PS Vita Hitting as Early as October?

Posted on Friday, July 29 @ 13:26:50 Eastern by Josh_Laddin
An IGN reader (hey, put those those torches and pitchforks down!) has started up a bunch of PS Vita buzz by sending an image of a supposed Blockbuster ad in the UK that gives an October 28th, 2011 European release date for the handheld. While clearly still in rumor territory, this gives prospective Vita buyers hopes of playing the system a lot sooner than anyone anticipated... at least in Europe. On a side note—Blockbuster still has brick-and-mortar stores?


Nothing about a North American release has been mentioned yet. It's too early to tell if there's any credence to this rumor, but October sounds like a pipe dream to me. I think it's in the ballpark for a potential release window, but I wouldn't bet on anything before mid-November myself. Start speculating in the comments, because if there's one thing the internet does best, it's rampant rumor-mongering!

    I'd say November. With MW3 as a launch title. Yeah, wild guess.

    I'm going to guess first quarter 2012. The same thing happen with the PSP. There was a hyped and rumored holiday release, and it came out in March.

    But with the 3DS price cut, I think Sony has to figure that if they don't make it out for the holiday season they'll have found themselves in a huge hole to dig out of before they can even think about catching up.

    Good point, but I think the reason the 3DS isn't doing well is from lack of interest, not the price point. I believe most people think, "Do I really need 3D in my DS". Especially the parents. And look at the PSV, its got a $250 and $300 price point and people are excited about that price.

    If they want me to buy it, I'll need CRYSIS 2 on it. Call of duty just isn't enough. Mortal Kombat would be nice too. Shit, I'd get the 3G model to play that anywhere anytime.

    Could they port CRYSIS 2 to the PSV without it looking like sh*t? Seriously, no joke, I thought that CRYSIS 2 was supposed to be a beast graphically.
