Nothing supports this critically or commercially. GOW, Uncharted 4, Lost Legacy, GT Sport, DriveClub, MLB, Horizon, Killzone, inFamous: Second Son, inFamous: First Light, Astrobot VR, Gravity Rush 2, Knack 1+2, The Last Guardian, with stuff like Days Gone, Concrete Genie, Dreams, Medievil Remake, TLOU2, GOT in the pipeline. This isn't even including co - developed stuff like BloodBorne and The Order, Sony owned IP's that are licensed to second/ third parties like LBP3 & SoTC, and PS3 games like GT6 and Puppeter that could have easily been PS4 launch titles. |
If you think 15 or so titles over 5 years, most of which are just solid titles at best and nothing spectacular, is incredible, then we can just agree to disagree. And outside of a few heavy hitters, yeah, critically my comment stands true. Commercially I have no idea, idk what these games sell and idc. Ed Sheeran sells a lot of albums. NCIS has a lot of viewers. I should have added imho after that part you bolded, I thought I did. Oh well.
And of course it doesn’t include money deals like Bloodborne or outsourced stuff or 2nd party stuff. This is about studios Sony owned.
And those few heavy hitters I mentioned above that got great critical praise were, again, made by developers Sony bought. Nothing wrong with buying more. There are plenty of genres Sony doesn’t cover.
