So, who is getting the PS3 at launch?
I'm sure someone is getting one on launch day. I canceled my preorder when the price was released ,so I'll be waiting at least a year. I expect a full review on the PS3 and whatever games you play on it, whoever may be getting it.
Thanks

I'm going to pass on it for a year or two. I haven't seen any games that I really enjoy or that I think look good on the PS3 (in terms of gameplay, not graphics). I personally loathe the MGS series, so that's not a selling point.
It's just way too much money for my tastes, not to mention that I don't really want to support Blu-ray in this idiotic format war. I have a feeling history may repeat it itself. Just a feeling...

I love the MGS series as well as the Gran Turismo series but, with that said, neither of them are coming out right away so I think I can hold out until they do come out to consider it!

i have lived without a ps2 since my original died 32 days after buying it and sony told me to f off. i will be avoiding sony products for the most part, this is no exception. I do sometimes wish i could play some of the superior games but im usually busy enough with others that i just dont care.

If I do get one at launch it is going on Ebay. I can't pass up a $1000+ profit. I'm going to try Amazon. That is how I got the 360 on launch day it it was delivered the next morning. Hopefully Amazon will release some PS3s on the morning of release day, then it's a matter of being extremely lucky to get on before they sell out in a few minutes.

I'm not sure about them going for a crapload on Ebay. I sold my presell last week on there for 1200. Maybe launch day will be crazier?

That's still almost a $600 profit after fees. That can buy several 360 games along with the HD DVD addon and some HD DVDs.

I did. I had to fax them my name, rank, and serial number to get back in and make them money. They re-instated me a week or so ago.

I'd buy one at launch but I doubt I'll be lucky enough. I love camping, but not outside stinky as best buy stores. (also, I think if I was lucky enough I couldn't turn down $600+ profit)
That said the launch line-up looks very strong, though MY #1 anticipated title isn't launch (Motorstorm) so the weight will be easier to bear. | |
