Yet they can spend all this money on 3rd party deals?


Given their massive dommination of MS, those deals are dirt cheap.  Its in the best intreast of both sony and whatever 3rd party to sign the deal.

Sony does not care about winning a month or two by losing massive cash especially since they are still killing the xbox world wide and thats what they care about.    Teh big picture not one marlet, who they still will lead at the end of the year.  MS focusing on only NA is in PS4s best intrest, they get to steam roll the world with no opposition.  They are letting MS foolishly blow their load on one market and are giving them breatheing roon to do it there.

Sony could have easily crushed the xbox one in NA, but its would been stupid on their part to motivate MS into kick starting another gen early like the 7th.  Theya re giving ms roon for small success to keep going keep the futile fight going ratehr then cutting loses and trying agian.  This whoel gen Sony has played MS for fools, they are still doing it.  And reaping the benefits of it, Spencer took over a sinking ship best he can do is keep it floating.

I know that, which is why i'm pointing out that a lot of people saying that Sony won E3 just because they announced those 3 games are already forgetting that they are releasing in 2016-2017, same with Uncharted and Horizon.

Sony's whole E3 2015 conference was basically a "You should wait to buy a PS4 until 2017 at least so that way all these games we showed you will actually be out" while Microsoft gave a good reason for why you should buy their console in 2015 and not wait. 

Third party games are mainly what sell, and Song has marketing deals with 3 of the biggest.  

Sony was focusing on the future, while MS was focusing on the fall.  

Sony has CoD, Battlefront, a few third party titles.  Those 2 games right there, a big deal by themselves, and together are likely more important than anything that MS showed, at least to the big market.  

So for most people, this show was why they'd get a PS4 this fall. 

you are doing it wrong, multiplatform games aren't system seller, they don't count.  multiplatform games selling better on ps4 is just a coincidence that has no correlation whatsoever to ps4 sales.
