I would agree with you. I think Drake has been the most recognized character for sony in the last two gens. Habing said the Drake seems to have had his day and has retired so he doesnt seem like a good choice going forward.

I guess that is the advantage of sony in that they have many syrong characters to choose from. I would say the current mazcot seems to be Kratos for this year. 

Exactly, Uncharted combined on PS3 sold 19m copies while GoW was at around 5m, and on PS4 Uncharted 4 and Uncharted Collection sold more than 15m. IMO only reason why people are choosing Kratos is because last GoW game, if actually Uncharted 4 was released after GoW I think more people would choose Nate, so I totaly agree with you that Kratos is current mascot for this year.

I dont think that Sony has many strong characters, at end currently everything comes to Nate and Kratos, others are not nearly strong enugh to be mascot (for instance Ratchet and Clank) or didnt had so much presence (maybe Ellie and Joel).

Lol. Yes my spelling was quite bad as i was doing it in a rush. Fixed.

 

I would say that sony has had a mascot for each ps gen rather than an overall mascot but i dont think it has been dominated by kratos and drake to the extent you suggest  I agree that Drake was the mascot of ps3. But i think the ps2 & ps4 have been more mixed with a bunch of ips and games. Maybe that's why both the ps2 and ps4 were both so successful?
