According to the Herald Sun, people began queuing outside stores around Australia several hours before the midnight launch of Sony's latest game console.
Several shops provided free food and entertainment, such as the showing of recent Bond movie Casino Royale - complete with popcorn and ice cream - at the Myer department store in central Sydney.
