Japanese Crowds

- Check out this video taken outside of a store called Yodobashi Akiba in Electric Town, Akihabra.
- All of these people are waiting to hear if their ticket number is pulled from a hat, meaning they get to buy one of the few PS3s (previously) in stock.

Japanese PS3 Unboxing

- Engadget Japan have got their hands on a 20GB PS3. I guess they decided to settle for that rather than nothing since, by all accounts, all 80,000 launch units are long gone from stores.

XMB Video Walkthrough

- Engadget has pasted a tasty video of the PS3's OS with a complete walkthrough of all the menu and option goodness you can expect.
- In a totally unrelated note, after seeing a final form factor PS3 test kit in person, I can say that the thing is really shiny. Don't go moving it around too much or it will look as nasty as your PSP with all the finger print smudges after a few minutes play.
