Silly me, and all this time I thought EB Games was gone since they were BOUGHT UP BY GAMESTOP AND ALL CHANGED THEIR NAMES TO GAMESTOP.

Sounds like another hoax to defame the PS3. Like the "Dusty" PS3 hoax.

No. Sounds like the kid was owned by EB Games.

There is no more EB Games... They are all Gamestop now. Unless this news post is a year old, there are no longer any EB Games.

Perhaps. Not that its Sony's fault or anything, but the last Sony related incident to make it to Fox news was a hoax; the person was an actor, who purposefully put his PS3 through what I can only imagine was a sandblaster to try and defame Sony's warranty service.

If this is true and not a "hoax" I hope Gamestop/EB Games corrected the issue.
