At the London launch everyone who bought a PS3 also received a free 46-inch HD television and a taxi home.

In total, the giveaway amounted to £250,000 worth of televisons to more than 100 gamers.

Well, i went to my local Toy's "R" Us store at around 9am this morning, and they opened at midnight and had sold, wait for it...........4 units!! JUST 4!!

They still had about 50 left in stock.

I bought the 60GB PS3,
Extra controller
Motor Storm
NFL 2K7,
and had an HDMI cable thromn in for £499.00

The machine is simply awesome, but every shop in my town, Currys Comet Toys r us, have shed loads of units left.

COME ON AND SPEND THE MONEY!!!##Dan,
