So at work (Gamestop) The Last of Us Remastered seems to be the it game flying off the shelves at the moment. Many of these customers never owned a PS3, opting to skip over it for one of its competitors. They never had access to games like TLOU, Uncharted, LBP, Infamous, etc. Before owning a PS device these customers had a very particular attitude towards PS exclusives. I had a few conversations with them to discuss this.

Many stated they just assumed they couldn't be that good as they weren't on 360 (they often have no concept of 1st/3rd party game development). They would hear their PS3 owning friends(all one of them) cheering about Uncharted and TLOU but their impression was "Meh" or "But is it Halo/COD good?". They really didn't dabble in story based games and were completely un accustomed to strong ones outside of their realm. So, for whatever reasons they made the leap to PS4 this generation and many of their tunes have completely changed. So many who played TLOU for the first time now on PS4 come back and are like "How did I skip over this game?!" Its always good to see well deserved games get praised. There hasty opinion of PS exclusives, that they were just hyped ammo of fanboys, has dissipated.  Now they see what long time PS players have always known about Naughty Dog and many other Sony exclusives.

So my question is, as someone who did not own a PS3 and or did not play Uncharted1-3/TLOU/etc but has now been introduced to them..... how do you feel about them?

I doubt those people are really on here, your talking about the most simple average consumer kinda Walmart people. Peeps on a gaming site like this know those games well. Only fanboyism more then anything else stopped them from playing them.

Have come from ps3 to Ps4 and I agree with pôster above. People here always knew about the quality of sony 1st parties but haven't assumed before and won't now.

Preaching to the choir bro....

The people here know about sony exclusives, have probably watched and read the reviews, looked at screenshots... and those not in the sony camp will still not be in the sony camp. they will find a reason to hate the game even if they have never played it.

Its not even about being fanboys, you just have to understand that the people you see on gaming forums are definitely already fans of one or two platforms. Rarely would you ever see someone come to a gaming forum and sincerely ask for platform purchase advice.

This is not saying that fans of a platform can't jump ship though, that happens too.

Right question wrong audience. Would be interested to see some data on those thoughts though from outside a gaming forum.

Never had a PS3 before but I always knew they had quality exclusives. Now that i've played I:SS and TLOU:R I can see that it's true.
