History repeats itself once again?

Sony gives you much more information, sooner on games. (only once)

Can't we at least wait till the first major gaming conference? Sheesh.
But im going to say the Wii wins until then.  |
Is there anything wrong with that? There's no reason at all to delay announcing games. If someone's looking at a console to buy they can see PS3 with a large amount of amazing games announced or they can look at the Wii with no Nintendo games shown at all. I'm sure it's influenced someone.

People looking at a games console will be looking more at the released library than the upcoming lineup.
- 8 AAA shooters
- 3 AAA WRPGs
- 1 AAA Racing
- 1 AAA Sandbox
- 2 AAA music
- 1 AAA puzzle
- etc
Just looking at that evil Metacritic place...

That's just untrue. PS3 would be in a terrible position if it didn't keep the hype train rolling for unreleased games back when it had "no good games".
If you take casual/non-gamers out of the equation entirely and look at hardcore gamers/people on games forums/people who buy into all the hype I would imagine the Wii, PS3 and the 360 are all on an equal level sales-wise.

Are you implying that hardcore gamers who haven't purchased at least one console system exist in any great numbers? The people on these forums pretty much all own consoles, and 2nd/3rd systems aren't exactly big money spinners for console companies.
At this point Microsoft's philisophy is under-promise and over deliver. So one must remember that when comparing games lineups at this point.
