"Not many gamers may know of the Naruto anime series, nor are they likely to care, but they should"
Clearly, console gamers are more aware of Naruto than this author knows. Naruto is the biggest Anime series at the moment (think Pokemon or Power Rangers level fame).
Everyone under 15 knows who Naruto is.
You have to go over to gamespot and have a look at the gameplay videos. Very unique.
Ratchet & Clank Future - maybe platformer of year or adventure of year, will probably loose to Mario Galaxy in these classes. Not in the running for GotY 2007.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - will end up mediocre, no awards. My guess? 7.0 / 10 - 7.5 / 10 on Metacritic.
Warhawk will win Nothing.
Assassin's Creed - GotY 2007 Candidate, if not, GotY Adventure
eye of judgement will win some kinda of award - maybe, very unique title. ...
Ratchet & Clank has a metacritic score of 9.0 - The highest rated exclusive PS3 game.
Resistence 8.6
Warhawk 8.4
Motorstorm 8.2
Those are the top 4 exclusive games on PS3.
I'm willing to bet (metaphorically) that Mass Effect will join the following at 9.0 or above:
2 BioShock 2007 96
3 Gears of War 2006 94
5 Halo 3 2007 94
8 Virtua Fighter 5 2007 90
9 Forza Motorsport 2 2007 90
...
Naughty Dog is owned by Sony. This isnt News, its public relations and marketing.

I'm going to be buying this title as a gift for both nephew/niece households.
I loved the demo, sharp graphics, great gameplay. The racing has super re-play value.
I forsee a must-own for anyone looking for pick-up fun gameplay.

@dachiefsman.
The designer and creator of Final Fantasy is no longer involved in the games.
Hironobu Sakaguchi is the creator of FF. He has left and is now making exclusive games for Xbox 360 with his own studio Mistwalker.
Blue Dragon recieved a 37/40 from Famitsu, and his next title Lost Odyssey is due in Japan in Decmeber.
Two more games are in the works, Cry-On (no details yet) and an untitled rumoured MMO.
If you...
Mario Galaxy, Lost Odyssey, Mass Effect, BioShock or Halo 3. I think the last two will pickup most GotY.
The First one may get many "Platform GotY". ME GotY Adventure and Lost Odyssey GotY RPG.
You. Are. A. Liar. Not only is your SDF description of Xbox 360 ownership a Big. Fat. Lie. But if you say you didnt have problems with your PS2? Then you didnt fcuking own one.
This is going to be a great addition to the Xbox 360 casual games line-up.
I hope MS ships a few more games with the free controllers.
There are many established party games that could be used with those controllers. What I'd like to see is a great-big Trivia Game that allowed group tournaments.
Q) Someone already playing Mass Effect?
A) Yes, the luckiest gamer alive.
"How 'bout we take pause to consider why Sony wants to force Blu-ray as a standard so badly "
Because unlike Microsoft and Nintendo, Sony has a RIAA and MPAA division.
100% total reason for BR in PS3.
The sony kids have been spiking my stories too by "chatting" nonsense in the reporting system.
The reporting system has been comprimised by the rabid sony fans. N4G is clearly been broken by their 1-sided rhetoric.
Just a recommendation; buy the Xbox 360 add-on.
It works with your PC. When HD-DVD starts shipping as a data-format (Toshiba is including them next year..), you'll be able to move the drive.
Further, because you can move the drive, you'll be able to use Windows Media Center to stream the playback to any extender in the home. And, in this quarter, some Plasma/LCDs (HP of note) are going to start to include WMC in thier TVs.
Get the external add-on...
They hate it now because it is going to appear on Xbox 360. Before then, they probably didnt have any opinion at all.
@Meus -- you really are one of the lamest PS3 fanboys on this site.
"like saying I want God Of War so I'll just get an Xbox and want for it to be ported. "
No. It is not like that at all. MGS4 and FFXIII are not 1st party titles. They are Konami and Square Enix respectively.
Both firms already publish exclusives and multi-plat games on Xbox 360.
Square Enix has already delivered Final Fantasy on the Xbox

This story is old news, the 3RR heat issues are behind us. Waiting for a die-size change is a moot issue w/r/t 3RR.
The Xbox 360 heat issues have already been fixed, and we already were told. And we've been seeing the improved hardware for months now.
Motherboard Version 1.1. This Motherboard has fewer components, smaller components, new layout, and a new CPU/GPU mounting methodology.
Look at this: 
"All in all, let it go people and get a PS3."
Clearly you missed the part where I said I wasnt interested in MGS4 or any Sakaguchi-less FF.
And, I think we have to agree to disagree on this. We'll have to wait I 'spose.
