    Come now, people... am the only one who thinks all these people are absolutely INSANE? Not only the injuries that happen, but camping out for days to shovel out for a six-hundred dollar console? Don't get me wrong, I'm a bit of a Sony fanboy, but really... people need to take notes on the failings of consoles when they are first released... or just be patient and wait a few months.

    If you paid attention, a lot of stores actually aren't taking many preorders for the games. Walmart, Target, Best Buy, EB, GameStop, no longer taking pre-orders or some just haven't taken pre-orders at all. Not to mention have you ever really been in a mob? You generally have no control of where you go and you find that people are pushing you. The kid was most likely actually pushed into the pole.

    You're not the only one who thinks these people are insane Sasuke. This whole thing is getting way out of hand. =/ It almost makes me ashamed to be a PS fangirl.

    Nvm that the system is ridiculously expensive right now. I can't believe people are actually coping out $600 for the PS3...some are even paying $2,000 on eBay!

    Gah, it just paints an even worse picture of video games and the people who play them; worse than before.

    You know i dont think those Thugs were after the PS3 I think they just took advantage of the situation to steal money from people....

    And Gaming Tech Grows One Day I Believe Virtual Game Systems will get much better (There are some out already but are really crappy)

    And once Virtual Games get really cheap I predict alot of Large People..

    Just to throw this out there... I'm sure everyone has heard of the "Smash My..." websites. Low and behold, today, released was noneother than the "Smash My Playstation 3".

    Ah yes. Saw something about that in the paper this morning when I had a glance at it. Guess I'll have to read the article later.

    *will not watch the video cause she will cry if she does*

    Where do these guys get the money to do all this anyways? o_O

    Indeed. Donations. They do it with all the systems. They've done it for iPods, PS2, XBox, XBox 360... they'll be doing it for the Wii tomorrow.

    DO me a favor Sasuke make sure that link is in this thread or at least send it to me.

    Anyways to stay on topic. If you ever camped out for any system you know that there's always a chance for a Zeus of an idoit to pull a stunt like this, shows you how fantastic they was raised. But bah I'm amazed people are actually doing this...I've lost faith in humanity ;o

    And who the hell is sane enough to donate their good money for this?

    ....Nvm....Considering there's people out there right now paying the full price for one, I realize who is saner. =/

    There are people paying like two to three thousand for it. But really, the donations are usually only like three to five dollars. Then there are actual companies that sometimes donate up to fifty bucks. They get little amounts from a lot of people, usually just barely enough to cover all the costs. Then of course there's one guy that donates thirteen dollars and thirty-seven cents (took me a moment to get that one).

    Devious. Muaha, that's EXACTLY what I would do, except for the part about having to pay $700 in the end. Oh well, Atari will have to do for a couple mor years.:(
