didn't sony release GoW2 on ps2 after the ps3 launched?

i expect the same of sony with a notable release or 2 post ps4 launch this holiday. not so sure about MS, they did a really clean cut over xbox but i think there was other reasons for that. if MS was smart they would support the 360 at least through this holiday, imo.


They are copying Sonys ten year plan. They aren't repeating their cut of the Xbox.

Microsoft better announce something at e3, because it's current lineup is pathetic.


Microsoft doesn't care and you would think people would learn from their three consecutive E3's. They are focusing on the new console and its painfully obvious by now.

Ohh well, it will be their downfall in the end

For most it would be, but I think the support for the next console will be fine. In America though they like when Microsoft ignores them as long as they put out a shooter. Look at Microsofts shareholders conferences, they walk around their shareholders instead of answering their questions straight.

Kinda sad, because microsoft started so well back in the early days off this gen, but then they had to chase nintendo's audience


When Aaron Greenberg left the serious Xbox titles left. Kinect is still definitely in the cards because Microsoft is planning to take over the living room in a major way. Games are only part of the plan.



The PS3 will get several MLB games after this year.

it remains to be seen what MS's console transition strategy is as nothing has been announced yet.  until they do, we don't know what MS will do.  all i'm certain of is the awkward position nvida put the origina xbox in won't be a problem this time.

what 360 first party games are releasing this year?

Mostly XBLA related.


Most XBLA games aren't first party. They are second and third party, just like Gears.

Who cares? I know the thread title says specifically 1st party, but the overall gist of it is this might be the last year Sony/MS focus on their consoles. Even if its a 2nd or 3rd party title, as long as MS is securing it and/or publishing it, they're still focusing on the 360 with that release.

i see MS and Sony supporting XBLA and PSN with games for the next two years or so. lesser budgets, less risk and bigger install base

XBLA and SEN will get implemented seemlessly into next generation. So titles should be compatible like PSP to psVita

You can't "copy" length in the market, unless Sony patented it....then I guess Sony will sue MS for patent infringement.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I too think this will be the last year for 1st party.


PSP late 2013 / early 14
360 mid to late 2015
PS3 late 2015 / early 2016



Doubt PSP would get discontinued that early, at leat not in Japan.

You can copy strategies though. Sony's plan for the PS3 is 10-years. This isn't "normal" or "standard" for a console life cycle. This is a Sony thing.
