Terrible analysis.

The whole market has changed. When PS2 launched there were 3rd parties making exclusive games simply because there was nothing else to release them on. The parity between PS4 and X1 is unprecedented in the history of (3d) consoles - it's too easy to make multiplats to ignore. And as some have mentioned, games cost HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars. They are MUCH MUCH more expensive to make and hence there is a much larger risk involved when publishing a game - doing so on multiple platforms decreases this risk.

As I said, terrible analysis.


I agree with this pretty much. There are SO many differences and factors that have changed from then compared to now. This is kind of a very silly comparision that doesn't really make much sense to me to be honest. Games cost way more to develop now, a lot of those games were 3rd party exclusives, quantity does not equal quality, you left out that the online aspect is huge now so indie/f2p/downlaodable titles play a much bigger role now.....there are way to many holes in the thought process of the OP on this one,

No disrepect or anything because it is still your opinion but looking at how things and times have changed I just can't agree with this at all.



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...
