I'm not saying that there's anything bad about PSN downloadable games or anything. It's just that.. Nobody is dropping hundreds of dollars of cash to play a downloadable Indie game. A free to play game is in the same boat. Kresnik, be honest, would you buy a brand new $400 dollar PS4 specifically for a free to play game? Even if you look at the sales each week, you will see that nobody is buying a system for a free to play game. |
Nobody bought the system for Untold Legends either. I was comparing like for like. An SOE game for an SOE game.
(And to be honest, yeah. I'm more likely to buy a PS4 because of Planetside 2 than I was to buy a PS3 for Untold Legends. Planetside 2 looks like a legitimately good game and my PC couldn't run it in a month of Sundays)
I'm still more partial to the PS3's first year but that's just because it's full of the kind of niche stuff that just isn't being made by anyone anymore, period (Ratchet; Heavenly Sword; Folklore etc.)
Also, it's worth pointing out that in your list in the OP:
- 6 of the PS3 games you listed are developed by Sony-owned studios.
- 7 of the PS4 games you listed are developed by Sony-owned studios.
So if anything, their in-house content seems to have gotten better. It's the lack of partnerships with outside studios that's hurting the exclusives lineup (but Sony are partnering with outside studios, they're just releasing them as downloadable/F2P titles. Because times have changed. Hence my point).
