PS3 Campers Already In Line At Best Buy

From kotaku:

"Devoted reader Jonathan "I'm not the lead singer of Korn" Davis risked life and limb to get us this shot. Three of the hardest of the hardcore (or least sane of the hardcore, you decide) already have their mushy butts in line at a Burbank, California Best Buy, prepared to be the first through the doors when the PlayStation 3 goes on sale next Friday. Nine days from now. Looks like the rest of you can skip this location.

Still, if you're going to be in line for over nine days, you had better have the right supplies. Plastic penguin? Check. Lawn chairs? Yup. Toilets? Those potted plants will do.

The dream of scoring a PS3 at retail seems less and less like reality as the days pass. Thanks again, Jonathan"

3 guys are already camping, and the console only gets released in 9 DAYS!
I wonder if one of them is Video_freak, he is also from Bay Area :rolleyes:

I'm sorry but i must say this, when your camping for 9 days for something to come out, you have less of a life than I, which is pretty bad....

Truly, these people ned to GET A FRICKEN LIFE. Video games are all good and stuff, but cmon there are more things to life. They just need to go back to school, meet some girls, and make something of themselves.

If I was still planning to go for a PS3 on launch I would have started camping 3 days before its release. It looks like I wouldn't have been first then! :p 9 days is ridiculous though!

What a bunch of weiners. Shadowblind is right, video games are good but geez that's going waaay to far. I wouldn't even camp out at all, I have stuff and work to do and it's stupid.

Amazon sarted taking preorders at 12:00 AM November first. They sold out by 1 AM. You snooze, you loose. (That saying is kinda ironic in this situation because most people are asleep at 1:00 AM... :rolleyes:)

PS: I REALLY wanna go up to them and just start beating the shit out of them now...)

this is just sad

one reason for this is because whilst they are waiting outside, people are going in and out of that shop all the time.

the other reason is that the ps3 is of no interest to me whatsoever....

how long did people line up for the star wars movies? i remember some of them starting earlier than this, and all they got to take from it was a ticket stub.
