Here are some ridiculous stories from the PS3 battlefield.

- John Edwards, John Kerry's lackey in 2004, who criticises Wal-Mart for unfair treament of their employees, had a staffer attempt to cut in line to get a PS3 (http://www.revolution.joystiq.com/2006/11/17/anti-wal-mart-senator-tries-to-get-ps3-from-wal-mart/). Edwards denies responsibility. Wal Mart is accusing Edwards of trying to jump to the front of the line "while the rest of America's working families are waiting patiently." Nice going hypocrite.

- Guy runs into pole (http://www.themilwaukeechannel.com/video/10339676/index.html) and dislocates his jaw after an assistant manager at Wal-Mart, who had only 10 PS3s with 50 customers in line, put out ten chairs (http://www.todaystmj4.com/_content/news/topstories/story_5432.asp) and asked them to sit in them. You can just imagine the horror that ensued.

- Guy gets shot (http://www.courant.com/news/local/hc-putnam-shooting-1117,0,3336745.story?coll=hc-headlines-home) after thief tries to jack his PS3 money. At least he wasn't a spineless wimp like most nerds.

- PS3s that cost more than your parents' house (http://search.ebay.com/ps3_W0QQfromZR8QQfsooZ2QQfsopZ3QQsbrsrtZdQQsubmits earchZSearch).

- Sony losing money on each PS3 (http://www.gamespot.com/news/6161925.html) sold. Riiight.

dont really see the rush for a ps3.all hese ppl doin is buying it to show on them friends weh nuh have it lol.dont see the need to get 1 as yet seeing that the good games 4 it not going to come out until late 2007 an 2008.when the final fantasy comes out 4 it then il think about getting a ps3.i have enuf games on ma hand to last mi till that time.dont see y ppl killin them selves when eventually there is goin to b inuf 4 everybody after about 2 or 3 months.most importantly,most of these ps3s are being rush made so there is bound to some systems out there that r gonna give problems.well sony is losing out now but in a couple years time they will make back their profit.thats how it always works out.after a few years they r gonna make a smaller ps3 jus as they did with ps1 an ps2 an eventually make back their money after time.

yah.. i cosign to the extreme reason being what games are out now that you really even wanna play. its just like 360 people bought it and really had nothing to play but demos for MONTHS!!!! untill a few good titles came out. and currently i'ld say there are like 4 good 360 titles if that much

i figure the same trend gonna occur for playstation.. yes there is backwards compatability but we dont wanna play now old games we wanna see new shit making use of the new engine.

Sony would not be that stupid to make it not backward compatible.
