PS3 launch titles Delayed... at least in Europe

PS3s

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe CEO David Reeves has announced that several PS3 launch titles won't be available until 2007. Christmas, but with Eyetoy described as being "not playable at the moment", Reeves is confident that it "will come before March 2007". The CEO of SCEE is a pretty reliable source, however, Reeves did not make it clear whether these delays are worldwide, or just for the European market.

I can't disagree with Reeves when he says "Without being too arrogant about it, I don't think we worry too much about building up the hype in the first six months, but where the rubber hits the road is going to be when all those hardcore gamers have bought PS3. They have also bought Xbox 360 and they have probably bought Nintendo Wii as well.".

By Reeves' description, I am not a hardcore gamer, seems I only own a PS2, and probably won't buy an Xbox 360 or a Wii. But one things for sure, no matter what the launch titles are, I'll have a 60GB PS3 by this time next year.

This story sucks? This story rocks!

Time and time again, everybody continues to say "it all comes down to the games". Well guess what, PS3 is So AWESOME that it doesnt need games!!! You can buy ps3 and sit in your house, it will cure depression, alcoholism, and help you get laid!! That power comes mostly from the Cell. THe power to help get you laid comes from the motion tracking controller, you can wack it while you hold the controller, its kinna like a game.

Again, I emphasize, nobody needs games on ps3, it is so powerful that the games play in tihe 4th dimension, which is RL (real life). RL has really good graphics, but the only game to play is sit at home and look at your ps3.

F*ck the games!!!

Hahah, they should just cancel the system now.

maden is gay, you should take your ps3 money and spend it all on cocaine, then you can make a cardboard cutout of ps3 and put it under your TV. IT will pretty much be the same thing, although you will have more fun with the cardboard cutout because you will be higher than all bejuses on 650 dollars worth of coke. (ps, I say 650 because of tax)

# Only in Europe — Guest 2006-05-19 10:57

Atleast he doesn't mention them being delayed outside of Europe, no offense to anybody in Europe.

# :/ — Guest 2006-05-19 10:58

thats actually weak, this time around I dont think sony are doing anything for me. and dude, you gotta be kidding me.. wtf is the point in having a £450 consol with no games its like having a monitor with no pc.

games ARE the most impostant thing about a consol you fool

# Agree with #1/2 — FreakShow! 2006-05-19 11:00

You don't pay huge amounts of money, to have it sit in the corner waiting for the good games to come out...Who knows, the price may drop by the time they come..hopefully.

If the games aren't there I wouldn't buy it I would wait untill there is a decent number. Look at how Dreamcast went....

# Misleading article title — Guest 2006-05-19 11:12

Should be "PS3 launch titles delayed in Europe" unless you can confirm they were delayed everywhere.

# . — Ragarnok 2006-05-19 11:17

I hope this buries every other "The Ps3 is going to be so awesome it'll rip the nerves out of your eyes"

It's going to do as badly as the 360 on launch...in japan, seriously the japanese players did not buy the 360 because there were no games that were worth the 400$ price tag, why shouldn't European and American gamers do the same thing?

# geez — Guest 2006-05-19 12:14

Thats true..sadly, here in europe we get games like 6 months later though im probably seeing that games like singstar will probably release first here in europe while others like Heavenly there in US (*****!)

# Thumbs up! — Guest 2006-05-19 12:34

Thanks Kyle! :)

# yes!!!!!!! — Guest 2006-05-19 12:44

# ya 13 your an idiot — Guest 2006-05-19 14:12

if ya go to eb games or gamestop you can preorder most of the launch titles.

so if there is anything that europe wants really bad they can import since there is no restriction on it.

go check out the games stores and stop being really stupid.

but i guess that comes with being really young.

# europ — Guest 2006-05-19 22:05

Europ is definitely the black sheep again. I think once again they underestimate the EU market. Sony'll do it, Like sony did with the psp.

# WTF — Guest 2006-05-19 23:35

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!11

Thats another tick on list --not to by a ps3..

they keep doing it, first the over-priced tag, now we dont any games???? fuX U sony!!

# import — Guest 2006-05-20 01:52

If this is only in europe, you can import the games, because the PS3 is region-free..

# umm launch titles not out for launch? — hush404 2006-05-20 01:58

Umm can someone explain to me how a Launch Title is still called a Launch Title if it comes out months after launch...

to #16... you're retarded.

# Sucks — Guest 2006-05-20 07:23

# Delayed, yet again? — OrkEater 2006-05-21 01:52

So, it is going to be delayed, in europe, once again, europe always has this done to them, and Im damn sick of it! What does it take? like 1 ship to send over some consoles and games, but no.. they delay it over, and over, and over again!

# sony playstation fan — Guest 2006-05-22 08:43

sony is da best and i know sony is only playin wid dere fans, i m sure few games will be out 4 ps3 at launch. people who think it is expensive den dey r wrong cus dey r not only gettin ps3 but also a high blue ray disk player built in as well. Dnt buy xbox360 only cus of halo3, its comin on ps3 as well.

# Look on the bright side! — Guest 2006-09-06 08:43

At least we’ll be spared the frustration that will result when it becomes clear that the first generation models don’t actually work. btw the jokes have started already... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9oqchrqkMU
