im implying that those games have adult themes and no other console has anything that can match Halo and gears feature for feature, whats sonys best FPS that can compete with halo? what about TPS? as of now MS has those two genres locked down

to the post about tlou, to little to late and tlou is solely a SP experience that focuses more on story and emotions, if someone wants to slay zombies in a apocalypse your not gonna get that with tlou but will with l4d and dead rising if someone want a TPS that focuses on shooting, cover, bosses and tight controls you aint gonna get that with tlou but will with gears

a believe Rol said it best Sony is the jack of all trades but master of none

Children like to play Halo and Gears too.

uncharted yes its even rated teen and have you played through all three? for me the story is something out of a Saturday moring cartoon

god of war thats mature but its hack and slash with puzzle and platforming can see EU audience perfering this more than Americans as its greek mythology, nothing is relatable to modern times something i believe Americans enjoy more ie modern warfare and the first 2 resident evil games that also did well in US

resistance and KZ cant compete with halo feature for feature i believe resistance is done and KZ storys arent compelling and again has alot of strong EU vibes nazi's?

Infamous ok thats better in terms of being able to relate with  character and enviroment but another teen rated game and again theres no strong point in any one gameplay aspect where it excels highly like halo and gears do

SOCOM lol besides the ps2s ones another dead series

X1 vs PS4 sales in the US shows us that Americans prefer the PS4.

guys dont get the wrong impression here im an american and a sony fan own all 3 of there consoles supported them on this site for yrs now but MSs recent SW has appealed to me more the last 2 gens

i like 3rd person shooters in particular and since around the 6th gen MS is where its at in terms of FPS and TPS

theres quite a few MS console exclusives experience that cant be had on PS HW

Halo
gears
alan wake
quantum break
L4D
Dead rising

i believe these games interest alot of PS fans from the PS1 era that enjoyed PS exclusives at that time like mgs, resident evil, and silent hill, now that thoses types of games either went multi or have fallen off drasticly from there first entries you have to go to the MS console to get your fix

I know this. I am saying Microsoft is even giving Europeans reason to choose XBox over Sony. Sony might be the official sponsor of the Champions league, but Microsoft has the EA DLC for Europe on Fifa and Madden in America. They've got the dude bros in both continents covered.

What is the "cool" system in the US? Xbox. That's why it's winning. The Genesis was considered "cool", and it won the US. When PS1 and PS2 were winning here, guess what? It was considered the "coolest". It's been that way since either of us were born. Xbox will stay popular until something comes along that is deemed "cooler" and it'll crash and burn.

Why do most foreign gamers hate Xbox?
That's the question you should be asking. Why do they relate MS/Xbox with American patriotism when the company and brand are transnational?
I believe most of Xbox 1st party is European; Rare,Lift London, Lionhead, Press Play etc...
Japanese don't buy a single Xbox but Americans are nationalist ones.

cos ps3 costed 600$

Well, why do Europeans buy PS4? Different consoles attract different markets, and X1 is in no way a lesser product than PS4, so it basically comes down to personal taste.
