EB Games is taking PS3 pre-orders - Sep 28, 2006 03:08
I saw a huge Wii banner in an EB Games yesterday, & it reminded me that we' re coming up on November pretty quickly now. Naturally, stores are going to start taking pre-orders pretty soon. According to one of the clerks, the plan for them is to take pre-orders one week in October, as I' ve said before, I just don' t know which week. So feel free to post any and all Pre-order junk here.

Edit: see my third post for PS3-order stuff.

I wont pre-order Wii, PS3 is going to be a bitch to even get to pre-order... they' ll probably sell out of pre-orders after 5 minutes, but I shall try.

If I see people buying it for $2000 or so I might sell mine if I get one at launch.

I' ll just take the PS3 apart and sell the blu-ray drive for the same price as
a stand-alone blu-ray drive. Then I will sell the actual console for £100.00
cheaper...

Makes sense doesn' t it?
There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

Yeah, it' s amazing what people will buy, because they' re too lazy to get off their butts at midnight and pick one up.

Yeah, I got the same basic reaction Mikayd2, one week in october, keep calling, you can' t bug us, we know you' re serious about this.

I just got off the phone with some of my gamestop buddies and they said that they were having a corporate managers meeting and that I should call Everyday.

I asked them has the demand been high for the Ps3 he said yes. He said he has never seen anything like this not even 360 launch. He also said that when they do decide to take Reserves. It will be for one day only and the reason for that was they are only getting 10 lol men I had better be in the top ten.

But on a Funny note I asked my man what he thought of the Ps3 Coming out in November He laughed and said not enough of em. Now that' s funny.

My bro just got off the phone with EB games, and they' re going down the pre-ordered PS3 games list, & asking if they want to pre-order. I' ll post further later.

Edit: The full story, EB games called my house, and said they were taking pre-orders for the PS3. I believe their down-payment was 100 dollars, but I' m not sure (I didn' t take the call). I' m not sure if they' re going down their pre-set list, or if it' s open for anyone who calls, I' ll try to see what' s up today. Schoolwork has kept me from doing much of anything lately.
