"for the life of me I cannot think of any game MS could release to combat those."
I'm looking forward to Uncharted 2 as much as anyone else, but that comment from many is way off. Compare the sales between the last versions of the Sony games, and the last versions of the Microsoft games mentioned coming out next year. The sales are pretty even, if you take a look at the numbers.
Halo ODST will sell more then Kill Zone 2, and Grand Turismo 4 Sold double Forza 2 so I expect it to do the same again. The thing about next year is the titles we don't know about, that could be breakout hits from either side. Will Infamous/Alan Wake be as good as we hope? What is the next lionhead project? How about ABP, Champions, The Agency , etc. Its too early for this speculation. Everyone thought Lair and Heavenly Sword (which I like) would boost the PS3, and it didn't happen. This year was supposed to be the year of the Ps3 with Motorstorm 2, Resistance 2, and LBP (which I loved the demo) and the boost didn't happen . Let's enjoy everything from this year before we worry about a battle that won't really start till February.
Bring on Good games period.
