GT and forza are niche games, big niches but still niches.

halo isnt, it made for casuals and has a lot of fans.

and uncharted wouldnt stand a chance against mgs, the quality of mgs games is just so much higher. ND needs a quite year to sell alot of games.

and TR is exclusive to xbox so yes its a m$ game even if they just payed for it.

Where to start with this dire post. You realize the "niche" franchise GT has outsold the halo franchise? Your uncharted and ND comments in this thread are just... well... yeah. Made me laugh if nothing else keep it up

racing is big in europe, but its not for casuals, its not made with casuals in mind and its not marketed with casuals in mind.

fifa isnt niche because football is religion in europe, and its the biggest by far.

ND games just sell well in slow years, the writting and the gameplay could never stand against realy good games(last year and this year would be realy bad for uncharted 4 or 0815zombieshooter 2 because we had some realy great 3rd party games.) they are like big action movies, badly written full of cliches,easy to disgest and heavly marketed.  and sells doesnt mean quality, or django unchained would be alot worse than any transformers movie.

This has got to be one of the worst posts I've seen on here in a while. I mean do you actually believe this garbage you shit on the screen here?


yes i was wrong, fifa is niche, but well the football niche is fuckn huge in europe.

beeing niche is nothing bad, for console maker its a good move to make a good game for a niche, players who prefer niche games are way more likely to buy a console just for one game.

(sry im to stupid to quote this again, but its from you too.)"And "ND games only sell well in slow years", like 2013 that had GTA V or 2011 that had Skyrim and Battlefield 3"

do you realy think a zombieshooter or a actionadventure with plot in the quality of the last indianer jones movie competes with a hookerbeating simulator, a rpg or a bad mpshooter with a story with the quality of american battleship?

Niche means:

 

"Relating to or aimed at a small specialized group or market"

 

Now, tell me. How in the hell the BIGGEST sport in the world is niche?

So the argument in the op is saying that Sony can depend on third party titles to keep the sales going while Microsoft can't?

The main reason why Sony is kicking Microsoft's ass this generation is because Microsoft dropped the ball numerous times before and after launch. Sony won by making the least amount of mistakes.

According to that brilliant definition literally every game is niche.

Oh and aren't you a special little snowflake, "look at me guys, I think ND makes bad games and everyone else that likes them (which includes critics and millions of consumers) is just stupid and if it wasn't for these arbritrary reasons I've set then their games wouldn't sell at all".

And if you think that those games didn't compete with NDs games then maybe you can, in your utter brilliance, tell us what it would be that comes out this year that Uncharted 4 wouldn't be able to compete with, apparently it's not something like Fallout 4 (an RPG), Halo 5 or Battlefront (mp shooter). What is it then? Rise of the Tomb Raider? That's just completely laughable when comparing the interest each of these games have garnered up to this point.

Best thing is that you say a ND game wouldn't have been able to compete last year, when surprise, surprise TLOU sold 3.7 million copies last year.

Let me be absolutely frank here, as I don't think your comment deserves any kind of sugarcoating, your comment was absolute bollocks.

Both divisions are idiots. Why even pay for self developed games at all when 3rd parties are bringing great games to you platform for free!! Think, people!

in those cases 99% of the profit goes to 3rd party too... think men!

And that 1% of 3rd party software is the vast majority of console maker's profits.
