Well deserved :)

k I know I am me and I reaaaally don't wanna be that guy now, but principle dictates me to say this.

Killzone SF isn't on the same level critically as KZ 3 and especially not KZ2 (the best of the IP by far). Yet it is selling at a faster pace, most likely due to being the sole launch exclusive worth getting.

Now this is great for the developers, no doubt about that. It is like a fresh start to expand upon as PS4 grows. But as fans of the IP....should you really be encouraging this? It is like celebrating COD sales every year, even though the meta score gets lower and lower. Ideally, we should reward quality that also sells amazing.

(if I behave like this when a X1 game scores lower yet sells higher, feel free to call me out whomever reads this).

While I would honestly kinda agree with your point that mediocre games selling better than great games isn't exactly something to be proud of, it is still not something exclusive to the PS fanbase, I've seen people say similar things about Ryse or Forza 5 for example. People just love to see exclusives sell well.

Exactly, this is hardly a new or PS only thing, ryse is a good example, that game would be a bomb if it were not a x1 launch title.
