Yeah we all knew this was coming, and its sick that its to coincide with the Ps3 version, but it does is raise further questions!
All I can think is that somehow Sony fell out with Ubi. Why go from openly developing the game on the 360, to 'only Ps3' announced, if they hadn't somesort of deal with Sony? Which leads me to think now that something went wrong. Any thoughts?

just ebay it you'll at least break even with the shortages. it won't be a sony marketing plan as there legitimately is a shortage on the blue laser diodes (used by blueray and HD-DVD).

I had the PS2 article for years from when sony announced that they would only ship 500k PS2s, cut from the 1 or 2 million that they had hoped for. I still have it somewhere at home I think..

well, the blue laser diode is legitimate, as its impacting HD-DVD as well. regardless of wether sony has any additional marketing plans that will cause shortages, there will defintely be one, and ebay will be fetching a pretty hefty price.
