Just because PAL gamers are getting the PS3 five months late doesn't mean we'll miss out on all the best console usernames.

If you're planning on getting a PS3, you'll still be able to get dibs on "360_BALLZ_SUXXORZ69" as your handle. All you need to do is login to the PlayStation store via your PC on November 17 and you'll be set. There's no word yet on how many homeless guys or Chinese students will be camping outside internet cafes in London, Berlin and Sydney, though, so do be sure to get in early.

I'd presume this online registration would also work for poor/unfortunate/disinterested NTSC gamers as well, but as with all other aspects of the PS3's launch it's best not to presume anything. Luke Plunkett
