Last Guardian a new franchise? And Street Fighter as a first party? |
Last Guardian never came out... technically it's still new.
|
Technically - yes. And they helping making SF5, yes. BUT all this small things just add up into some stupid pr shit.
|
Yes, referring to SFV as first party is inaccurate but the guy just admitted that their 1st party holiday lineup turned out worse than they had hoped.
That's actually a moment of honest admittance and all you have to say is "stupid pr shit". Sigh.
Besides, the term "1st party" gets thrown around a lot these days. Often in the wrong context. Look no further than Microsoft's latest NPD PR:
"The most critically-acclaimed holiday lineup of exclusives in Xbox history helped drive 44 percent growth in Xbox Live hours over last November, and 72 percent growth in U.S. first-party retail game sales [this includes Rise of the Tomb Raider] comparing sales from August through November in 2015 to the same period last year."

"Yet again", even though they've never said it once and did not say it in this instance either.
Don't see how MS did " very well". All Sony needs to do next year to match this Xbox year is release U4 and GT; that's it. And a 2016 with no exclusives other than SF5 (the "equivalent" of Rottr), U4 and GT would indeed be a "trash year", take from that what you will.

Sony and Microsoft with both have great years, next year. It will be more competitive in terms of exclusives. Sony didnt really need exclusives to beat Microsoft and their bundles during the holiday proved that.
Quantum Break, Scalebound, Gears of War 4, Killer Instinct: Season 3 & Forza Horizon and more will be dropping for Microsoft next year. Sony has Street Fighter 5, Uncharted, Horizon and a couple of other games but nothing substantial. Sony will dominate Microsoft in JRPG's though and the multiplats will be great on both platforms to boot. Its why I own both consoles. I get everything and cant get screwed by timed exclusivity.

Dude. You had a (good) point about Microsoft having more blockbusters in 2015 but now you're completely contradicting yourself by highlighting both unproved (Quantum Break and Scalebound) and historically low selling games (Killer Instinct and Forza Horizon) as reasons why Microsoft has a strong 2016 lineup.
Earlier you argued that PS4's 2015 lineup of exclusives (Bloodborne, Until Dawn, The Order: 1886, MLB 15: The Show, God of War 3 Remastered, Tearaway Unfolded and Nathan Drake Collection) objectively was inferior to XB1's (Halo 5: Guardians, Forza Motorsport 6, Gears of War Remastered, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Rare Replay) for the sole reason that XB1 had the biggest selling blockbusters and in some ways I agreed with you (though they all ended up underperforming in sales).
So why aren't big blockbuster exclusives important in 2016 when PS4 clearly has the upper hand?
Objectively speaking 3 of the biggest PS exclusive IP are getting a new release in 2016.
1. Uncharted
2. The Last of Us
3. Gran Turismo
4. God of War
5. Ratchet & Clank
Oh.. Regarding your "and a couple of other games but nothing substantial". You're pushing it ;-p
