Hong Kong International Airport installs PS3 game poles, delays more flights

Grrr... It's not fair, is it? You'd think Hong Kong's award-winning airport already has enough to keep travelers jolly (there's free WiFi too), but as the old Chinese proverb goes: "Those who don't move forward will only go backward." As of this week, Hong Kong International Airport has 14 free-of-charge PlayStation 3 game poles that are preloaded with Final Fantasy XIII, Avatar, Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed 2, etc. Hey Sony, too bad you didn't start from the top of the "world's worst airports" list -- passengers at London Heathrow would've been forever in your debt.

If this was at Heathrow or pretty much any EU/US airport we'd be looking at the pricing "$50 per 15 minutes of a gameplay"

How dirty would those controllers get?

Singapore's Changi Airport been having a fairly sized XBOX playing area for years now. Plus there are so many free internet terminals scattered around as well as dedicated internet points with universal power adapter for you to hook up your laptop and play WOW! :)

Oh and the wireless is pretty good too.

Is it just me, or does the "chick" playing the PS3 have a package?

Just saying.
