| Below is a list of the PS3 Games that will be available in North America between 17th Nov and 25th Dec 2006. This information was correct as of Playstation's North American website at about 5 minutes before the time I posted this - so dont blame me if its wrong I am interested in finding out what are your most wanted in that list - what do you as a gamer wish you could play tonight? Just copy the title you are interested in from the list and put it in a new post below - feel free to add a reason if you wish Resistance: Fall of Man Genji: Days of the Blade Call of Duty 3 NBA’07 Fight Night Round 3 Full Auto 2: Battlelines Madden NFL 07 Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire Need for Speed Carbon Ridge Racer 7 Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 Tony Hawk’s Project 8 Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas Untold Legands Dark Kingdom Marvel: Ultimate Alliance The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion F.E.A.R. NBA 2K7 NHL 2K7 Sonic the Hedgehog |

| It's safe to say from wandering around the web the hottest launch title is Resistance: Fall Of Man. Not necessarily mine (I tend to suck at FPS games). For me two of the hotter titles are Ridge Racer 7 and Full Auto 2. Ridge Racer was my game of choice to christen my original PlayStation back in '95. I tried a demo of the original Full Auto and liked it, although i didn't buy the full game. Reportedly improvements have been made for the sequel so I'll be checking this one out when it does arrive. |

| Cheers for heads up, Rory. The games I wanna play right this second are: Final Fantasy XIII Gran Turismo HD Gran Turismo 5 (the TRUE next generation GT as opposed to a High-Def version of GT4) Grand Theft Auto 4 (it's GTA, what more can I say? Need for Speed Carbon (not completely sure about this one, as the PS2 version is far too short. Hope PS3 version is bigger and better) Tony Hawk’s Project 8 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Sonic the Hedgehog WWE Smackdown! vs RAW 2007 (I know it's not out for PS3, even though it was meant to be, so that will kinda change to 2008 instead) Probably other, but can't think of them right this second. I hope EA make a Command and Conquer for the PS3, though. I really liked C&C Red Alert and Retaliation on PS1. Still wish they'd make a C&C for PS2 |

| I'm going to have to disagree with you there, Lyn. The game that looks brilliant to me, is that White Knight game. Have you seen any movies for it? I've got a movie I downloaded from Gamespot; it shows the game go from normal gameplay, into cut scene, and then into a boss battle. Seemless integration; it's what all us RPG lovers have wanted since Final Fantasy VII was realesed. Let's hope FFXIII does it that good; hopefully better. |

![]() Been spending a bit of time with Ridge Racer 7 this afternoon- so far I have to say this one's a keeper! There's a lot of detail going on here in the cars and the various racetracks and the cars i have so far (3 of them) control very easily although one was a bit erratic when drifting around corners. You'l enjoy this one Rory! |

| mmm Ridgeee Raaacer. 5 long months to the release and about another 5 to i can afford a controller never mind the PS3 - but I have already stated that my first title will be RR7. Its like a tradition with Namco, Sony and me! Took another look at the Resistance: Fall of Man download last night and I have to say that it looks and sounds astonishing |

As for RR7, I'm not sure. It DOES look brilliant, but, going by recent Ridge Racers, I'm not sure if I'll get it. I might do, might not. I'll def be getting GT5. Might get GTHD, but it's just a suped up version of GT4, so not sure about that one ![]() ps I KNOW GT5 isn't a launch title, Lyn, but I'll still get it when it's eventually out. Besides, the length of time it's taking for us poor forgotten Europeans to get our console, maybe it'll be ready by then. Doubtful, but here's hoping |

It really bugs me that us Euro's get forgotten. It's not like we have a particularly small game market when compared to the other major territories. I just DONT get why we always end up being left behind... |

| Kernmist, its easy to work out why. Sony and Nintendo own Japan - hell more second hand gba's are sold weekly in Japan than xbox and xbox 360! US peeps would have us believe that they are the biggest market for games consoles and yes it is true - but only if you add Canada and Mexico into the figures. They say that Europe is so hard to deliver to with so many different languages etc...but then they counter argue that will blu-ray and say that it holds so much info that all language versions could be released on the same day globally - indeed all could be stored on the same disk! But in a nut shell the real reason is that we will just take what ever scraps they throw our way. Did you know that per capita Ireland is Sonys biggest market after Japan? We love our technology - 2nd highest per capita ownership of mobile phones after Finland.... Now, the real questions you should be asking is, why Sony would try to sell stuff in the USA and why the PS3 seems to be cheaper there? Practically no technology is cheap there - except the mobile phone networks.... I had never heard of such a thing as a "dropped call" until I spend some time in the US, and only about 60% of sent SMS are actually recieved.... Now if such a thing was to happen here there would be hell to pay! |

We have the biggest share of the gaming market (overall) and they ignore us like we're on another planet or something. |

Texting has only just really started taking off in the states, however as they've had PTT calls for years. It's much easier to just press one button and send a voice message almost CB style to your target phope than to type a text message out. However, the advent of MMS and such like is starting to have an effect in the US market. Interesting fact: About two years ago Nokia produced a whole line of phones targetted at the American market with big pullout ariels and clam shell designs. The clamshells were specifically made to 'clap' when snapped shut because the US market likes the noise, and the ariel was just a placebo piece of plastic that did nothing. Apparently their studies told them that the US market likes phones where they hang up by 'snapping the phone shut' and one of the first things American users try to do when answering their phone in awkward circumstances is pull the arial out with their teeth. Weird facts, but Nokia designed 3 or 4 phones around them so there must be something in it |
