Default great phone call today

My sister called me today, "Hey Danny, I got you a ps3 today, dont worry about the money cause Mom already said she'd cover it"

Me "cool"



The problem... I dont own a TV, I guess I need to go to best buy now.

I picked up one today too, 60GB. I think i'll sell it so if anyone wants it it'll be 900 bucks before it goes on ebay. I like my 360 plus i already bought too much shit for it.

I had one for sale. Was kind of waiting it out to see if prices would move up. They've dropped a bit, but I decided to take it out and play it.

The graphics are incredible hooked up to my Samsung 42" DLP through HDMI.

I haven't decided whether or not I'm going to keep it yet though. $600 is pretty steep.

Last year I played my XBOX360 for a week and then sold it on ebay for $1200, so I'm not worried that its open.
