No, PS3 was supposed to be a November 2006 worldwide launch but there was a production shortage of those blue ray lasers so they had to have Europe wait until March 2007.

Nope. PS3 launched Japan and US about same time. Only EU was much later.

yep you are absolutely right. So if they do the same thing this time around 1. call in a playstation meeting event early next year and around march reveal it 2. go for a media blowout during E3, GC and TGS (they have many teams who are currently working on unknown projects. I expect some crazy good stuff from the get go for the ps4) 3. Release in Japan (and some asian markets) at year end 4. Release rest of the world around Feb/March |
yup i agree with you! people do forget how strong the Playstation brand still is. Look at how well the PS3 has sold considering its price at first and lack of games first year. its almost outsold the 360 and that had a year headstart and has ALWAYS been cheaper. next gen the PS4 will be cheaper and have huge lineup from the get go. Sony (i hope) have learnt from there mistakes!
Uncharted 4 teaser for christmas 2014 as well i expect!

I have a bad feeling this will be the case. Sony really should try to target the holiday season worldwide with their new hardware..

If I remember correctly Sony themselves projected 12 million PS3s shipment in the current Fiscal year so the sales are definitely decreasing. Next year could be down at 9 million shipped. This new slim will still be produced for a good number of years since it'll sell along with the PS4 a few years into next gen. |
instead of doing 3 different replies to you guys I'm just going to go with 'i can't really remember' to all 3 ;)

yeah I think vita is a good indication as to what to expect from the hardware. Powerful yet very dev friendly.
Honestly I have a very good feeling about the games we are going to see next gen from sony first party. They have built a very good platform of first party devs which they can use to build their next gen line up now. I'm already eagerly awaiting to see what the game that Stig is making will be like...

lol.. slim shady
I think they did. Microsoft is absolutely pumping money out of the X360. The profit difference between X360 and PS3 is several $ billion already (I think X360 is about break even or slightly profitable while PS3 is minus $4 billion or in that ballpark, it can't all be due to Bluray?) and the biggest reason is because X360 could build up that crucial online echosystem by launching first. It's not like the X360 is the superior product lol, I think we can both agree on that.
You have seen all through the generation how MS have afforded to have the X360 overpriced while Sony has been forced to hunt and sell the PS3 for cheap.

I honestly don't think that due to launching late tho...they lost so much money because they launching with a more expensive product but then had to sell it for a big loss. It cost them dearly. not saying the late launch didn't affect the situation...just that I don't think it's the biggest reason. The big hurdle for them against the xbox next gen is, at least as I see it, is NA. Even if they launch a few months later, as long as the price is good, they will take a huge lead in Europe and Asia in no time. I sure hope Polypony is hard at work on the next GT, will be very useful to have one announced at least at launch (even if the game comes to the market a year later)
