Playstations 3 Press Release - 2008 and Early 2009 lineup

Sony just issued a press release detailing the remaining confirmed PS3 and PSP releases for 2008 and early 2009. These are a mix of retail and PSN titles and a way to whet everyone's appetites and plan both your time and money budgets accordingly. Bear in mind this is in addition to all the other confirmed releases we know about.

I know June, Fall of this year, and February are going to be rough months around this household. Bills won't get paid, the kids and wife will be ignored, but I will be a happy gamer.
