150,000 PS3’s For Great Britain At Launch – UPDATED!
UPDATE 1: We warned you to treat this as rumor till we got official clarification and we just got the next best thing… second hand official clarification… sort of, coming via a rather smug news post by Computer And Videogames. They claim to have contacted the guys at the Official PlayStation Magazine (from whence this rumor apparently sprung) who denied ever throwing out the 150,000 figure.
So there you have it, we still don’t know how many PS3’s will be available at the European launch, but as soon as we have word, you’ll be the first to know.
If you’ve got any connections on the inside, now might be a good time to start tapping them. German videogame site Gamefront is reporting that there are to be 150,000 PS3’s available for Great Britain at launch. A rough extrapolation would probably put the total number of European PS3’s available at launch somewhere in the vicinity of 500,000 units (note this is pure speculation on my part). Either way it’s likely going to be a little difficult to pick one up. Got your pre-orders in yet? Still, until we get solid word from Sony, it’s best to treat this little tidbit as a rumor.
