This will unsurprisingly play out with regards to which of the big three (Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft) people like the most. People aren't nearly unbiased enough with their opinions to pick a rivals game, even if said game is deserving. You're asking WAY too much of the internet if you think otherwise lol.

 

Gotta play said game first too.  Where is Dreadnought?

 



Feel free to check out my stream on twitch 

Horizon



This generation sucks donkey balls in terms of new IP.

Last gen we had Bioshock, Uncharted, Gears of War, Xenoblade, Bayonetta, Dead Space, Vanquish, so many great new franchises.

If you wanna play that game, you could say each generation sucked balls compared to the last. The NES era was far more revolutionary and original than the SNES era and the PS1/N64 was more revolutionary than the PS2/Xbox generation. 

Games have been getting less original and less creative every generation. I really don't see an end in sight either. At least until VR becomes fully realized.

You say that as a Wii U and Switch player.

PS4 has some amazing new IP's that you wouldn't play cause its a PS4, sadly.



Only played horizon and splatoon loved both.



The Evil Within



Overwatch. Never has a fps got me so addicted and never has a game ever got me so mad.

The reason I don't play them isn't cos they're on PS4, but because they simply don't look very interesting to me. I could walk to EB Games and buy a PS4 right now if it had games I felt I couldn't go without, just like I bought an Xbox 360 last gen because I didn't want to miss out on Bioshock, Bayonetta, or Gears of War.

Uncharted didn't exactly launch to great success or acclaim, vanquish bombed, dead space died a pretty shitty death fairly quickly and even Xenoblade buggered many fans with it's sequel. I agree that this gen hasn't gotten much new IP worthy of the 7th gen but the games you chose to highlight aren't perhaps the best to showcase that. 

Uncharted 1 was still good and from 2 onwards it became great, and Dead Space 1 and Vanquish were superb, the crappiness of DS3 and Vanquish's lack of sales do not change that. Likewise, Xenoblade X being a step down doesn't counteract the first game being an amazing new IP.
