Are Publishers Giving Us Too Many Games In Q4?

AusGamers has produced a mammoth feature outlining 20 games to look forward to in the fourth quarter of 2008, but they also address whether publishers make it difficult for the average gamer to be able to not only choose a great game, but be able to afford multiple games given that the holiday period usually offers far more choice and quality than the rest of the year.

From the feature:
"Like last year, it seems the fourth quarter of 2008 (and a little from Q3 as well), is where the money games are at, and rather than having our lengthy manifest of previews strewn about news archives and hidden among game titles, we've compiled a seminal holiday guide to what's hitting store-shelves by the end of this year (and conversely addressing whether or not it's fair on consumers to have to face so much all at once as opposed to a much more palatable yearly release spread)."
