Oh I missed your first paragraph, I only saw one about a bunch of Move games which got released within a year.

I did say games with bi-annual releases get announced much sooner to release (Uncharted's and Resistance games), but you did name 4 non-bi-weekly releases released within 2 years. So I'll give you some counter examples.

White Knight Chronicles was announced in fall 2007, and released in early 2010. Nearly 2.5 years.

FYI white chronicles was released in Japan on Dec. 2008. With your gaming knowledge. You should know the entire process of localization.

MAG was announced E3 2008, and released January 2010, bit over 1.5 years

Not 2 years like you keep mentioning. Pretty normal.

3D Dot Game Heros was announced August 2009, and released May 2010, that's nearly 2 years.

Again was released on Japan first. The game was released in Japan on November 5, 2009. Localization process. FYI It's from "From Software" not Sony.

My bad

White Knight Chronicles 2 was announced at TGS 2009, and wasn't released until September 2011, thats close to 2 years.

Again was released in Japan first. July 2010.

The Last Guardian was announced in 2007,so it's over 3.5 years now.

I said after 2008. That's past and history already.

Twisted Metal was announced E3 2010, but won't release until February 2012, that's 1 and 3/4 years.

Not 2 years. Pretty normal.

 

Note, several of these games were announced before 2008, but these are the games Sony is releasing in recent years. If many of them were announced a while back, it's likely many of the current projects could be delayed. You argue that since 2008 Sony has released most of their announced exclusives on short timeframes, but that's just because the ones still in development since aren't released yet. This is a key point of logic (how can a game with a 3-4 year release to announce gap have been announced 2 years ago, and released?)

 

We son't see as many games with over 2 years development time, I agree, but who is to say Last Guardian won't be delayed another year? Heavy Rain was a recent title and that had a 3.5 year development time, GT5 was 5 years, and both of those games are recently released PS3 games. Yes I do keep bringing these games up because it's common for Sony to announce several of their games years before release, and this prroves my statement. Most games are about 2 years though, with a handful closer to 1 year.

But it is in the past it was announced by what 2006? 2007? What year do we live in now? Of course their would be delays. I am not even arguin about that. One example is Gears 3. It was supposed to released last year IIRC. A lot of publisher do it it's not exclusive to Sony.

Also to be fair, we could add GT6 to the list of upcoming games. Polyphony Digital has confirmed they are working on it, but haven't mentioned which platform. I doubt that game will release before fall 2013 though, so another 2 year wait at least.

Isn't  it common knowledge they are already working on GT 6 already. It's like asking activision if they are working on their next COD or any other developer if they are working on their projects or games .

I am sorry you are really stretching and cherry picking here. >_>

Paragraph 2 - except for biannual releases like Uncharted, most of PS3's exclusives are announced 2 years before release.

Atleast show me a list to prove your point and not your knowledge about the matter.

Why does making a list of 2012 titls derail the thread? OP talks about upcoming games, I point out, there aren't many, and I doubt most of which will release any time soon (2012). If Sony announced 40 games tomorrow, to be released over the next 10 years, would you be shocked at the number of games, or realize that the content per year isn't much. I am the later.

Just read shinobi's post and Jay's.  I am tired of repeating myself.

Why did I want to make the line-up look more dry? To show the generation is coming to an end. All consoles are getting dryer line ups. Instead of being excited about the leftover PS3 games, we should be looking into PS4's.

What does that have to do with the thread?

You know what Michaal-5. I am pretty sure you have used Wiki on the release date but why did you left out the release date of Japan from a Japanese game and only use the release date of USA. It's a common knowledge that a game that came from Japan will always be release on Japan first especially if it's catered for Japanese audience. It's also common knowledge that we have to wait because of localization. That's why FF, Tales with an excepmtion of Vesperia, KH and Mostly JRPG release on Japan first.

Not all games take forever to localize, Final Fantasy XIII-2 releases like 2 months after it's Japan release. Japanese titles are no exception to Sony's first party library.

Also 1.5 years for some titles balances out with 2.5 for others. 2 years is a common normal.

For GT6, Polyphony Digital officiall announced they are working on a GT6. The game has been announced. Were not talking about knowing a game is in development (We all knew there was going to be an Uncharted 3 after Uncharted 2).

I'm cherry picking? Most games fall within a 1.5-2.5 year announce to release span, and I said same are noticably longer (like Last Guardian, which still isn't out). Who is to say their games announced 2008 and after won't be delayed? Maybe Starhawk will be a 2014 title? How can you know that it won't given Sony's past history? I mean since the launch of PS3 there has always been a game in development which didn't release until over 3 years after launch, and I'm sure after Last Guardian releases, there will be something else (likely a PS4 game though).

Confiming my arguement to 2012 games doesn't derail the thread. The thread is about Past present and future PS3 games, we all know past and present are excellent, so I only commented about the future. You don't have to quote just me, if I only talk about half the OP.

As for the PS3 dying, it has a lot to do with the thread. Were talking about Sony's great games, past, present, and future. The future is PS4, PS3 doesn't have much left in it.

I mean I didn't expect 10+ responses to my comment, I was just pointing out this observation of mine. People are too sensitive. If talking about PS3's future being dry is too much for you, then talk about the present, geez.
