Anyone waiting in line tonight for the PS3, or Sat night for the Wii?

In the university town where I work, people have been lining up since Tuesday to buy the PS3.

I think we're going for the Wii, though. We'll wait for the second issue of the PS3--the first issue usually has bugs.

1. Eric Cartman for the Wii

been there since "South Park"'s season started, with a brief break while he tried to time-travel into the future to get it. :-)

2. LOL.

3. Waiting for the ps3 here too

Although we've still got a first issue ps2 that's still running just fine, it's the price that's holding me back this time. Oh well, I've enough ps2 and 1 games to keep me going :)

4. Wow...

...I don't even have a PS2

5. Is the PS3 backwards compatible?

I heard that it is, and then recently I heard that it isn't?

It would suck to buy a $600 system and not be able to play any of the dozens of PS2 games on it.

:(

The Wii, though...the controllers are cool as they can be. And the Wii is less than half the price.

6. I heard it was,

but that you need an adaptor to use an older memory card

7. Gotcha.

And that adapter will probably cost $75. :(

I might get up at 11:30 and go to HellMart and see if it's a circus. :D
