At least there is some experimentation in PS 1st party games, diversity, wackiness, some actual risk taken. ABZU is the new game from the Journey creators. Wild looks incredible (taking over animals spirits), Horizon (where are the robot dinosaurs on xbox), MLB (where is the baseball on xbox), No Man Sky, TLOU, Uncharted 4.

At a time when Xbox needs more studios, more first party to show they are committed to gaming, they are shuttering studios and cancelling games. Where would Playstation be if they behaved similarly last gen?

A quote from one of my favourite films that microsoft should consider;

“Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. You must look into that storm and shout as you did in Rome. Do your worst, for I will do mine! Then the fates will know you as we know you”
― Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

I dont wanna derail this thread too much. But I believe the same exclusives on X1 would do extremely well on PS4. Better than most PS4 exclusives.

While people say those exclusives arent good or whatever, its actually the same content PS4 users would love to have.

I can see Forza Horizon doing good numbers, Killer Instinct might get some of the old snes crowd buying. Don't know how halo and gears would do, really depends...

i think it's down to the overall approach though, Sony serve lots of niche areas whereas Xbox are after the same crowd all the 3rd parties are after, creating a conflict of interest. This was highlighted well last holiday season.
