Yeah, PS1, when games could be spit out yearly and they didn't even cost a million to make. How many Sony built PS1 frachises have Survived today? Just GT and the last entry did incredibly poorly.
You stated Microsoft never made a game that was successful from an internal studio. The truth is, both they and Nintendo have. By at least 2:1 compared to Sony. Sorta pathetic that Kinect costs $150 and Wii Fit something comparable and the best Sony has is GT3 at $59.99, which was also bundled. Bear in mind, this is something you brought up. At the end of the day, it's really just a false qualifier you set yourself, I think to make you feel better since Minecraft and Halo are eclipsing every Playstation franchise. But hey, at least Sony is losing because of games they thought up themselves....
I said Killzone and Motorstorm have slowed down. Which isn't really accurate, so much has they have stopped and keeled over. When are the next games in these franchises coming out? As for Uncharted, well it was indicative of Uncharted 3....but, y'know, even Naughty Dog don't want to make them anymore. Its very telling. Also "Main entry", lol. Also, you're wrong about Halo, Halo 4 is the best selling Halo of all time. 14 million units. Quite a bit better then GT6's 3 million and change.
Microsoft helps out with hands on development of every game released on any Xbox....
Early? Sony been showing off this machine for 3 freaking years now ...for a machine that's "For the Players", it sure seems to be largely be about HD remasters and games developed outside of SCE which just exemplifes sonys reliance on 3rd parties
Perhaps not this time, but unlike Sony they will survive it.
Probably none in terms of quantity of IP, especially if you count the PS2 generation. On the otherhand, 90% of those IP are dead, the other 10 % are PSN or Vita games which Microsoft doesn't seem to bother with for about 3,348 reasons. They only seem interested in blockbusters. |

So if they didn't survive the PS1 era they don't count? Lol. MS still lost if we compare the OXB to the PS2 in first party content produced. What's your excuse? Minecraft is eclipsing every PS franchise, yet it can be played on the PS3/4/Vita? Right. Then you link me to a Wikipedia article regarding Halo 4 sales? Go figure. If we go by VG numbers it still has to crack 10 Million. I also haven't heard an official statement from MS in terms of H4 being the best selling Halo either. You talk about Kinect Adventures like its some kind of saviour for the Xbox. Why couldn't that franchise help the XOne sell units with the Kinect bundled? Lmfao. It's pathetic that a game that "sells" 30 Million & nearly a 2:1 sales advantage compared to the competition can't even get the One on pace to surpass the worst selling PS console. Where are those sales now? GT6 launched at a terrible time, it'll more or less match Halo this generation, but GT5 has sold close to 11 Million. And no it hasn't been three years for the PS4 launch until November 2016 & by then a ton of first party titles will be out. Nice stretch again. You can hope Sony doesn't survive this gen, or MS is in for another second place finish. Finally comparing studios made from the ground up, Sony wins in sales, quality (critic scores) & quantity, pick your poison.
