Amazing quarter for Sony. It seems like they've spread out their games nicely, and on one of the most notorious weakest quarters.

Q1 is always the second strongest quarter of the year with many high profile releases.

If they've done it in the actual weak quarters 2 and 3 that would be amazing. It's a great lineup for Q1 but it's not unusual.

Really? I think Q1 is usually one of the weakest. Q2 is usually decent, with some good releases from April - June. And Q3 is always very good as well, it includes September which is when the busy holiday release period starts.

Just look at the past Q1s. Just PS4/PS3 as an example

2014: Tomb Raider DE, Outlast, Ground Zeroes, Infamous, Thief, LR:FFXIII, Stick of Truth, Dark Souls 2

2013:  DMC, Dead Space 3, Metal Gear Rising, Tomb Raider, GOW Ascension, Bioshock Infinite

2012: FFXIII-2, MGS HD collection, Soul Calibur V, Kingdoms of Amalur, Mass Effect 3, Streetfighter x Tekken, Silent Hill HD Collection, Twisted Metal, Ninja Gaiden 3

2011: LBP 2, Mass Effect 2, Deadspace 2, Crysis 3,  Bulletstorm, Killzone 3, Dragon Age 2, Motorstorm Apocalypse, Homefront, Yakuza 4, Dynasty Warriors 7

and the list goes on.

Q1 is ALWAYS strong with many high profile big name games. It easily rivals Q4.
