How's about some PS3, European style?
As a side note, our whole system/website/admin side of things just got a new facelift and it's taking a bit of getting used to. It's not any different, but it's a lot "cuter" to look at. Just noticing the giant bubbly letters that popped up as I typed the subject line. It's cool. It's a perfect compliment to that awesome new banner, eh? All right, anyway.So, do you happen to live in Europe? Do you happen to think to yourself "gee, I wish I could play the PS3 for a little while before March"? Well, it seems our man Ixalon got his hands on one -- he was kind enough to send us the neato picture you see here. Especially noteworthy is the piece of paper in the display case. "PS3 not for sale. Please don't ask." Love it. What are we trying to say here? Go out and play, guys! March is still a ways away, but apparently stores are giving you some love now. Try it out, get back to us.
Also of note, you can reserve your PlayStation Network usernames or some such now, even sans PS3! You can try your luck here, but hey, if you don't get a PS3 on launch, don't get too upset.
[thanks a lot, Ixalon!]

This is the first post in 23 hours. And this is the best you have. Even when you do have a story it is usually bad news. I am done looking for PS3 news. Go 360.

Your's is the first post on this subject and the best you could do was come up with a lame excuse to cheer on the 360? Even when the 360 came out all that was reported was bad news. I'm done reading your comments. Go PS3Fanboy.
I'd call the lack of news, good news in this case. At least we don't have rampant stories of overheating, red-lighting, scratching disc and loud drive stories. Go 360 indeed.

The only stores that have PS3s in the UK are the CeX stores. I played on the PS3 in my Brighton store in the UK.

Is that CEX in Cardiff?

My friends, I may have some interesting news for you. Do you know Romania? That country that will join the EU on the 1st of January 2007. The country where Microsoft Romania does not import the Xbox 360.
Well, guess what? I was looking for an Xbox 360 to get myself for this Christmas and I found one. That's not the catch...listen here: at the same shop they were selling the PLAYSTATION 3. I couldn't belive it as I knew the PS3 won't be available in Europe till march.
If you don't trust me I will come back with some pictures.
Oh, and I forgot to mention the price. That's 800 EURO.
