| FatalInertia said: Umm Uncharted alone is on pace to be a huge franchise, God of war, Gran turismo already is, and so is metal gear solid. Sony has more top selling franchises then xbox. its not 1 franchise that sells a system however, its a combination of games, and sony has that in spades. |
Sadly CoD is the one franchise that is keeping the 360 in front of the PS3
11 months of the year the PS3 is destroying the 360 in sales worldwide but then BÄM CoD - 11 months effort get destroyed.
As long as this continues and it probably will as sad as it is(see at BO2 - Same copy+paste garbage and sells like hell) Microsoft can put their money into other things.They don't need the variety in games and genres.
They only need CoD and here and there their Halo....Sony on the other hand has to put out 30 different franchises while creating 20 new ones cause "gamers" of these days have a non existent taste in games.
Games like Uncharted and God of War should all be at 25 Million for each game cause they are top notch quality and pushed everything beyond limits with every game.
Sony will need 3rd Party support more than ever.
Development costs are rumored to be doubled and at the same time the PS4 is getting architectures that even devs that aren't Sony 1st Party should be able to understand.If this doesn't help nothing will and we can enjoy our CoD Copy+paste games every year(and other franchises turn into CoD like some did already in this Gen) cause nothing else will be worth the effort for them.
