    Why do people even report news from www.joystiq.com? That site is ran by a bunch of retards, they report anything that is emailed to them.

    Joystiq has gone downhill as of late. Very Xbox centric and they post week old crap from other forums... Example: http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000690065784/

    If it wasn't for Engadget (Sister site) they wouldn't have as much credibility as they do now.

    "We reported that a BBC article hinted that the PlayStation 3 would launch 22 months after the Xbox 360, putting the Sony console’s release sometime in 2007.

    Eurogamer contacted the reporter from the BBC piece and the reporter admitted it was just speculation and nothing concrete. You can now return to your second job so that you can afford Sony’s next console."

    Unless Sony has the intention of dooming itself as a corporate entity, this will not happen. And I very much doubt that is Sony's intent.

    Huh? If summer job at GameStop doesn't qualify you as an industry insider, what does?

    I don't believe Sega did anything as overtly idiotic as delaying the PS3 to late 2007/2008 in all regions. They simply got steamrolled.

    Well.

    the 32x was pretty dumb . How about doing a stealth launch that most retail chains and developers didn't know about when the saturn launched ?

    But yea i don't see late 2007 happening. I do see summer 2006 for japan and late 2006 for north america

    Do you also use your leftover cases as firewood? They burn so brightly, I think they make them out of magnesium.

    I liked Sega's "wedding cake" approach to consoles. SegaCD, Genesis and X32, plus the cart... It was cool in a "Close encounters spaceship" kind of way.:twisted:
