EUROPE AT WAR: THE MIDLANDS ARE SECURE!
News just in – the heroic people of Birmingham are not falling for Sony’s faltering scheme either. Colour in another section of the War Room map, Mr Montgomery!
The city’s desperate branch of Gamestation has resorted to papering most of its front windows in crude, lurid coloured propaganda leaflets, in an attempt to attract idiots into its evil clutches – like sportswear-clad moths to the world’s most expensive flame.
This plan will fail – and it’s cost them a lot of money in paper and printer toner. The search is now on to find a shop that has actually sold its entire pre-order allocation. The search will, of course, be FUTILE, thanks to the IRON WILLED people of Europe.

our local EB (Sydney AU) is looking quite trendy with PS3 propaganda hanging everywhere around the store, Its hard not to walk around and not get hit over the head with some PS3 adverts.
I wonder how long till they resort to cheap HURRY GET YOURS A4 print outs from their office printer.

Wow…. it’s like PS3 puked in the store!!!

Ha! Nice to see my fellow Midlanders aren’t all complete knobs.

I have to salute the determination of the local branch of Game. They ask me every time I visit and it brightens my day when they look all hurt when I decline and enquire about Wii stock.

for every shop that asks me about pre-ordering a ps3, i feign interest until they get out their little books and a glint of hope in their beedy eyes, and then i say “actually, have you got any wiis?”.
i build them up, and break them down.

It’s weird, I didn’t think it would happen to me but today I went into Virgin on Oxford St and while buying my XBLA points the guy meeky asked me “I don’t suppose you’d like to pre-order a PS3…”
Twas funnny, I’m telling ya.

I was about to pre-order a PS3 today, but I declined right at the last minute. Instead, on the way home I paid for a prostitute.
Sure I contracted Aids, but in the long run it’s probably less painful.

i bought GRAW2 this morning! & when i bounced up to the cahier to pay with a big smile on my face!, the dirty sweating bastard behind the counter tried to take advantage of me… (sorry this was very distressing, i’m still in shock) he,..he ask me,… “would u like to pre-order a PS3!!”….. i felt like Mr Glitter himself had touched my front bottom….. Men like this need to be stopped!!!….i hope if this happens to more gamers out there, you too will have the courage to speak out against these evil, twisted, corrupt ball bag botherers….

The conclusion is that it is time to stop the retreat. NOT A SINGLE STEP BACK! This should be our slogan from now.
We need to protect every strongpoint, every metre of European soil stubbornly, till the last droplet of blood, grab every piece of our soil and defend it as long as it is possible. Our Motherland is going through hard times. We have to stop, and then throw back and destroy the enemy, whatever it might cost us. Sony are not as strong as the panic-mongers say. They are stretching their strength to the limit. To withstand their blow now means to ensure victory in the future.
Can we stand and throw the enemy back toward east? Yes, we can, as our plants and factories in the rear areas are working perfectly and are supplying our army with more and more Nun chucks, Wiimotes, VC titles and Consoles.

Never have I been so proud to say I’m from Birmingham. How sad that Sony couldn’t have found them the money for a poster.
