PS3 is so powerful it won't come out for consumers its going to be sold only to utilities to power your home.

SONY S.....KS !!!!!!!!!

great

March 22?? Damn I would of thought they'd come out and say something quite a bit sooner then march 22!

Good i like to hear news, i just hope its not news saying we have to pay for online play like MS does....

Still waiting...........

but then again... could be a launch date ... time to get crunked lol

yay!... i think... "ps3 will be launched when it is ready"...back to square one...

Wow, well, looking forward to this. Hopefully, they will have some *almost* full version games playable at E3 this year.

Oh, man, I already can't wait for next year!!

I'm getting really sick of people saying that Sony is nothing but smoke and mirrors and BS. Just because Sony doesnt want to launch their system on MTV or purposely leak things out, doesn't mean that they our full of BS. t means that they do not think the system is ready yet. Instead of whining and making crappy jokes, be patient! (Note: On some websites I noticed people saying that delaying the PS3 will cause the 360 to have a lot more games then PS3... How is this possible when only ONE game has been released for the 360 this year!? Were coming up to the begining of March , and Xbox 360 still has only released ONE game! Man, and I though the PSP had a crappy game library...)

Note: How is Micrsoft getting more money (while sony waits)when you can't find a Xbox 360 in stores; nor online (without sinking in at least $500 and that is usually without the hard drive)?

I believe they're taking the necessary time to ensure they create the PS3 in a revolutionized fashion. Statements like "getting out of the box" and "the next gen doesn't start till we say it does" makes me believe they're up to making something quite different than just another console.

PS 3 launching in 2009 and a half... be their or be square.... Only on pay per view. (select an action below) ______________ Report Abuse To Moderator Posted Feb 16, 2006 11:57 am PT ....

that was pretty funny .lol.

Waiting for 22/03/06

nothing more

come on we need the ps3, the longer you take the more money MS makes.

it's only a month a way, i can wait, it's not like it's coming out next month cause then that'd be a different story

I cannot believe sony is doing this, they are going for market suicide. people allready have so many doubts regarding the ps3 potencial, this sort of behaviour is going to bury them

In the year 3000 all rubber duckies will be made of metal and emit ear-peircing ultrasonic waves that will penetrate walls and make human skulls implode for only $19.95

Hopefully some worthy PS3 news will come out of this. Hopefully.

i dunno what to say, i actually kinda like this new approach about not releasing any info about release dates... here me out... i remember waiting 9 months for the sega dreamcast 7 years ago. and once they had set their release date, i went through life always anticipating the launch date. time passed by as if it was nothing. i had lost 9 months of my life due to anticipation. i honestly don't remember anything that i had done. life is going much slower these days, and i am enjoying every minute of it. i don't want to wake up one day just to look around to see that i'm an old man. i don't know if that made any sense at all. but i do know that it made sense to me.

oh and p.s. microsoft 360, xbox, and basically all american products suck, and fall apart.

[Think I went overboard on this post...]

Sony would much rather relase the PS3 now... But its just not ready. Microsoft rushed the 360, and you see where that got them? (couldnt meet supply and demand, thus they really ruined their chances for a decent holiday season). The PS3 will probally come out sometime between April-July. I can almost guarantee that a holiday launch will not be done. Why? Mainly because it'd be extremely hard to pump out more systems after just shippig out a bunch already. Sony wants enough time between Launch date and the Holiday season, so more systems can be pumped out and supply and demand can be met. Microsoft claims that most people will go out and buy a 360 since the PS3 will not be released till late and there will be none in stock. But, that would be hard since Sony is pushing the release back SO THEY HAVE enough in stock and you STILL cannot buy a 360 in a store. And you also can't buy one online without buying a bundled pack (which is priced $500-$1000!! and some don't include a hard drive!). And a good chunk of the systems bought, are being sold on ebay! That is what pisses me off, Microsoft is really underestimating Sony. I am glad Sony is delaying the system, because I would rather have a system with a decent laucnh line up and a good ammount of games; then a system that can barely meet supply and demand, has a very overrated launch lineup (i.e. Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero), and can't even be bought without throwing in at least $500. Be PATEINT. The PS3 will be worth the wait.
Note: I am not a Sony Fanboy. I'm just not a fan of Microsoft. Their first generation of consoles were pure crap. The systems CD drive took a dump after a year or two of gameplay. Then they asked for $80 (plus shipping) to fix it. Sorry, but I do not trust Microsoft. Maybe the 360 can change my mind, but I seriously doubt it...

I don't really care about the release date of the system. . It will come when it comes. The longer we wait the better it will be. Anyways it is good to know that we will get some new info at least.

why they are taking so much time?

finally...

Good for Phil

Be patient

" whats so "beyond the box" anyway?" I don't know about you, but outside of my PS3 grill I'll have some steaks ready to be cooked.

March 22... But I want it now!

whats so "beyond the box" anyway?

forget GDC ....bring it on E3!!!!!!

Not soon enough! We Need To See demos About it.

when is the ps3 goin to be released?

talking about its potential????

Why not just show us ? .... or is the reason that you can only talk about it?

aaahhh .... c'mon ... just give us a release date

When will PS3 come out .

Without a release date, demos, "gameplay" footage, a price, or something besides movies, I could really care less. Let's be honest here, it ain't comin out till the holiday season. Good thing for my 360.

hope they show some real play and no more video CG. Awfull, Very very poor

You said it Titan_BG I don't understand I get in to these arguments everday about how much greater and(superior the US is to the rest of the world) yet more these same people suport the Japanese Sony over microsoft and the Canadian EA. I'm not rasist, but just proving a point. If America and or its products are so great how come "we" sure don't think so. If we don't take our products seriously how's the rest of the eastern world going to?

Others might say "well stop making crap products and we'll buy them, well the PS2 is a crap system(I don't care that there's over 1600 games for it)hardware wise yet the Japanese supported it. Why can't we have the same unity being that the US buys the most video games than the world according to NPD fun world.

Might as well get a XBOX 360 and let the suckers wait until 2007 and beyond for their "next gen" console, if you are from the US you should support MS at least a little, look at the way the japanese support sony and nintendo they wont buy a western product and yet here we have all the sony fanboys not understaning how they are supporting foreign products instead of American...and yes i know much of MS is also overseas but think about the center of revenue its right here with Bill Gates so most of the money comes back to the US instead of shipping out to Japan, so go out there get yourself an Xbox 360 and enjoy instead of waiting another year with your thumb in your mouth

If FF is planned for August, why would they release the ps3 here in Sept. They are also making a few other big games, including a spin off of Dragon Quest starring Yangus. I want ps3 games not ps2 games.

I think Sony is getting too cocky... Xbox has the online market locked down (in the west atleast), and Nintendo gots the handheld and soon the casual and non-gamer market. Sony needs to stop focusing on making the mythical entertainment box and start remebering what made PS one so successfull...

More BS from Sony... well done. This hyped might be even more played out than PS2 hype. PS2 ended up being quite a let down in terms of hardware after such hype that it will be so and so bigger than Dreamcast.... Did they deliver ? Barely. More polygons but jaggies galore... I have a feeling graphics wont mean much in this generation. Who's to say Rev will have bad graphics anyway when Nintendo have shown nothing though it's speculated to be 2X-3X more graphical and overall power than Gamecube (which was no slouch and far superior to PS2 in graphics anyway). I doubt the graphics will be much better than what X360 can do. Being in Japan no doubt PS3 is the console to get for RPGs but will it as a console be any better or have more to offer than the others? I can't see it yet. While PS3 will surely have lots of 3rd-party support I doubt it's online service will be superior to MS and I doubt it will offer the innovation and unique gaming experience of Rev. It will at least have less PC genre and titles likely than X360 and more exclusives (FPS belongs to mouse and keyboard control of PC). No doubt I'll get MGS4 with a PS3 but so far the system has less showing than Rev other than spec, talks and Kojima's real-time demo at TGS...

I guess US and japan both release date in summer that's ps3... but game titles? there is not enough a few new game titles in PS3... And new more game titles early at 2007. Another PS3 with HHD cost like $500 to up. PS3 separate HHD, PS3 could low cost $300....... I don't know either I hope that sony ps3 keep to update blog

May-be i don't have to wast my money buying X-box 360 after all

Ol' Phill will explain in detail how closey they are going to rip off Xbox Live! among other bits of info.

Well, at least we'll finally hear something and maybe some (hopefully most) of it will be new.... Exact release date US and Price point would be nice to start pre-orders at GameStop and EB

I guess they wait until hell freezes over before they release the PS3 or in 2007 when nintendo approaches sanility.

.... Blah blah blah Down loadable movies.. blah blah blah.. music down loads.. blah blah blah PSP conectivety. Blah blah bla Blu ray.. Blah blah blah..

And maby some CGI... No games, just more blah blah..

This is what people have been telling the Sony fanboys, the PS3 will NOT be launched in the springtime! There hasn't been a single game set to launch in 2006 yet! You might as well wait until Fall like the rest of us!

Is it just me, or does this guy look like the friggin' antichrist?

E3+Sony=more smoke and mirrors
