Here's the most current list of launch titles according to the info I've gotten regarding each title. The Officially Confirmed titles have been confirmed by the actual devs or publishers of the games themselves while the Confirmed by Third Party titles have been confirmed by some media source with no actual confirmation by the developers themselves to confirm it. Rumored titles are titles coming out in the fall around the launch with no news regarding launch status either way. Delayed titles are games that were launch titles, but have been officially delayed past the launch window.

Also, don't bothered criticizing the posts of the first dozen people below as they're criticizing the initial eight game list that hasn't been confirmed at all since the first post.

Newest additions in bold.

This looks like a good list just from the first impression. What are your thoughts of this initial speculative launch and what other games do you hope make it out for the fall launch?

with that launch, maybe my reserved one, will go to ebay then.......

Not a single game there that I'm even mildly interested in. VIVA LA REVOLUTION!

The only one of those games I have any interest in is Lair, but it's no system seller.

Resistance looks cool, too bad there's no Twisted Metal in sight.

Decent games, not that the PS3 actually NEEDS good launch titles to sell like mad.

I am interested to see how next-gen Sonic turns out though.

The initial lineup looks weak. I'm surprised that there are no sports titles in that mix. Mainly Madden. I am also interested how Sonic looks on the PS3 as well as Tekken.

This isn't a final list by far, so expect further announcements at E3 and the months leading up to the launch. I just added a juicy rumored title to the list that there's some interesting info about it's release.

I'm hoping that the A list titles are worth it. I wonder how many worthwile RPG's there will be.

Right, because could you imagine Sony letting their system launch without a bigger first-party title attached? One that would really show-off the online play to counter the XBOX 360? I would imagine we'll see Killzone or something else first party launch alongside the system (the new Ratchet and Clank?). Of course, neither of those titles are exactly system-sellers, but they are at least some big names from the first-party.

Nothing on that list interests me except possibly Rainbow Six: Vegas, and definitely Stranglehold, neither of which require me to buy a PS3 to play. I'm curious to see the Revs launch line up other than Red Storm or whatever that game is called.

More of the enhanced same games again.

Sony does have three games up there, though nothing of their old IP. Maybe Warhawk will make it?

l would like to see SOCOM as a launch title.

I'm with ya dude, though Lair could be cool.

That's not going to happen

you can make two games for two diff systems.

...SHOCKER...

Need Metal Gear Solid 4 and Devil May Cry 4.

Tekken 6 and Ridge Racer 7? Good God I hope that's not indicative of where most third parties are headed with next-gen development. The only thing to be added to either of those franchises at this point is online play. Try something new, Namco.
