Gamestop$59.99 could be the magic number for PlayStation 3 as an alleged Gamestop internal memo began surfacing and circulating around the internet. Accordingly, the leaked announcement lists 36 PlayStation 3 titles, including prices, that are being scheduled for release between launch date November 17 and May 1 next year.


Curiously, the list suggests that a few of the titles will be available before the Sony's next-gen console itself hits store shelves. The PlayStation launch line-up could very well include the titles listed below. Those in bold are PS3 exclusives.

# More than lilkely Not fakeGuest 2006-08-29 10:03
I worked for GameStop for many years and I am very familiar with the internal emails which are called B-mail. (stands 4 Babbages email) The sku's are real, all sku's are 6 digits long and the 1st 2 numbers indicate the system. Example PS2-28, PS1-26, GameCube-22 Xbox-23 and so on. As for the release dates it is very common for GameStop to put in a "ruff" release date which often can change multiple times. So just because it says it is coming out on so and so does not mean that it is. Also, some games do come out b4 the launch date of new systems. It happens all of the time.

# PS3 games before PS3 launchGuest 2006-08-29 10:13
Doesn't seem too odd to me. I clearly recall that (in the UK) Smuggler's Run for the PS2 was available to buy about 2 weeks before the PS2 console launched.

The picture doesn't really looked photoshoped to me, and its coming from gamespot too, gamespot is unlikely to post fake news,



By the way, LMAO, 360 didn't have 40 games at launch,(probabl y doesn't even have 40 right now) I seem to recall I had like 12 or something.

Lair for launch? Assassin's Creed in March? Games at $59.99? This better be true.

# Yeah 360 blew their Launch title numbers by having a HUGE launch windowTheProfessor 2006-08-29 12:53
If the game came out within 2 months of the console's launch they called it a "launch title". When it was out the door however they had few titles.



Here the official 15 titles available in the launch window:



* Amped 3 (2K Sports)

* Call of Duty 2 (Activision)

* Condemned: Criminal Origins (SEGA)

* FIFA 06: Road to FIFA World Cup (Electronic Arts)

* GUN (Activision)

* Kameo: Elements of Power (Microsoft Game Studios)

* Perfect Dark Zero (Microsoft Game Studios)

* Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie(Ubisoft)

* Madden NFL 06 (Electronic Arts)

* NBA Live 06 (Electronic Arts)

* Need for Speed: Most Wanted (Electronic Arts)

* Project Gotham Racing 3 (Microsoft Game Studios)

* Quake 4 (Activision, id software and Raven Software Corp.)

* Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 06(Electronic Arts)

* Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland (Activision)

Some might still not believe it, but this list is NOT fake. I work at gamestop right now in California, and any customer that walks in can see this list. It is a page coupled with the release list for all systems, and we show it to customers on a regular basis.



Whether these dates and prices are 100% accurate is unknown, however, this is as official as its gonna get for now.



If you still dont believe it, walk into Gamestop and ask to see the release date sheets for systems.

# BTW Resistance and Warhawk alone will put the 360 launch list to shameTheProfessor 2006-08-29 12:55
Just my opinion. Maybe I'm just jaded cause I had to wait so long to play the games I wanted when I got my 360.

# FAKE!Guest 2006-08-29 13:22
Why are ALL the games teh same price, both First party and third party....you know why? Becuz it is just a price put on there, becuase they do not know the official price....basically meaning that the prices are FAKE. The release dates however could be true...no doubt.



And look at the dates people...not all of those titles are launch titles, use your brain..sheesh.



Theres 19 release titles for the PS3....the dates are on there...
