no sleeping for me. im not risking my safety and my ps3.
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...

I just called the closest gamestop. They said they'll be accepting preorders starting early tomorrow for $100 down. It's too bad I won't be able to make it there (it's a quite a bit aways) until at least saturday. I don't think I'm going to preorder. Camping sounds more fun. How much longer can it really be if you don't preorder or camp though? When do you think they'll (gamestop) have enough so that you can just pop in and buy one?

Well if you are in a good postion when camping (like near the front of the line) then you are garenteed one on the first day pretty much. But pre-ordering you are guaranteed to get one but you may not getit right away.

If your gamestop is taking preorders tomorrow, please list your City/State. Also, what happens if you preorder, and go to pick up on the 17th and there are none left?...can you get your deposit back, or do you have to wait to get more in?

That is the problem with pre-ordering you may not get it right away. Although I heard if you pre-order you can go in front of everyone in the line and get it right away instead of waiting in the line. But if you go to late you may not get ps3 on the 17th.

Ok I am calling my Game Stop and Eb Games tommorow first thing. I'll let you guys know what's up with both of them. Either way I am camping at a rural area walmart ne how and will be gauranteed one ne ways. I went there last year at 3pm the after noon before no one was there til 6 all kids waiting for their parents to get out of work and bring em. This time school night+plus working parents. Ill be there at 1pm with snowboard clothes on and will be set. Do you think the date is still official? It seems kind of off.
Ok its official if you guys see this thread tonight gamestop is preordering tommorow 10.10.2006. If you look at the site under ps3 its there. Ok about preordering they said this could end in 10 mins. Is there a store limit or national limit on how many can be preordered? Im hoping i can preorder over phone but whoo knowz. I am calling every hour. They prolly open at 9 tho. So from 8-9 im gonna try tho.
In fact I think we would be fooling our selves if we have a community this large, and did not realize that there are some enemies present. This message has been edited since posting. Last time this message was edited on 9. October 2006 @ 18:43

Limited PlayStation 3 Pre-Order
GameStop and EB Games will begin accepting limited pre-orders for the PlayStation 3 console on Tuesday, October 10, on a first come, first served basis. Due to extremely limited supply, we expect to deplete this allocation very quickly, most likely in minutes. We will not accept additional pre-orders at this time. To avoid an unnecessary trip we strongly recommend you call your local store to determine availability. A $100 reservation deposit is required, which can be funded with cash, credit or trade. As we cannot control production and shipping issues by the manufacturer, a reservation deposit does not guarantee receipt of a system available to purchase at launch. Reservations/Purchases are limited to 1 per household.
Our limited online pre-order program will be announced at a later date, after software and accessory availability dates are confirmed. Online product pricing and availability will vary and will be fulfilled independent of store reservations.
before people start asking basic or obvious questions, please read and re-read this info. i copied and pasted it straight from GameStop's website.

1. GameStop and EB Games will begin accepting limited pre-orders for the PlayStation 3 console on Tuesday, October 10, on a first come, first served basis
2. A $100 reservation deposit is required, which can be funded with cash, credit or trade.
3. Reservations/Purchases are limited to 1 per household.
-not sure if that means one per household per store or per chain, or one per person period...
4. a reservation deposit does not guarantee receipt of a system available to purchase at launch.
thats basically the breakdown on things. GOOD LUCK!!
oh yeah stores in my area open up at 10:00am
