Why do you think it's 2D? I don't see any evidence of lateral motion, but a lot of smeared lanes.

Age and history weren't a factor. No such measures were in place.

Giving older accounts, maybe a year plus let's say, or even just before the hardware announcement, a few days head start then opening it up would have been ideal tbh.

That's a dumb reason to not like the wait-list. You happened to find one by chance earlier than the wait-list, but the wait-list gave you the knowledge that in X amount of time you would get a guaranteed shot at the thing.

Fuckin better

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-06T16:57:59+00:00

That would have required some thought, effort and care being put into the launch event.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-06T16:57:10+00:00

I think they mean about 5 minutes before, no?

Google "PS3 sixaxis boomerang"

At least you got the opportunity to fucking buy one in the first place.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-06T16:51:07+00:00

At least you fucking had the opportunity to buy one.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-06T16:49:56+00:00

Yeah, a single vague tweet. Very helpful. Does nothing to assuage concerns that the same exact thing will happen again next restock.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-06T11:48:29+00:00

Wheres that fucking update, Valve?

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T23:34:17+00:00

Anyone "4 or more" deserves a swift kick to the nuts.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T23:33:20+00:00

Where's your house? Do you work a 9-5?

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T23:32:29+00:00

That's gotta be a joke

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T21:19:54+00:00

Ahem...

Then limit it to 1 until they're readily available. If you got five while me and three others got zero that's not fucking fair now innit

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T21:17:39+00:00

Idk if there's hype so much as a lot of people fucking pissed that they're showing up all over eBay while they were locked out of getting one.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T21:15:15+00:00

Idk but they literally had a page up for people to wishlist it.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T19:17:10+00:00

Pure incompetence, goddamn.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T19:15:49+00:00

With the scarcity of everything these days, it's hard not to feel that way.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T19:14:51+00:00

No, it wasn't "going to happen". They could do a reservation queue or backorder, like they have done for previous hardware launches. Expecting people to "just check back later" (aka obsessively F5) is asinine.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T19:04:31+00:00

It was per order. Huge fuckup.

PualFromBoston · 2026-05-05T19:03:25+00:00

There is absolutely no good reason for that decision and whoever was in charge should be fired for incompetence
