Us being naive? How about you being a complete tool. For one, Sony doesn't really have all that much to translate... at all. Big deal, change the language on the interface. And you speak of the US, but forget about North America as a whole. Generally speaking there are 3 main languages. That being English, Spanish, and French.
And if you think the launch is being held up due to language differences, then you my friend are naive.
No, i do not believe language differences are the reason why it's delayed, it just happened to be one of the things that came to mind at the time as to why Europe always happens to be third. I guess it just happens to be easier to leave us till last due to additional difficulties with releasing a console, so much more work involved in releasing in a territory that has has so many different languages, retailers, currencies and slight cultural variations.
next time i post, i'll be sure to run by you a complete break down of every issue involved in the global release and marketing of the PS3, one can't simply offer a lone idea to the mix can they, my friend?

Anyway you wont want one or the 1st or 2nd or maybe even 3rd batch of PS3's!... they'll all crash f**k up & have disc read error's! they couldn't even get DVD right in the PS2! i had to have 4 PS2's before i got 1 that worked..... & still the laser was s**t so when u were watching a film you got lip sync problems.

It's unfair to point that squarely at PS3 - pretty much every launch is backed by a poor line up. I thought the launch titles for 360 were on the whole disappointing; only PGR managed to pique my interest, but that waned quickly - it is only a shinier, higher res MSR after all.
I think Wii has the best prospect for good launch titles; it's reputed to be very much like developing for Gamecube, flattening the learning curve and increasing developer output.

It would be unfair if it was the only thing, but going by the promises made before the PS2 launch + the utter dribble that has been spouted since E3 05 for the PS3 (tech demos, specs, dates, controllers) + the "me too" attitude Sony has adopted I wouldn’t call it unfair...
I also believe Wii will have a stunning line up and hope Nintendo do extremely well - i'll be seriously considering getting one

I'm really into what Nintendo are doing with the Wii, its interesting & innovative & at that price level i'm sure i'll be stumbling home drunk one night only to wake up the next day 2 find a new Wii console & a copy of Red Steel magically under my telly!.....
