The launch number of 400,000 in the US has been downgraded.

From the same guys that brought us smashmyipod/xbox/etc., comes smashmyps3.

These guys take up donations to buy a ps3 and then turn around and smash it to bits in front of those standing in line for a chance at one of their own.

Call me crazy but I lol'd when I saw this.

Downgraded to 399,999? The sources that I know have said they got downgraded to 200,000. The most precise number I found was 143,000 actually.

It did take the guy quite a few strikes to crack it open. With a sledgehammer! I'm impressed.

Notice the link to smashmyps3. The 399,999 figure is because it was originally 400K, but these guys are deciding to destroy one.

I know that, but I am saying that there weren't 400,000 ps3's to begin with.

You're missing the funny in the thread. Quit trying to be so exact with the actual launch numbers dude.

If it was posted in off-topic or something like that then I didn't see it. I very rarely post or even read that forum. Oh well.

Hehe what a waste. It must have been psychologically detrimental to the by-standers who witnessed this horrific action of vandalism. Excellent.

I didn't even watch it. I think it's sort of sad though, well, maybe not. But I couldn't imagine being the one to help design the system only to see a video of some people carelessly smashing it into pieces.

......Okay I just watched it. Never mind the individuals across the world who designed it, I would have hated to have been the people outside still waiting to buy one. :(
