First guy who got there is an asshole, doesnt even grab a console just starts pushing people and consoles. Looks like he got crushed as well so lol at him.

Look at that girl in the third row working there when people started running you don't see here face but her hands going across it shows that she is thinking 'what is this madness,what is happening here?'

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Holy fuck....the hype towards PS4 is insane. God damn.

 

[DBT85]

Utterly ridiculous.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

LOL


Those gifs are insane.

 

[KZObsessed]

Glad someone made a thread about this, never seen anything like it before.

It's nice to see so many people excited to play Killzone.

-_-

Yup. Killzone was always much more loved in Europe if I'm right. (Of course this cannot be just because of Killzone. This is general hype.)

 

[maquiladora]

Reminds me of the PS2 launch.

Pretty much everyone at the UK launch event was getting Killzone.

 

[unknownstranger]

that one was great...took me second to realize who the PS4 was replacing..lol.. PERFECT!

also these could be used...although i'm sure there might be better quality ones.

Second one was already done around E3, but I'm not sure where to find it.

 

[Akira]

Can you make a Director's Cut with the napalm bomb as an Xbox? lol

 

[Marvel]

Horrifying.

 

[twl]

Need someone to shoop some tumbling ps4s into that one!

 

[sono]

I dont recall ever seeing anything like that for a console launch.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

I just spent 10 minutes laughing my ass off at the first guy. You can follow him through the whole gif. It gets funnier and funnier.

Go back a page or 2 .

 

[Parapraxis]

and people say Black Friday shopping in the US is wild

It's fun to consider that this item is selling at it's retail price... a price that will not go down for some time. Not on sale, not truly "limited".
Thats why I find that mad rushes in these gifs truly amazing, people are clamoring to by an item at full price.
It's like the new fucking furby, and for a $399 item, it's pretty fucking amazing.

 

[twl]

Go back a page or 2 .

Missed that one due to the level of craziness of the gifs and the whole thing in general, best launch ever!

 

[Deleted member 10571]

Do we have Xbox One videos like this? Also, US, you are boring for not having these!

(I can't understand how people won't just preorder and neither how shops NEVER are prepared for this in Germany)

Look at that girl in the third row working there when people started running you don't see here face but her hands going across it shows that she is thinking 'what is this madness,what is happening here?'

LOL didn't even notice her before She's all "My god. Oh my god!"

 

[Kurod]

That stairway gif is straight out of 28 weeks later.:lol

Soundtrack for this thread.

Looking at these gifs this theme came to mind almost instantly.

lol this is ridiculous. I wonder how many of them are scalpers. Or are people just that fucking hyped about the PS4 regardless of what games it has?

 

[Mx_Paladin]

What movie is this from.

 

[Nikodemos]

What movie is this from.

Children of Men. Pretty good film.

 

[Donos]

lol this is ridiculous. I wonder how many of them are scalpers. Or are people just that fucking hyped about the PS4 regardless of what games it has?

Seems like it was worth for them. Basic model goes for ~ 800 € on ebay.de (germany).

 

[Sayah]

That first snag was fucking CLEAN.

Looks like a bunch of walkers and the PS4 is live human flesh.

 

[Chariot]

The lazy people pre-order and pay the golden prize, but these true warriors paid the iron price. They are german born, they take what we need. So stop look down on them.

At first I thought you were sarcastic. The last line makes the whole post have a kind of terrifying sentiment.

 

[Xenex]

These people are actually insane, I'm excited to see how many units Sony sold for the EU inc. UK.

 

[Chariot]

Please, keep your first thought.

 

[protonion]

That's how you get DOA units.

 

[Randam]

the gifs/videos are all from germany btw.

did any scenes like this happen in other countrys?



in some stores they let people run into the stores, pushing over each other and even items on the way just to tell them, that all consoles they have are preordered. shake head..

 

[Chariot]

Not entirely. One or two are from france.

 

[Corto]

I see a bunch of future bricked PS4s on those gifs. Poor things.

 

[Ekid]

At last one of them is from France, where the same scenes occured.

 

[DrM]

did any scenes like this happen in other countrys?

It was quite wild in some stores in Austria and there are reports of rushes in Poland.

 

[Guymelef]

Can someone put blurred Media Markt or PS4 logo in the background behind the kid?

Not the same, but...

 

[ymmv]

PS4s on Ebay are now selling for 600-700 euro ... Crazy stuff.

 

[JaseC]

Children of Men. Pretty good film.

Understatement.

 

[ChryZ]

PS4s on Ebay are now selling for 600-700 euro ... Crazy stuff.

$800-1000 is pretty insane, you could buy hella PC for that money.

 

[DodgerSan]

I love how the security guard is like "Hmm... What's going on over he- NOPE!"

 

[DieH@rd]

$800-1000 is pretty insane, you could buy hella PC for that money.

Not in Europe. We dont have newegg and crazy deals like US gets, plus lots of stuff has $=€ pricing and 20% VAT.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

Dat PS4box, so cute!

 

[Sadist]

I love how the security guard is like "Hmm... What's going on over he- NOPE!"

The best part about this are the two guys arriving at the tv's and are like "yes ther- shit IT'S NOT we need to go farther!" Lol

Still, I'm laughing but at the same time it's sad.

 

[bombshell]

First guy who got there is an asshole, doesnt even grab a console just starts pushing people and consoles. Looks like he got crushed as well so lol at him.

Why is he an asshole? That stack is PS3's, he ran too far and tries to get back to the PS4 stack. You can see others who accidently grabs PS3's too.

 

[Azric]

lmao that dude failed hard. Got ps3 instead of PS4. I bet the employees did that on purpose

 

[Minions]

Why is he an asshole? That stack is PS3's (or something else, I'm not sure), he ran too far and tries to get back to the PS4 stack. You can see others who accidently grabs PS3's too.

 

[hEist]

I haven't seen Germans rush toward something like that since Poland 1939

 

[Dinjooh]

Yea 800$ ain't exactly much by danish standards either. I'd expect to use somewhere around 1600$ for a decent rig.

'Yes! - finally snagged a...oooooh no!"

 

[adamsapple]

Man that is terrible, couldn't that cause units to break/crack etc falling down like that ? who ever the unlucky person is who picks up one of those -_-
