Well the thing is, Media Molecule has been working on Tearaway as well, SCE Santa Monica released GoW Ascension earlier this year and Naughty Dog released the Last of Us in June. They all have second teams who have been working on these games. The games will probably be announced soon, but they already have 5 first party exclusives announced for PS4 (and 2 for PS3)

Oh okay then, nobody in Europe who watches "Champions League Soccer" pays any attention to the ads despite the final being the most watched sporting event in the world. Oh, and this sponsorship leads to advertsing for over 100 matches... Unlike the SuperBowl where anyone watching internationally gets different adverts, everyone sees the pitch side ads which is where Sony sponsor.

And finally, I seem to recally Sony advertising God of War Ascension at the Superbowl yet the game not selling well, funny that

World Cup final is the most watched sport event not Champions League. GoW: Ascension was dead on arrival, it just had the usual fake hype you guys create about your games then they flop on sales. Look at TLOU, the most hyped game this gen but it's craling to get to 3 mil after being released 3 months ago in the wake of next gen reveal.

3m is quite succesful and thanks for lumping me in with PS fanboys. There is a reason that I haven't bought Ascension

World Cup maybe, but it is only on every 4 years. I am fairly sure that the Champions League gets more viewers than the Euros (World Cup equivalent for Europe held 2 years after the World Cup). The point is that Sony get very much behind football in Europe and it has proven to be a succesful strategy, especially as they have been doing it for many years now and will be useful as the popularity of European football increases around the world

Sponsoring American Football is something that will only effect America and a few weird people (like me) who watch the NFL overseas. Their strategy of including FIFA 14 with every console at launch is going to have a much greater impact
