From Eurogamer:

Eurogamer: Obviously you're focused on the Christmas market right now, but how's Sony's 2009 line-up looking?

Shuhei Yoshida: Early next year we're releasing Killzone 2 and inFamous, and we've also been showing Heavy Rain, EyePet and MAG. So we have quite a few games already announced for release next year.

But we have some other games we haven't announced yet. As you said, we are focusing on releasing this year's Christmas titles and titles for early next year. Some time in the next year, we're going to find the right place to announce those games we haven't been able to announce.

Of course, this had already become apparent earlier this year, with the sudden announcement of games like Siren: Blood Curse (alongside the release of a playable demo, at that!), MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, and others.  Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios is certainly changing under the leadership of Shuhei Yoshida, and it seems to be for the better. 

Whlie at first I was wary of the loss of Phil Harrison, thus far I've been quite pleased with the actions of Yoshida.  Though canning Eight Days was a bit of a disappointment, he's on the whole been quite positive.

So what what's in the wings for next year that hasn't been announced yet?  A new Ratchet & Clank Future and Uncharted 2 are a given, but I wouldn't be surprised to see something from Team ICO as well.
