http://www.ps3land.com/article-640.phpPS3 delayed in Europe
by Bhavin Shah
The PlayStation 3 will not make its way to Europe until March 2007.
In an official statement, Sony said the decision was made to push the launch to next year because of "the delay in the mass production schedule of the blue laser diode within the Sony Group, thus affecting the timely procurement of key components to be utilised in PlayStation 3."
The delay effects all PAL territories, which includes Europe, Australasia, Russia, Middle East and Africa.
The launch dates for Japan and North America will remain as November 11th and November 17th respectively.
In more depressing news, Sony has also halved its shipment forecast for 2006 to 2 million. Originally, the plan was to ship 4 million units worldwide by year end. However, the company still plans to ship 6 million units by the end of March 2007, presumably with a large number dropping in Europe.

The problem is it seems ahead of it's time, too many functions and too much expectation placed on the user to also own a top-spec HDTV (1080p). Don't think it's overpriced, for what you get it is decent.djdoc360 said:Id like the PS3 if it wasnt 1. Overpriced, 2. Full of Hype and 3. If Sony didnt steal other peoples ideas and 4. If Sony for once actually delivered what they originally told everyone they were going to deliver.....

Are you sure about that one........... http://games.kikizo.com/news/200609/018.aspThomasGOAL said:The game are in 1080p
Bullshit news :lol:deftonesmx17 said:Are you sure about that one........... http://games.kikizo.com/news/200609/018.asp
When someone intends to do something it doesnt mean it already is, it means they want the end product to also support 1080p, but that doesnt mean it already is supporting 1080pAl Hastings, Chief Technology Officer: Our intention is to support all HD modes including 1080p. The framerate will be locked at 30 frames per second in both single-player and multiplayer. We use a number of different codecs internally including AC3 and ATRAC3 depending on what's best suited to each particular case. The highest quality output format our game supports is 7.1 uncompressed over HDMI.
I wont be so sure mate, those dont look rendered a tiny bit to me, heck the graphics, texturs etc they were able to get on VT3 is somewhere up there with that screenshot, and BTW i saw the latest vid of this very game (resisance: fall of man) on gametrailers today and it din't look far from that, if anything it was prolly exactly that quality. I agree on your second point though, i mean, how many people in europe own a 40" (or bigger) HDTV ATM, i wouldn't bet for over 30%, it'll prolly be way less than that ..JayD said:LOL they are the most blatant renders I have seen in ages. And all this 1080p talk is hilarious it WON'T make much difference to how the game looks and hardly anyone will compatible TV's for a few years. Just more useless Sony hype in my opinion.
