Sony PS3 Launch Date: March 23rd 2007

26/01/07

That’s the day when the PS3 finally goes on sale in Europe. It’s also the day you won’t stand chance of getting one, unless you’ve been smart and pre-ordered one already or, start dusting off that sleeping bag now.

What’s more, only the 60GB version will be available at launch for £425 so, if you’ve been saving for the 20GB version, it’s time to double that paper route or mug more grannies. Interestingly, the rest of Europe will only be paying £395. The 20GB version will come later.

There will be one million PS3 units going on sale on March 23, with around 250,000-300,000 expected to come to the UK. Sony said there will also be an update of the system software to ‘enhance the entertainment potential’ of PS3 but no details on just what means. Will keep you updated.
