It all went well! Us leaving at 9 paid off, I was the first person to get served! :D

We waited outside GAME for about 3 hours. The first two hours no one showed…and i thought “It’s true, Europe doesnt care about the PS3 ;(” but I was wrong. About 45 mins before opening people started flocking in! There must have been at least 70 - 80 people there when they opened the doors. In comparison to the Wii thats, oh, about 3 and a half times more people. The re-opening at 7 also brought about 20 more people in the next two hours.

Once they finally opened the doors at 11:30, no one really cared about looking at the deals, they just ran straight for the tills. :P A painful 30 mins pasted as we watched the staff get out our numbered bags with our PS3’s and games inside.

When the time finally came, everything was scaned, i used my reward points to get an extra game and everything was good…until she told me the total. “£137 then please”. I crapped myself, I thought i had miscaluclated meaning i might have to leave Genji behind! However, she had forgotten to take off the £50 deposit. God, did i sweat. xD

I went then went back to mine, set it all up and sustained the horrible wait of downloading and installing the firmware. God, that was torture. >_< I only had a chance to play a little bit of Genji before I had to go to sleep for work the next morning, but it was a good 20 minute play, IMO Genji: Days of the Blade is a very good game from what i’ve seen so far, despite the sometimes annoying camera angle.

But, yeah, overall im pleased with the launch. We had some laughs waiting and talking and best of all, I got my PS3. :P

I’ll be reviewing the games I got (Resistance: Fall of Man, Motorstorm and Genji: Days of the Blade) at a later date.
