Sony more than covered their end, they got a healthy dose of third party games that doesnt hamper me from gaming at all. Their ports arent terrible, they just have a possibly worse framerate issue or texture pop-ins but so did the Xbox 360. Depends on the third party game.. The online is not inferior by a longshot any longer, In fact PSN has only grown and offered more to the consumer than the competition, and the online activity in games like COD, Battlefield and FIFA prove its smooth access online is basically equal to the 360 (The 360 downloads a bit faster and thats about all I noticed). Sony has essentially done their part of keeping online gaming playable and free, yet involved themselves in premium service that gives away a heap of games monthly. This is something that no other console can say they get free or even with a monthly fee. If you're a gamer....its kind of obvious where the games are currently whether one likes them or not. The online use is as healthy as ever. I wonder....if their online games content was inferior, how come PSN games have been on GOTY lists outside of their categories?

@bold. So you haven't yet answered OP, since the PS3 wasn't a good comparison to the U.

What would you do if the PS4 got bad and late ports, rather than the opposite (game being delayed on U to match PS4 schedule, rayman legends).

Would you boycott to the risk of being called a whiney fanboy?


Hypothetically speaking, its understandable to be frustrated with late ports when you're expecting to have a certain console, but I am loyal to no console. Also, to anyone investing in Nintendo over the past three gens already one should be weary about how much third party they expect from Nintendo to begin with. Anyway, I just go to the one that provides me with the most game possibilities and yes that currently just so happens to be Sony. They failed earlier in the gen but they came back up with no excuses. They know how to tie up their issues and just get the job done.

If in the case that the PS4 got late ports, like the PS3 I would only suspect that Microsoft stood in the way. Sony makes policies about DLC being added to the product for Xbox 360 timed exclusives. Its a much better deal than Microsoft cutting their gamers off at the hip if they don't get a game on its expected launch date. Everyone suffers then.  I have to applaud Nintendo on their late ports, it had me looking in the direction of the Wii U for a while, but now I've realized I want them for their exclusives more so I just cannot wait until they amass them. I've had that feeling about Nintendo for quite a while now as Nintendo has consistently been my secondary console since the PS made its debut. Last gen I missed out on the Wii but I played the games worth playing at a friends house so I really didnt miss out on too much in the end. I might patch up some loose ends on the U.
