Just in case you missed this yesterday, Sony's Playstation.jp website has released the names of the first six confirmed in-house titles for PS3. According to Gamesindustry.biz:
"The six titles are Genji 2 (Action), Angel Rings (RPG), Monster Carnival (Action RPG), Everybody's Golf 5 (Sport), Gran Turismo Series (Racing) and The Eye of Judgement (genre TBA)."
Most of these had already been mentioned at the Tokyo Game Show in September, of course, but it's interesting to see that, despite rumours of a launch delay, Sony is pressing ahead with its piecemeal PR process.
It's also interesting to note that Everybody's Golf will very likely make it into yet another launch line-up. What is it about super-deformed cartoon golfing that makes it such an essential element of Sony's hardware plans? No surprises about Gran Turismo though.
As for the other titles, there's little-to-no information available, although I'm hoping that Monster Carnival turns out to be a slightly mis-translated videogame conversion of Monster's Ball, Marc Forster's grim tale of love, loss and redemption in a backward Southern town. Now that would be unexpected.
