Ok just got an update with the target and ps3. I went by there again today on the way to work and when I got there instead of there being 2 parts of a banner and then the ps3, there were 3 banners. I tried to look threw the spacing of the banners to see if the ps3 was still there and only saw cords and no ps3 (the kiosk is still set up though with the controller there). When I asked the guy working the electronics department about it, he said he didn't know they had one, but it should be up by the end of the week? When I told him I saw it last night he told me I must have been mistaken. WTF?

Btw, Best Buy.ca won't do pre-orders, I guess we won't have another classic thread on our hands.
They simply state to be online by 8:00 am EST if you wanna get ahold of one online or be near a store really EARLY by Friday morning.
I'll be up by 2 am.
Guaranteed.

After this thread, I thought this was interesting.

Whoa! where did that come from. That contradicts what we've heard right?!?!Bad_Boy said:
BTW i think thats the best news I could hear aside from ps2 upscaling. I have a MASIIVE dvd collection and I was kind of pissed when I thought I would have an HD tv and no upscaling dvd player
Oh I did my launch update at GS today: They are not doing a midnight launch because there aren't enough systems to justify it
no I have to wait 9 extra hours. I'll never catch up. Also, I was told it would take an act of God for them not to get thier ps3's. They expect them ALL no probSounds good, it's funny because my ebgames said something similar, but they are not sure on a midnight launch all of a sudden. They said they didnt know if it would be security risk or something if they opened at night, which is kinda BS cause its in a shopping center area were some stores are open 24/7. But they said they would call before hand to tell us if they will do one or not. Good to know they wont deviate from their pre-order plans, I would hate to have to catch the "second shipment" because of some error.BobTheFork said:Oh I did my launch update at GS today: They are not doing a midnight launch because there aren't enough systems to justify it
They had me up until the crows came out of the wall, weird video lol.Dahbomb said:

Well I found it funny because they did a 360 midnight launch and I think they are doing one for the Wii. They just thought it was dumb to hold a private event for a dozen peopleBad_Boy said:

Well I'm offically an impatient ass. I ordered an import copy of MotorStorm LOL I'm going to get the NA version so I can play online, but I just can't wait until march, that demo will hold me over for about a month until I get it though.
I suppose, it does indeed suck though. I hope my store does a midnight launch, but now I have my doubts that they will.BobTheFork said:Well I found it funny because they did a 360 midnight launch and I think they are doing one for the Wii.

where did you import from? I'm thinking about importing as well, play-asia.com preorders seem to be full.BobTheFork said:

I don't see why it wouldn't as when they've gone through menus in preview videos they have every language available to select.

Everytime I watch that Rubik's commercial, I end up thinking about Sega's "Blast processing".

ncsx.com is where i got it. Yeah i tried PA a few days ago and it was sold out. Not sure how many they had, but thats great to see.Bad_Boy said:
I think my excitement is starting to kick in.Shawn said:Well, the number of days has reached the single digits.
9 days until launch...
After years of waiting, we are down to 9 days.
Kinda weird when you think about it that way.
I think this image perfectly illustrates my emotions right now:
In a few more days, I might be like this:
Cool stuff, I'm still on the fence about it, I think I might wait to see how long the demo is.BobTheFork said:
I hear ya.
PlayStation 2 has been around for 6+ years, but it feels more like 20.
When I hear myself say aloud, "PlayStation 3 comes out in 9 days," it almost doesn't seem real.
I feel like it's taken forever for this time to come.
I don't know... It feels like it's not supposed to happen, or something -- but it is.
I'm always excited to be buying new tech toys, whether it be a new PC, new Tivo, etc... and while I'm looking forward to picking up the PS3, I WISH there was a launch title that I could really be excited about... but for me there just isn't. I'm picking up RR7 and Oblivion at launch... RR7 has some repeated tracks from RR6 which has dampened my interest somewhat... and I've generally never gotten in to the 1player RPG's so I'm not hyped about Oblivion, but I am curious about....
