Playstation 3



What a crazy day.
The playstation 3 came out last night, midnight, at Wal-Mart, and it wasn't all that bad of a scene.
Nobody got shot, like other places, nobody got jumped, and it appears the rest of Wichita Falls had a smooth selling period.

But with only about 50 units being sold in Wichita Falls, for an estimated 100,000 people in Wichita and another 200,000 in surrounding areas not close enough to DFW or OKC, that's not a lot.

I actually wanted to buy one.
But could I justify spending $600 plus on a new video game console. Nope, but I could try I thought.
The system alone is worth about $1000. And from what I've seen it on Ebay, the systems are going for a cool $4000 price tag.

Who the heck is crazy enough to buy it for $4000. Gotta be a rich parent with a loved/spoiled child.

And to the people who waited in line, more power to you. It takes gut to want something bad enough to sleep on concrete for. Have fun playing it...but for all those just wanting to sell it on Ebay...I hope you don't make too much money.

Yes someone deserving might get it for Christmas, but who's going to pay the electric bill?
