It'll be interesting to see, with only 1,000,000 consoles destined for the entire continent, whether all of the people making their pre-orders will even get them. Of course, that's all a part of Sony's "brilliant" sales strategy: Not that it matters. All of the first ones will break anyway. >_>

the hype the hype... it's like pre-ordering a harry potter book... ie not worth your time and effort. how many games will you be able to play on it anyway?

When it's released? Not many. None of the important ones certainly. *COUGH* Metal Gear Solid 4 *COUGH*

The only thing I'm currently concerned about in the computer gaming realm is the upcoming UK release of Final Fantasy XII.
Which is going to be So. Frikkin. Awesome.

Doesn't it sicken you when ticket touts do that? Because of your disgusting greed, some poor person who really wanted a ps3 and saved their hard earned cash for it will have to go without. you are money grubbing scum.

Let's not go crazy. >_> The Wii is:
a) cheaper b) more reliable
than the PS3, but it's a console for people who primarily play games at parties, or actually want/need physical exercise out of something that, personally, I play to relax. Plus for big RPG gamers like myself, the Wii is useless in any manner outside of Zelda.

I just told Robin about this, and he pointed out that a person who really wanted it would have pre-ordered it too, so technically Stu's not depriving anyone of anything...

If the consoles weren't horribly, horribly limited in availability, then yes. You would be right.
Lest we forget what happened in the US, where a single branch of a typical high street chain might take a dozen pre-orders but in the end only get 3 consoles delivered to them for the whole first week.
And if that FFXII thing is true, I am so doing that. I've lost faith in pre-ordering from Play.com ever since they faffed about with Disgaea 2.

The only thing I'm currently concerned about in the computer gaming realm is the upcoming UK release of Final Fantasy XII. I retract this statement for one reason only: There's a Europa Universalis III?! WHY WAS I NOT INFORMED SOONER?! >_< And this new 'Okami' game that's coming out on Thursday looks awesome too. What is up with this month?!

But in that case, Stu is only a small factor in true PS3 buyers not getting one...the vast majority of the blame lies with Sony itself. (I'm not supporting Stu's plan at all, just playing devil's advocate)

It was meant to be a satirical comment on the horrific revulsion with which most computer literate people seemed to regard it, despite it being perfectly functional and just not being entirely up to the specs required to play one or two recent games... okay it need more rams (and yes i also add the s on RAM for comedy effect not because i think you can pluralise it)
