OK guys, heres the Update, I have already got 4 people including me. 4 is the maximum for the camp out and revlikecrazy is the 4th as he pmed me and inlisted early. You guys should start a 2nd group and camp out at other stores. According to some of the PS3 forums that ive been too, there will be ALOT of people trying to do this same thing, so good luck. Plan to Scout the parking lot on the first week and Im camping out on the 14th - 17th November 10am. Its going to be Cold as hell, especially at night so bring some blankets.
you're going to camp out for 3 DAYS for this?!?!?!



holy crap.

i'll just wait till they go down to $300 in a year, and more blu-ray's are out. by then i should have the rest of my theatre set up for gaming bliss!

I'm with you on this one. I waited and I got a great deal on a new Xbox 360. I'd rather own a PS3, but I'm not going to wait 3 days to make $1000 profit. I bet I don't even have to wait 3 months to get a PS3 readily without any markups.

How much money are you going to lose by not going to work?

I personally am waiting until after the first of the year. After the Xbox fiasco with overheating isues, and now the 4 node processor Sony has developed has been experiencing the same problems, I'll wait for the bugs to be worked out. But good luck with your camp out. I just hope your new PS3 doesn't overheat on you. It'll take even longer for a replacement.

It's guaranteed not to overheat on him... he's never going to power it up.

My understanding is that he's just buying it to resell at a profit - which isn't very nice - but if people will pay it, what the hell.
