1, 2, 4) That is quite simply a lie. Yoshida never said that indies were Sonys main focus, stop making shit up. He said, that AAA developments has become more costly, but that there are a lot of indies to fill the gaps, that in no way means that indies are their main focus. Their studios are all still working on AAA PS4 games and Sony is also still working with third parties to secure retail exclusives.

3) Let me just list a couple games that are indie according to your brilliant definition:

Sunset Overdrive

Quantum Break

Beyond Two Souls

The Order 1886

Wonderful 101

Bayonetta 2

Awesome isn't it?

1, 2, 4) ** sigh ** Alright. Then Yoshida insinuated it. Plus, looking at what Sony showcased this past E3 and during Gamescom, it's pretty obvious which direction they're going. No one is saying Sony isn't also focusing on AAA games. They are! Look at me - I'm saying they are focusing on AAA titles! See? However, AAAs are not their main focus. Their main focus are indie titles. AAAs are their second focus. Look, Nintendo's main focus is also indie titles. Why? Because the industry is changing. AAA game budgets are ballooning, and the industry can't support them. Needing over 4 million copies sold just to break even isn't a very healthy business model. So, both Nintendo and Sony are focusing on indies. This isn't a bad thing. Stop arguing in a vain attempt to make Sony prettier to Microsoft fans. You're honestly wasting your time.

3) I didn't give you a definition of what indies are. I linked you to the developers website where they say they are an indie studio. Just give up.

1, 2, 4) Their main focus aren't indie titles. Period.

3) Yeah and guess what I did, I gave you a list of games that were developed by studios that are all classified as independent and if you can tell me with a straight face that you seriously classify all those games as indie, then you're absolutely trying way too hard to prove your point. Just give up.
