I hope it rains on them.


More early adopters just means more beta testers to get the kinks worked out if I want to buy one in a couple of years at half price. :cool:

[IB4OU2]

The fathers they had on news nine last night looked like homeless people. I couldnt imagine how they could afford a 600 dollar PSIII.

[fadada1]

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

Where is the line for the ColecoVision?

[Taxman71]

Sissies. There were 3 tents setup at BestBuy at Crossroads Monday at 6:00.

What are the odds that at least a few of these geeks get jacked by someone in the parking lot on their way out waving their PS3?

[Boomer.....]

$5700 (http://cgi.ebay.com/PLAYSTATION-3-PS3-PREMIUM-60GB-PRE-SALE-W-1-GAME_W0QQitemZ170048312883QQihZ007QQcategoryZ62054 QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

:eek:

[Pricetag]

I wonder if anyone will get duped into buying any empty boxes this time around?

[Boomer.....]

Of course!

[achiro]

You know whats stupid, these folks should have camped out to just do a pre-order. They probably would have only needed to be there a few hours early and guaranteed to get one the day they came out.:rolleyes:

You think they really have anything better to do with their time?

Did you hear about the dudes paying homeless people to wait in line and make the purchases?

[mdklatt]

Did you hear about the dudes paying homeless people to wait in line and make the purchases?

Are they planning on paying them more than what the PS3 is worth?

[sanantoniosooner]

I heard they are paying them $100 each for waiting in line and providing meals.

[Osce0la]

We saw people basically camping out INSIDE Wal Mart last night. I saw a group of people sitting in the floor, or in chairs in the electronics dept. - eating Chick-Fil-A and just hanging out. Had no idea what they were doing, then finally realized they were planning on sitting there until the PS3 went on sale...Camping out INSIDE Wal Mart :rolleyes:

[Petro-Sooner]

:D Thats funny.

Your Wal-Marts have Chick-Fil-A? The ones around here have crappy McDonald's. :(

[C&CDean]

People never cease to disappoint me.

These are the same people who watch Survivor, Lost, American Idol, and that gay dancing show. This is probably the only camping trip they've ever taken in their pathetic lives. They couldn't change a flat tire - but they can blow Voltron the Vulva Vixen into the next millenium.

Instead of ragging on musicians about their lyrics, Algore's bitch oughta be up at Congress bagging on the video game epidemic. Next to weed, video games are the most debilitating factor in a fat, lazy, apathetic, worthless America. And if you're one of those losers who smokes weed AND plays video games I've only got one thing to say. Kill yourself now before you become a financial burden on the rest of us.

[Vaevictis]

Easiest way to get someone to quit playing video games so much is to make them realize that if they had only worked those hours instead of played, they'd be a quarter of a million dollars richer.

... it worked for me anyway ;)

Agreed. Super Tecmo Bowl kept me from doing much of anything my last 2 years at OU.

[tulsaoilerfan]

We even have 10 of them waiting in line here at my local wal-mart; couldn't believe it when i saw it today.

[critical_phil]

i just dropped my daughter off at the gym right next to BestBuy.


starting to look like tent city now....

[proud gonzo]

why can people not wait a little while longer? I mean, they've gone this long without one of the darn things...

[Czar Soonerov]

Why not just freeze yourself until it comes out?

http://media.espace.ch/images/334755_wii_southpark.jpg

[VeeJay]

So if one is to ride through the Best Buy parking lot verrrrrrrry slowly around 6:30 AM, just as it's getting daylight, rolls down the window and starts shouting at the campers "Hey, you M-F'ers, you're all a bunch of panty waisted LOSERS. You bunch of flamin' HOMO'S!"

If they come after you, I reckon they lose their spot in line.

That would suck to be them.

[proud gonzo]

I'd love to see that

[royalfan5]

I hope no one camps out at the Nebraska Furniture Mart up here as they have decided to give their entire alloment of PS3's to charities to sell on EBAY. Actually I hope people camp out there because it would be kind of funny.

[RacerX]

There was a line in front of the circuit city and target @ Penn and Memorial.

Two things came to mind -
They're unattached losers

Triumph the dog telling the unborn in that one lady that he better get a good look coming out because that was probably the only ***** he was ever going to see.

[Frozen Sooner]

Anyone seen yermom tonight? ;)

[OUstud]

They better get more units out soon. Otherwise, my very belated birthday present might wind up being a President's Day gift.

[birddog]

supposedly they will have a million of them in stores by x-mas. my ps2 just bit the bullet but i'm in no rush to buy 3 til i peruse the game selection. hopefully they put together a twisted metal good enough to rival tm 2.

probably not though.

[soonerboomer93]

Anyone seen yermom tonight? ;)

he just posted on myspace

that means he made doleo wait in line

or maybe he sent doleo to scare everyone off, so then he can be first in line?

:twinkies:

For the record, I watch AI, but none of the other shows. I watched Survivor a couple of times during the first season, but didn't like it. I can change a tire, but how have no idea how to blow vulva vixen.;)

[Taxman71]

Called it.

1 Shot in Conn. Playstation Waiting Line

Associated Press

PUTNAM, Conn. (AP (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=The+Associated+Press&CATEGORY=COMPANY)) -- Two armed thugs tried to rob a line of people waiting to buy the new Playstation 3 (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Sony+PlayStation3&CATEGORY=PRODUCT) gaming console early Friday and shot one who refused to give up the money, authorities said.
The two confronted 15 to 20 people who were in line outside a Wal-Mart (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Wal-Mart+Stores%2c+Inc.&CATEGORY=COMPANY)Lt. J. Paul Vance (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=J.+Paul+Vance&CATEGORY=PERSON), a spokesman for the state police. The new Sony (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Sony+Corporation&CATEGORY=COMPANY) consoles are selling for around $500 to $600. store shortly after 3 a.m. and demanded money, said
"One of the patrons resisted. That patron was shot," Vance said.
He said the two gunmen fled and the victim was taken to University of Massachusetts (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=University+of+Massachusetts+Amherst&CATEGORY=ORGANIZATION) Medical Center in Worcester. There was no immediate word on the victim's condition.
Vance said police were searching for the suspects, both believed to be in their teens. He said one was wearing a ski mask and brandishing a handgun, and the other had what appeared to be a shotgun.
Short supplies of the PS3 (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Sony+PlayStation3&CATEGORY=PRODUCT) and strong demand led to lines of buyers, some waiting for days, outside stores across the country.
In Palmdale, Calif., authorities shut down a Super Wal-Mart (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Wal-Mart+Stores%2c+Inc.&CATEGORY=COMPANY) after some shoppers got rowdy late Wednesday. In West Bend, Wis., a 19-year-old man was injured when he ran into a pole racing with 50 others for one of 10 spots outside a Wal-Mart (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Wal-Mart+Stores%2c+Inc.&CATEGORY=COMPANY).
In Lexington, Ky., police were investigating a drive-by shooting that hit four people with BB pellets outside a Best Buy (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Best+Buy+Co.%2c+Inc.&CATEGORY=COMPANY) store, causing minor injuries, according to WKYT, whose own reporter was hit as she interviewed buyers in line.
A Best Buy (http://www.newsok.com/keysearch/?er=1&CANONICAL=Best+Buy+Co.%2c+Inc.&CATEGORY=COMPANY) in Boston, aware it had only 140 of the consoles, got smart - its employees gave out tickets to the first 140 people in line so everyone could go home.

[Beef]

:rcmad: NERD RIOTS!!!!!!!

[BeetDigger]

Ok, now this is funny:

[OUster]

I think I am getting to be the old guy that says "back in my day". But, Jiminy Christmas! "Gamer" riots?...! Gamer shows and magazines and interviews...in my head I hear the quarterback in "Revenge of the Nerds" when Takashi wins the tri-cycle race and the football players realized the nerds could get control of the Greek council "we'll be up to our ears in nerd ****..." The day has come, and I don't like it. I miss the old, non-PC order. I am going to go and pick on the CPA down the hall :mad:

[Beef]

Ok, now this is funny:
Silly nerd. I guess they don't know that poles are for strippers dancing on, not for running into.

[Beef]

I am going to go and pick on the CPA down the hall :mad:
I would watch out. Being a CPA is one of the most common covers for ninjas.

ACCOUNTANTS RULE!!!!!!!!

[BeetDigger]

Silly nerd. I guess they don't know that poles are for strippers dancing on, not for running into.

:les: "Hey, watch out for that..."

Clangggg


"...pole".

[OU4LIFE]

I am going to go and pick on the CPA down the hall :mad:

If his name is Herbert Kornfield, I'd just leave him alone.

He was trained by CPA1, fo shizzle.

[I_SMELL_FEAR]

[mdklatt]
