Well Playstation already has some big exclusives this year, like Horizon and Crash. Not unsuprising, this is not the year of Uncharted.

My memories kind of foggy. Are Horizon Zero Dawn and Uncharted the only big exclusives Sony developed this year? I know Gravity Rush was Sony but that was smaller. If so, then those third parties really came through x D

GT Sport is about to release.

Ah yeah. My bad. I always forget Racing stuff!

Really good first week.

I was thinking of buying this on release, but I'm going to wait until it gets a little cheaper.

Yep I know you weren't trying to put Sony dow. But making a lot of deals may explain Sony not releasing as many 1st parties. But even so is a healthy amount compared to both competitors.

Hardly surprising.

Bear in mind, a lot of people would have also bought the extended Uncharted 4 edition, and got this for free. I actually forgot I had bought that edition, and only when browsing the store yesterday realized it was free to download.

It is truly a fantastic game though. I'm 7 chapters in. It has that familiar Uncharted formula, but with a few new creative twists. Naughty Dog seem to be getting even better, the cinematography is tighter and emotionally they connect you not only with the main protagonists, but also with side characters (human or otherwise). It's this willingness to try new things, and the absolutely breathtaking visuals on display that now has me so excited for TLOU2.

But if I told you there is drake in it? 



I'm sure Sony is happy with how its selling. Kinda sucks people are passing on it though, great game that stands on par with the main line titles.
