If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. With just a week to launch, the PS3 and Wii are almost here and there is plenty of help out there if you want to try scoring one on launch day. For the Wii,
read up on this guide, or
try this one for the ps3. The
Wiiseeker and
PS3seeker will tell you exactly how many units your closest Target, Walmart, and Gamestop will have ready to sell. Ask MeFi also offers help:
1,
2,
3. And the
latest MeFi Project helps those that are sticking it out at
Console Camp.

This game rated JC for eternal salvation, curing of the sick, and excessive scourging at the pillar. Ok, this is getting ridiculous...
a Christian videogame about the rapture and the tribulations? WTF? I guess I know which side I'd be on.
Seriously, though, do these people realize that every single new Christian-centric product is nothing more than a honeypot for harvesting names, addresses, and email addresses? Just like the GOP, people realize there's
money to be made in marketing to Christians. But, the second you sign up, I'm sure you get added to one of the GOP's
spam farms direct mail providers and sold to the appropriate politicrit or ideological demagogue.
Just to show you I'm not full of it, look at who's in the databases of the
Omega List and
Response Unlimited...
Advance Ticket Buyers for the Passion of the Christ,
Peace Frogs (what?),
Y2K Preparedness Buyers, the
current (68k) and
former (19m) subscribers to the Washington Times (aka Moonie Times), and of course, the
Terri Schiavo Donor List.
Take a look at who else is in there -
Limbaugh,
Newsmax,
Fortune Magazine,
Human Events,
Guns and Ammo Magazine,
Oliver North,
the Heritage Foundation,
Linda Tripp donors,
G. Gordon Liddy's Toughguy Database, and
the buyers of the Left Behind Video Series. No wonder we always lose...every single rightwing entity is in there! Via
BoingBoing.

A sign of Global recession? For the first time I can remember, it's cheaper to buy a console in the UK than it is the States. Over here, we're used to seeing straight dollar to pound conversions ($299 = £299), so this is a first.
Do you think it's sign of recession or just Sony developing a conscience?

The Playstation 2, just like the G4 is considered a Supercomputer too. It's nice to know that hostile nations won't rip apart the system after they get gunned down in Metal Gear Solid.
