Well right now neither of their competition (Microsoft and Nintendo) have showed their big guns yet. They are both holding out for a bit. Sony does have a good lineup this year but you also can't compare it to anything because everyone is keeping hush hush on what they really have. The only games we know about for Microsoft are games announced years ago or the newest Halo: ODST announced slightly after E3 2008.

Same thing happened last year.  We knew about every big game from Microsoft last year years in advance, except for Gears 2 and Viva Pinata 2.  Even then, Gears 2 was heavily rumored, kind've like Forza 3 and ME2 now (though ME2 ended up being a 2010 title, something I did not expect).

Fable, Banjo, and Lost Odyssey were all announced in 2006 or earlier.  Same goes for their titles this year, like Alan Wake.

I doubt MS will announce much for this year outside of Forza 3 and a new Rare project.

Well we found out about Lips, Ninja Blade, You're In the Movies, Gears of War 2 and Viva Pinata 2 all really late or happened to be because of rumor. They also had the whole NXE thing which was rumored close to E3.

While a lot of those games ended up sucking I doubt MS is only going to announce a new Rare game. I know Peter M has a new game he wants to show and M.S. said they are going to try to break the bank at E3 so one or two more games wouldn't really do that because that'd be ordinary. I'm going to have to say E3 this year we are going to hear about a lot of games because it looks like Microsoft purposely has not been feeding us anything so by the time E3 rolls around we will be so hungry that everything will look better than it really is.
