Well here's how things sit. I work for a retailer. I am a manager for this retailer. I know how many consoles my store is going to get. I have Thursday and Friday off. I thought my chances of getting a PS3 were pretty good. But things have changed. When I went into work yesterday, I saw a LINE!!!! Two people, just sitting there in front of the HDTV wall with laptops, obviously making themselves comfy. Now these two people are not enough to deter me, but I have to close tonight. That means that I have to be on my company's time until 10 o'clock tonight. So if in the next 12 hours 4 more people get into line. I'm screwed. But, if on the off chance when I get off, there is less than 6 people in line, then I will begin my 26 hour wait. I don't have a laptop. All I have is a PSP with about 6 hours of life, and a book of Sudoku puzzles. Oh, and a large well of patience. Oh yeah, patience. So wish me luck. There are three games I am completely stoked about. Madden '07 after seeing the making of the game, I am convince it is truly next gen. MotorStorm have you seen the videos for this game on IGN.com? Amazing. Simply amazing. And last but certainly not least Resistance Fall of Man the makers of Ratchet and Clank make a first person shooter with awesome guns. You just gotta play that one. 40 online with very little lag or framerate issues. You gotta love that even more.
If I don't get one on day one. I won't be too sad. Because then I can watch the backdoor. And while there may be laws against understocking a street dated item, there are absolutely no laws against it once the date has hit. My company probably won't like it, but oh well.
