That is also a very important factor. I remember when they kept throwing out random dates for Heavenly Sword and Lair back during the 2007 drought. "They'll be out in May! Make that July. Maybe August?" |
Thank god Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted came out soon after Lair and Heavenly Sword. Otherwise 2007 would have been a complete disaster.

Basically, it just means that instead of Sony announcing a game coming out in 3 years, they're focusing on games that are actually within a year or so of being released. |
Ahh, i see thats very smart since MS wants to get there hands on everything from Mii's to Tekken 6.
Also it keeps thnings interesting and people guessing i thought sony just lied, good to know there WILL be "More"epic titles that will be out sooner or later. (JRPG's/ARPG's/SRPG's and the like even though were getting a good handful from 2008-2009 its good to know of more.)

And more imortantly, their 2009 line up is far from being fully revealed.
Tbh, 2009 is looking great thus far. Things start off with a bang, too, unlike this past year where we had no big exclusives until MGS4 in June.
Killzone 2 (and it's great, you just have to play it ;) ) - February
White Knight Chronicles - Q1/2 (December for Japan)
InFamous - May
God of War III - Q3/4
Uncharted 2 - Q4 (probably October-ish)
Ratchet & Clank Future II - Q4 (also October-ish)
And then there's other stuff like Heavy Rain, Demon's Souls, MAG, etc.

Not to mention all the multiplatform titles like Resident Evil 5 in March.

But the biggest one, GT 5 should also be coming that year, as well as FF XIII as an exclusive in Japan, so it will be a very good year for PS3 owners!
2009 will be the year of the PS3!!!!

I'm not saying this as a criticism, but why does the PS3 (or any console for that matter) have to have a "year of console X" to be successful? I see the PS3's success as one in which it slowly builds up to a critical mass of machines (which it is doing nicely), and the game library maturing/filling out. The *only* weakness I see right now in the library is the inexplicable lack of JRPGs, but I'm sure that will change as well over time.
I'm not waiting for the Year of the PS3 to roll around... I think the PS3's time came when it starting selling +100% year-on-year on a regular basis, and when titles like MSG4, COD4, etc. arrived for it. One of these days someone is going to look around and notice that the PS3 is running full steam ahead, and they're going to say "hey, when did that happen?". 
Just my two cents.

GT5 is coming in 2010. The dev confirmed it some months ago... @Torillian |
It wasn't confirmed, but it likely won't make it out until 2010.
Also, I wouldn't call Mario Kart and ANimal Crossing small.

Because everyone had labelled 2008 as the year of the PS3, so now that has to be shifted! (I am joking in case you haven't guessed)
| Soriku said: @making Doesn't AC release like next month? Or is it in December. That's like 5-6 months in between release and announcement. As for MK Wii...when was that announced? |
I think E3 2007 alongside with Wii Fit
Wasn't Animal Crossing announced at E3 in July? And it's releasing in November. Mario Kart was first announced in August of last year.
Either way, even 5-6 months between announcement and release is a really short period of time.
