http://www.gamesindustry.biz/releases.php This was entirely unexpected by me. A quick view of this link shows that, especially for the 2nd half of the year, sony will dominate with the numbers of titles produced for its respective console. Why? the only awnser that I can supply is Sony's much vaunted 3rd party support and sony's past history as the maker of so many "mediocre" budget games. Perhaps that is what is going on here.... OR it could be that most of the software companies are siding with sony. Either way...I'll leave it for you guys to analyze.

but i'm talking about announcements for this year, and so is my link. This brings me back, to my original question; why is this?

Because at last years E3 developers were far more optimistic about the PS3 (and pesimistic about the Wii and XBox 360) than they currently are and announced more projects with later planned delivery dates ... Essentially, the big momentium changes in the past year were E3 2006 (where the PS3 announced a $500/$600 system and Nintendo stole the show with a 6 to 8 hour line-up for the Wii) and the launches of the PS3 and Wii (where the PS3 made a far smaller impact than most people anticipated, while the Wii made a much larger impact than anticipated) ... The time many/most projects for Q3/Q4 2007 and Q1/Q2 2008 will be demonstrated (with a reasonably solid release date) is in June at E3 2007 ...

That is a European launch list. Which means to be fair you should look at all of the games that already out for the 360 as well as the wii as the ps3 is now playing catch up. In other words nothing unique here or special for Sony. All they are doing is putting out games they already have out in other markets plus some new ones. It would be better to look at NA release schedule. Let's see using ign's listing that contain '2007' labels.... (This obviously does not include any games already released) 360 ... 167 games ps3 ... 136 games Wii ... 87 games So, i would say that pre-e3 details, 360 has the strongest launch. After e3 could be any of them as the support of wii has really been growing and quite a few publishers have stated they are supporting unnamed projects for Wii. Whereas I am betting with the exception of a few more exclusives going multi-platform the other two won't have any major new info.

Simple - all those 360 games already released are yet to be ported/released on the PS3. I think there are a lot of titles for all three consoles not even close-to-announced.

I'm sure the wii's numbers will go up, as we keep hearing about yet to be announced titles for Nintendo's console. I'm still sure Nintendo hasn't told us everything there even making.

At this stage of the game, what matters the most is how many system sellers you have, not actual raw numbers of games. Wii already has one. PS3, zero.
