PS3 November delay official -- other deets revealed


PS3 November delay official -- other deets revealed: "Filed under: Gaming, HDTV, Home Entertainment So, not only did we get all those PSP goodies this morn from Sony's Ken Kutaragi at a hastily called press conference, but we also received official confirmation that indeed, the PS3 will ship worldwide in November. A delay from 'Spring' that we all expected but Sony had staunchly denied as recently as just a few weeks ago. Sony lays the blame squarely at the feet of the 'copyright protection' in Sony's own Blu-ray Disc next-gen format which is now expected to be finalized by next month. Whatevs, at this point, we'll just be happy to see ours land Stateside in time for Xmas. Mr. Kutagari also confirmed that at least some PS3s will feature an upgradeable 60GB disk supporting the Linux OS, support a variety of TVs, and play games created for PlayStation 1 and 2. Also, that rumored HUB service was confirmed which goes by the working title of the PlayStation Network Platform and will be free (the Basic version anyway) supporting voice/video chat, messsaging, on-line shopping, and more. While an exact price was not released, a minimum price range was announced of about $425. Click read for the full story over at Joystiq."
