excuse them for not pushing Puppeteer, GT6, tLoU, Sly Thieves in Time, GoW Ascension, and Beyond 2 Souls onto PS4 and instead supporting the PS3 to the very end and beyond


First of all they are pushing TLOU on PS4 and second of all none of those games sold very well. Which was the OPs point. GT6 might have sold decent tohough...

well they were very quality titles and I thoroughly enjoyed them all.  Everyone knows Sony's flaw is marketing at this point or they're in denial.  Honestly did you see a single ad for Sly?  A franchise that hasn't had a release in 7 years needs SOMETHING to let people know a new one is coming.  Same with Puppeteer.  Beyond did over 1m with PS4 release impending and GT6 has done reasonably well being released AFTER PS4.  Also GoW has done fairly well being overshadowed by next gen.  Let's not kid ourselves if one or two or even all of those were moved to next gen and released in 2014 they would have sold much more than they did on the then overshadowed PS3.  Throw in a couple commercials for the smaller titles (seriously I sold 5 Sly copies myself just by bringing it up that a new game was releasing to some old fans who didn't know) and they'd have all hit a million (GoW, GT, and Beyond all did well over that so there goes your not solid sales).  Hell KNACK hit a million without the Japanese help and look how horrible that was.  Imagine a stellar game like Puppeteer on next gen.

Yeah, well - bought my PS4 in January and to be honest, it's an Investment for the days to come - Greatness still Awaits and will wait til 15 i guess. At the Moment the only two games i've played so far on my shiny and new Console are Knack coz i only Managed to buy the knack Launch bundle and InFamous Second Son, which is a good game, not Fun like Crackdown, but a solid exclusive!
I think my Xbox One which I bought in March offers more content for the average Gamer at the Moment but MS fixed so many Things which weren't broken with Xbox that now i am more than happy to say i enjoy playing Games on Xbox One which i was afraid of the last Year.
Hard Times for Xbox Fanboys to be Honest nowadays but PS4 is far, far from brilliant, which at this Point of Time is easily enough to outperform the Xbox Brand and even WiiU is struggling.
Today i only could download two Apps on PSN (IGN and Vidzone), use the PS Store, Play online and Upload some Share Button stuff. This is not much in Comparison with my 360 and far from Next Gen!
but what I really like is the Focus on Games - so simple as it is!
I must say i am dissapointed with Next Gen so far!!



Also, talk about a ridiculous, hyperbolic thread title...



Sony number 5 sell almost as much as ms number 1... Also the xbox one only have 2 exclussive game.

That would have made me buy a PS4 at launch. Also don't forget R&C: Into the Nexus (I know that it's not 1st party, but it's 2nd party, and that's got to count.)

Yeah fun game and actually would've made a great Plus game near the launch.

The more that I think of it the better this sounds. Can't speak for GoW, GT6 and Puppeteer, but if Sly Thieves in Time, and R&C into the nexus had been PS4 launch exclusives, than the PS4's library would have been stronger, and those two games would have gotten the sales they deserve (they are far more worthy of 1m+ numbers than Knack is)

..true story.

But, you played Braid! :(

launched exclusively last on ps3.

BAM.

I laughed so hard at this. 10 points.



4 ≈ One

they usually brag about the very high quality of the 1st party releases,not about sales of games....



Massive flop, should be discontinued tomorrow.
