Why is this a surprise?. Sony talk about games coming about 2 years in advance.

M$ seem not to need to. They concentrate every E3 with the games iminent after E3 within 9 months. So as I said after this years E3, there is no doubt that M$ probably have at least 10 games of high production value for 2009 that we wont be told about till spring.

Good on M$, why concentrate on games released over a year from the date.

The problem is MS first-party development is much smaller than Nintendo's or Sony's they rather buy exclusives from Epic, Bioware etc.

 Alan Wake... FF13...(supposed megaton and it wont even be released till 2010) please get your facts straight. Sony isn't the only guilty one of announcing titles years before. And the only game left that has been announced years ago is Killzone 2 and that will be out soon. When is alan wakes release date again?

Forza 3 being announced next year and then Sony releasing GT5 the same month, now that would be very cruel on behalf of Sony.

 

 considering prologue's out now we finally get the whole game? and both titles are exclusive to thier console how is it cruel???????

At E3 what did Sony show that is AAA for this christmas??? Even R2 is AA so far according to metacritic. E3 for Sony has always focused on games 1-2 years down the line. M$ regularly focus on the coming christmas and early the next year. As all gen M$ have done this I expect no different for 2009. Yes they have touted a couple, but compared to what Sony do every E3 1 or 2 games from M$ 2 years in advance doesnt hurt.

LOL LBP I give you. 1 game.

Your point number 2. Did you read my last sentence. I said M$ do have 1 or 2 games shown for 1-2 years down the line, but Sony show usually in the region of 6-10. Then when it's th E3 of the year it's released Sony hardly plug it. Even MGS4 didnt get the Gears sort of treatment.
