Title: Is the NGP getting a global launch

(https://acidmods.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mcvuk.com%2Fstatic%2Fimages%2Fnews%2F43422%2F184_24811_NGP_111111_a.jpg%3Fi%3D1299745139&hash=9b064b5fde8d6f3a7c50d297cee5a249b2653e8b)

    Apparently MCV (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/43422/NGP-to-hit-Europe-this-year) got some inside intel that is pointing to a Europe launch date of November 11th.  And as we all know North America tends to launch at the same time or just days after.  however Japan tends to get everything first but in this case i don't think that would work with the current time line.

     It seems all of these rumors are coming from Sony telling some of the western devs to be done there games by the end of summer so deployment can begin in the Autumn

     Unfortunately Jack Tretton of SCEA had to all but kill the idea of a global launch saying "it's very difficult to have the quantities to be able to launch on a worldwide basis on the same date" and that "our goal is get at least one territory out by the end of holiday 2011". however he didn't say who would be getting it by the end of the year!  Also he did say it would be hard, not that it won't happen.  I prefer to think that that means there is a chance

     What do you guys think will the NGP be the first Sony product to get a global launch?
