And that's the best strategy, the customers are responding very positively. Much better than getting caught in an endless loop of a few IPs getting sequelized ad nauseum.
I must admit that I am always much more excited for new Sony IPs (except Uncharted, of course), especially now with Horizon, Until Dawn, TLG...

Yep I had a 360 all last gen but I noticed Sony was doing this and switched to PS4 partly because of it. I like new IP's and I want to see new ideas even if they end up sucking it's still worth a try. Don't get me wrong Gears of War is great but after I finsihed #3 I was done and the game was tired  at that point. I wish MS would have taken more chances like with Alan Wake which was an amazing game.

Slightly off topic, but Alan Wake was interesting for me. My friend was hyped for it and got the game, then he ended up letting me play and beat it while he basically just watched. I had a lot of fun with it, and I'm definitely disappointed that it was left to die.
