Weird, that gamble is exactly what Nintendo and MS did, which is why they can both claim of themselves that their biggest studios either have released new games on the system already or will have by the end of the year, by your logic companies shouldn't ever ditch their old systems. There might be some point to not taking a gamble like that with a huge franchise as a launch game (which is why I said that GT6 should have been cross gen and that TLOU should have stayed on PS3), but smaller games like R&C and Puppeteer or spin off GOW games are exactly the type of games that you should take these risks with, because they can actually benefit from the lack of competition on a new system more than from a huge userbase, I mean have you ever checked out the bloated sales numbers of launch or close to launch games?

Do you think Knack would've sold what it did, had it released on PS3 Or Killzone SF? Or how about Resistance and Motorstorm had they released on PS2?

If they were worried about their system not performing as well at launch then that would've been even more of a reason to actually get those games on the PS4 instead of keeping them on the PS3, after all games sell systems right? No, Sony just planned that whole thing extremely poorly which is only even more underlined by the stupid release dates they gave 3 out of the 4 titles that I'd have rather they had pushed to the PS4.

Oh and the games are Screamride and ROTTR vs. MLB The Show 15

I m Confused Is it about first party development or Sony Publishing. and by your logic releasing God of War 2 and SoTC on PS2 was a mistake right! not to mention they were remastered later on.. I dont know what to say when u believe TLoU should have stayed on PS3, sales no. speak otherwise.. Yes about smaller niche game, it will no doubt get a significant boost, but that will offset with remasters.

And which part are your not able to comprehend or do you have insider information that sony has nothing to announce at E3 for 2015??? and jumping onto conclusion that they should counter Halo 5.. Even if Sony Announce The Last guardian for next year at E3, that will be huge in terms of Hype it have going into this fall

Scream ride, ROTTR, VS MLB, Helldivers and BigFest... So no.

You wouldn't be confused if you actually read the freaking OP, it is about both, Sony is involved in both. And yes both SotC and GoW2 should have been on PS3 at launch, they were just fortunate enough to turn out good enough to actually warrant being Remastered, do you seriously believe GoW Ascension, Puppeteer or R&C Into the Nexus are going to be remastered? None of those even remotely warrant a remaster and looking at everything that's been said GT6 isn't going to be remastered either.

And I don't see how sales numbers speak against TLOUs release on PS3, the game sold 7 million+ on PS3 and in general I have not said that Sony shouldn't have supported the PS3 in 2013 anymore at all, TLOU should have if at all been a simultaneous cross gen release.

Considering the bolded part I don't even know what you're talking about cause none of that has anything to do with my post.
