You limey bastard, you beat me to it! : I just heard the news on the TV.
Look at it this way, it gives us all time to save up the money (since I'm sure the asking price will either be an arm, leg or first born child).

I'll believe a simultaneous world launch when I see it. I remember Nintendo promising the N64 would be released in Europe by the end of 1995. It eventually arrived in March 1997. I get the feeling this is just spin. Remember how the Dreamcast suffered because a lot of people were "waiting for the PS2". I'm sure Sony hope the same thing will happen with the 360. My bet is that Japan will still get it first, followed by North America. Then Europe will get it sometime around 2014.

I'm positive it will arrive before 2014. Perhaps. :lol:
But I'm not sure about a worldwide simultaneous launch. If they can produce 1 million units per month that won't be enough for all fanboys and video game magazines and the people with enough money, who buy it only as a status symbol. I think it will sell like mad in Japan and America, that's why we Europeans will surely have to wait longer. (Not that I'm waiting) They promised Europe PSPs soon, but we had to wait, what, 1 year or so? That was ridiculous.
IMO Europe will be ripped off again in many ways. At least we will pay the highest price for it. As we do for every single console.

http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS2370343858.htmlLooks like the PS3 runs Linux. Also looks like they're trying to do way too much with it.

Although I have no interest in sony... I hope they pull through, if only to keep microsoft and nintendo on their toes, and I'd feel bad for all the Playstation gamers if they didn't deliver. That and the hope the rumor the FF VII remake will happen, though I know it won't.

Also looks like they're trying to do way too much with it. This means no work for all the guys who try to put Linux on everything that has a CPU. : Speaking of that I saw a little cartoon today, which has a bit to do with this. I know it's stupid, but it made me smile for a second or two.  But hey, now new groups can emerge. "Windows on PS3"!!11!

Yeah, it is funny alright.
Personally, I couldn't give a f**k if it works for Sony or not. They have their other products to fall back on, and it will sell on name alone anyway. :P

I don't know about the US, but here in Europe the penguins have been popular for quite a while.

Well, at least they're being open about it. If they were really trying to be sneaky, they would have added more to the screenshot.

My bad, it is. I've no idea where I got the Dragon thing from, probably the picture. :oops: I'm really skeptical about the shot, and i'll continue to be until I play it myself.

Wow... Sony held their E3 conference this evening. We have: a crippled console, with no way to bring it up to standard in the future.Bye bye force feedbackAnd a REALLY half assed attempt to rip off Nintendo (no, it's not motion sensing, just tilt.) I hope you like playing with the controller perfectly centred and still while you press those buttons. If any of you fanboys STILL want this turd, I think you'd be better off spending the $700 on some psychiatric help.

Second that. Who in the world could still want that crap? The cheaper model is shit and the model with the "best" configuration is too damn expensive. They'll ask 599 Euro in Europe, that's a whopping 720 US-$! :x And in one way they ripped of Nintendo, too (among others). :wink: I think this tilt technology was already used in some GBC and GBA games before. Well, it's very funny to read some fanboys' statements ("MSG4 olone justifies spending 599$" (and 79$ for the game :?: )) on forums. But there are other nice comments, too. One I liked is this one: Quote:Sony fanboys {insert foot}
yea thats right, back in nov.05 a world wide launch was stupid, a core and premium console package was worse,xbox live was a joke, and the "rev-mote" was a gimmick. so...
how do you like you xStation Wii?
