Sony is ramping up their hands-on PS3 promotion with a new kiosk at Bic Camera in Kawasaki. I'm not sure if the design is meant to scare off children or attract gorillas, but we are sure that Sony put some major hardware behind the unit. We're talking about 4 hi-def Bravia displays that must make the costs of such installations incredibly expensive, even for Sony.

Unfortunately the unit only plays video for now. And I'm guessing our local retailers won't be sporting any displays this obnoxiously opulent - which is our loss...big, big loss. – Mark Wilson
