All next week, our pen pals at PS3 Fanboy are celebrating the PStriple's birfday in style: they're giving away an 80GB PS3 and an Uncharted prize pack (with all sorts of cool Uncharted swag!), all wrapped up in commentary on the console's performance thus far.

The PS3 cake just outsold the Xbox 360 in Japan.
Kamall @ Nov 17th 2007 11:16AM
Shoulda shaped it like a PS3.
Fernando you insecure jealous tripe, say something bad about delicious, moist cake, I dare you!!!
Ut3hound @ Nov 17th 2007 11:23AM
The Sony PS3 cake was late? Its nice to see the company's engineers are on the same page as their bakers. Its good to have a consistent corporate culture.

Apparently you think of me all day long.

Looks rather delicious:p
hvnlysoldr @ Nov 17th 2007 11:35AM
Just because I'm a Nintendo fan won't mean I won't try to win a PS3. Just saying.

Hey, same here. I'm all for free stuff.
Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Nov 17th 2007 12:03PM
same here.
Mr Khan @ Nov 17th 2007 12:13PM
Agree, free swag ftw

I would sell that bitch on eBay. Make some serious "cake". Alright, that was a dumb joke.
DiscoShark @ Nov 17th 2007 11:51AM
Did they leave instructions with how to cut and taste the cake properly? This is a CAKE not a PIE.
Yes, I zinged Lair.

As long as no-one throw it through their tv its all good.
Jonah Falcon @ Nov 17th 2007 11:59AM
Sony really has bad timing. Why send out a cake after Portal had been released, especially with their long, long, long record of lying. (Still waiting for Tretton to send me my money.)
F. Rocker or Fernando R.? @ Nov 17th 2007 12:07PM
I'm pretty sure that they baked the cake on a modified oven-like PS3...
mr mobius @ Nov 17th 2007 12:11PM
They are giving out the cake because if they tried to sell the cake then they'd end up with a warehouse full of cake because they'd over price the cake and no one would want the cake because the cake had insufficient quality of icing, even if the image on the icing was of a higher resolution.
F. Rocker or Fernando R.? @ Nov 17th 2007 12:14PM
Your comment has the word "cake" more than a cake book.
But, yes, your comment ir right. Plus the cake will have slow diggestion framerates.
mr mobius @ Nov 17th 2007 12:17PM
This thread is aimed towards PS3 fans primarily and everyone knows that PS3 fans have a shorter attention span than the average gamer so it seemed necessary to mention the topic many times in a short period so that they could keep up with what was being talked about.
F. Rocker or Fernando R.? @ Nov 17th 2007 12:19PM
Ah ok... that makes sense =)
Noshino @ Nov 17th 2007 2:14PM
You had to clarify your previous comment for Fernando to understand...and he is not Sony fan =)
Shockgamer @ Nov 17th 2007 12:34PM
Happy Birthday PS3. From $600 to $400 in one year.
Maybe I'll make a spot for you in my entertainment center next year, when you're floating at $200.
Jonah Falcon @ Nov 17th 2007 1:51PM
The cupcake is a lie.
umm....hello??? @ Nov 17th 2007 2:57PM
yeah, except Sony didn't give us $100 store credit like Apple did for the quick price drop. But whatever, I have my 60gig and am happy with it...
oh, and check out www.amazon.com for a chance to get a PS3/Wii/360 on the cheap...
Chase Schrader @ Nov 17th 2007 12:37PM
the cake is all gone and you dont get any
kastonie @ Nov 17th 2007 12:51PM

Pendras @ Nov 17th 2007 1:29PM
The cake hits your abs for massive damage!
Ah, that joke never gets old.
James @ Nov 17th 2007 1:35PM
Yes, it does.
hvnlysoldr @ Nov 18th 2007 3:17PM
Abs do not have weak spots. CRAmped aBS maybe flipped but not plain old ordinary abs.
Thomas @ Nov 17th 2007 1:31PM
IT'S SO DELICIOUS AND MOIST!
ColossalHat @ Nov 17th 2007 1:41PM
Look at me still talking when there's science to do.
Jonah Falcon @ Nov 17th 2007 1:52PM
I'm GLaD I'm not you.
umm....hello??? @ Nov 17th 2007 2:59PM
...and when you're gone I'll be...still alive.
James @ Nov 17th 2007 1:34PM
Shouldn't all the folks who've been put out and let down by buying a PS3 be getting a cake too?
ColossalHat @ Nov 17th 2007 2:50PM
Hell, I'd say I was disappointed in the PS3 if I got a moist, delicious cake for doing so.
Damn! Now the world knows my sellout price.
Anni @ Nov 17th 2007 1:54PM
Yeah, happy first birthday! Too bad the models that were actually available a year ago have been discontinued.
Matt B @ Nov 17th 2007 2:06PM
Also Happy Birthday to anti-Sony fanboys. For without Sony, you wouldn't have anything much to say.
Mr Khan @ Nov 17th 2007 3:22PM
Yeah, but the stock of today's Anti-Sony fanboy was born not on Nov 17th, but on May 8th, 2006, the day of the infamous (and spawner of infinite internet memes) Ken Kutaragi keynote
Sieged Eagle @ Nov 17th 2007 4:17PM
Although I kind of dislike the PS3, I can't deny that cake looks so delicious and moist. Feliz cumpleaños PS3!
Now, where is that recipe for the cake...
Slaziman @ Nov 17th 2007 4:41PM
Holy shit Fernando, like 5 3 heart posts! You are on a roll! And to think some people would like to see you banned :(
Jouten @ Nov 17th 2007 5:36PM
Fernando must have found a way to vote for himself multiple times to get the 3 hearts...
Seriously...
Alex @ Nov 17th 2007 7:03PM
I still want to play Uncharted. I played through the demo before the game came out. Then when it came out the store didn't get it in yet. Then I wait 2 days then try again and still nothing. I've just been to lazy to go back in now. I'm not much of a store person.
