Hello everyone. After reading dozens upon dozens of threads about remasters and the lack of identity of the 8th gen, I have decided to make an analysis of the most succesfull 8th gen console libraries of this gen: the PS4, the XBone and the 3DS. I'm going to look at the monthly schedule of this consoles (or at least try), looking for this information:
-The day of its release. If a game releases months later on another region, I will only count the earlier release (so no timed exclusive).
-Its uniqueness. If the game is an system exclusive, family exclusive (PS exclusive, per example), console/handheld multiplat (exclusive to consoles and/or handhelds) regular multiplat (PC and others included). I will also point out if it's a remake/remaster of and older game, and which gen belonged the original.
-Only major retail releases. I can't keep track of indies and digital only games.
I'm going to start with the launch titles of the PS4 and all major PS4 games released on November 2013. If I make a mistake, I don't write some important data or you think I should add more information, please tell me so.
I'm not trying to criticize any console, I don't pretend to start any flamewar. Just to compare how the libraries of this consoles evolve month after month.
