What are Sony up to. I can't figure out whether it's a good idea or a bad idea. What I'm talking about is this pre-order system that they are introducing with the PS2. You can't walk into the shops on the day it comes out and buy but you have to go in the shop from a certain date (September 7th as far as I know) and pre-order it. Whether this is a good idea I don't know. Sony reckon the UK will be getting extra stock which is good seeing as there seem to be shortages in Japan. The £299 price is hefty with no game and no memory card but then again you are getting a dvd player aswell as a games console. The launch line up doesn't look to good to me, with only a couple of games looking interesting, but, I have heard that the release date has slipped to Nov 24th which could be more launch titles.
What are Sony up to, why the delay and is this pre order system a good idea. What are your views?
