First, lets eliminate games which have not sold more than 1 Million units worldwide and were not released for the PS2:
USA:
- Sony Studio Santa Monica : God of War
- Incognito (SCEA Studio Santa Monica) : Twisted Metal
- Naughty Dog : Jak and Daxter
- Insomniac : Rachet and Clank
- Zipper Interactive : SOCOM : US Navy SEALs
Europe:
- Sony Studio London: (Studio Soho, Studio Camden) : Eye-toy games, The getaway
Japan:
- Polyphony Digital : Gran Turismo 3
- Clap Hanz : Hot Shots Golf
As you notice, the list of studios with games people actually care about is pretty small for Sony ...
Now if you cross that list with games which have been well reviewed (90% or higher on Gamerankings.com) you get:
USA:
- Sony Studio Santa Monica : God of War
- Naughty Dog : Jak and Daxter
- Insomniac : Rachet and Clank
Japan:
- Polyphony Digital : Gran Turismo 3
As everyone has always said, the Playstation brand has always sold based on the strength of its third party support; if it loses third party support it is not that strong of a platform.
now lets correct your list since some of those titles did sell a million
Sony Studio Santa Monica : God of War (PS2), God of War II (PS2),
Twisted Metal 3 (PS1)
Twisted Metal Black (PS2),
Naughty Dog : Crash Bandicot 1,2, 3 (PS1), Jak and Daxter 1, 2, 3, X(PS2)
Insomniac : Rachet and Clank 1,2,3, Resistence fall of Man (PS3
Zipper Interactive : SOCOM : US Navy SEALs (PS2)
Cool Boarders 2,3
Polyphony Digital : Gran Turismo (PS1), Gran Turismo 3, Proloog en 4 (PS2
Sony Studio London: (Studio Soho, Studio Camden) : Eye-toy games, The getaway
Clap Hanz : Hot Shots Golf
