PS3 UK Launch details.

[n3crius]

Anyone know what games are lined up for launch?

Will the PS3 be stupidly sold out in 5 nanoseconds?

 

[doodah]

I know these 5 are launch titles:

Resistance
Motor Storm
NFS Carbon
COD3
VF5

 

[n3crius]

hmmm was hoping for F1 to be available. it's one of the games i think looks amazing.

 

[FrankJH]

VF5? Virtual Fighter?

 

[MonkieMann]

Will the PS3 be stupidly sold out in 5 nanoseconds?

I predict ... no

Seeing as they still have plenty in Japan (thanks mainly to the wii)

I think you'll be able to get one

Japan will also get a lot more than Europe - let alone the UK, so there is no telling

 

[roboffer]

If the quoted 220,000 arrive, I think you should be able to get one relatively easily im comparison to the 360 and Wii launches

The wife is gutted that Singstar got put back.

 

[wedgie]

Best launch line up ever imo.

If I didn't already have a 360 I would be seriously considering a PS3 at launch.

 

["andy"]

indeed people who dont already have a 360 or super dooper PC are in for some good gaming for a launch

 

[Tom84]

Best launch line up ever imo.

You think? Other than a load of conversions that Ive already played on my 360 it looks pretty weak IMO. Resistance looks awesome but thats about it that does it for me out of that lineup.

Having said that though, i know if i cancel my pre-order and then cant get one ill be frustrated as hell, so as much as i want to wait till there are titles i want (and in turn have price come down from id have pay from launch) ill proberly keep my reservation.

Just hope Resistance keeps me hooked.....

 

[FrankJH]

Looks like everything is covered - a reasonable line up for sure but nothing amazing

Looking forward to Motorstorm, F1 and possibly retro gaming with Sonic plus some d/l's (hope these are really cheap)

At least the peripheral prices are reasonable (the wireless controller is a little steep though)

Isn't that what he just said above? If I didn't already have a 360...

 

[Abooie]

Aye it's a very good half-year-old line up

 

[JaFFa]

check this out http://uk.gamespot.com/news/6165444.html?action=convert&click=latestnews&tag=latestnews;title;2

If the japs arent buying then the UK prob wont be too heavy on sustained demand.

 

["andy"]

dunno what to think

friends are still having major problems even preordering them in high street shops

either because the shops feel the pre order list is too big or because they dont know how many they are getting on the day. weiiird

 

[Demon]

Plenty of shops I've passed with big signs saying taking preorders now..

I think it'll be sold out just from Ebayers, but I am not sure how the Ebay prices will go, I am strongly suspecting it will be fairly easy to get one within the first week or two, Sony have had an age to get supply stocked up..

 

[Muffin`]

The Big Chav'y Catalouge have only taken 500 pre orders throught the company, way way lower then expected

 

[roboffer]

Its a good set of launch titles, there is no doubt about it. Obviously thats down to the delayed launch but it must be nice to be able to choose from a large selction of games, rather the general smaller selection on offer for other consoles.
