    PS3 In 2005?

    Sony Considers 2005 PS3 Release


    Sony Considers 2005 PS3 Release
    A company rep hints at the possibility of a release this year.
    by Anoop Gantayat

    May 12, 2005 - In a surprising twist on the next generation hardware race, a Sony representative has stated that a year 2005 release for the next generation PlayStation is a possibility. Responding to questions from Jiji news service, Sony Chief Financial Officer Takao Yuhara states, "For the year end sales season, simultaneously building up both the PlayStation Portable system in America and Europe as well as the next generation PlayStation is one option that we have."

    Most industry speculation calls for a next generation PlayStation release in 2006. Sony's third party developers have backed this assumption up with a strong list of PlayStation 2 titles planned for the rest of the year and early next.

    The state of the next generation PlayStation software shown at next week's E3 show should reveal if a 2005 release is a possibility for the new system, or if Yuhara's comments were designed to take some steam out of Microsoft's Xbox 360 unveiling later today.

    I think it's a bluff, to try and steal some of the Xbox 360's thunder.

    It just seems, unlikely to me though. nVidia said their chips wouldn't be ready until the end of the year, and with the two formats (Blue-ray and HD-DVD) still trying to decide, what, are even, if they want to make a unified format. Dev kits haven't even been out for 6 months for the PS3.

    It would be crazy though, if it did launch this year, but I just don't see how that would be possible.

        Game production doesnt really rely on media format until actual duplication so the format issue really wouldn't stop the system from releasing this year.

        This news proves we really know nothing that Sony has planned. It could come out year as they say but who knows but them? I think if anything this points to a Jap release in 2005 and we could see the PS3 hit the US before next summer.

                I get that feeling too, with the recent news I see this happening...

                Fall 2005 Japan

                Spring-Summer release for USA


                This kind of talk is what Pre-E3/E3 is all about. I have to say though this came out wayyyy left field.

                  Lol what a lame way to try to get the hype off of the xbox2.

                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                    what's so lame about it, it's just apart of the business. This is what happens in the video game world among competitors. So like I said nothing lame about it at all. Sony is doing what there supose to dom and thats try and steal some thunder from Microsoft.

                      Because there's nothing at all for anyone to get excited about. All they have is this announcement and some games that might come out in time for the launch. There's no specs or anything.

                        Maybe they were talking about the fiscal year, which doesn't end for Sony until March 31st 2006. That would be just after the supposed March launch in Japan.

                        Just a thought. We'll know soon.

                          This also makes alot of sense. So many things get misintrupted I wouldn't be shocked if you were right.

                            why don't you wait until E3 is over before we all jump at this one. If it comes out this year that would be great, if it don't then oh well.

                              I just hope neither company rushes there systems to the extent where there is any sort of defect, ie the thomson drives in the original XBox's.
