they kind of do. isn't buy a 3d tv get a free ps3? or did they stop that

Yeah, I remember that, but it was a deal in Australia only I think and the TVs were stupidly expensive already.

- the 500M marketing at work

- not that impressive : 6 guys waiting : WOW !!!

i will never understand why people line up for games, id just turn around and go home and go back the next day

People line up for pretty much  anything these days.

If they keep that up those 6 could each go home with 500 kinects

just think about that ........

They're giving away a lot more than just a PS3 now if you buy a Bravia 3d tv in Australia.

Sony Australia has issued a promotion on their Bravia 3D TV line that will instantly get the first 21,000 people a copy of GT5, among other items, before Christmas. Basically all that you need to do is purchase a Bravia 3D TV and submit proof of purchase to Sony to get in on the deal. Once you do that you’re entitled to a shiny new 160GB PS3, two pairs of 3D glasses and a 3D transmitter, two 3D movies, four downloadable PS3 games vouchers, and one highly anticipated racing title. (GT5)

And if what Gamespot writes is true, just imagine the disappointment of two of them when Kinect won't recognize them!   

But you wouldn't get $150 dollars worth of stuff which you could probably sell for at least $100.

I'd probably wait in line half a day if I knew I was gonna get $150 bucks.

oh i understand why these guys are doing it, who wouldnt want $150 gift card. i was just talking about lines in general like when a console is released the line would be all the way down the street now to me thats sounds crazy and japan is worse they'd be queing at 4 in the evening to like 12 at night, if not longer
