Obviously Sony isn't going to pay their developers just to sit on their hands, but unlike Microsoft, Sony isn't trying to push more exclusives or cross gen exclusives to be on the console. Microsoft doesn't have enough development studios, so you know what they do? Microsoft pays third party publishers funding to develop a few exclusives here and there. Sony has more development studios, but they've got these studios stretched thin. Japan studios is working on a few Vita titles, Naughty Dog's two studios are working Uncharted 4 and a port of The Last of Us, etc, etc, etc. So instead of fully supporting the PS4 and the Vita, Sony is half assing it and not really supporting either one as much as they should. Take a look at Nintendo and how many games the Wii U had as exclusives Nintendo both developed and paid for during the first year. Now check out the amount of exclusives for the 3DS during that first year. Or cross platform exclusives. Sony has just came out and said that they no give a shit about the Vita so there's that. No need to take the nothing literally, but Sony isn't doing much to try and really push ahead of the competition. It's just business as usual for them because Sony still has that same "we're Sony"complacent attitude. The attitude that they have when they launch any consnole and portable. The attitude that had the PS3 in last place almost the entire last gen, the attitude that's killed the Vita and almost killed the PSP if not for the somewhat decent third party support the system received. That attitude of theirs is unlike Nintendo and Microsoft, in which both publishers came out of the gate swinging, trying to take hold of as much marketshare as they could. The PS4 is the better system and so far that's got Sony where they're at now, but Sony's complacency is going to cost them sales. |
Sonys "complacency" is not going to cost them any kind of marketshare, the deals that they've made for this holiday season are more than enough to make up for the lack of a big AAA exclusive.
I'll repeat myself Sony is completely supporting the PS4, your problems is just that you're totally impatient and not willing to look past what has actively been shown to you. What the hell is it supposed to mean if you say they're half assing their support? They are working on games for the PS4, all of them and believe it or not, Sony has literally nothing to gain from not having their first party studios working their hardest on those new games, do you understand that? They have to pay those people and the longer the development of a game, the more expensive it becomes, so Sonys studios are not sitting around thinking they don't have to get their work done since the PS4 is selling anyway, that doesn't even make sense.
You completely fail to explain how Sonys studios are not supporting the PS4, or is in your mind support = having all their games out in the first year?
Oh and I suspect everything digital is to be completely taken out of the equation so that getting something awesome/interesting looking like No Man's Sky, The Witness, ABZU, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture or Rime on the PS4 first/exclusively can't be taken as support.
