This is complete madness. 9 days in advance? Are people THIS obsessed?

Don't these people have work to go to?
The scary part is, people will hear about this tonight, say "oh shit" and run to join them
this last guy looks armenian! BURBANK!
That gives over a week for someone to go up to them and take their money.
I don't get it either. I have a job and a kid to take care, I can't do this kind of shit. Do these people have nothing going on in their lives?Originally Posted by Scum

When there's a movie made about life in Cali, and this is the supporting role, this is expected.
What's the penguin for?
Don't hate, guys. Deep down you're jealous that you're not as hardcore as you thought.
I hope they brought a small pail of water and soap for the 9 day camp.
Their eBay profit will cover any work they miss.Originally Posted by Scum

That's what happened with me during the Toysrus PS3 preorders. I got there around 12:00 saturday, and then people were like "Oh Snap! I better get in on dis!"Originally Posted by jamesinclair

The climate is too good around here.. everyone's willing to camp. Except me, because I prefer to have some dignity (and, more importantly, hope to be working by the 17th).
Damn penguin, he is always first in line..

I'm so glad I have a pre-order and don't have to do that; I can't wait to walk by all the smelly campers next Friday.

wow
LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

wtf :|
Nine days o_O? That is beyond ridiculous in nature...
That's 9 ****ing days. These guys are nuts. Its a third of a month.
They wanted one.What's the penguin for?
This is amazing. I wonder if there is a line forming at the best buy near my house. I am too lazy to wait in line anymore. I already pre-order one at EB. I guess I will be content with that.
Man, I didn't realize just how close the PS3/Wii are. Next week!Originally Posted by bune duggy

Those of us getting a Wii can just walk into a store on launch day and get one. I couldn't imagine having to line up for 2 hours, let alone 9 days for a video console system.
Queuing up a few hours before launch - yeah.Originally Posted by Vieo

Queuing up 9 days before launch - madness. :lol
These guys are so hellbent on getting a PS3 that they somehow missed out on the GS/EB preorders?
Now the console could never live up to their hopes. Imagine living on pavement for nine days - the console could only disappoint once you finally get it.
Nah, thats just the usual homeless.
Wow, those guys are almost as sad as 1up.com
Some of those guys are going to be pissed when they stand in line for 3-4 days and still don't get one! :lol
He's gonna be really disappointed when he finds out that Happy Feet isn't available for the PS3.
Maybe this guy thinks he's in Japan or something.
That's what I'm saying. I only showed up 2 hours before the store opened and was 2nd in line. So camping for 9 days is better than standing in line for a few hours?Originally Posted by kaching

It makes you wonder are they actually doing it to guarantee themselves a system or just to sell it on Ebay?Originally Posted by Matix

He's probably looking forward to Genji too.
To be fair most people who follow message boards were tipped off. The rest of the public didnt have ANY notice until after oct 10th. damn EB newsletter.Originally Posted by kaching

Worst would be the BB employees either bought them or stole them all. :lol :lol :lol
If for some reason I have to go to that Best Buy in the next week, I'm going to point and laugh and/or avoid them like the plague.
which makes you more likely to get on the news?Originally Posted by Soybean

i honestly can't even comprehend this.
Hm...I tried to use the exact same argument but people said everyone in the entire world knew about EB's pre-orders in advance...Originally Posted by neojubei

If they are smart. They are taking shifts of waiting there. That is the only way I would remotely think about doing that.
it's always the fault of the first guys in the line, so freakin paranoyac that they got go 1 week in advance,, what the hell
i`m going 4 hours in advance thats it, if I dont get one, then I willl have peace of mind that atleast I had a good night`s sleep

How are they supposed to go to the bathroom? I wouldn't let them back in line.

If this isn't evidence that us in the west have it way and again too easy, then I don't know what is.
I'm sure they've been supplied with a good amount of empty Mountain Dew bottles.Originally Posted by argon
