Well, sure. I thought it was made fairly clear at the start of the press conference that they would only be dealing with games being released this year. Obviously they weren't going to announce any surprise games being released this holiday season.

The only two big titles left that Microsoft could really capture would be Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy XIII. MGS4 is still a very real possibility, especially with all the rumors going around. I think FXIII will be released late 2008 at the absolute earliest, so it's most likely too soon for an announcement on that as well.
