The coming of Sony's PlayStation 3 is one of the most anticipated gaming events in years. With its Blu-ray drive, Cell processor, and massive physical size, the PS3 could be the biggest, fastest console ever. Here are some of the top games coming out soon after the PS3 launches on November 17.

In one of the more memorable moments of E3 2006, Genji was introduced as an action game "based on Japanese history" that also features "giant enemy crabs" upon which you can inflict massive damage. OK, maybe Sony's grasp of history is questionable, but the game still looks pretty cool.
The Gundam franchise isn't quite as popular here as it is in Japan, but we can never say no to a game with giant fighting robots.

The PS3 version of this arcade-style WWII flight sim will use the system's SixAxis controller to fly. Rocking and twisting the controller can control pitch, yaw, and whatever the third one is. What's a yaw, anyway?
