I just got home from the Canes game - on the way home we passed by the Circuit City on Glenwood at Crabtree and I saw a bunch of tents out front.
You guys are nuts 11/15/2006 10:33:35 PM |

this just in, ps3 sucks.
hahaha, sony sucks! if you have a hdtv that only supports 480p/480i/1080i, you wont be able to play games (made in 720p) in hd on the ps3! wow that sucks!
Quote : | "As it turns out, gamers who own older HD sets that feature only 480i, 480p, and 1080i resolution input capabilities will have to settle for the display quality being downsized as the game boots in its 480p mode rather than upscaling the image from its more desirable 720p mode to the TV's 1080i." |
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/746/746282p1.html
thats how i inferred it...i did a quick read, tell me if i'm wrong? you'll have to play in 480p so sony is trying to make you buy a sony 720p hdtv.
im tired so maybe this doesnt make sense, read the article and you tell me.
microsoft makes every game have to be 720p/1080i compatible so another win for microsoft!11/16/2006 12:08:18 AM |

0 feedback bidder though, its a joke...ebay should keep people like this off of there...
for me, id say that if youre bidding you have to have like 15 feedback minimum or something. 11/16/2006 9:52:32 AM |

over hear and from what i know some dude hired about 100 homeless people and placed them at varoius locations around the area. paid them 200 a head to sit and wait for the PS3. here he started with 16, now only 4 they all got bought out. its hillarious. 11/16/2006 9:20:13 PM |

so if bestbuy doesnt let you there, whats to prevent someone from showing up at 11:55 and sprinting to front doors? 11/16/2006 10:19:45 PM |
Gøldengirl All American 3613 Posts user info edit post |
everyone is lined up in chairs in front of the doors. and i would say about 30 people would prevent anyone from "sprinting" to the doors, not to mention, i know the manager and he wouldn't let that fly. we have been waiting over 24+ hours now. 11/16/2006 10:23:01 PM |

People should have just done there research and gotten preorders if they wanted PS3's so bad or to sell. I spent all of 45 minutes and I am getting 3 myself. If my friends would have gotten out of class when I called we would have had more. With that said.... goodluck to everyone at bestbuy and if you camped out I really hope u get 1 because you deserve it. 11/16/2006 10:45:23 PM |

the schemer may not have even gotten all 4, because the manager knows he was basically a dealer. I left b/c i was too tired. But I hope he didn't get it. 11/17/2006 9:27:28 AM |

MrNiceGuy7 All American 1770 Posts user info edit post |
^^agreed. but i've gone through and looked at the bids the people have done, and their feedback. but you're right, i'm sure they rigged all their accounts and their previous purchases, not to mention teh feedback just to inflate the ps3 prices. so crafty...i bet they also framed OJ.

I ended up with a 20gb so Im going to sell it and buy the 60gb when I can. Is it better to sell now when the market is hot? or wait until all the systems have sold on ebay and then post mine? I figure the desperate ones will wait till the last minute and possibly pay more. But if sony manages to replenish stock pretty quickly, the demand will drop.
