It annoys me how with the current economic climate, that Sony and Microsoft can't ever show when or what games are dropping each week. I don't know about you but I like to plan out my spending each month so I know what I can afford. Knowing what games or DLC is coming out when helps!!

The playstation blog tends to list an exclusive the day before release (wed. usually PSN updates on thurs.), with little to no information with it. This is compounded by the fact that sony does not force developer to put a demo with every game. That makes me not purchase many games for it. With the industry going more and more towards digital distrbution, I need more information on every purchase. Demos NEED to be put out with every game.

Don't get me wrong, mircrosoft is far from perfect. they announce titles sun. or mon. of that week. Though there are demos with every arcade release. and the fact that they use space bucks (sorry. "microsoft points" ) is kind of arbitrary( 800 pts = $10.00 ). At least sony uses dollar amounts, and the wii's point system just removes the decimal point ( $10.00=1000 pts.) [not that the money or points is terribly relevent I felt it needed mentioning]

I almost never use the wii so I can't say to much about it, but typically the same week by week problem exist there as well.

I don't get why they can't go at least month by month, even the fall & spring promotions they have been doing just give a list of future games but still no release dates!!

Maybe it sounds like I'm blowing this out of proportion, but I needed to get it off my chest. and to see if i'm alone with this problem or not. So what say you? What have I missed? Any thoughts
