They did address the "world" during the PS Meeting and of which it stated "coming this holiday".

Further reports on the net stated they are pushing for a 2013 global release.
The console has also been spotted on numerous European online stores, here in Finland you can pre-order the system already for but for 1000 euro.

Since the price isn't known yet I suppose that makes sense, though be it Dutch, Finnish, French, Swedish or British websites....they all list it for November 2013 as the release date/month.

Sony is going in for the kill this time. Then tommorow they will probably have a Champions League commercial. Some banners to promote the PS4/E3 unveiling like they did with the meeting. Yeah i think Microsoft stands no chance in Europe not even the UK.

The reason Xbox even won in the Uk was because it launched 18months before ps3 and was 100 pounds cheaper.

Arai4769d ago (Edited 4769d ago )

Yeah prepare for total annihilation!

The timing couldn't be better either, XO being pounded left/right.
Commercial of sort during the Champion's League is a big deal, hell this news itself is a megaton.

Your right tommorows dortmund vs Bayern the CL final their going to show something for sure!

seanpitt234769d ago

If this is true this has just made me a very happy person.

BISHOP-BRASIL4769d ago

I belive it is. On may 7th they had a PS conference here in Brazil to announce our local factory starting to produce PS3s, by the end they had a Q&A where they basically confirmed the console will release here the same day as US and the rest of the world.

(about 44 minutes or a bit before if I'm not mistaken, don't worry, it's practically all in english)

Everything pointing at a worldwide release.

g-nome4769d ago

Thought that was confirmed a while ago already.

Angeljuice4769d ago

Yes, but they usually say that then hold back the European release for several months. If they're publishing adverts then it may just happen.

d0nT wOrrY4769d ago

I'm eagarly waiting to see the PS4 ad in tomorrow's UEFA final :D

imahustla194769d ago

Pyrrhus4769d ago

If you look towards the left of the picture, thats what is normally situated in a legit piece of newspaper.

imahustla194769d ago

ur right i totally missed the part about it being a newspaper ad. congrats UK you get to join in on the new gen fun this year!

Arai4769d ago

It's as real as it gets... http://i.imgur.com/LLEU4g4....

In the Netherlands Metro newspaper used to be free (handed out or lying around at the train/bus stations).
Not sure how it is in the UK or Sweden though.

grassyknoll4769d ago

It's free in the UK too, normally situated in train stations.

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot45d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose46d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE46d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername45d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy46d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde46d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8646d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8646d ago (Edited 46d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300046d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle46d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7746d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
