Yes, Microsoft has been up to some amusing stunts in an attempt to spoil the European PS3 launch (didn't Sony already do that by delaying it three months then removing the Emotion Engine? Just kidding Sony! See we're all at it now).
According to Spong, the company sent out free beers to journalists (I didn't get any, but then it's Fosters apparently so no real loss) and also gave camping seats to punters queuing for machines last night - the chairs came emblazoned with the url, www.shkyw.org, which for those with limited internet access features the message:
"Xbox welcomes PS3 to the next generation. Sony... You're late! Let the games begin."
Finally, Microsoft hit the launch in Paris by sailing a boat emblazoned with 'Xbox 360 loves you' down the Seine. Here's a video from French television.
Hilarious!
