PlayStation 3 launch happenings and ugliness

Last night was a big night for gamers, with the launch of Sony's third console, and their entry into the next-gen war.

The kickoff at the Metreon in San Francisco sounds pretty cheesy, but at least it had glitz. And other kickoffs went well.

Like last year's Xbox 360 launch, there was theft ugliness going on. Seriously, if these consoles go online, these crooks are screwed. Can't wait.

Here are links to a few of the launch articles. I'll post more when official numbers come in.

Oh, and the story about a "PlayStation 3 shopper shot outside Wal-Mart" on CNN is irresponsible. The crooks were trying to mug people for cash, and the PS3 line was an opportunity.
