So....I want to buy a PS4...

Has to be due to the fact you live in WI (why? ;))....

They are all over the place in the local stores near me (GA)...

That's not to say supply isn't still limited or that they don't sell out week to week, but I've seen them fairly regularly in stock the past several times I've been in Walmart and Target over the past several weeks now.... just saw 3 in stock earlier this week when we were getting a new cell phone at Target...

You realize, if it's not on the internet, it's not true. Just because you see them physically in the store, they are not really there. The internet says so.

lol true...

but seriously... I think if you ask your local store when shipments come in and simply show up ... Shouldn't be too hard to find them now.... I was surprised by this thread topic considering what I've seen locally...

I've *almost* bought a PS4 myself these past few times but can't quite justify it yet... Maybe with tax rebates... ;)

LOL.....who told you that?? Nobody lives in Wisconsin..:laugh:
I live in Tucson, Arizona.....and besides the water drought we have here it looks like from Tucson to San Diego there isn't a single PS4...

In defense of Kvally, Wisconsin and Arizonas population are about the same.

However, Arizona > Wisconsin.

I will only be here 4 short years my friends. Once my son graduates high school, I am moving south. The winters here are complete bulls***.

Oh come on you p****. You think summers in Texas or Arizona aren't also bulls*** (lived in the latter)?

This thread needs some good Wisconsin pics.

Ok, so I finally went to the local gamestop in the afternoon, (I was having lunch downtown). I asked if PS4 is available. They said no, & I ask when will it be available. The gentlemen said he has no idea & no information from Sony, not even an approcimation.

At least you guys still have stock coming every now & then, but its been a very long time since PS4 was available (since launch week maybe) in Germany (& in COntinental Europe I think, but UK seems to have stock). Sony is really pushing their stock thin to gain worldwide market share.

When has AZ or Texas had what seems to be an entire winter of 40-60 below wind chill factors, and non-stop snow for the past 3 months?

My work is in that picture, and I am typing from there right now. That is the only good thing about living in Madison, the Capitol and the Isthmus...IN THE SUMMER.
 
Yea Madison is about the only thing good about Wisconsin. Maybe Milwaukee as well for baseball and beer.

I don't know man....down here in southern Arizona and the Sonoran Desert we get up to 110 sometimes more during the summer. Phoenix is ridiculous. You step out of your car and burst into flames.
Yeah...it is nice during the winter...where it rarely gets below 40 during the night and about 75 in day.....but I miss the cold sometimes.
That dry heat is a killer...
 
I think the higest building at the city I work in Wetzlar is 7 storey high or something.

The old town. Haven't change much for the past 5 hundred years.

The city I live (which is not picture worthy) have been bombed heavily in the 2nd world war, losing 90% of historical building or something. The post war buildings are ugly as hell (basically boxes). But I guess people just want to build something quick to get back to normal live after the war, & looking nice was not high on the piority list.

My dad lives in Flagstaff. It's just over a 2 hour drive, and the temp change is dramatic! And he gets more snow than we do (though his melts the same day or next day). In fact, I had considered a move to Sedona, which is a 20-30 degree temp increase over Flagstaff, and is only about a 40 minute drive from Flagstaff.

Yeah, the temperature in Phoenix and Tempe are insanely hot, that I know. But since there is no ocean right there, we have Florida as our destination. Though I love Sedona A LOT. I would do California, but the language barrier is getting increasingly worse in southern CA. San Fran area would be nice too, but honestly, Florida keep travel expenses cheaper for friends and family (it's closer). Not to mention all the cruise ports, and all inclusive access for us being down there.

Been going to different stores for weeks!

Best Buy
Costco

Called stores....
even stores 20 miles out..

After work today I finally broke down and went to my nearest wal mart to talk to a manager just to hear from him.
He informed me that they MIGHT get some near mid to late March possibly April....o_O

Everybody that has a PS4....I officially hate you...
/rant.

Has ANYBODY seen an actual PS4 in stores in the past month??
If you have a PS4...do you feel lady luck sitting on your lap? (I hope she puts poison in your food)
j/k.
Seriously though this f***in blows...

It looks like several gamestops have stock now in the Tuscon area although 4 of the top 8 say low stock, if you are still looking you should start calling around asap.

Parents just got back from a two week vacation in Prescott, AZ. Few years ago they were looking at moving to Flagstaff but nothing panned out. Was in a junk job at the time so I probably would have went with them. Would have been great because there's a nice ski resort just outside of the city.

Prescott was on my list of possible moves. I was in Prescott in April of 2012. Hung out at the "square" in the middle of town for the day. Ended up being a bit...hmmm....too old fashion for me.

My dad loves Flagstaff. I think he has been living there for about 10 years now. Lives in a golf community, and drives a jeep wrangler...on and off road through town. I like Flagstaff, but it's too small town for me. They drive to Laughlin, and Vegas quite a bit though.

It gets cold as hell in Spring/Housten Texas. I just got back from Arkansas a week ago and it was snowing. Was actually my first time experiencing snow. I thought it was funny though because it wasn't even that cold out there yet there was tons of snow. It gets waaay colder in texas -_- being from california it takes a lot of getting used to.

PS4's all over the Philippines, it's crazy. To bad they're selling for $600 in the shops here but people are buying 'em up.

This city is also near my place, and nicer, with a small castle at the top. A very typical Medical city.

Normally, the old towns in my opinion look the best during Christmas period, with Christmas market opened, the lightings & carnival mood. Looks better there are some snow cover, but not too much.

You could move to Nebraska, a friend of mine moved there and it was $50.00 a month more to rent an apartment with a view of the corn field lol.
 
I've been to WI several times (for work purposes) - and never want to go back... ;)

Only Iowa is worse..

This thread is officially derailed I think.. :D

That sucks, did they all just sell out too quickly? I know they won't hold them for people right now, it's first come first serve.
