As the PlayStation 3 approaches its six birthday in November, Sony Worldwide Studios chief Shuhei Yoshida believes it’s the best time to have the console.
”PS3 is I think in prime time,” he said. ”It’s a great time for consumers to look at purchasing PS3 this year. There are a variety of games coming out and new and exciting games coming out next year.“At the same time the library of games we are able to offer at a very affordable price - we just announced the Essentials line in Europe. So, for the budget conscious consumer it’s a perfect new platform to join this Christmas.”
For those who already own a PS3, Yoshida says there’s plenty to look forward to.
“For people who own PS3, rest assured new content is still coming,” he said. ”Games like Last of Us and Beyond look amazing compared to the early PS3 titles. There’s still something surprising happening on the platform.”
