UK PS3 Launch
Monday, March 26, 2007

It is here at last it seems. In fact it is perfectly clear that it has arrived - newspapers are filled with ads shouting about the PS3s that they have in stock - get them now! And, on perusing the shopping centres late on Saturday, I noticed that every electronics store outlet from Game-station to HMV and Curry's Digital had large protruding signs announcing "Playstation 3 in stock... hurry". Should I have had £500 to lay down on a system + game I could have bought one from anywhere. Though, if I wanted to buy myself a Wii I would be hard pressed to find one; HMV, Game, et al. had all sold out and many stores still had waiting lists. I'll take my £300 + Wii over a PS3 and Resistance Fall of Man any day, in fact, 4 months later I and my house-mates still avidly play Wii Sports. I do plan to purchase a PS3 (ICO 3, Little Big World), though not for a good 18 months.
