A well-placed source - who wishes to remain anonymous - has informed CVG that an announcement from Sony on complete, concrete PS3 Euro launch details is "likely to go ahead at the end of January".
++ UPDATE ++ Since posting this news piece, a Sony spokesperson has confirmed the information provided by our source. ++ UPDATE ENDS ++
But the timing of the company's announcement is not yet etched in stone, they added. Fingers crossed though, eh?
I can't wait to see the console launch in Europe, not because i want one, because i'm curious to see how many people are going to actually buy one.
Like most people, i think it's too expensive and a waste without me also buying an HDTV. Of course i wouldn't say no thank you if i got one as a gift, but i won't be buying one until it's half the price and i have bought an HDTV.
it better be something really amazing. Something to make my balls tingle!!! no more bull sh*t about delays please Sony iv waited long enough for the PS3! This better be good.........
So end of march then, just in time for easter? New PS3 owners can look forward to a summer draught of software then a few weeks after it comes out, dont worry i managed to make to with the games i got for my xbox when that came out in march 2002, but it was hard going thougg, and the ps3 launch line up dosnt look great either.
it better be something really amazing. Something to make my balls tingle!!! no more bull sh*t about delays please Sony iv waited long enough for the PS3! This better be good.........
I think you are in for a dissapointment then, knowing sony & the way they do business it will be more like a kick in the balls than a tingle.
If they launch in March it wont be anything spectacular as most of the games that people say they want it for are not anywhere near finished & most of the others will be games that are already out on 360 anyways
So what's the price gonna be then when it releases over here? Like you really know? I personally can't wait. Sick of the Xbozos who just rant and rave about the 360 before the PS3 was even launched. Well here's one for you Xbozos. If in a year's time the PS3 is still around and decent ass games appear on it and the price is cheaper will you get one then? FFS, just enjoy the unique games that each console offers or climb back to your amoeba-sized hell holes where you climbed out from. Personally I'm getting a PS3 and (yes!) because it has got blu-ray, yes because it's got MSG, FF, Devil may cry, Singstar, etc. And yes because it can hook up wih my PSP and yes because my family can use it. Yes because innovative titles do come out on the playstation brand and yes I simply like their sleek designs. Will get a 360 later but probs 2nd hand at £100 or less. Most of the flippin games will come out on my PC anyways which are easier to control. Come on PS3 come hook up with my 42" plasma and enjoy next-gen gaming as it was meant to be!
PS3 launch details, I like thousands of other Europeans honestly don't care, until:-
a) It retails for under £300.
b) It has an "impressive" exclusive* title catalogue. *titles I haven't already played on another console
c) It's expensive "compulsory" new movie format can run all HD titles*. As long as there are 2 competing movie formats (at least 4 years) bluray means nothing!
Sony, when all this critea is covered let me know, maybe when the PS4 is ready (oh and try and improve your consumer relations in the mean time).
*Universal's Movie & TV productions(amongst others) are HD DVD exclusive.

No I won't get one because their online sucks. Don't forget to get the cables to hook it up to your HDTV because the PS3 doesn't include them in any form. "High Def gaming doesn't start until the PS3 launches (Sony)". It appears HD gaming doesn't start with the PS3 until you go out and drop another $40 on component cables or WAY MORE on the HDMI cable. Blu Ray? LOL enjoy the hell out of it while it last I'm afraid in a scant few years all this stuff will be downloadable and your Blu Ray collection will be as obsolete as I'm sure your Betamax collection is.
who cares, no thanks, i dont care what anyone says there is absolutely no wow factor with the PS3, all hype, most powerful, blah blah, prove it sony, prove how powerful it is now and not in 4 years time when the xbox360 will be replaced with a console that trunches the PS3 in 'expected' capibilities
had enuf of sony, had a PS1 and PS2 and have a ton of games, but just had enuf

in my opinon over priced and i can get the games i want to play on the 360.
there won't be exlusives as the cost is too high to produce a game these days and the games companies are there to turn a profit not just make it for the love of it.
people who will shell out for this macjine are the uninformed mums who want to please little jimmy and not upset him.
the number of mums who i work with who are getting one for jimmy is silly, they think it's only gonna cost them 200 tops!

oh i assume you mean like how disney and a shed load of others are BLU-RAY exclusive then... (blimey those kids dont half like watching a disney film ad infinitum)

I guess the Wii would be a good alternative for these mums to get their kids. By March I'm sure some shops will be doing bundle deals for Wii + Wii Sports + One Other Game for £200
What made me laugh is that Universal studios are planning to release their movies on a disk that is HD-DVD on one side and Blueray on the other. If other studios do the same thing then I guess both formats will win, and both Sony (Blueray) and Microsoft (HD-DVD) can finally stop bitching like two little school girls. Cause quite frankly i'm getting bored.

No the BD or HD DVD won't become obsolete before one of them wins because some people would rather like to go to their friends house to play or borrow the DVDs from their friends, family, etc. than buy a soft copy of the game which would have to be dl'd again if the game is deleted for any reason.
Well I have been expecting this consoles for many months now . I expect them to announce it for early march ...that would be nice we would be one month and a half from launch ..
As for the lineup ,it will be truly spectacular

I dont care if someone says some of these are already in the X360 ....so what ?Few people in Europe have the X360 so its like they were new for most people .Besides ,if I buy a new console and can buy some 20 fantastic games I couldnt care less that some are in other consoles also ...
The console is expensive ,but thinking with some brain you save money ....the money of the 60euros per year of the Live service that in 5 years would be some 300 euros ...
If people don't care about PS3 why do they waste their time posting comments about it ??
Because as much as people keep complaining about it, me included, it has so much potential and could be such a great games machine and we cling to that hope that it will eventually fulfil this potential, but Sony just seem to be doing their level best to blow holes in the ship with dumb statements, questionable decisions and a seemingly crazy amount of contempt for customers and developers.
No it won't. The launch games fall into 3 categories...
1) I've either already finished them ages ago on the 360 2) They're typical EA rubbish 3) Vaguely interesting
Of the launch games the only two that stand out are resistence and Motorstom. I've played Resistence on an import machine and was completely underwhelmed (got bored and turned it off within an hour). Motorstorm may be ok, but I'm not holding out too much hope.
That's the main reason I won;t be getting one at launch. I just don't see the point with the limp games lineup. I'm going to wait until there's something worth getting...
Few people in Europe have the X360 so its like they were new for most people
Only a few million
The console is expensive ,but thinking with some brain you save money ....the money of the 60euros per year of the Live service that in 5 years would be some 300 euros ...
True. But from what I've heard is the live makes the ps3 service look very cheap and thrown together by comparison. They've got some catchup to do that's for sure. Plus theres rumours that there will be charges on the PS3 service to play some games online etc, so it may not turn out to be as free as you are expecting...
haha spot on! nah, for once i think sony has designed a decent looking console..it looks better than the others when its standing up, but lieing horizontally is a different matter...
i too will be holding off even thinking about buying one until theyre cheap, or have more games.
Between the endless onslaught of EA franchises and decent sequels, there are actually a lot of apparently good games out at launch. this is probably the best launch line up ever seen for a console and no amount of moaning will change that!

Disney & some others maybe doing BR exclusive for now but if the format does not take off that well they will also release their movies on HD-DVD its all about money at the end of the day & if they can make a killing on HD-DVD they wont back another format if it means not making as much cash as possible

15 of those games are or will be available for 360 look just as good on 360 play probably better on 360 seeing as the Xbox pad is a better design in my opinion, & saying that few people in Europe own a 360 is 1 of the most stupid statements I have ever seen posted or heard on any forum ever.
And with 15 of those games coming or already out on 360 months & months before the PS3 even arrives in Europe & then expecting people to fork out £500+ when you include extras on top of buying the standard machine so you can get games that have been out for ages on another format is not spectacular its appaling.
And as for paying for Live well if you think that sony's service will equal or better Live then I think you may well be dissapointed & dont believe for a minute that there wont be charges at some stage for online play on PS3 sony may wave the costs on their own titles but I dont think it will be long before 3rd parties are charging for their games as if they dont just who is going to pay for the upkeep of the servers & updates & patches etc?? These things cost the developers money you know & the 1 off cost of buying the game is not going to cover that continual expense so the cash will have to come from somewhere & it will most likely be the players that will foot the bill in some form or another.
15 of those games are or will be available for 360.
yea, but you seem to be forgetting that the vast majority of Ps2 and xbox games were multiplatform. the vast majority of those multiplatform games dont look very interesting anyway. there are a few that should be great but the exclusive titles do look an entirely different class.

Yeah that's just a one time deal. With it you get a PS3 console and the service for $300.
If people don't care about PS3 why do they waste their time posting comments about it ??
Because Xbozos and Nintendogs are happier when they are upsetting Sonny than when they play with sticks of joy.
If Wii in X box = wet messy fun for entire family then Praystation = Yes Please Else Praystation = Maybe
Sony marketing motto: Use the farce Luke Micro soft = Description of Bill Gates' genitals Nintendo = abbreviation of "No entiendo" AND sound made when an Xbozo head ricochets off Sonny then bounces on carpet Wii = Sound me makes when me goes on rollercoaster AND Urine relaxation for the whole family XBox = Pick a box, any box, lets say X box Playstation = Praystation at home Playstation portable = Pray anywhere DS = Cryptic working title for sequel to Da Vinci code Game boy = Sexist & Ageist game machine Game boy advance = No advance at all! Still Sexist & Ageist game machine
If people don't care about PS3 why do they waste their time posting comments about it ??
Cos they just want PS3. I do too - Who doesn't?!
hey i want one too and have 700 euro ready and waiting for it.i also have a 360 that i play all the time on my 42" hd plasma that will move aside when ps3 comes. its preordered ,i'm number 4 on the list and can't wait no matter what anyone says.

What a stupid comment, both machines are very similar and will have exclusive games.
So what's the price gonna be then when it releases over here? Like you really know? I personally can't wait. Sick of the Xbozos who just rant and rave about the 360 before the PS3 was even launched. Well here's one for you Xbozos. If in a year's time the PS3 is still around and decent ass games appear on it and the price is cheaper will you get one then? FFS, just enjoy the unique games that each console offers or climb back to your amoeba-sized hell holes where you climbed out from. Personally I'm getting a PS3 and (yes!) because it has got blu-ray, yes because it's got MSG, FF, Devil may cry, Singstar, etc. And yes because it can hook up wih my PSP and yes because my family can use it. Yes because innovative titles do come out on the playstation brand and yes I simply like their sleek designs. Will get a 360 later but probs 2nd hand at £100 or less. Most of the flippin games will come out on my PC anyways which are easier to control. Come on PS3 come hook up with my 42" plasma and enjoy next-gen gaming as it was meant to be!
So you're buying a PS3 because of Blu-ray & you've got a 42" Plasma. Hope it isn't 720p then because the PS3 can't output Blu-ray films at 720p unlike the 360 which has a hardware scaler chip in it and can output at any of its resolutions.
The reason people keep commenting on the PS3 is because they – and I included my self in that – can’t understand what the fuss is about. Here comes the next Sony console, it’s more than a year behind the Xbox360 but doesn’t seem to produce any real visual difference, its on line service seems a bit lacking, its biggest boast is an unproven disc format, take away all of its launch line up games that aren’t available on the 360 and there are no “must have games” left in sight, it’s wildly expensive and everyone knows it will come down in price, so why, for the love of all that is good, why would anyone buy it at launch? Too demonstrate your wealth? Maybe it’s simple because they are Sony and if that is the case maybe you should be commended for your loyalty. But maybe its time to question that loyalty, because Sony don’t treat you with any sort of respect what so ever.
On another note, aren’t you slightly worried that the PS3 will be a bit unreliable? They have had so much trouble making the blue laser thing that I’d be concerned over how durable it will be. The PS2 didn’t seem able to cope with the demands put on it for much more than a couple of years at a time, the first few batches of 360 weren’t very reliable either.

Well look at it this way . X360 in the US is selling pretty much the same as the original Xbox did .By its 14 month out the Xbox had sold the same as the X360 right now if not a little better .
That in the US ,the X360 stronghold .
In Europe it is selling way worse ,with monthly sales lagging about 80 000 consoles per month for most of the past year .The actual EU X360 user base is about half the US one ,so it has effectively sold half as good as the original Xbox in Europe (actually not so bad as the Xbox wasnt 50%-50% between US and Europe but more like 60%-40%) ) .
Plus ,from the 2.3-2.4 million consoles sold in Europe more nearly half are in UK .The rest of the EU isnt buying too many X360 consoles .Trying to argue with that is pointless ,data speaks itself .
So if that for you is selling like hotcakes and a lot of people having the console in Europe you can fool yourself as much as you want .Nearly 90% of the EU consumers havent upgraded their console and those games will be as good as new in the Playstation 3 .
A server costs nearly nothing ,it can be a PIV with the adecuate bandwith thats all .You are being fooled by Microsoft to pay for the matchmaking online play that has been always free on the PC gaming .MMORPG ,on the other way ,are being charged apart in the Live and probably will in the PS3 .
I wont be online all the day , I will play some games online and others not .I ,as many gamers ,are more of the adventure/RPG/arcade lovers .The PC-lime gamers of deathmatch FPS games is the usual breed of the X360.For me a service of 10 out of ten but paying and another one of 7 or 8 out of ten for free I will stick with the later all the days in the week .
So what's the price gonna be then when it releases over here? Like you really know? I personally can't wait. Sick of the Xbozos who just rant and rave about the 360 before the PS3 was even launched.

Innovative titles, blu-ray, original games...are you looking at a different console to PS3, than we are? Ps3 has no decent games, not one, XBox360 has lot's of world class games, and when PS3 is released over here, not only will we be playing Halo 3, Gears of War, Call of Duty, and several other games that are second generation xbox360 games, we will have a more advanced online service, when PS3 has not even got an online service properly running, recordable tv, more xbox live arcade games, more demos, and did i mention all the exclusives once owned by Playstation, are not exclusive anymore and appear on XBox360..so you go ahead, buy your rip off over price, no fun, no games, PS3 while we enjoy fun, cheaper, second generation x360 games and our Wii also.
anyone who spends that much money on a ps3 is mental. if you would like a phone number for a mental hospital i can give you one. you have no sense of money idiot.

But that is a childish point of view .Why bother pointing out this ...people will buy the PS3 and are interested in the PS3 version of those games ,not the X360 Live-paying one so bringing in the fact is is also in the X360 is like pointing out that some are also in the PC .
Xbozos - need i say more. If you read my comments properly: a. European pricing not set in stone. b. I never said games will be better, I'd just prefer their exclusives. c. I have a pc no need for 360. d. when the 360 is cheaper then might get one. And yes Sony are leaving Europe last and their network isn't setup properly. Whoopee doo. Just cos it's late that's no pathetic excuse to buy a Wii or 360. And with Xbozos type mentality rather not meet you online
If it's less that £400, I'll deepfry my trilby and have it with a side salad.
b. I never said games will be better, I'd just prefer their exclusives.
I like an exclusive as much as the next man but weren't Driving Emotion Type S and The Bouncer exclusives on the PS2? Exclusive doesn't mean good. I get a console for good games, not necessarily exclusives.
c. I have a pc no need for 360. d. when the 360 is cheaper then might get one.
Welcome to hypocritesville, Captain Contradiction!

Pathetic excuse? Put it this way. If I bought a car years ago and thought it was so good, I'd buy it again in it's new form, I'd be fairly miffed if I knew it was going to cost me 70% more, have no climate control and only be in one type of engine. Sony have abused europe and there's no way of hiding that fact, every through deluded fanboy rants.
Because Xbozos and Nintendogs are happier when they are upsetting Sonny than when they play with sticks of joy.
If Wii in X box = wet messy fun for entire family then Praystation = Yes Please Else Praystation = Maybe
Sony marketing motto: Use the farce Luke Micro soft = Description of Bill Gates' genitals Nintendo = abbreviation of "No entiendo" AND sound made when an Xbozo head ricochets off Sonny then bounces on carpet Wii = Sound me makes when me goes on rollercoaster AND Urine relaxation for the whole family XBox = Pick a box, any box, lets say X box Playstation = Praystation at home Playstation portable = Pray anywhere DS = Cryptic working title for sequel to Da Vinci code Game boy = Sexist & Ageist game machine Game boy advance = No advance at all! Still Sexist & Ageist game machine
Me now ready for being human sacrifice.
Jesus. Its posts like this that make me realise alcoholism is more prevalent than I'd first thought.... Seriously man, what the hell are you on about?
Also, what a pointless news article. We're gonna announce our announcement soon - be ready. Slow news day perhaps?
