Reinforcements For PlayStation 3 Are On Their Way

PlayStation 3 is not doing so great in terms of sales compared to its rivals, Nintendo Wii and Xbox 360. In fact, according to the latest statistic released this week by NPD Group, for PlayStation 3, last month was a disaster.

For the first time since its launch in November last year, Sony have sold under 100.000 units of its new gaming consoles. The reason behind this poor performance may be the lack of games that are capable to take full advantage of PS3's advanced technological capabilities.

But don't rush to pitty Sony, as the company announced an extensive software line up for its PlayStation platforms for the second half of 2007 and early 2008.

SCEA is preparing to unveil more than 30 games for PlayStation 3, along with a full library of games and services for PSP and PS2.

"As you would expect from the market leader, we are seeing a huge influx of games coming to all our PlayStation platforms in the remainder of our fiscal year," said Jack Tretton, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sony Computer Entertainment America. "More than half of the games we showed during our media event are available only on our systems.

This fiscal, from SCEA alone, users can expect more than 15 exclusive games and services for PS3, and another nine for PSP.This doesn't even take into account the wide variety of titles and game packs we have coming through the PLAYSTATION Network. Given this raft of titles, I think we are very well positioned to meet the needs and wants of every PlayStation user as they build out their game libraries in the coming months."

Below you have the full list of games promised by SCEA for PS3.

Ratchet & ClankFuture: Tools of Destruction, SCEA, Uncharted: Drakes Fortune, SCEA , Heavenly Sword, SCEA, SingStar, SCEA, Â SOCOM: Confrontation, SCEA, LAIR, SCEA, Folklore, SCEA, NBA ‘08, SCEA, MLB 07 The Show, SCEA, THE EYE OF JUDGMENT, SCEA, Home, SCEA, LittleBigPlanet, SCEA, Elder Scrolls4: Oblivion, Bethesda Softworks, The BIGS, 2K Sports, Hellboy, Konami, Devil May CryIV, Capcom, Stranglehold, Midway, Spider-Man 3, Activision, Inc., Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Tecmo, TimeShift, Sierra Entertainment, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas, Ubisoft Entertainment, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Ubisoft Entertainment, Surf’s Up, Ubisoft Entertainment, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Electronic Arts, Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End, Disney Interactive, SEGA Rally Revo, SEGA, Dynasty Warriors:GUNDAM, NAMCO BANDAI Games, Conan, THQ, Ratatouille, THQ, The Darkness, 2KGames, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, 2KGames
