Microsoft sent a barge down the river by the Eiffel Tower where Sony was having its launch party (about 30-50 people showed up, while Sony was expecting a thousand at least)... :) I don't know why it was in English, but it was. That's what made it so funny... :)
The other major Paris launch event, done by that store (with the picture of the "line" with one person in it), indeed had a whole launch event... and five people came. :D
MS also ... interfered ... in England -- some people working for MS provided chairs for the people waiting in line for PS3's at one of the main London launch things... Sony didn't notice because the chairs just had a URL on them -- http://www.shkyw.org/ . Check it out to see the results... :)
