Yeah, knowing Nintendo it  will be pushed back to 2016...

that was a typo. Zelda will release in november/december 2015. 0% chances of not happeneing. it's beyond me how someone can think otherwise.

While I think it's most likely Zelda will hit in November, a delay would not be out of character for Nintendo.

As for Sony, I don't think they have anything to worry about. Their momentum is so strong, they could ride the year out on multiplats alone. Heck, if they announced tomorrow that they've decided to adopt the same DRM Microsoft was castrated for proposing in 2013, I reckon gamers would roll with it.


Yep, Sony can't do anything wrong this gen. They have the image of "the good ones" and will keep it. They also have a very loyal fanbase and probably could keep the $399 for the whole year and they would still sell a lot of units. They don't have any competition for Europe (without UK) and US is also strong. But I hope that they will deliver on the games front for their fanbase with good and innovative new IPs which was the main reason many people bought PS4s for.



Well its not like Zelda and Xenoblade ARENT big, its just they are already expected.
In saying that Quantum Break cant be considered 'big' since it is a delayed game.

Games wise Nintendo already have a nice set up for the 2nd half of the year BUT they do need something to gain a lot of attention to drive sales.

On the other hand Sony definitely need something big announced at E3. Without Uncharted 4 its starting to look like slim pickings.

Sony doesnt need to do anything. Luckily their studios are all making games for PS4

I came in here to post the exact same thing. This word 'need' is popping up on lots of websites and it baffles me. Anyone would think the PS4 is in third place, not first (and by a HUGE margin)


Exactly, the gap is getting bigger every week yet we see articles about how Sony need to need in gear and counteract Microsoft....haha



Hopefully Sony and Nintendo's E3 will be something like this... ^___^

Sony - GoW4, TLoU2, FFXVI exclusive, and if Square doesn't have the balls to do a FFVII remake then FFVII-2 exclusive.
Nintendo - Mario Galaxy 3, FFVI remake, Mario RPG 2, Pokemon RPG Wii U version

Why not crystal chronicals 3?

It's because of this new (and MS driven) obsession with the Christmas period. It was bad enough trying to reduce the 'console wars' to ONE territory but now it's been reduced to ONE territory and TWO months.

The battle of the best FF game of all time have always been between FFVI (SNES) and FFVII (PS1).  So i figured if Nintendo should get a FF game, it should be the most memorable FF game that Nintendo ever had.



Nintendo and Sony don't "need" to do anything. The PS4's not going to be outsold by the XBO and the Wii U's not gonna outsell the XBO, regardless of what they announce.

I expect big reveals from everyone, but not as some reactionary need to outmaneuver some grand XBO line up. If anything, Microsoft needs something big, because they are firmly at a distant second with no hope to regain first, despite having a better line up.

So you are saying in case of remake make VI, ok. Then lets just say they make both crystal chronicals 3 and VI.
