so now everyone knows sony dont give a toss about europe,theyve messed up big time now, whos going to spend £500 on a console in march ,most people have just finished paying xmas by then,only the hardcore gamers will pay this not joe bloggs and his 2 kids.
i think i will stick to the 360.

Wow what a way to hang yourself BIG UP SONY!!!! All them promises just crumble away LOL.

Cant wait til microsoft cut the price of the 360 on the same day the ps3 launches in usa and japan! That will be the final nail in the coffin, especially when non clued up parents goto the store and ask what the difference is between a £199 console and a £500 console and the answer is ... NOT MUCH!(Kids dont give a toss about blue ray nonsense thay wanna play GTA) Yeah MS deny any price cuts but i reckon its a ploy! Boom! Microsoft 1 sony 0

aye, what a big pile of diodes... or not as the case probably is.

You'd think that the production of the "central" part of the all sigin' , all dancin' Blue-ray drives would be one of the priorities..

Is the Nintendo Wii gonna be taking chunks of PS3's potential buyers as well as the Xbox then???

Those people who have stood by Sony through thick and thin should now know the truth like someone has already pointed out SONY don't give a #oss about your support

I feel so let down by Sony, as i suppose do all of the people who have pre-ordered the console in the shops. It just shows how little Sony actually care about us. I can see the Wii taking a large chunk of sales from out of the PS3 sales, and i cant blame em.

Why do Urope allways get sh*gged by sony. Urope has the biggest gaming industry and still they treat us like sh*t. Sony need to fix up and fast because the release of this news has prompted many of my friends and family to go out and get a 360. Also due to the delay Pro Evo 6 is exclusive to the 360 this year and this has tempted me to by a 360 as Pro is the best game ever!!!!

i dont think the delay in europe has anything to do with problems with bluray, their afraid of us getting it an hacking the **** out of it. F**k sony i wanna see it hacked on principal now.

that aside, yeah story pissed me right off was really lookin forward to the release, refused to buy an xbox expecting it to be out by xmas even pre ordered(something ive never done) and now this. at the start i thought this was just another way to boost sales "we dont have enough units blah blah" create some anticipation then all the kiddies go mental for it but now this story is starting to look more realistic each day.

It can still play normal DVD movies but not sure about games so I'd imagine that will depend on the modchip

A PSP is just a hand held PS2 anyway

Just get a xbox 360....?500 for a ps3 is a bit too much for me.

?200 for a xbox 360 is much more reasonable!
