I agree that the PS4 has a lack of AAA exclusives. Other than Drive Club (the jury is still out if this'll be a AAA racer) and The Order: 1886, there are no other PS4 AAA exclusives that have been announced thus far. I'm sure we'll see more at E3, but the whole "Sony has more and better exclusives" argument just isn't stacking up for 2014 as of today. Eventually we'll get a new GoW / Uncharted / GT etc, but it looks like those are all slated for 2015 and beyond at this point.


It didnt stack up on the first years of the PS3 aswell. Yet, look at things now.

Are we making argument for right here, right now? Or what is a sensible long term expectation for the whole generation? If you make a hasty decision you might end up with a disappointing system down the line. I know thats what happened to me with the 360. First 2 years wonderful... following ones, a disappointment.

How exactly were the first 2 years of the 360 different (or in your case, better) than the rest if its life span?

Notable 360 titles in its first 2 years on the market... COD2, King Kong and PD Zero at launch... wow.

Then Oblivion, Saints Row and Gears in '06... still nothing to really write home about.

 Then Forza 2, Crackdown, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3, Assassin's Creed, and COD4 in '07... huge lineup.  From this point on the 360 saw multiple AAA tiles year after year right on through 2013... if you didn't like what the 360 had to offer after the first 2 years, then what was the point of buying one in the first place?


First two years since i got it would correspond more to year 2 and 3. There were lots of exclusives. Blue dragon, mass effect, lost odyssey, infinite undiscovery, last remnant, star ocean, tales of vesperia, tenchu z, etc. After that, it dried up as microsoft gave up on japan and we startd to just get gears, halo and forza coupled with rushed fables. 

And erm... thats exactly my point. It was disappointing afterwards. Thats why im advising other to be careful not to fall for the early trap of right here, right now.
