Microsoft have recently said they have a few unannounced secrets up their sleeves for next year which include core, casual and Kinect titles. But Sony's already announced line up for 2011 is pretty ridiculous, considering none of them get delayed:
Mass Effect 2 - January
LittleBigPlanet 2 - January
Killzone 3 - February
Motorstorm Apocalypse - Spring
Yakuza 4 - Spring?
Socom 4: Special Forces -Spring?
Ico/Shadow of the Colossus Collection - Spring
Ratchet and Clank: All4One - TBD 2011
Twisted Metal - Spring/Fall?
inFamous 2 - Sometime 2011
Resistance 3 - September
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception - November
Journey - TBD 2011
Pixel Junk Shooter 2 - TBD 2011
Didn't include 'The Last Guardian' because that does not have an official release window yet and it would be stupid if Sony released that game in the highly clustered coming year. Microsoft have Gears of War 3 and Forza 4 as their big fall releases, but I bet Rare or 343 Industries might reveal something. I have no idea what Nintendo have since they been silent but considering they had a pretty good year for the Wii, my guess is that they will probably focus on the 3DS next year. But dude, all that investment into independent studios has really paid off for Sony, especially in the coming year.
2011, Year of the PS3?
Not all those games will even make it past 90% on gamerankings. We know LBP 2, killzone 3 and uncharted 2 will be, that's given. I'm more interested in 3rd party games for 2011.
" 4 shooters, 2 crappy open world games, and little big planet...I dunno I'm kinda tired of this shit. Fill that list with obscure budget titles that have nothing to do with shooting or open worlding and I'd say...Maybe? "A perfect example of an individual who just plain hates all video games.
Infamous was an awesome game and is only looking to be better with the sequel.
Uncharted may be a shooter, but it has so many other elements that to pass it off as a simple shooter would be pretty dumb.
Either way I'm looking forward to a few of those games on that list.
All sequels. Nothing interesting about that and Uncharted 3 is the only one I'm vaguely excited about. Infamous 3 is one I'll play but not particularly bothered if it gets pushed. Killzone and Resistance are interchangeable and generic FPS.
The games I'm most excited about are not PS3 exclusives.
Let's just say a good year for gaming in general. If you can't find something this coming year to enjoy then you're not much of a gamer.
" every year is year of the ps3. "This.
It's an impressive line up, but we go through the same song and dance every year.
Sony have a bunch of announced games coming out.. A good chunk of them get delayed into next year, everyone's disappointed.. But by Christmas everyone will be claiming "2012, year of the PS3!".
Also, I'd expect Microsoft to have a few surprises (we basically know that a remake of the original Halo is coming) and Nintendo have the launch of the 3DS, no doubt with some really crazy games.
It'll never be the year of the PS3. Have you seen the sales numbers from Nov? The toliets at Sony will be working over time.
A $200 PS3 is needed ASAP for any hope.
Do people really love Resistance as a franchise ? No offense but the series hasn't exactly wowed me. Don't get me wrong I think they are solid games but I would rather Insomniac make a new Ratchet and Clank game without a 4-player co-op gimmick (which I believe might come out this year) or an entirely new game.
As an owner of both a PS3 and 360 I love it when PS3 has a shitload of exclusive titles because most multi-platform games I buy for the 360. Not bad for what is the last year of gaming before the apocalypse. I just wish these games would come out earlier next year so I have more time to play them before 2012.
That said i am looking forward to those exclusives, they are my reason for owning a PS3 over the Xbox, especially LBP, Resistance and Uncharted
Do you mean will it have the best games in 2011? Yeah, I think so.
Are you asking if it will outsell the other consoles? Nah, probably not.
You shouldn't say 'Year of the X' though. It makes it look like you think the other platforms won't be relevant.
You forgot Team ICO Collection, and honestly, Mass Effect 2: 'Best Edition Besides The PC One' too.

Xbox doesn't seem to be fighting hard for the exclusivesThat's because it's where the Live subscription money goes. Sony's game section is on a limited budget with investors and heads that don't believe in putting all their financial eggs in a basket and going wild, like MS have the freedom to do.
You forgot the SOTC and ICO bundle thing. I want that and Uncharted 3. If Infamous 2 does come out next year I'll pick it up. Xbox has Gears 3 though which will be awesome and probably sell as many copies as those 3 games I just listed combined.
"Fill that list with obscure budget titles"Oh, you're one of them.
OT: Lots of good games coming up, but I don't agree with the thread title at all. It suggests that it won't necessarily be 360s year and belittles Sony's previous years. This year has been a great one to own a PS3.

" Lol 360 fanboys. Have fun playing Gears and...ummm... "The stupid thing is that Sony can still announce stuff at E3. I am so broke this time next year...
Yeah but if E3 history is any indication, most of Sony's big E3 2011 announcements will be for 2012 and beyond.The stupid thing is that Sony can still announce stuff at E3. I am so broke this time next year... "
That's fine with me tho. It's already abundantly clear to me that I'm not gonna have time to play everything 2011 is looking to offer.
LittleBigPlanet 2
Killzone 3
Motorstorm Apocalypse
Yakuza 4
Socom 4
inFamous 2
Resistance 3
Uncharted 3
New Ratchet
Last Guardian
Maybe FF Versus 13
Ico Collection
Twisted Metal
Agent
And new stuff like Portal/Mass Effect coming over.
And a bunch of Move shit like Sorcery, Heroes on the Move.
And a good year for multiplats
MVC3
Portal 2
Crysis 2
Dragon Age 2
Batman whatever
Dead Space 2
7 CoD games
Microsoft are lucky multiplats outsell the ps3 as much as they do
" Lol 360 fanboys. Have fun playing Gears and...ummm... "Why call people 'fanboys' like it's a bad thing, when you're obviously a fanboy yourself?
Serious question.
Why post irrelevant bullshit?" @Pessh said:

But whatever, I'll humour you, I'm pretty impartial, just talking to the people denying that Sony has a pretty good offering this year. It's fact and you not liking shooters or LBP doesn't make the PS3 shit. Got nothing to do with my personal preference.
