A launch line-up of 29 games is planned for the PlayStation 3 release this November including Resident Evil 5, Vision Gran Turismo and Assassin's Creed, according to US online retailer Best Buy.
The 29 games are due to come out around the Sony console's 17 November launch date and would make for a fantastic line-up. The full list is as follows.
Army of Two (EA)
Assassin's Creed (Ubisoft)
Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (Ubisoft)
Call of Duty 3 (Activision)
Devil May Cry 4 (Capcom)
Fight Night: Round 3 (EA)
Final Fantasy versus XIII (Square Enix)
Full Auto 2: Battlelines (Sega)
Heavenly Sword (Sony)
Hot Shots Golf 5 (Sony)
Indiana Jones (LucasArts)
Killzone 2 (Sony)
Madden NFL 07 (EA)
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (Activision)
Medal of Honor: Airborne (EA)
Monster Kingdom (Sony)
Motorstorm (Sony)
Rainbow Six Vegas (Ubisoft)
Resident Evil 5 (Capcom)
Scarface: The World is Yours (Vivendi)
Sonic the Hedgehog (Sega)
Splinter Cell Double Agent (Ubisoft)
Stranglehold (Midway)
Tekken 6 (Sony)
Tony Hawk's Project 8 (Activision)
Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom (Sony)
Virtua Fighter 5 (Sega)
Vision Gran Turismo (Sony)
Warhawk (Sony)
Now before anyone gets carried away, there are some glaring errors in Best Buy's list such as a 2006 release for Resident Evil 5, Tekken 6, Stranglehold, Indiana Jones and Killzone 2, as well as some that might have later releases such as Army of Two. But what we can say is that the launch line-up is in there, somewhere. Probably
Ex Nintendo PR managers say the Switch 2 generation is likely to see the retirement of "several of the major developers at Nintendo who we have known for 40 something years"
Helldivers 2 CEO says industry layoffs have seen "very little accountability" from executives who "let go of one third of the company because you made stupid decisions"
