Forums - Sony Discussion - PS4 failed so badly...

Xenobot on 24 June 2014

First of all: I'm a huge Playstation fanboy.

2nd: Playstation fanboys are always so proud of first party titles.

Having said that let's look at the numbers for this gen:

(exclusive count for top selling games)

PS4: 3 out of 10 (top selling exclusive #5)

XBOX: 4/10 (top selling exclusive #1)

WII U: 10/10 (no comment)

excuse them for not pushing Puppeteer, GT6, tLoU, Sly Thieves in Time, GoW Ascension, and Beyond 2 Souls onto PS4 and instead supporting the PS3 to the very end and beyond

I see 2 exclusives in the Xbox top 10 and 3 in the PS4 top 10.  You should check your numbers again.

Boom. I went there.

Just because you say you're a PS fanboy doesn't mean you're being truthful here.

First of all they are pushing TLOU on PS4 and second of all none of those games sold very well. Which was the OPs point. GT6 might have sold decent tohough...

double post:(

Sony exclusives sells well but doesn't top number 1 because they have many exclusives targeted different user base, so they have diversity. Only online shooters top because they have something to play everyday online unlike Sony where focus mostly on single player content exclusives.



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

Titanfall is not exclusive (neither is Dead rising 3). It's also COD.

Shadow fall and Infamous > Forza 5



akhmenhawk on 24 June 2014

All of a sudden, Titanfall is exclusive to xbox one.
