surely its a bit silly to release big name titles at the same time? I mean, no matter whether you were the "winner" in terms of sales, you'd still take a hit from all of the people who decided on one of the other games. Few people want to buy 3 games at one time... there'd be no time to play them (and your enjoyment would of each would be rushed and fragmented), and it'd be dang expensive!

-PSX- Don't be discouraged from buying from amazon: All online and the majority of offline retailers do the same thing. If there is an offical release date, the game-news sites will cover it (yes, like IGN, though i have a certain aversion to faceless coorporations), but they have to keep a place holder of some kind, just like they have a MGS3 logo instead of the actual box-art.
