Buy A PS3, Prevent Foreclosure... Oops, Too Late

I hesitate to call this the PS3 Douchebag Auction of the Day, as I´m not clear on the circumstances that might have put this family into such dire financial straits, but I came very close. Anytime that someone has the gall to list their PlayStation 3 at $5,000, with a $50,000 Buy It Now price on top of that, they really shouldn´t get a pass, but I´m a softie. At least he didn´t try to include Gundam Crossfire in the auction.

Still, any chump who maxes out his last credit card to but a PS3 and three games, only to flip it on eBay in an attempt to right himself financially has to be at least 60% douche.

From the carefully wordsmithed auction:

Okay we arn´t in foreclosure yet, but we are getting closer and closer each month we have to make our mortgage payment latter and latter. So i called in to work and me and my wife swapped out waiting in line to pick up a ps3 and to max out our last credit card. I know that the asking price is high, but if it is met it would alow us to stay in our home. to not default on the mortgage and to raise our girl in our own home. also if a buisness or buisness person buys this gift at my asking price it will probably be the highest bought ps3 on ebay. if this happens i wil tell all publicity who bought it and their website and or phone number. All and all if you have the money to spend what better to spend it than on the most powerful game consol to date, and to help give someone a hand out of debt.

What better way to spend it? Are you shitting me? Well, it doesn´t appear anyone else took the bait either, despite the token picture of his drooling baby. The auction ended with zero bids. Michael McWhertor

Gallery: Bladestorm The Hundred Years´ War

One time PlayStation 3 exclusive, now coming to the Xbox 360, Bladestorm the Hundred Years´ War follows the traditional Koei formula: you versus lots of troops in a story driven hack and slash with RPG elements. These things are huge in Japan, but in the West? Not so much. That´s why Koei went Euro for their now-gen brawler from Omega Force.

I don´t think Koei is going to gain a new reputation for their graphics prowess, but you should decide for yourself. Michael McWhertor
