SmashMyPS3 updates (swear all you want, we won't mind)

You know them. You more or less hate them. They went through with it. (You may start swearing like a sailor all you want; we won't mind, although the autobleeper will still work). SmashMyPS3 went through, lined up and bought their PS3, and as they advertised, smashed their PS3. In front of a camera. For YouTube uploading. And they call it a "social experiment."

Some people were just hoping that they would be something like fifteenth in line in a store with only 14 PS3s or something... or randomly mugged, BB'd, or offered a PC to smash. But, to be fair, those PS3 campers who were waiting in line while SmashMyPS3 sledgehammered one of Sony's newest babies in front of them, they know now how Xbox fanatics must have felt when SmashMy smashed an Xbox 360.

Which only goes to show: SmashMy's off of Santa's list this Christmas. If they even believe in Santa. Worse yet, SmashMyWii's remaining in their hit list. And with Nintendo promising ample supply, chances are they can and will get their hands on not just one, BUT TWO WIIs (as they advertise in their site). Okay, they're off Hanukkah and Kwanzaa as well.

This story sucks? This story rocks!

# OoOoOoOoOoo — Guest 2006-11-17 14:56

YAAAY!!! Death to Sony!!! I donated a dollar to SmashMyPS3.com and it was worth it.

# PS3! — Guest 2006-11-17 14:59

i was first in line to get mine! I hope Qj. doesnt post this crap anymore thank you very much:(

# PS3 is massive — Guest 2006-11-17 15:07

At least they proved that the PS3 is much more massive than x360... In fact they couldn't break it into pieces, like they easily could do it to x360.

# aahahha — Guest 2006-11-17 15:11

Anyone who waited in line for a PS3 is a jobless, education-less, GAYLORD that dosen't deserve the PS3 or the Monetary means to buy one. GFY!!!! Also, if I was the SmashPS3 guy, I would have whipped out my dong afterwards and pissed all over the faces of everyone in line!!!!!!!!

OUUUUUUUUUU EEEEEEEEEEEE!!! !!!!!!

# dsfsd — Guest 2006-11-17 15:15

# dsfdsf you need to go back to school — Guest 2006-11-17 15:43

dsfdsf you need to go back to school or get yourself a spell checker

# haha — Shatterdome 2006-11-17 15:45

Learn to spell before you even attempt to call people un-educated. Fool....

# Well — Guest 2006-11-17 15:45

Its because its hardware is stacked on each other, it does have moar meat to it, but that just makes it heavier, the 360 is pretty much hallow with a single drive, and a heat synch ontop of the processor.

So I dunno, I can see the Wii being broken into a few pieces, maybe like 6-8 pieces.

But Nintendo has done alot to keep their products still running for quite a awhile.

Its like Nintendo Hired at least 100 preists blessing the products with a virgin olive branch dipped in holy water while they chant incantations. But hardware is getting more and more fragile.

# . — Guest 2006-11-17 15:47

Wow you are a *****ing idiot fanboy...y does it have to be sony or microsoft... why cant you just enjoy all systems. Trust me you care way more about sony han they do about you.

# well — Guest 2006-11-17 15:54

First off: Yes, Spell checker would be nice.

Second off: PS3's SD-TV's graphics physically cant get any better then the 360, only because it cant produce that great of a picture. Now when it comes to 1080p, I can see that the PS3 would excell. For me, I own a xbox 360 on a Tv that can only support up to 1080i, 37'' Sharp Aquos. Supports 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i. My 360 serves me well, no freezing, no over heating. I am pleased with my 360.

# Really Sad — Guest 2006-11-17 15:55

Sigh... sad really there people out there who makes things to make peoples life’s fun if you can say that even though they are making money its a shame peoples response to that is to break lots of peoples hard work into pieces to prove what exactly, people do not appreciate what they are given without these consoles imagine how things would have been. Now to break it in front of those people who have been waiting for days is a slap in the face if they didn’t get one.

# Personally.. — Ninkul 2006-11-17 16:20

Personally... i dont really find any of the smash my "xyz" that entertaining and yeah, they're just asking to get hated by the communities and stuff..

# they're bored idiots — Guest 2006-11-17 16:25

Ladies and gentlemen, we have levelled up to a new level of stupid...

# Dude!!! — Guest 2006-11-17 16:28

I want my PS3...... and now I have to wait...... I don't care if they smash the PS3,Wii or Xbox 360, when they get older they will understand what they did......so thats how they get money people donate their money so they can do this... o man! so yeah they smash the PS3 YEAHHHHHH now what. lets wait another 5 years to smash another one yeah...stupid people.

# HAHA — MDN360 2006-11-17 16:30

haha only here in america do we do this hilarious *****

# wow,waste — badam 2006-11-17 16:33

I saw it before,funny,bu t it hurts because they wasted money.

# true... — Guest 2006-11-17 17:13

Ah yes, they wasted money, but not their money.

In fact, it was donated to them, which begs the question: If it was donated to them for that purpose, is it a waste?

I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

The only thing I found funny about this is that there are so few PS3s to go around. To know that there was one destroyed simply for the sake of destroying it is truely funny.

# dum*****s — Guest 2006-11-17 17:33

u kno wit dat 600 dollars thers starvin kids in africa wer they coulda actually *****in done sumtin to help the world instead of piss off a bunch a ppl waitin to get 1 plus out of how few of them they made sum1 in that line prolly didnt get 1 cuz of those hoebags

# get a life — senjutsu 2006-11-17 17:59

if the funniest thing you can do if smash a ps3, get a life, I mean, some people are stupids, morons, or idiots, those ones are not only that, but also useless, Qj should stop encouraging them by posting those useless topics talking about them, anyway the comments are almost always the same...

# erm.. — Guest 2006-11-17 18:43

WTF ARE YOU SAYING? OMG GO TO SCHOOL F@GGOT! Stop writing in that proper *****e txt spk!

# ? — Guest 2006-11-17 19:58

The quality on that video is low, but I could tell that the guy with the black hoodie (the one waiting in line that later joined the) was using/wearing some sony headphones I could tell

# Well you fanboys promote them — Guest 2006-11-17 22:52

The only do it for attention as all the fanboys wait in lines and so on.

Heres a idea dont wait in line and let the hype get you ..

then you wont see money and idoits like this

# haha — Onimushaclan 2006-11-17 23:31

Wasted their money isn't our problem, but they're stupid throwing $600 like that, if i were them i would've made a dummy PS3 and smash it to bits use the money on buying something more useful rather than smashing.

# ya know — Guest 2006-11-18 01:16

LOL I was there, standing in line with those guys, as soon as I saw what that fur jackass was wearing while inside, I couldn't stop laughing he had this thin asian girl following him around like Yoko... I just hope he overdoses, what a fker and I didn't even get a unit, after waiting overnight...

Oh ya the guy who comes up to take a look at the damaged PS3 he was first in line, and I gave him a cheeseburger!

The other dude at the end calling him a douche! (the focker who broke the bought PS3) I was talking too at the end of the line and we got shafted by Bestbuy... !#$%

If I knew he was gonna break the PS3 I swear lol not even me, I swear the whole mob woulda rushed him... luckily I got a preorder but still...

@#$% ARGHHH!!!

# guess where this was. — Guest 2006-11-18 01:19

Toronto, Canada

Dundas Square

Flagship Store @ Bay and Dundas for Eastern Canada!

# Sucked... — Guest 2006-11-18 02:08

It was exactly like the 360 one so it was lame. They should have done something new.

# i didnt know WMD were so cheap — Guest 2006-11-18 04:01

haha i called it right 5/16 ps3's blew up already here in my county alone i dunno about PA or NY or newhere else but i know around here...people are screaming at me bcuz i was right

# What do they mean by " pretty busted " ? — Guest 2006-11-18 04:27

I am surprised how much of it is still solid even after they took a sledgehammer to it. It is better-built than most people think. :)

# err comment — Guest 2006-11-18 04:44

I had the urge to grab that sledgehammer, and SmashHisHead ... Stupid arrogant mother *****ing pimp.

***** ..

# faking black people — Guest 2006-11-18 04:59

oh my god the black people are at it agian..frying pan black peice of sh*! you so black people can't see u in da dark....is that why you try robbing people u black son of a b!tych farking loosers.....

you cant support ur family if you want to HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHA

black ass, ni66er.

# COOL — Guest 2006-11-18 06:16

I actually liked that a lot.

Since i didnt have to camp out for a couple days to get my 360 like a loser i found this video quite entertaining.

If i had the money i would buy a 360, PS3, and a Wii and put them on the ground stacked on top of each other and then i would pour lighter fluid on them then light a match and watch the fireworks.

WHOOOOOOO!

# haha — Guest 2006-11-18 06:36

These guys are friggen geniuses get money for a system to break and one to keep from donations

also you guys shouldnt be pissed off i mean hell he waited in line for it if he had preorderd it then did it ***** yeah id be pissed but he didnt like all those *****ers that are selling there systems on ebay so yeah i fully support these guys and i think its a great video

# HAHAHAHA — Guest 2006-11-18 08:04

HAHAHA you ititots that go to best buy!!!!!! my shopko-5min from my house had 2 ps3s left the day after ps3 came out! one person i olny saw camping out!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA in the future dont go to best buy go to a good ole shopko =) thats where i plan to get my wii the day it comes out.

# lolol — PS2GT 2006-11-18 08:30

# Double your dosage — Guest 2006-11-18 16:10

I didnt spend 3 days in line to watch this either! I didnt spend three days in line at all! And im glad i didnt. ps3 is just WAY TOO HYPED.

Nothing, not even a cure for aids, should have everybody so worked up. sony is an irresponsible company for causing all this commotion and violence and panic

# l — Guest 2006-11-18 16:14

dood it was a joke. an unfunny off topic weak attempt at humor, but still a joke

# sony is gay — Guest 2006-11-18 18:43

well the only reason i would buy a ps3 anyway is just for it to break all sony ***** does ( i wonder if the warrenty covers that)

btw the 360 and the wii kick ass buy one of thoes

# This is stupid BOYCOTT THEM — Guest 2006-11-18 21:47

# This is stupid BOYCOTT THEM — Guest 2006-11-18 21:48

# tough console to break — Guest 2006-11-18 22:35

I guess the PS3's chassis was too strong for the 300 pound gorilla with his sledgehammer.

# ps3's are the best — Guest 2006-11-19 05:22

Ha, pretty good, but smash my 360 was better.

Cant wait for smash my Wii, gonna be great seeing the worst console destroyed :)

# hell yeah — Guest 2006-11-19 15:20

It is a slap in the face. Did you not realise that was the point? Sony sucks, and that's what sony fanboys deserve.

# wow — Guest 2006-11-20 13:05

How far our society has fallen...

# yes but — Vecha 2006-11-24 06:36

Canada is part of the Americas.

# yea — Guest 2006-11-26 05:07

# Good for Sony — WDUK 2006-11-26 12:41

This is good for Sony, it will be 1 less console they have to worry about supporting and servicing =P

Only joking, I want a PS3 myself, but the UK have to wait until...oh yeah, March! >=(

# typing — Guest 2006-11-26 17:16
