Four out of how many first/second party titles?  The fact is the FPS genre is currently the most represented genre by Sony's studios on the ps3, and when you factor in TPS games like Socom, the overall shooter genre is rather overpopulated, ESPECIALLY compared to other genres.   What happened to the plethora of platformers Sony used to pump out?  Ape Escape?  Jak & Daxter?  Sly Cooper?  Where are the RPGs?  We only have two decent ones this gen, and neither have come to the West yet, compared to three RPGs from Level 5 alone last gen, plus other gems like Wild Arms and the Legend of Legaia.

Sony wanted to compete with Microsoft on the shooter front this gen, and while I absolutely *love* Killzone 2 (Resistance not so much), I feel they ended up overcompensating in this area (though I suppose Resistance was more a decision on Insomniac's part than Sony's).  They've sacrificed the diversity they enjoyed last gen for shooter after shooter after shooter. 

And honestly, out of all their shooter offerings, the only really good one is Killzone 2, which stands out due to its slick style, badass enemy designs, and robust online.  However, I hear MAG is virtually lag-less (my manager played it at the GameStop manager's conference), so maybe that'll prove successful too.

I don't have a problem with this. I just hope they throw some WRPG in the mix next year. Besides what difference does this make? Its not like Sony is using their japanese first party studios to make this game and it most likely will come out sometime next year.

Wait for TGS, we will see WKC 2, 3D dot heroes, and most likely gameplay from FFXIII Versus plus PSP titles from SE like FFVIII prequel. Some of you are over reacting and yes MAG is very good.

Amen.  I hate when people generalize like this.  And of course these same people would say the reverse if the graphics were really lacking.  "The game is pretty fun, but God is it hard to look at.  Wish they would have spent more time on the visuals."

Also, to the one who said that America is lost, I don't think so.  We're only half way through this gen.  Last week PS3 outsold 360 in the US with over 75,000.  It looks to do even more damage this week, with over 125,000 units sold thanks to the Slim.  And that is before all numbers are in.  Given this week won't be a full week with the Slim out, I'm sure next week will be big too.  If Sony keeps the momentum up, it is definitely possible to reclaim the US.

Over-saturated FPS market...

There is only so much room for mega hits... though Microsoft has pushed that number up a notch or two... I wouldn't mind seeing another FPS from Sony... if they can pull one off that doesn't suffer from overhype and underexposer

Killzone 3 or Resistance 3 PLEASE!!!!!!

Sony is in the business to make money.Best way to sell:FPS.Nobody doubt it...

Sony will surely use the KZ2 engine for another shooter, no surprises there. But they would do well to focus on making it great in terms of gameplay, and unique. KZ2 was too standard, too run of the mill, just another CoD clone with different clothes.

So True...Focus on some JRPGs Sony thats where you are extremely weak right now. Leave the FPS to Gureilla and Insomniac

I hope it's an original IP they push to be honest, also a step away from sci fi opera stylings might help too. Bioshock proved there is still some fun and interesting FPS ideas out there and Sony's first party studios are talented enough to take advantage of the right idea!
