3. well I wish the best to Sony on their recent launch. Looking at those pics makes it obvious that it was a succes.. It pisses me off when anti-PS3 sites post stupid sh!+ about PS3 launches, already I've read reports that it was a total failure in Korea, saying that no one attended the event. I look at these pics and it makes me want to shove them up their a$$.

4. How can you call it a total failure? I'll wait for the sales figures before I call it a total failure.

9. There was more than one place to buy a PS3 on launch day. I bought a PS3 and I didn't go to a launch event.
So it is more like 26100 gamers bought a PS3 on Korean launch day.

10. Looking around the web, it's definitely the first pictures that are being passed off by the majority of sites.
So... how long do you think it will take for the ps3 to overtake the 360 there? Probably about as long as it did in Japan. Wonder how that story will be spun?

15. Lol.. or the pictures of no one showing up are from after everyone left. I know, it's when they all realized they weren't at the Wii launch party.
Whatever.

16. >Wonder how long it will take for the sales to drop to 8000 a month,
first of all, I think you meant "a week". and secondly, if you were talking about xbox. yes, then you were right about 8000 a month. ;)

17. why are there so many PS3 haters? Imo, it was the worst thing gaming cooperations could have done... - make games appeal to a new generation who know nothing about the history of gaming and who just hate and attack consoles when they know so little about them. The PS3 is the most powerful and Sega have said they believe it will prevail in the end, as do i. It's the most powerful console out of the 3 and just judging by the PS1 and PS2 sales, when the price drops, the PS3 will be a complete sell-out. The inferior Wii and 360 are only selling because they're cheaper than the PS3..

19. "What's this i hear about Koreans actually buying Japanese products???"
They can choose between Japanese products (Wii,PS3) or american products (Xbox 360) for a gaming console
Tought choice...not. Go with the PS3

20. That is right Poser...I mean poster. They didn't sell that in 8 months though. They did sell only 24M before abandonment.
I don't think Sony would do that. What do you play those Xbox games on now?

1. Korean people really didn't miss much in the first couple of months of the PS3. They are coming in at a pretty good time. (they also get the 80GB PS3)
I am just suprised it took Sony this long. I mean Korea is right near Japan.
