Let the PS3 Shortage Hype Begin!

This news from MaxPS3 sure comes as no surprise:

According to GamesFirst, an internal Gamestop email going around has expressed concern over just how many Playstation 3 units they will have available to sell on the launch day in November. According to the email, a single store that received between 50 and 100 Xbox 360’s on the launch day of that console last November can expect to receive no more than 20 PS3 units come November this year.
