As I noted, we're talking about output, not how each of those games is individually judged. Based on owned output, the systems are fairly even up to this point. And, Heavy Rain isn't a Sony owned IP, so I didn't include it.

Next, as I also noted, First Light is a standalone game, not simply DLC. But, even if we remove it, the systems are neck-and-neck, negating what you said.

I'm obviously taking about quality. Sony has a lot of ps3 games that I left out because it's better not to be shown (lair, folklore and eye of judgement,ect). You know quality over quanity. And dying light is still DLC to a game that many ps3 games has.

If you're focused on quality (which i assume you measure through critical reception), shouldn't you be including MS in your argument? I do personally agree that Sony's output this generation has been worse (though the PS4 in general has been an improvement for me), but i feel that's doubly true for MS. They seem to be really struggling to push out major releases capable of garnering anything close to the kind of positive reception they were seeing last gen. Forza is the only major exception, with their best received titles outside of that being Gears 4 and Halo 5 (both sitting at 84).

Dreams seems to be a game that isn't going to do very well financially and we haven't heard or seen anything from it yet for a while. Sony is shutting down a lot of UK studios, kind of like Microsoft did with Lionhead. Their laws and taxes are very anti business and games have to sell well or they can't be continue. That is the world we live in. Trust me, I would love certain games to be made still like the Resistance series.

It's certainly possible you'll end up being right, but it seems as bit excessive to come to condemn them on the basis of speculation.
