Time for another Top 10 list from Screwattack. Except this time technically it’s just a top 6 of exclusives titles. Although this top list might grow with games like Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune and Haze.

It’s almost one year after the (November 17th, 2006) release of the PlayStation 3, so let’s have a look at what defines a console — it’s exclusive titles.

The full PS3 top 6 list is as follows:
6. Ridge Racer 7
5. MotorStorm
4. Heavenly Sword
3. Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
1. Warhawk

Sony is said to start pre-Alpha testing Resistance 2, the sequel to the PS3’s FPS launch title Resistance: Fall of Man, in January 2008.

Recent murmurings have suggested the sequel is being tentatively prepared for release in November 2008. Rumors from a CVG source indicate the game will relocate the alien-bashing action to cities like San Francisco and Chicago in the United States of America. The first game’s star Sergeant Nathan Hale will allegedly return, but not necessarily in the leading role. Multiplayer matches are said to feature vehicles now. It even went as far as to say that the sequel will feature a cliff-hanger ending paving the way for Resistance 3.
