The Playstation 3 delay continues

[Dagless]

On asking if the PS3 will definitely be out in March in Europe…

“Given that all of our previous statements about launching in Europe simultaneously with the US and Japan turned out not to be the case, I would not like to make any definitive statements on that. It’s not my job to comment on hardware supply issues other than to say some very smart people are working very hard to catch up. In fact, the ramp up is already starting to happen in supply and output, just obviously too late for us to have launched in Europe at the same times as the US.”



I love how this worldwide launch is taking shape :) I'm very impressed thus far.

We could be waiting even longer.

and oblivion and sonic and NBA have all been delayed to '07 I believe.

Does anyone else see this launch as a "oh s***, we can't let MS have ANOTHER christmas to itself"? Why didn't they just do a launch in NA (which is where they seem most concerned) with all 480,000 units, the do a Japan launch in January, then a Europe launch (hopefully) in March? Spread it out. Don't play MS's game . Then more games would be polished, bugs could be worked out, a better supply of systems to blitz the world with.

Im not game historian, but the PS3 launch must surely be the worst in history, or certainly up there. The worst thing for me is even with all the hardware problems aside, are there actually any good games out for the PS3 any time soon? The launch line up stinks!

Well the exclusive launch titles stink, but things like COD3 & Rainbow 6 vegas are safe bets (even if the developer has gone on record saying they are better on the 360)...

The japan launch for the Sega Dreamcast was very bad also.

And with all these delays, it's seeming like windows vista. Although I don't have enough to get a PS3 right now, I still want to get one in the future, so the launch doesn't really affect me.

Sony Playstation 3. Now shipping with Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate. :D

Lets just hope Resistance's coop mode and online mode can make it up for the waiting...
