has anyone waited in line for video game consoles? Options

[Throwdown]

i'm contemplating going to best buy at 4 am to get a PS3. apparently there are gonna be security guards there to make sure no one shows up before then. i have no idea how this works. when the doors open is there gonna be a stampede, or will the be some sort of order? i have little interest in waiting there several hours only to be trampled by a bunch of nerds. if someone behind me runs past me, i'm beating the shit out of em right in the middle of the store

Waiting in line to buy a console is fucking retarded, in fact buying a console when it first comes out is retarded because the first editions always have issues and fuck up. It is best to wait a while before the price goes down and then buy it when you know it will last you a good 3 years or more. It is the same premise behind going to a movie right when it comes out. I always wait a few extra days so I can avoid the long lines and actually get a good seat. It is not like you win some award for getting to play the PS3 first. All you do is lose 4 hours of your life and 600 bucks on a console that will break in a year...
