PS3 will not reach Europe until March

Uk = owned
sony = gays

There is another side to this, now that Nintendo have no launch competition in Europe and retailers will also suffer over christmas there's nothing preventing the Wii's launch price from being inflated.....

Cant say im surprised. This is typical $ony. I used to be a big PS fan, but all theyve done is drive me away with their inferior products.
The XBOX and the XBOX 360 have been the two greatest products in gaming history IMHO. Ive had my 360 since launch, Been an avid xbox ??live-er?? and not had a singe problem. Microsoft seem to treat gamers with dignety. Look at all the E3 stuff they put on the market place for us

!!!360 ALL THE WAY!!!

[SSaxdude]

This will only lead to more 360 and Wii sales.

WOW! That sucks.

Sony's not doing too good with their release dates. Everything seems to get pushed back and delayed.

Come on SONY, stop putting the extra man hours into coding that homebrew-proof PSP firmware and start making more PS3's.

Owell, I'm glad I live in the U.S.A.

The only good thing about all this crap is that the euro launch games have an extra few months now to really be polished and we should get the best games at launch including Heavenly Sword.

This wouldn't have been so bad if they'd have just admitted a long time ago that a simultaneous worldwide release wasn't possible.

Pisses me off that they can't give europe 100,000 like they have Japan. Or even some a few weeks later in December.

Possibly, Heavenly sword already won't make the November PS3 launch date, add at least three months onto its "Q4" launch date for "localisation" you might be lucky and get it at Euro launch.

I do not like M$ so I decided that I will not buy x360... but now i don't like Sony more than M$ so... or maybe just buy Wii and wait till 2008 for Sony?

[aries2k4]

Man, this sucks.
I think $ony is cutting off their own feet.
Like many people have said, screw $ony I´m getting a x-box and a Wii.

[Hungry Horace]

lol... just seen this reported on the BBC News!

silly of Sony imho, and hardly surprising, but still disapointing for those who have been waiting. (not me - it'll be too expensive anyway!)


i would wait rather than getting a 360 or Wii myself. I never understand people "filling the gap".... it seems like pouring money down the drain to me.

Heavenly Sword had already been announced as being pushed back to March 07 before the PS3 delay was official.
