God of war is indeed a good 1st party game, all the other "so called blockbusters" are 2nd party. Kantor, i've lost count of the amount of microsoft threads that you have gatecrashed lately so thats a bit unfair m8. I'm just simply pointing out that sony had nothing to begin with and relied heavily on capcom, konami, square, namco ect to get them to where they are today. When microsoft have been in the console gaming business 15 years we can come back and see who has the most developers then huh.

You're not gatecrashing a Sony thread, you're gatecrashing a Microsoft thread, which when you think about it isn't gatecrashing at all. I don't remember claiming that Microsoft would become a third party...
Anyway, what we are agreeing on is that Sony 1st and Second Party > Microsoft 1st and 2nd party. Of course Sony had nothing to begin with. Microsoft had nothing to begin with. Sony slowly built up their first party, faster than Microsoft, it seems. Sony has needed to work on its first party a lot because of lost third party exclusives. If you look at it, aren't Gears of War and Mass Effect first party? Microsoft owns the IPs, Microsoft publishes it. I suppose the PS3 equivalent would be Heavy Rain. However, Microsoft owns a lot more third-party-developed IPs than Sony.
Microsoft's first party will improve when it needs to improve. So I suppose I'm agreeing with you again.
