Driver: San Francisco dated for the UK

Driver: San Francisco

We’ve learned via Eurogamer that high street retailer GAME has let slip (deliberately, we imagine) the UK release date for Ubisoft’s approaching Driver game. The long-awaited title arrives on November 26th, which incidentally is the same month Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops, Polyphony Digital’s Gran Turismo 5, Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet 2 and Criterion Games’ Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit are expected.

If any of you out there are looking to purchase a PS3 this summer, we advise you to strike while the iron’s very, very hot.

As originally reported by GhostStorm, WHSmith is currently selling the console at the unbelievable price of £200. GhostStorm has since made contact to investigate the reasons behind this surprising business move and, after speaking with the retailer’s customer services department, the answer was:

'We are clearing PS3s to make room for any new products that may come from Sony in the future.'

The above statement begs the following question: are they expecting the arrival of the awaited PS3 Slim, of which rumours are already circulating? After all, WHSmith has explained they have no intention of discontinuing other consoles in-store, nor do they plan to stop selling PS3 titles. Could they be privy to a 2009 release date?
