PartyWe've all been waiting for the PlayStation 3 launch and mind you, it's just very much around the corner. Regardless of the bad press hounding it, we certainly still do want to give this next-gen baby a try. But before that, maybe you'd like to celebrate first all the waiting you have done and reward yourself by attending the PS3 New York Launch Party.

The event will be held at SonyStyle Plaza, 550 Madison Ave., New York City. While the gates would open by 9 p.m. sharp, you might want to get there early for only the first 400 people in line would be admitted. And also, don't forget to bring your ID with you. Only those 18 years old and above will be allowed to join the party.

Aside from host Ludacris, D-nice and Charlie Murphy, you might be thinking, "why the heck would I want to go to that party?" Because you can actually purchase the console there, that's why! Around midnight before the event ends, a good number of PS3s will be sold to the attending public. Unfortunately, we didn't get the exact number of the consoles available but we heard, there are not so many of them.

So again, SonyStyle Plaza on Thursday, November 16. It's the PS3 New York Launch Party. Be there.

c'mon flame me

Instead of issuing tickets, they should scatter some mideval type weaponry around the event and place the PS3s in the middle. Then let hundreds of people in at once. Maybe that will prove how insane people become about playstation. It's like a religion really.

400 people, but not 400 consoles?

If 400 people show up for this thing and they dont' have 400 consoles to give out, there's gonna be hell to pay. Why would I go to the launch party if I'm not going to be buying a freakin' playstation!

Wednesday already ~50 people in kine

Walked by Sony store Wednesday after work and there were already people lined up with chairs and sleeping bags on 56th street sidewalk. Some people had brought tents and generators but Sony wouldn't allow those to be set up.
