Forums - Gaming - How important are first party launch titles?

 

How are the lineups?

There is enough along with the 3rd parties 3 33.33%
 
They need more 1st party 4 44.44%
 
It's A ok with me! 2 22.22%
 
Total:9

So, I'm one of those people that think the ps4 first party launch lineup is lacking. Then I thought about it more, and quite frankly there is a game covering most of the genres. Even if some of these seem a bit lackluster to me, there are tons of third party games too like watch dogs, bf4, and cod ghost to name a few. Realistically I won't be picking up more then 2-3 titles at launch anyways. Same goes for the xbox one buyers too with there 1st party games. The 3rd party titles make quite a nice lineup for all types of gamers. More first party titles will start hitting in early to mid 2014 anyways.So what do you think? Is the first party offerings pus 3rd good enough for launch lineups? Do you think they should offer a bigger amount right out the gate?

honestly if xbox had halo 5 as a launch title shit wud go down xD



Actually it is more important for Nintendo to have first party games upon release.. not so much Sony and Microsoft.. still it would be interesting to see Halo 5 I guess.. compete with something like God of War right out of the gates.. just to see if it has any kind of impact.. but I think overall most fans will be happy with this..



Nintendo Wii by generations...

1. Wii

2. Wii U

3. Wii O U

Predictions made by gamers concerning the current Nintendo line up of games.

Pikmen 3= Little Bump to nothing. (Got Little Bump)

Wind Waker HD= Won't sell anything (The explosion happened here and at one time 4 Wii U games was in the Amazon top 100)

Super Mario 3D World= Won't help at all looks cheap. (Currently the most sought after Wii U game and continuing the Wii U increase.)

Doesn't XB1 also have Kinect Sports & Killer Instinct at launch?

Anyway, I say 3 quality 1st party games are enough for launch.

Kinect Sports is officially a launch game but I can't find much on KI's release. It is a full retail game but not sure if it's 2013 or not. I assumed it would be.
