Sony has unveiled the line-up for the PlayStation 3's North American "launch window", which includes the console's November 17 release date and the immediate weeks thereafter.
Announced yesterday at SCEA's gamers day event, the 21 launch game list includes Insomniac's flagship shooter, Resistance: Fall of Man, Sony's Genji: Days of the Blade and third-party offerings Call of Duty 3, Ridge Racer 7 and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
