      "wow this thing really sucks, wish I bought the Wii and a pile of FUN games"

    • garreh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2That sure is one shiny 450 quid mirror.

    • Black913Hole, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4he actually said "waiting online is for suckers." not inline.
    • pwill, on 10/12/2007, -17/+3@Black913Hole:

      This is true, I made a typo. However, PS3'S are still for suckers.
    • chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4you are a complete tool
    • adidos, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Correction, he actually said "Waiting on line is for suckers!". "on line" and "online" are different things.
      I think "on line" was supposed to be "in line" and not online in terms of the Interweb.
  • skoles, on 10/12/2007, -19/+1How are they getting them so early? They don't get released for a few days still.

    This is one of many "unboxing" posts I've seen around.
  • Denver80203, on 10/12/2007, -29/+12'Waiting on line is for suckers!'

    Buying a PS3 is for suckers

    It's called preordering from Amazon.co.jp...and considering the PS3 launched in Japan yesterday...get it?
    • zybch, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Amazing they shipped it to the US considering that Sony shut down that company that was going to ship them into the EU coz sony are being ***** about releasing them there well after everywhere else has them.
    • skoles, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Oh it was already released in Japan? I thought I read some time ago that the Japan launch was coming after the American one for some reason (or simu release). Which is normally unheard of.
    • SkippyDoorknob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6CheapyD lives in Japan, it wasn't shipped to the US.
    • b0bx13, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They didn't ship it to the US. Cheapy is in Tokyo.
    • granny2k5, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1http://wiki.cheapassgamer.com/index.php/CheapyD
  • mywhitenoise, on 10/12/2007, -10/+5$614 for the PS3 and 2 games!? *****, man, that's awesome.
    • omgwut, on 10/12/2007, -16/+8Yeah, bankruptcy is sweet!
    • 0101010, on 10/12/2007, -6/+6aww are you just mad cause your mommy wont buy you one this christmas?
  • Snakedal337, on 10/12/2007, -6/+10/dullvoice

    SIXAXIS... very exciting *worthlessly toss to side*

    Lan cable... very exciting *toss with sixaxis*
    • JonBuddy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Yeah. I loved how he said "very exciting" in that dull voice.
  • kenvsryu, on 10/12/2007, -12/+6Too bad it can't play US Bluray movies.
    • kingfoot, on 10/12/2007, -6/+13yes it can, its region free.
    • reddevil3, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Its region free for the games, not the movies.

      The MPAA gets involved when it comes to movies.
    • chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15morons. all of you. US and japan are in the same region for blu-ray.
    • Evari, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3if he lives in japan why would he want US blu-ray movies?
    • eplawless, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8because... he is an english... speaker?
  • BSherrod, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3That was an incredibly smart move right there, he saved a good bit of many, especially considering the shipping, i bet that was ridiculously high.
  • growler1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Did he just say "Oh, gravy" ?
  • razdigital, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Can't wait for the bugs to appear, remember the overheating issue with the XBox 360 when it first came out with the overheating issue. I don't know if it still occurring but its better to just wait out the bugs and the problems seen during initial release stage. I would hate for the system to break down right after the day of the system warranty ends.
  • catpounce004, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Maybe I should post a video of me opening a box, only to find another box, etc ad nasuem. That ad naseum part is how I feel seeing posted videos of box opening.
  • truegodofwar, on 10/12/2007, -8/+7Sounds like he got his wife from asia too. Cheap bastard.
    • solarisom, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12Is it just me, or does the camerawoman just *sound* hideous?
  • someguy9, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2how did this make frontpage? we have all seen unboxing of ps3... we want soem gameplay ppl
  • erkokite, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5That thing is the size of my old VCR.
  • Raian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Okay I have to mention this: In a hundred years is the internet just going to be a device we use to watch people "unbox" things... stop with the unboxing PLEASE... enough is enough.
    • chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10there will be virtual reality unboxing games by that time. i, for one, welcome our new unboxing overlords.
  • pigsbladder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It's the size of an 80's ferguson video star with the remote on a wire...
    • chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3you just severely dated yourself, buddy... or should i call you grandpa
  • ohgr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Hmm you know he's right. It does sort of resemble a George Foremen Grill.
  • SuperSunny, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I dislike Sony, but personally, I think it would still kick ass to own a Ps3 right now after I heard about the Other OS installation feature.
  • justingj, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Either he just moved into his apt, or he should have spent the $600 on furniture instead of a PS3.
    • 5555, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6That's a pretty damn spacious apartment for Tokyo.
  • mhuggins, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1"Waiting on line is for suckers!"

    I hate people who say "on line" instead of "in line". You're not ON TOP of the line, you're a member of it, AKA you're IN it.
  • ZeroMP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2ZOMG!!1 A BOX! and he OPENED it!

    My life is now complete.
  • enforcerpsu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2oh wow, an unboxing video. Someone please hold me down, im freaking out with excitment. You mean hes actually taking it out of the box!!?? Holy *****, amazing...
