Dude...If you dont see the writing on the wall you will never get it. Microsoft has three studios dedicated to three specific games.

Actually its more like 5

  • Turn 10 - Forza Motorsport
  • The Coallition - Gears of War
  • 343i - Halo
  • Mojang - Minecraft
  • Lionhead - Fable

 Sony only has one of those with Polyphony.

  • Polyphony Digital - Gran Turismo - 18 years
  • Sony Santa Monica - God of War - 11 years (assuming gow PS4 is out next year and they don't continue)
  • Sony San Diego - MLB The Show - 11 years
  • Suckerpunch Infamous - 10 years (last sly cooper for them was 2005)
  • Team ICO - The Last Guardian - 10 years
  • Sony Bend - haven't made a new IP since 1999

I will bump this thread every time any of the above studios do not make a brand new IP. Also if:

  • Naughty Dogs next game after U4 is The Last of Us 2 or any other pre-existing franchise
  • Geurilla Games next game after Horizon is Horizon 2 or any other pre-existing franchise
  • Media Molecules next game after Dreams is Dreams 2 or any other pre-existing franchise
  • If Evolution studios....actually, no need to bother with that one

Microsoft has never (EVER) created a blockbuster franchise

With 30 million copies of Kinect Adventures in a single game and Halo on the verge of exceeding Gran Turismo sales despite a 4 YEAR HEADSTART, reality is against you this day....plus, you better tell Microsoft that Minecraft "doesn't count ".

 Microsoft invested a shit ton into first party their first and second gen and most were failures except for Fable and Forza and Crackdown which are not considered blockbusters.

If Forza is not a blockbuster, then with GT6 being the sales failure that it is, Sony has no blockbusters.

One thing I think you missed. More people will enjoy playing entries from Halo and Forza and Minecraft and Fable and Gears of War this year on Xbox One then they will playing the New IPS from Sonys internal studios this year on PS4 (thats a big fat zero games if you wondered.).
