Guess the console launch-dates *spawn
- Thread starter grndzro
- Start date
[rampant speculation]What if software has progressed at an equally steady and swift pace as hardware? If that is the case then launch games could be all lined up and ready when the hardware launches.[/rampant speculation]
...Of course, if wishes were horses...
I think we should expect november, as per usual.

I'm giving them a shot with late October
Some cross generation titles are also releasing late October, so it wouldn't be too "out there" if that did happen.
November 23rd seems to be a favourite after that leak from Amazon(?)

Yeah, my idea of a "sneaky early launch" would be late October, not like August or September. If it launched October 29th, that's my birthday so I'd be cool with that!
Saturn set the precedent
But as they said on GAF, the real issue here is 3rd party software, the huge stuff presumably coming in mid Nov. Unless they want to launch with only exclusives, and provided those exclusives are ready.
AC Black flag is coming October 29th, so It isn't really out there.
LOL, yes Sony is ahead of schedule with production, FCC, etc. yet they are going to miss Black Friday and commit retail suicide. Is this a serious prediction or just what you want to happen?
They are both going to hit by the end of Nov no matter what, they question is when and in how many regions.
I dunno wait and see what happens. According to neogaf the ps4 was going to ship yesterday.

MS: Nov 15th
Sony: Dec 7th
Neither is retail suicide since all of these units are for pre-orders anyway.

If the PS4 really is sold out of pre-orders, then the advantage of launching early doesn't exist. In fact, the rate limit of sales isn't pre-orders, it's manufacturing capacity. So the only importance in a launch date is have a decent chunk of non pre-order stock available for sale on Black Friday so retailers can draw in large crowds. That's it.
