Playstation 3 is here…finally!

Two years after the Playstation 3 was first launched in the US and Japan, it’s finally arrived at our shores. More surprisingly, they managed to build up a bit of hype surrounding the launch here at 1 Utama last Saturday.

Apparently some folks had been camping outside 1 Utama two nights ahead of the launch. I don’t envy them sleeping on the cold hard floor at the mercy of the mosquitoes.

As it turned out, Saturday itself wasn’t too hot a day though the launch area was very smoky as the crowd started building up when the mall opened at 10am.

As always, no launch of big boys’ toys is ever complete without the scantily-clad promoters standing helplessly around. Sadly they don’t often succeed in prettying up the place.
