  I got my PS3

  I got my PS3 after waiting in line for 3 days and 2 nights. I waited infront of walmart in the freezing wind and rain. I was first in line, i was probly the only person on that line that wanted to keep his PS3 the rest of them wanted to sell thier PS3 online. Me and my friend, who didnt want to get a PS3 but lined up with me anyway, had alot of good time. People have been asking us what are we doing and others where asking if there was enuf PS3 and if it was possible to line up now. I had star status inside walmart, we would go inside and every employee knew who was first in line since wednessday. They gave me free food and extra blanket and warm clothing. I guess i was lucky. Anyways once i got mine, i rushed home right away and pluged it in my TV. I have to say i am very impressed at how powerfull the PS3 is. I put my Memory Stick Pro from my 6mega pixel cam. It processes my images like nothing, rotates and previews like nothing. Ripping entire Music CD is nothing for the PS3. It plays my burned DVD's, which i was amazed by, aslong as its MPEG1 to 4. I had a few 720 resolution videos nothing to say about it, it plays it well. Then i went into the game, i downloaded motostorm and its what i see in the trailer back in E32006. The game is just amazing, i might pick it up later on. Then i put in Resistance Fall of Man, its like a mix of Halo and Halflife 2. Its very good and i am very impressed at how powerfull the PS3 is from there. Then i headed to bed after being awake for like 48 hours. I probly started at the system it self for a good hour lol before i slept. I was so worth it to line up for it. If you havent gotten it, here is what i have to say for it. Its worth the price!
