....

DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted November 18, 2006 If you have time and dedication they are still doing it at sonystyle.com Sony is smart and they are not allowing tens of thousands of people to crash their site's store by trying to buy them. You just have to press the "put in cart" button over and over again until it appears. Its really random, I went there about 20-40 times and finally hit gold at 1:30am. You also have to type your info very fast. Amazon is rumored to sell them close to midnight tonight, they haven't sold any yet. Screw EBay sellers. I will take some pics I gotta go to gamestop and use my store credit to get Resistance and an extra controller. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON!
