yeah, this has been known since Sony released the PS3 games-in-the-works list

any or all can be new. for what it's worth, here are their known games for each genre:

RPG: Xenosaga series, Arc The Lad series, Tales series.

Shooting Time Crises, Point Blank (yeah, I know ;p)

Sports MotoGP, Street Racing Syndicate, Smash Court Tennis Pro Tournament.

Fighting Tekken, Soul Calibur

of course, there are things like Urban Reign (brawler/fighter), Nightmare of Druaga (RPG) and Vampire Night (shooter) but the onse mentioned are more established names.

There's a new Times Crisis coin-up. Something about a dual screen. Can't remember where I read that, but that could suggest a new Tme Crisis game for the PlayStation 3.

Thanks for providing a list of known Namco games.

Well, arcade Time Crisis machines have 2 screens:

Time Crisis 4 at Magic Box (http://www.the-magicbox.com/0601/game060123a4.shtml)

Even though I don't expect PS3's two HDMI ports to be used frequently, I guess it could make these dual-screen arcade games possible at home. Not something that would appeal to casual gamers, but hardcore gamers would certainly appreciate it, as there are many of these arcade game machines. What about a Sega compilation?

even if they won't use these dual arcade ideas, dual output sure beats system link any day. that would appeal to even a wider audience.

Z> Arc The Lad series is not from Namco but Sony!

I bet that sports title is "Love Football" or whatever its called. Its another soccer title. I know it is being released on the 360 so its likely this could be the game.

Z> Arc The Lad series is not from Namco but Sony!
Arc The Lad games are developed by Cattle Call

the thing is, Twilight of the Spirits was published by Sony
while End of Darkness was published by Namco ;)

PS. since it jad different publishers, I don't know who will pick up the next installment. but I thought Namco had a shot again so put in there. :)
