| Touma said: XB1 and PS4 will not be a flop like Wii u without the hype. Besides the line up for 2014 is enough good: Thief, Halo 5, Titanfall, Infamous: Second Son, The Elder Scrolls, Daylight, Destiny, MGSV, Watch Dogs, Dying Light, Driveclub, The Witcher 3, The Order: 1886, FFXV... |
I seriously doubt Halo 5 is coming out in 2014. That would be the shortest time between numbered entries in series history. And do you really think FF15 is coming out anytime soon?
Meanwhile, games like MGS5, The Witcher 3, and Watch Dogs are also appearing on other platforms. Hell, Watch Dogs is also on the Wii U!
As for what's left, you have untested IP's, an MMO, and a couple of sequels to games that weren't that popular in the first place. Infamous 2 only sold 1.6 million on a userbase of 80 million.
Besides, I could just have easily made a similar list for the Wii U back this time a year ago. "Oh, the Wii U is going to have a great 2013! You have Pikmin 3, Rayman Legends, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Lego City, Aliens: Colonial Marines, The Wonderful 101, and Bayonetta 2! Of course it will sell great!" And we all know how that turned out.
Face it, if the PS4 and One do well in 2014, it probably won't be because of games not possible on their predecessors. It will be because of brand recognition and people not knowing how to build PC's.
