Mediocre sequels, remasters, crap new IP (The Order, Ryse, Knack..... ... .. .), more sequels, and yet more sequels - that is this gen so far in a nutshell.

This.

At this point last gen we had exciting new IP like Bioshock, Wii Sports, Uncharted, Gears of War, Assassin's Creed...

Destiny, Nintendo Land, Infamous Second Son, The Order: 1886 and Watch Dogs are the successor of those title, in the same order.... like them?



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Infamous is not a new IP, and Nintendoland is debateable as its really just a compilation of pre-existing ones.

The Order, Watch Dogs, and Destiny I consider trash, along with Wonderful 101, Driveclub, Knack, Titanfall, and Ryse.

Forgot about Infamous.

Do you consider Wonderful 101 trash?

I wasn't defending the 8th gen, more like just comparing how afwul has been developing so far.

To be honest, yeah. It's controls, pacing, art style, voice acting, pretty much everything about it irritated me.

Killer Instinct wasn't a new IP, and I'm hesitant to call Shadow of Mordor one (though it was cool) since there have been plenty of Lord of the Rings games before.

I haven't played Splatoon yet so I can't comment on that. I wouldn't call Sunset Overdrive or Bloodborne trash, but I don't consider them in the same league as Bioshock or Uncharted.
