Microsoft instead of spending money to make PS3 owner not play some Third party games for a year (ME2, GTA4 DLC), should create some new IPs for 360 owners.

Alan Wake, Crackdown, Lost Odyssey, Infinite Undiscovery, Blue Dragon etc are new ips that were created this gen that will never appear on a non microsoft home console.

Jeez how many new ips do you people expect from Microsoft each gen? 

Also this is the first gen Sony has actually had 1st party games people cared about.  During the ps1 and ps2 era the games that got most of the critical acclaim and sales belonged to third parties. So going by that logic most people shouldn't be talking until they see what Microsoft does next gen.

 

Wrong. People cared about Gran Turismo, God of War, Ico/Shadow of the Colossus, Jak & Daxter and so on and so fourth long before the PS3 was even out.

Gran Turismo was created in the ps1 era

God of War was ps2

Ico/Shadow of the Colossus came out during the ps2 era it got critical acclaim but its a niche title that most didn't play

Jak and Daxter gets sales and it's a solid 8 title but it's overshadowed by other platformers like mario

The issue I am referring to in this post is everyone acts like Sony has always had so many great first party ips from the start which isn't the case as you have just listed.  They slowly built it up over time.

Also your list points out another problem with Sony sure they create a lot of new ips but they abandon a lot of them and move on to something else when fans would really like to see sequels.  How long have people been asking and begging for legend of dragoon again?
