So I did it. I got an e-mail at 5:30pm which meant I was on my way home at the time from work. Got back home, found the e-mail and by 6:30pm I had preordered a PS3.

Yes, I preordered a PS3. I willingly preordered a PS3. I know a lot of people will think I'm insane for it but I'm happy with it. I'm excited. I can't wait to get it and then know I'll be in line to get some awesome games like MGS4 and FFXIII. Games that I'm really looking forward to play. In the mean time, Ridge Racer 7, Motorstorm, Call Of Duty 3, Resistance Fall of Man and Sonic The Hedgehog can tide me over till then.

I got the preorder from http://www.gameplay.com. I have to admit I was disappointed at being forced into buying a bundle. I remember preordering the PS2 and getting a choice of what I wanted. Not this time. I would have just bought Ridge Racer 7, Resistance, and Sonic, instead I had to choose between Ridge Racer 7, Motorstorm and Call of Duty, or Resistance, Virtua Tennis and Virtua Fighter. Not a fan of the Virtua series so went with the Ridge Racer one as I was more like to play Motorstorm and Call of Duty, plus it was cheaper.

So yeah, I hope I was quick enough to get it first day otherwise I have a feeling I could be waiting for some time. There was at least a one hour gap and most people would probably be on their way home from work. I guess I'll find out come March 23rd.
