PlayStation 3 Cost and Release Date


Sony held it's pre-E3 press conference today, and revealed the officialy release date, cost, and the final controller design of its upcoming PlayStation 3 console, which you can find at TeamXbox here.

Basically, the PlayStation 3 will launch in North America on November 17th, and cost between $549.99 and $659.99, depending if you want a 20 or 60 GB hard disk.

Overall, this press conference was a major disappointment, with very little new news learned, no huge launch titles to look forward to, and nothing to match up to today's real announcement (see top of page once I get around to posting it).

TeamXbox comments on the PlayStation 3, and also discusses the pre-E3 conference with a Microsoft rep. here.
