Tons of people are lining up for something they won't get. That's just awesome.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

I hope none of the idiots that waited get a ps3. Maybe they would then learn not to do stupid crap like this.

PlayStation 3 sells for $9,100
A PlayStation 3 system sold on EBay at about 1 p.m. eastern this afternoon for $2,861.53. A "completed item" record also shows many other systems have already been sold, including one a week ago for $9,100 with 42 bids. That price did, however, include free shipping.
As many as 2,200 Sony PlayStations were listed for sale on EBay Thursday afternoon, despite efforts to restrict what has become a free-for-all to cash in on preordered units and long waits at electronics stores for the game consoles which go on sale at midnight.

I hate the way that people start selling the consoles on ebay and ruin it for the people who REALLY want it...

The gaming market is huge and tough luck for those who didn't get one and have to pay 2-3x more than retail if they want it that bad; I feel no sympathy.

Now lets see how many I can get my hands on when the 17th rolls along LOL

Here we are talking about how precious these things are, while no doubt, somewhere in the US, someone is taking a PS3 apart or smashing it with a hammer just to gain internet fame.

Bastards.

You have no idea how red faced I got just now... I am not even a PS3 fan boy, but the mean spirit, and low brow wastefulness of that concept is beyond me...

It doesn't bother nor surprise me that people are waiting in line for it, people do that when they're excited about something. But, assuming they're gamers and not random idiots who came due to the commercials (because if those ghastly things attracted them, they need mental help), they know full well that they're not going to get one, especially not by waiting in line. And that's where the stupidity lies, they really ought to know better

Huh? Signature? What's going on with that signature?
