I fail to see how their competition is any better than Nintendo in this regard !
Uncharted: 4 games in 5 years
God of War: 6 games in 8 years with various collections and bundles
Little Big Planet: 4 games in 4 years
Forza: 5 games in 7 years
Halo: 5 mainline games in 11 years, with 2 spin offs
Now compare that to Nintendo´s franchises...
But obviously only Nintendo is called out...oh well, moving on !


New IP's, new ones that are different in style and set new standards. Sony has made more new IP's than Microsoft and Sony from first party.


Yes, and they use these established IPs (Killzone 4 and Infamous 3 for Ps 4, Sly 4 for PS3 ) while introducing new ones .....like Nintendo !Pandora´s Tower, Xenoblade, The Last Story, Kid Icarus, along side the 3DS eShop games (Dillons Rolling Western, Sakura Samurai, Ketzal´s Corridors, Crashmo etc.) last year, and for this year, we already know that they will bring the wonderful 101 not to mention that they revive old series that didn´t have entries in a long time (Pikmin3, Luigi´s Mansion 2, Pilotwings Resort) !


Good god....I just said they've made more new IP's. Gamespot actually did a count of how many first party games Sony had made this gen that were new IP's (not established) and the list by now is well over that now.

Xenoblade is just an offshoot of Xenosaga which was an already established franchise and had previously been on the DS. Its like saying Demon Souls is a completely different game from Darksouls.Nintendo tends to buy companies and have them make games they would dare not make themselves. Kid Icarus is not a new IP's its re-establishing a third string Nintendo character that Nintendo had in the back since the 80's. The last story is second party, not first party it was co-published. That game is a similar occurance to Lost Odyssey, because you know Mistwalker is the maker and Nintendo (like Microsoft) got them to give support to the console via co-publishing. Microsoft actually owns the IP to the Lost Odyssey unlike Nintendo, who didnt even have a hand in the development outside of financials. Pilotwings, Luigi's Mansion and Pilotwings Resort are also not new IP's. As I said its old games with a slightly different gameplay style.
