UK MD claims PS3 has 'never been in a stronger situation'.
Sony Computer Entertainment has a Christmas line-up "to be proud of", UK managing director Ray Maguire has claimed.
Speaking to VidoeGamer.com at the Games 3.0 conference in London earlier this week, Maguire said that "for the first time I can sit back and think, 'yeah we've got five super strong titles'.
Sony's headline Christmas 2008 titles include Insomniac's Resistance 2, Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet and Evolution's MotorStorm: Pacific Rift.
When asked how he thought the PS3's Christmas software line-up compares to the Xbox 360's, Maguire replied: "I think we've never been in a stronger situation. This is the first year for me that I can sit back and think, 'yeah we've got five super strong titles'. Some of them ground breaking by creating almost a new genre and the others starting to really use the strength of the Cell chip and the graphics. When I look at LittleBigPlanet, when I look at Resistance, when I look at MotorStorm, and then I look at things like Abba on SingStar, before we even get into Killzone next year, I think we've got a line-up really to be proud of."
Microsoft's headline Christmas Xbox 360 exclusive titles include Epic's Gears of War 2, Rare's Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Lionhead's Fable 2, iNiS' Lips and Krome Studios' Scene It? Box Office Smash.

Level-5 are currently working on White Knight Chronicles (aka Shirokishi Monogatari), it's expected to be out in Japan around the end of December 2008 and hopefully everywhere else by March 2009. Exclusive to PS3.
As a 360 owner and a Level-5 fan (they did Dark Cloud, Dark Chronicles, Dragon Quest VIII and Rogue Galaxy on the PS2 and the highly acclaimed Professor Leyton's Curious Village on the DS) I'm deeply envious because if Level-5 are anything close to their usual RPG standards then you're in for a real treat.

Not a bad Christmas line up. Plus all the shared titles that the 360 is getting as well.
In fact, with the 360 and the PS3 together, it'll be a wonderful Christmas.
