I guess it would depend on the people around you. I am sure that if you and your friend go and camp for a few hours, then you leave for your mid-term, then get right back they would be fine with it. I for one would be fine with it, only if you and your firend were only getting one PS3. Like I said, it would depend on the people around you. I am sure they would understand since it is for school.

I don't know, good luck getting that to go over well with the people. I guess its not like to go out and eat for a couple hours, or any other time consuming task. Since it relates to education, they should be fine with it. Like I said earlier, just make sure it is ok with the people in front of you and behind you. Good Luck.

Yeah I wil keep my ps3 as well and only get one. Plus keep in mind dont go home because you couldent get a 60 GB version if you can get a 20gb version go for it later on you can just add a beter hardrive in it. Also yeah 25-100 is a big gap I bet they are just saying that so more people come and they end up only getting like 25.

Very true. I know, I'm getting any PS3 come Friday. I don't care if it is a 20 or a 60 GB, I'll just find a wireless USB adapter and possibly buy another hard drive.

but then you also lose thge ultra-sexy silver trim and lettering..
But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

if it was up to me I would buy the 20 g version and sell it when the units become more productive if I couldnt get the 60g then I would buy it with the money from the sell, since I do want it for its extra goodies . but at this point get any you can !

shouldn't you guys be camping right now? I just basically pulled a double-all-nighter to finish up school stuff (still working on it, actually) so that I'll be able to be at Best Buy by around 4. But especially anubis...I thought you were going to camp really early.

good luck camping at target. you better be the first 5 because most targets are only getting around 6 to 8 units. 10000 for the company. oh and you are only limited to one unit period. better chance at getting the wii at target stores because each store is getting at least 30 ea. with some stores getting 100.

yeah your right wolvie Target is not more focused on the ps3 launch since they are gettim more Wii's and doin those gift cards but they still are pushin the launch which is cool oh and they are gettin more than 30 thats average I got another Target thats gettin 60 and I read that some were gettin over 200 in different citys from a leak but check this out guys lol this is sick! its all the campers , a nice long video that I havent seen yet enjoy .

The hype surrounding the Firday launch of the Playstation has officially started - or I shoudl say, officially started Monday at 7PM EST. At the Circuit City in Rockville, MD, the first person in line arrived at 7PM on Monday, guranteeing a PS3 for his son. The Circuit City is to receive over 100 units and sell them at 12:01am on Friday, which has caused this huge turnout. Click on the link for the news report video.

i actually drove by circuit city earlier and there were already 7 people in line. naturally after i went in the store to find they don't have any games or controllers for sale, i stopped and asked them how long they had been there. the first person was there since 6am(older man) then there were about 3 who were all friends that had been there since 9am and the rest...anyway i asked if they were there to get the system to enjoy or to resell. all but one said they are reselling it...such a shame...i am actually starting to think that maybe these stores and due to the shortages should start implementing the lottery system. prices on ebay i think are going to go through the roof pretty soon. i also seen they had a notice on the door at CC, that said something along the lines of due to the short supply, there was a misprint in our sunday add, which then went on to say they lowered their expected numbers for the ps3s...

I'm going tonight. I am planning on staying at my local Circuit City until 9 or 10 then my dad will take over my post until the morning and until around 3 o'clock tommorow. Then I will wait until I get a ticket. Hooray, now I have to get my moms approval. Ohh Boy. Also, just incase no one checks the store developements thread, there is already 40 people camping outside my local BestBuy, the Chapel Hill one (midnight release).

Most likely, lets hope no stores aren't dumb enough to not hand out tickets

I have 7 people waiting in line for me right now at a best buy. They only wanted 100 each to stand in line. Every single one is going on ebay. I hope to make a killing.

I work at circuit city, and this morning when i showed up at 8 a.m. there was already four tents. and i feel bad for the rest of the people who are going to wait in line, because i have been told that we are only getting in 6. And when i left work, at 5 p.m., we still have not received a single game or accessory. it is going to get ugly friday

Handing out tickets is a smart thing too do so people who camp wont get scrwed over and camp for nothing. Now for this if you are camping but you odnt get a ticket then you can go home. That is actually a smart thing not dumb.
