Announcing… an announcement: PS3 launch date in Europe

All Sony‘s ever said about the European PS3 launch was that it will happen on March. And so far, so good. Signs point to a definite release for Europe. But with all this talk, there hasn’t been an announcement of exactly when the launch date is.

CVG just reported that a source of theirs claimed that Europe’s launch details will be announced “likely to go ahead at the end of January.” And just a few hours later, they updated their report by saying that a Sony spokesperson has indeed confirmed this.

Expect us to be on our toes for this announcement. Some time at the end of this month, all the clouds covering Europe’s launch will finally be dispelled to shed some light on the waiting gamers. Will it follow the repetitive-digits of the Japan and North America releases (11-11 and 11-17, respectively)? Could Europeans notch their calendars at 03-03? We’re not sure yet, but for now, the only thing we can notch onto the calendars is “the end of January.”
