I thought "CBOAT" was a XBox insider? How would he know the PS3 launch time frame?

 

[robertsan21]

if MS is launching first then Sony truly fucked something up. CBOAT I trust thee.

 

[SwiftDeath]

I believe in CBOAT.

HIS CHEEKS.
HIS WORD.

[Creaking]

CBOAT made me believe. November is going to hurt a bit, even if it makes the most sense.

 

[DragonSworne]

I'll be putting VG247 on my ignore list in an hour.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Probably surrounded by other 'insiders' who happen to know/hear things probably.

 

[zewone]

Another GAF member stated his retail inventory listed a Sony console releasing on Oct 21.

 

[Claude Kenni]

Calling this click bait is incredibly dumb. So if they are correct were they supposed to not post it because Sony will announce it later?

People are acting like posting a report with quite possibly real information is bad journalism when it's the exact opposite, they would be bad journalists if they DIDN'T post this with a source rumoring a November release.

You broke it.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

If its late November the Fifa deal was brilliant.

 

[Can Crusher]

Why would you put bad info out there an hour before it's officially announced?

I'm doubting CBOAT.

 

[Mystery]

VG247 link says that a US launch date will likely be earlier. I think they mean November for EU.

 

[Mr Swine]

Only way I can see Sony launching PS4 in late November is if they have problems manufacturing PS4

 

[Bsigg12]

I thought "CBOAT" was a XBox insider? How would he know the PS4 launch time frame?

Maybe he was told what Microsoft is expecting?

VG247 link says that a US launch date will likely be earlier. I think they mean November for EU.

You read that wrong.

Furthermore, Xbox One will apparently launch slightly earlier in at least one territory – probably the US – according to the source.

Orrr risk being wrong and looking like jackasses literally an hour before we find out the actual release date.

I'd rather not risk my credibility and just wait for official confirmation.

 

[NinjaCarrot]

Never doubt the buttocks of truthfacts.

Think you read it wrong. It mentions coming shortly after X1 in US last I looked.

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

I will ride with CBOAT anyday. Good or bad news.

[msdstc]

It's been back and forth, but sony definitely has lost quite a bit of momentum/edge over microsoft. They will lose their last competitive edge for EU if they can't launch before the x1.

 

[Deadly Joker]

Live by the CBOAT.

Die by the CBOAT.

 

[bassman2112]

Alright guys, it's the Saltybet of Gamescom

Player 1 is CBOAT

Player 2 is VG247

I'm betting cboat

 

[BlazingDarkness]

VG247 link says that a US launch date will likely be earlier. I think they mean November for EU.

No, it says the Xbone will release slightly earlier in the US.
Which would mean Xbone beats PS4 to launch in the US, and Xbone has the FIFA 14 to conquer the launch parity in Europe.
MS wins both. (In theory)

 

[macewank]

Orrr risk being wrong and looking like jackasses literally an hour before we find out the actual release date.

They wouldn't have posted it if they didn't have a reason to believe it's accurate information.

It's medium-risk, high reward. Makes sense to me

it's click bait because they completely made up the rumor.

we already know it's coming out October thanks to CBOAT

 

[HamPster PamPster]

Famousmortimer too said he doesn't believe in Oct release.

Pack your shit guys, it's over

I'm on #teammortimer

 

[ethomaz]

Even I know the PS3 launch time frame

 

[Black Republican]

Have 2 different consoles ever released on the same date?

 

[True Underdog]

Clenching my cheeks in support of his glory, truth, and honor. Join me brothers.

[DracoBlade]

in Europe? sure.

[SHADES]

VG247 link says that a US launch date will likely be earlier. I think they mean November for EU.

Would Sony really go to Gamescom to announce to the Europeans they'll be getting the console later than the US?

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Damnit, I knew I should have made a new thread instead of posting it in the other thread. Oh well.

 

[maabus1999]

It's been back and forth, but sony definitely has lost quite a bit of momentum/edge over microsoft. They will lose their last competitive edge for EU if they can't launch before the x1.

If they do launch earlier, and X1 supply ends us being "reasonable", then I would say the yield issue either A.) was solved or B.) never occured/false rumor.

 

[kyoakuma]

which console i get litterally depends on what one comes first

 

[Claude Kenni]

Orrr risk being wrong and looking like jackasses literally an hour before we find out the actual release date.

I'd rather not risk my credibility and just wait for official confirmation.

But they didn't confirm the news, it's a rumor. If they have reason to believe it's possible why should they not post it?

And the other guy saying CBOAT can't be wrong is just silly. He's not even a Sony insider. Calling this rumor "made up" is absolutely baseless.

 

[kaching]

Don't be too hard on VG247, guys. At least they're giving us a morsel to chew on during the last hour before the conference.

 

[Midas]

Would Sony really go to Gamescom to announce to the Europeans they'll be getting the console later than the US?

That would be stupid. But crazier things have happened.

 

[Jonboy]

 

[Gaz_RB]

This is too intense... If its late November CBOAT and Gaf are gonna lose some credibility. We've been chanting late October for days.

I can't take this!

 

[DracoBlade]

Don't be too hard on VG247, guys. At least they're giving us click bait during the last hour before the conference.

Fixed.

 

[Moozo]

In buttocks we trust

 

[Jack_AG]

I was told October and nope I'm not telling anyone who told me.

 

[Apath]

PS3 and Wii launched within days of each other, if I remember correctly.

November 18th (PS3) vs November 19th (Wii).
Edit: Nope, way off. Wiki says November 11th, but I remember waiting outside two nights in a row. Whatever.

Edit 2: Okay, November 17th in the US.

 

[RulkezX]

October for key Eu countries + US , late November for the rest of Europe. Japan TBD

 

[Socky]

Would Sony really go to Gamescom to announce to the Europeans they'll be getting the console later than the US?

When have Europe ever got a console before the US?

At the same time, maybe, but even that seems doubtful.

 

[Finalizer]

CBOAT vs VG247

Who will be right?

IN HALF AN HOUR...

 

[FZZ]

CBOAT vs. VG247

My mind is telling me VG247 but my body my body's telling me CBOAT

 

[m23]

FamousMortimer vs VG247 vs Cboat

Will be interesting to come back to this thread after the conference.

 

[Radec]

its only a matter of minutes now, just wait.
