What is about to happen in mid-November is so much more important than simply a new product hitting the market. With the release of these two systems, our world will transition into a new era of gaming. People will now begin to realize that video games are more than just ways to kill time but are also an art form; a place to explore alternate realities and find out more about ourselves beyond what reality allows us to see. The Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii system launches will signify the end of one way of life and the beginning of the next.
To begin this transition, some friends and I have decided to participate in it directly. For the last month, we have been planning exactly how we're going to pre-order and purchase a PS3 (and possibly a Wii if money allows me). I don't wanna go into detail about what our plans are, but I will say that part of it involves taking pictures and video taping the experience. I want others to see what it's like to be a part of this event and to experience the adrenaline rush and intensity of being part of the changing of a new era.
So, keep an eye on my blog for pics and possibly a video of this historic journey. I hope you're ready in your corner of the US, cuz it's gonna be big...
