exactly!

Except this is the 3rd year.  2013 + 2014 were the super important ones that made PS4 where it is today.

Honestly should have waited to buy a ps4 then. I could, but don't pc game (ps4 is better for my family situation).

My co-workers are all PC gamers... And the only 2 that bought into gen 8 did WiiU. (One additional co-worker just bought the LE Batman ps4.) They all refuse to buy an xb1 though lol. They say it's pointless to buy a console for 3 games.

Buying a console for exclusives is always gonna make you feel starved.

I'm not attacking anyone. I'm a Sony fan that occasionally PC games, used to have all the gameboys, owned a 360, and still thinks the SNES was the best console.

I just think people need to understand their personal tastes do not define a console for everyone... Or even a majority of gamers.

You admitted you don't play 3rd parties on PS4... Which of course would limit the library and asking of use it gets.

A few thoughts, for those saying well if Sony's doing bad then MS and Nintendo blah blah. Look, stop comparing them to each other, and just look at Sony's numbers (weekly). On their own, they aren't exactly stellar, right (probably 'ok')? So, clearly there are ways Sony can improve week to week, month to month. Granted, I think E3 plays a pivotal role in their current strategy, with regards to weekly sales, but, we'll have to wait and see. It's also well known that during the early summer, sales usually slow down, so there's that also.

The other thing is, I think what people mistake for a 'bad patch' is simply a strategy they're employing since the PS4 is doing so well. I think had MS not stumbled out of the gate, and had the Wii U not been in the situation it is (or, if the PS4's sales hadn't been so meteoric...ergo, they've been on top of their competition comfortably), things may have gone much more differently. But, MS and Nintendo gave Sony some breathing room, and they elected to have their heavy hitters work on remasters at first, for the simple purpose of acclimating themselves to the hardware (refining in-house tool sets, building knowledge base, the ICE team still exists, and Mark Cerny's team is apparently also helping studios...), so that actual new content would look/handle that much better. This, of course, is theory. But, it makes sense given how many studios Sony has, and how many of those studios have put out content thus far (and what that content has been), and the fact that 'usually' the first year or two of games, aren't very optimized for the new hardware (this is across all platforms of gaming devices, btw).

I agree 100%. Though I think their point is that some people seem to have a higher need to express their negative opinions than others.

I enjoy my PS4 more than my Wii U but I'm not making threads about it because it's my own and somewhat irrelevant opinion. Why should I try to dictate what other people should think?

Just enjoy your favorite games man and stop making daily threads about how many fucks you give about a certain console (to all, not only you guys). They rarely add anything constructive to the forum.

What bad patch? They are still curve stomping the competition, combined (worldwide sales, of course) First party titles are down this year and even Sony themselves admitted it but there is still worthwhile content (Bloodborne, Infamous Second Son, DriveClub, LBP3, The Last of Us Remastered, FFX/FFX-2 Resmastered, FFXIV, even smaller titles like Transistor, Resogun, Helldivers) . Last gen did not start with a bang either, I'm sure there were even people claiming that Uncharted 2 was finally the first must have for the PS3 way back in 2009.

Ori?

OT: PS4 at the moment gets a lot of releases, and much exclusive games coming in 15/16. It just suffers from the perceives image that it doesn't have any games, an image that has come from some disappointing releases like The Order (I'm just speaking of reviews, I know a lot of people enjoy it) and games that has been pushed to 2016 like Uncharted. They aren't helped by wordings from their own people that they will not have a very strong fall. But fans shouldn't worry, I'm sure the fall will be awesome.

I agree with you. I don't think that's why Sony fans are getting fed up with these threads/articles. If you're going to apply these rules in order to perpetuate this conversation then you HAVE to look at the other console and ask why that rule isn't being applied there too. The PS4 has had far more games to play than the XB1 so AGAIN I ask, why aren't we seeing threads like this asking the question of the XB1? It HAS to be bias. There is NO OTHER explanation.

Sony is the only company to release big exclusives games this year until Splatoon for Wii U.

Bloodborne continues to be the best first-party release for 2015.

They are in the best position so why they need to recover from their good year?

So I don't understand your thread.
