Playsation 3 Coming to Europe As Planned  by Craig D at 01:19

Playstation
Computer and Video Games is reporting that Sony will announce full Playstation 3 launch details for Europe by the end of January and we will indeed see the machine launched by the end of March as planned and it will not be delayed any further as has been rumoured.

I can't help feeling that if the machine was selling better in the USA and Japan that the European launch would have been delayed much further without a doubt. As it is, they have spare machines so might as well let the hardcore in Europe have the machines rather than let them sit on shelves in American stores.

High price and lack of quality games (yet) would seem to be the issue.

"lack of quality games" is a little harsh for it's launch IMO...

Resistance and Ridge Racer 7 have done pretty well.

Not to mention I very much doubt any of those games come close to being as good as zelda is.

Regardless of how good it is, the slow sales must be slightly worrying for Sony
