****ing finally. I've been waiting for the "Howard Stringer" effect to finally kick in.

So basically they are going to go up against Wii and 360 (which will be pushed back onto a shelf) with a ****ing home theater.
Wow.
jamesinclair said:So do most of you not go to Best Buy?
My local best buy has the X360 kiosk, plus the couch area. Couch area ahs the HDTV, surround sound, a 360 and a PS2. Then theres a standard PS2 kiosk, and a guitar hero PS2 kios.
Sony Corp. will use five times the number of U.S. demonstration booths to promote the PlayStation 3 as it did for the last console, part of a plan to keep users from defecting to Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox and Nintendo Co.'s Wii.
Sony, the world's largest maker of video-game consoles, will spend $30 million to put the consoles in 15,000 U.S. and Canadian kiosks during the holiday season, said Jack Tretton, co-chief operating officer of Sony Computer Entertainment America. The 2000 introduction of PlayStation 2, which dominated the last generation of game consoles, used 3,000 demo booths.

I get floorplans when I service Best Buy stores and install equipment for them and they look nothing like that bogus "floorplan".

Wario64 said:So Best Buy should have the PS3s set up this Friday?
http://www.ps3forums.com/showthread.php?t=33719After strolling into my Best Buy today i noticed a line and that could have only meant one thing. The PS3 kiosk was there? No, not till tommorow, but there was already a line forming outside the store to see the newly setup kiosk area. I have never seen this kind of reaction, not even for the 360.
This is where the kiosk will display. Sorry for the bad quality, i had to be quick with the camera phone.
This is the area where the games will be displayed. Notice the space to right, all the original shelving was taken down for the new display. You can see this display in the back right of the top picture.
The media manager at my Best Buy kept reasuring everyone that the PS3 WOULD BE PLAYABLE the next morning. I will be one of the 20 people already camping out right now. Im writing this on my laptop as I sit out here with the rest of the PS3 boys. Thank god for wireless. More to come soon!
