While 2006 shows a lot of
promise for console video games, Guardian Unlimited notes that a majority of
this year's anticipated games are sequels. Furthermore, many of the must have titles are slated for current generation
consoles. From the article: "The most anticipated titles of this year are franchise old-timers - Final Fantasy XII on PS2; Legend of Zelda Twilight
Princess on GameCube; Metal Gear Solid 4 and Vision Gran Turismo on PS3; and Tomb Raider Legend on
practically everything. Publishers are still relying on games that have been around for more than a decade.
Yawn."Is this normal during the first year of next-gen consoles, or are publishers in the dumps? Maybe the demanding customer is.
