I suppose it can't be too big of a surprise given how aggressive Sony has been this gen. The Destiny deal along with the PS4 unexpectedly dominating across the world is doing wonders for them snagging marketing deals now.
Several 3rd party's quickly switched over to Sony once things took off and that's going to lead to even stronger sales down the road. If anything It seems getting marketing deals does a great deal in swaying general opinion and interest from the broader casual player base which makes up the majority of players. Last gen Microsoft having the full year lead and grabbing up Call of Duty may very well have done more for them then any exclusive (including Halo) could.

Not sure where your getting that idea from... Allot of the people who originally played FF7 were not JRPG fans beforehand. Far as I know JRPG fans (including square) are hoping FF7 revitalize interest in the bigger JRPGs which has been diminishing allot over the years in favor of low budget hand-held or mobile games. Shooters alone wont push a conesole anyway its only one part of many regardless of if its the biggest chunk of the pie.
