I love the drive-by BB gun story. O&A did a bit on that on Thursday morning and I was crying all the way to work.
It\'s amazing what people will do for a stupid game system. I remember going to get my Intellivision. Can\'t remember camping out to get it, though...Now, my Commodore 64...I saved for months for that.

I\'ll stick with my 360. As soon as Halo 3 and Halo wars are released I wont even be thinking of the ps3. Also gears of war just came out and that game kicks cornhole.

Yeah there,were people camping out in tents in front of best buy this morning. This is ridiculous..in a couple of months it wont even be that big a deal. i think this system is way overrrated..don\'t get me wrong. I suppose I will pick one up one day..just not anytime soon. Also a guy got shot this morning in my hometown..it\'s just a game system for cryin out loud..not life or death. That bites to go out like that :down:

Ok, here\'s my question. Answer it if you know. Why do all of the sellers have their names all written the same way on tent folded paper or have themselves in the picture holding up their names and show photos of the reciept for buying it?
The other thing is PS3 IS better than 360 for one reason, it has an Nvidia graphics card and the 360 doesn\'t. Xbox gave up their Nvidia contract after the first console.
However, I agree with everyone else Wii is the way to go.
As far as the shooting goes. It\'s actually rather clever.
The person was NOT shot for a PS3. Period.
These 2 guys pull up outside a Wally at 3am and rob the people waiting in line.
Think about, 3am (no one around). People in line with money! Sitting ducks.
So this fool refuses to give up his money and pop-pop. Once in the shoulder, once in the chest. He got shot because he was stupid, not for a system.

Everyone is writing their name on paper as futher proof that they actually have the system in their possesion and aren\'t just stealing pics from other sellers. You have to have a photo with as many Ps3\'s as you\'re going to sell with your name clearly visible and a picture of the receipts for them in the auction. so many auctions have been pulled because not eveyone is doing that. Nobody in my line had cash everyone was credit. and anyone who would admit to having cash is an idiot and prolly deserves to be shot haha not really but you\'d have to be pretty dumb.

ATI is better then Nvidia video cards. I\'ve always had an Nvidia video card and my friend has an ATI. He\'s ATI runs wayyyyy better then my Nvidia and I have a faster video card then he\'s. It\'s suppose to be a LOt faster but he gets way better performance out of he\'s then I get out of mine when playing a game. My pc is faster then he\'s so it\'s not that. That\'s why I just got an ATI video card for my pc. It\'s a good thing that Xbox got an ATI because there way better. I\'ll never get an Nvidia again :down: Mine dided right away and I had to get a 2nd one. I thought they were better then the ATI but I found out there not.
