TOKYO -- As speculated yesterday, Sony will launch its next generation PlayStation 3 console in November, its top executive said Wednesday. The console will go on sale in Japan, North America, and Europe at the same time, said Ken Kutaragi, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI), at a briefing for software developers in Tokyo today. That would make the PlayStation 3 the first console that SCEI has launched simultaneously in major markets. The company will aim for production of 1 million units per month to satisfy launch demand, said Kutaragi. Including units produced ahead of the launch date, SCEI expects to have around 6 million consoles in the market by March 2007, he said. Kutaragi also presented some of the main specifications for the PlayStation 3 although he held off on offering specific details. The PlayStation 3 will boast legacy compatibility with PlayStation and PlayStation 2 content, support for the Blu-ray Disc video disc format, compatibility with television resolutions from standard to 'full HD,' the latest version of the HDMI interface, a broadband network connection, wireless connectivity and a 60G-byte hard-disk drive, Kutaragi said. haha Enjoy just gettin U informed... haha
