To me this smacks of astroturfing. It's just so positive and perky. Any negative aside from one camera issue is turned around to sound good.  It also has the same hip cool language that alliwantforchristmasisapsp.com had.

I also find it hard to believe that someone would risk there job so their son could play a game. They have the date of the post and they no doubt know who would have access to the game. They know they are a mother with a son of over 16 or so, I think its definitely possible they could find out who gained a copy.

I think the pics are another flag. They are almost all really blurry. Who can't take non-blurry pics of a boxes sitting on a table? Even if you managed this why post the blurry ones? Surely they aren't all blurry? It feels like they have exaggerated this to make the whole thing feel more amateurish and thus real.

Anyway, I'm not saying it is. Just that it raises alarms in my head..
