Somehow I knew this would happen, all my mates waiting for their new PS3's getting all excited about the November release. I told em, 2007 - would they listen? Razz

The launch of Sony's long-awaited PlayStation 3 games console in Europe has been delayed until March 2007...

Mr Kutaragi blamed the European delay on problems in mass producing elements of the high-definition Blu-ray disc drives in the machines....

Only in Europe tho, harsh for those dreamers that have been holding out. Shocked

I bet the daily UK 360 sales atleast doubled today, the stock may take a bit of a dive, will be really interesting to me to see the sales figures for this week.

Somehow.. lol..
I predicted it too with many of my friends who are ps3 fanboys..

Well, should i say were... hahah

Ive converted so many in the last couple of months its not funny.
And M$ deserves the customers.. They've done a wonderful job this time round on xbox live..

I predicted sony would never get their ps3's into production nor retail because M$ have already drained the market of resources building the new xbox 360.. lol

I have no doubt they would have used alot of resources worldwide to build this system and would have some effect on SONY..


well thats my 2 cents.

Remember how much hype there was a couple months leading up to the 360 release.....i haven't seen any of that recently and we are getting pretty close to their release date....that right there is sort of a red flag that they were going to be delayed....especially with the 360 being out im sure they are going to need to advertise the shit out of it to actually convince people its worth over 500 bucks when they just spent 400 on a 360

I managed to convert 5 of my mates to the Xbox from the PS2 and they where Sony fanboys. Especially when they saw the same game they had on their PS2 running on the Xbox and where left with a solid 'WTF!!'. Smile

I've converted one Sony fanboy to the 360 so far. Razz (Must try harder) Wink

None of this is going to be half as funny as when they (the PS3 fanboys) finaly find out that all of the hype about HD video games are going to be better because of blue-ray is a bunch of bunk. When any Tech geek knows that for video games all this means is more storage and it doesn't add one ounce of benifit to an HD Videogame. Even more than that is when they see just how close to one another the Processing hardware is in these machines and that they paid $200 more for a game system that only looks as good as if not worse than a 360 version because of development difficulties, and not tons better like they were led to believe.
