Has there been any big games for a while? Besides Metro, Star Trek, Tomb Raider, and Bioshock?

The 3DS has 2-4 huge recent hits, yet is still behind it.

Then it seems that most gamer's thoughts on the Xbone are not good, yet the 360 is still winning in the U.S weekly.

What is going on?

One consoles success (the 360) has nothing to do with the failure of the subsequent console (xbox one) for starters just like the ps2 sales/momentum had no effect on the ps3's sales cause of their blunders with the ps3 launch. The reality is america is microsofts stronghold, and why they may win the battle for america they have lost the war, because sony has a global 3 territory strategy (japan, europe, and america) vs microsoft who has to constantly over perform in america just to stay competitive globally, and as a result sony has caught up/overtaken them at the end of the console cycle with sony clearly in the lead to finish this gen off.
