Off topic a bit, but I want to know where did you get this info from?

his industry insider knowledge from working at Circuit City.

There was a "news" report on it a few weeks ago. I forgot what site it was from. Think it said the super chan edition with the figures (limited to 10,000) went really quick.

And since you're saying "most stores" don't do preorders, that doesn't mean all of them. Nintendo just started their Wii pre-orders a day or two ago over there.

Well yeah, some stores do pre-orders, but as I said, most stores don't. Therefore you can't say a system that has not been released has sold out when most stores aren't offering pre-orders on it.

You all have probably figured this out but let me confirm for you, if you're puchasing a PS3 you better damn well be HD ready, becasue the PS3 on a normal tv with normal hookups is goddamn atrocious, I mean, it's bland and near fuzzy, and I have trouble noticing small differences like that, so I know it was BAD.

People still use SD televisions?

I don't understand this confusion.

[Josh]

Well, I figure that you noobs would have gotten out of the dark ages by now.

Off topic a bit, but I want to know where did you get this info from? Because I was just at a game store last night and they had signs advertising the LE Blue Dragon 360 coming out on Dec. 7 along with the game. And since most of the stores in Japan do not offer pre-orders on systems I'd like to know how that can be claimed?

JAPWN3D!

[Schlep]

Weren't there just a bunch of Wii preorders over there, or did I miss something?

Games are a HUGE part of my life. I work in the industry. I spend the vast majority of my throw-away money on games and game-related stuff. Any time I have a day off, my first instinct is to spend it doing nothing but playing games. And you know what I think about the PS3?

Nothing, really. I just don't care at all. I'll lol if it falls flat on its face because of how arrogant Sony has become, but beyond that, I'm very ambivalent. This is the first console where I can remember feeling that way which tells me Sony's really messed up this time. I'll buy one eventually for the few exclusives (FFXIII if nothing else), but that's not saying much, as I buy every new system eventually.

So if I don't care, who are all these people that do?
