I don't have that opinion of Sony at all. I tend to think people are falling for a line of PR BS. Let's count how many indie games(that are successful) on the PS4/XB1 1 year after launch. It will probably be 1 or 2 on each system. Not much reason to even talk about them.
Because people can spin it as a weakness or a flaw, even when it's not.

The more downloadable games you add, the more some people tend to say that you're focusing too much on smaller developers--even if you're adding more big budget games at the same time. Announce 10 AAA games and 5 indie games = awesome! Announce 10 AAA games and 15 indie games = what the hell, why so few AAA games? It's almost comical. |
That sounds like something people do all the time for pretty much anything. It becomes relative. It is kind of like an averaging process people do.
edit: fixed a typo

Not sure if trolling... or brain has been surgically removed...
It's prob due to the gamecom conference. The only thing that was really there were indies, indies and more indies. So that might be where the perception started for some.
It all just depends on which way you would like to spin it, either way both consoles have admirable lineups.

Rime, Resogun, Everyones Gone to Rapture, HellDivers, Shadow of the Beast, etc. All of these will be successful if there's any good left in the world.
It's an argument created by pro-XBone users that are left nothing at this point but to do damage control, because they know their favorite console has pretty much already lost. Funny thing too, because last I checked, one of the biggest pro-360 arguments is how many indie games the system has available over the competition. But I guess because that ball is in someone else's court, it's irrelevant all of the sudden.
Sorry, but with Xbox fans, there's more flip flops with them than a popular beach in the middle of summer.

What would you market as their flagship? Anything they do with the Move or the Eye will be compared to Microsoft and Nintendo. Their big shooter is already being compared to Halo. Drive Club vs Forza. Blu-ray isn't there exclusive.
They don't have a TitanFall. The most buzzed about game in years. Many other games are multi plat. And we are not going to see the differences in how they run for a while yet. (Not that I think that will be good news for them.) Knack, which might be fun, people dismiss as a kids game.
They could show why the touchpad on the PS4 controller is essential.
Back to my first question, what would you run as the lead 'Only on the PS4' game if you were in charge of advertising?

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon! |
