PS3 "Premiering" Early Next Year
« on: September 23, 2004, 12:49:24 PM »
There was a certain presentation slide shown at the recent PlayStation Business Briefing which we found to be very interesting. As seem below, (look at it, it\'s magical) the slide seems to reveal that the PS3 will premier some time early next year (by "premier", we can only presume that Sony are referring to an official document announcing that the console is actually in production), or well before the next E3 at the very least. Following the initial premier, a presentation will be given at E3 where perhaps the first concept designs will be showcased.

The slide also indicates that the second PS3 development kit (Ver.2) will be released around the time of next years TGS, providing developers with the resources they need to fine tune their titles before the PS3’s 2006 launch.

It is exciting news which means that the PS3 is nearing completion and Sony\'s next generation plans are beginning to solidify.

I see something like "near the end of this year" on that board :)

I think the top one is the PS3 "premiere" and the bottom one is the development kits...

Those are fiscal years guys and I believe Sony\'s end March 31st...which means you\'ll probably see the PS3 in February or March of \'05.

I\'m not getting hyped up just to see PS3 launch with Fantavision 2.;)

I\'ll start to get excited when I can read reviews of the launch games...

I think Sony said they are trying to lengthen the console life span.  

your avatar bothers me.

Sony was originally planning for the PS2 to last 10 years, I believe.

Though, perhaps it will. How many years after the PS2 launched did the PSX last?

And Fantavision wasn\'t so bad. Just ask Hawkey!

PSOne not PSX. PSX is a completely different machine (HDD/DVD recorder with a PS2 thrown in for good measure).

PSOne still sold many years after the PS2, I\'m not quite sure if it\'s still selling but PSOne has had a lifespan of at least 7-8 years.

I just think it\'s a dumb avatar.

You can still buy Playstation games at most retailers so I\'d say it\'s still being supported.  I believe they might still be making Playstation games or at least ports for it.

I know they make Madden for it every year.

BTW, why don\'t you like my avatar?
