Forums - Sony Discussion - (Sony and Nintendo First Party Games last two years) Has Sony's First Party been disappointing for the past two years?

With Sony's First Party being heavily bragged about this generation especially in the mid years (2009-2011)  it appears that Sony has struggled in late years with quality games.  On the other side they have a wide variaty with quantity.  Just wanted to hear other's thoughts.  Good, bad, or decent?

personally i played starhawk, twisted metal, GoW:A, PS all stars and the last of us so far, havent been disappointed by any one of them. and there are games on that list that i still want to play. so i would say no for this year. but 2012 was their weakest year in a long while. 2013 has been amazing. 2014 will be amazing too



Insomniac isn't a first party developer.

The flops are knack and rachet and clank full frontal assault so no sony's first party hasn't being disappointing and RC isn't even a first party game. What exactly was the point of this thread Jay ?

First party game.  Owned by Sony in other words. other wise i wouldnt have put Journey either.




       

Jaded reviewers or videogames in general are just getting shittier.

Underlined all the games I've played and loved. So I'd say no.

Also you listed gravity rush twice.



Beyond: Two Souls? Unfinished Swan? You're including everything Sony published as "first party"?

Also, handheld games and downloadable titles often get punished for being handheld games and downloadable titles.
