Sony's Approach To Early 2017 Is Admirable & Bold

Sean Hallifay of GameRaven.com writes:

''For Sony’s Playstation 4, the early stages of 2017 are ridiculously solid. Regardless of where you stand on their console or practices, three exclusives in two months is a bold move. The current generation of systems is not exactly famed for producing quality exclusives on a regular basis.''

[UCForce]

It is good year for Sony.

[Why o why]

This year for Sony smashes any 'perfect storm' . . .call it a 12 month hurricane

By luck or design Sony have lined up one of the best and most diverse line-ups that I can think of by a solitary manufacturer

[RpgSama]

They forgot Gravity Rush 2 and Tales of Berseria, it's just crazy how many great games in these first few months of the year.

[G20WLY]

^ And Nier coming very soon too!

Ladies and gents, we could be entering another golden age of gaming...

[RpgSama]

@G20WLY

You're right, Nier is also coming out this month, wow, so many games, not nearly enough time and money to buy and enjoy them all.

[DarXyde]

And Kingdom Hearts 2.8

[RpgSama]

@DarXyde

That one too, there are so many great exclusives that I have a difficult time remembering them all, and we are talking about January and February, not the Christmas season, just an incredible time to be a gamer, specially if you own a Ps4.

[bouzebbal]

Insane, minimum 1 hit a month and the trend continues.
Next month is one of the best in the past 10 years: Horizon,Zelda, NieR,kingdom Hearts connection, Mass Effect, MvC3

[DARKKENT]

Personally someone at sony needs to do a better job at spacing out exclusives

It's ridiculous Gravity Rush 2 and Tales of Berseria,nioh, Yakuza 0, Nier horizon all in two months?

Then we have droughts ...would have made much more sense releasing a couple in the spring, just space out the games a bit and that way maximize sales aswell.. Sony have top loaded the first half of the year before and left us with nothing at the end.

[Chevalier]

" It's ridiculous Gravity Rush 2 and Tales of Berseria,nioh, Yakuza 0, Nier horizon all in two months? "

Wtf? How is that Sony's fault? Tales of Berseria is published by Bandai Namco, Yakuza 0 is by Sega, Nioh is by Tecmo Koei. Sony has no control over their publishing schedule as they are 3rd party developers.

As for frontoading the year, why would it matter? There are so many exclusives coming to PS4 throughout this year.

[andrewsquall]

And it was only 2 months ago they delghted gamers with a great show and reveals like Uncharted The Lost Legacy, Crash N Sanity Remakea and of course The Last of Us Part 2. This alone built up buzz for sales of PS4 consoles and thats excluding the past 2 months of GOTY contenders released.

You can only imagine the massive decrease there is on Xbone sales right now and this will continue for months because of the knowledge of a newer console that is coming out in about 8 months time. It is only more damaging that nobody can 100 % confirm it is going to enhance or be a replacement for the current Xbone console models on the market.

[DarXyde]

DARKKENT,

You realize you need not buy all of these titles immediately, right? If anything, buying them all now is only going to produce a backlog, which will take time to get through. With a game like Ni Oh released, I think you'll be busy for a bit. Then, there's Nier, which should be not too long. Then you've got an open works game like Horizon. If you're a completionist the way I try to be, you'll be very busy. I'm still trying to get everything in Gravity Rush 2. Haven't started KH yet. Then Persona 5.

I don't think anyone with a Playstation will be victims of a drought.

[Eonjay]

Indeed. I'm actually overwhelmed. But the benefit here is that if I take my time, I will have more than enough content for the whole year and maybe even beyond. I feel like we are entering the point in the gen where we have so much games that I am gonna be able to really clean up next holiday when everything goes on sale. And my backlog includes games haven't even purchased yet lol.

[Kurisu]

You pretty much said what I wanted to say. I've not even got around to getting Resident Evil VII or Gravity Rush 2 yet because money. Next pay day is all about ordering Horizon Zero Dawn though so they'll have to wait!

[starchild]

I have to face the fact I'm probably never going to be able to play all the games that appeal to me. That makes me sad.

But at least we're getting great games at every turn.

[bujasem_89]

@starchild the feels...

[ShadowKnight]

It's a good generation and era for Sony as well.

[XanderZane]

It's a good years for me and gamers everywhere. NiOh tomorrow.

[Ceaser9857361]

ucforce

It is good year for Sony.

Indeed , The Last Guardian, Gravity Rush 2, Yakuza 0 and Nioh all above 80s ... 4 PS4 exclusives back to back are doing great.. Next Horizon Zero dawn, cant wait

[VoodooProject]

All these great games from Sony and exclusive yet they are only a 8 billion net worth company while Microsoft is a 380 billion dollar net worth company. Why is Microsoft dominating the business game and leaving Sony in the dust. So strange.

[Overload]

PlayStation is making games for people who don't need to shoot a gun.

- TLG
- GR2
- Yakuza 0
- Tales
- Ni-Oh
- Horizon

None are focused on gun combat.

[UCForce]

You forgot Gravity Rush 2.

[Neonridr]

I think that is what "GR2" is.

[Gazondaily]

Lol what? Is this a new thing now? No guns? How does this matter unless this is some societal issue you have and are anti-use of digital guns? If not, then the point is beyond silly. I didn't see anyone complain against the use of guns until today.

Also, the games might have guns in the game but the mechanics sure involve shooting them:

1. TLG- Trico could fire projectiles
2. Horizon- You fire a bow and arrow- firing projectiles
3. GR2- You fire projectiles
4. NI Oh- you can use guns

[PixelGateUk]

I think its more people trying to say there's a variety rather than just all shooters

[Overload]

I love games with guns, I also like highly produced games that don't have guns. Are we going to pretend TLG is a shooter because Trico shoots lighting out?

[Gazondaily]

Seems like a long winded way of saying there's variety beyond shooters.

[Eonjay]

Yes you are right but I think they meant games where you are just running and gunning.

[Ninver]

Pew pew, dude bro, rage quit, pew pew, power rangers pew pew lol. Pathetic.

Sony is destroying the one trick pony competition and rightfully so.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Projectiles =/= Shooter

Sorry Septic,
Not today!

[Gazondaily]

He didn't say shooter. He said guns.

@Xxkurap- sorry. Not today

[CapitalGamerNZ]

It seems that most people form their perception of something via social media or forums, which we all know is just a pool of misinformation. To suggest the Xbox is a one trick pony or is relegated to "shooters" is plain hyperbole. However, why the Xbox is even a topic of discussion in something that is clearly a cause for celebration for all of those who own a PS4, including myself, is beyond me. Seriously, can people not go a single day without taking a dig at something they don't own or intend on owning?!?

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Soo that makes you comment even more stupid because none of that projectiles use guns to take off

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Good ol' Septic

[Gazondaily]

Fml...read my comment properly then come back to me. At least Eonjay got it....

[trooper_]

You should learn to read between the lines. Sony has been known for *variety*, something of which their closest competition lacks.

[Realms]

@septic

Why so defensive? Trigger much, there is plenty of good shooters if that's what you like and not nearly enough of games like TLG, GR2, Nioh and Horizon.

[MetalProxy]

Lol hey septic you should join the Olympics. You're great a verbal gymnastics. Xbox team is very proud of you

[G20WLY]

^@CapitalGamerNZ, I'm afraid your moral highground was washed away by a flood of irony, given that NOT A SINGLE PERSON said "Xbox" or made it a topic of discussion before you.

They were skirting around the word to spare the feelings of the delicate. Not enough it seems lol

[Gazondaily]

It's not that I'm good at verbal gymnastics. It's that I'm able to call out someone when they are wrong.

😊

[SpaceRanger]

Chill out lol he meant as no FPS games.

Don't think I've ever seen someone get their flustered over a simple comment. Way overboard lol

[MRMagoo123]

if you want to be a smart arse maybe read his full comment before jumping the gun, here's one line to negate your entire rant "None are focused on gun combat." see the word "focused" then the "on gun combat" ........now read what you said again then you might not feel so smart , as none of those games "focus" on "gun combat" even if they have guns in it is not a "focus" smh ....

[Featuring_Dante]

i know you're one of those neutral people on their highhorse, but you couldn't hide your hate towards sony with this statement.

[Bathyj]

God Septic, you're just being deliberately obtuse. You knew exactly what he meant but chose to act like you didn't, take it the wrong way, and use it as an excuse to drop a rant , and then act like the fan boys are all ganging up on you. I'd previously given you more credit then that.

Oh and since we're calling out people for being wrong, 3 of the 4 games you mentioned don't have guns even if you think projectiles mean they do. A bow is not a gun. A lightening tail is not a gun. Throwing debris is not a gun. I guess every professional athlete needs a gun licence just to throw a ball in your world.

And this is classic.
"Seems like a long winded way of saying there's variety beyond shooters."
His post wasn't as long as yours, which seemed like a long winded way to say Xbox has more than shooters.

[tyasia0]

Wow Septic this comment is way out of left field.

You must be dense if you didn't understand what he was talking about... Games that aren't shooters....

Just because a persons prefers puzzle games doesn't mean it's because of a societal issue. Geez man get real. A lot of people prefer games that aren't shooters and it has nothing to do with any kind of societal issue.

But I'll partially forgive you because the world has become so divided that people constantly see agendas and false truths everywhere It's hard to get past that type of thought process these days.

[DARKKENT]

Lol you can feel the frustration building up in septic

What xbox game are you playing by the way?

[LP-Eleven]

Eonjay isn't the only one that got it. The problem is, there wasn't a need for it.

[Dark_Knightmare2]

You really call grabbing crates,boxes etc in stasis and throwing them shooting yeah I'm going to have to call bullcrap on that

[Gazondaily]

@Bathyj

"And this is classic.
"Seems like a long winded way of saying there's variety beyond shooters."
His post wasn't as long as yours, which seemed like a long winded way to say Xbox has more than shooters."

Sorry where did I mention Xbox?

[Bathyj]

You didnt say the word Xbox, but youre a lot more transparent than you think you are. I mean thats what you were getting at right? Someone says Playstation is more than shooters. You take umbrage. Have a rant. Clearly annoyed because hes implying another console is mainly about shooters. Gee I wonder who that could be.

And doesnt change the fact your point about TLG, Horizon and GR2 were feeble at best, desperate at worst.

[Gazondaily]

@Bathyj

Had you actually read my second comment on here you'd see that I said it was an odd way to spell out ps as more variety. Something which I've said before on here.

"Someone says Playstation is more than shooters. You take umbrage. "

He didn't say shooters though did he? That's why I was the one that made the point about shooters.

Can't seem to see past your nose when it comes to your loyalty for all things playstation. I have on this very site said the xbox needs way more but you just inferred xbox defence from that. The point about guns was obvious. I directly addressed it.

But carry on as you were. In full attack of Xbox...

[Bathyj]

Sorry where did I attack Xbox?

Youre the one whos made a mountain out of this molehill. Just left a bag of sh*t in the middle of the room and this stand back and watch everyone screw up their noses. This whole thread of 30 odd replies is your doing. Congrats, you must be so proud. If Im wrong however and it wasnt your intention at all, Im sorry, you must be so contrite.

[Gazondaily]

"Sorry where did I attack Xbox?'

"You didnt say the word Xbox, but youre a lot more transparent than you think you are."

Here you go. Two of your own quotes. Let's see if you can grasp the point I'm making now. Whilst you're at it, try assessing the transparency of your mate Overload.

[XanderZane]

Halo Wars 2, Sea of Thieves, Forza Horizon 3, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, ARMs, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Bomberman R, Phantom Dust aren't shooters. Seems everyone is making games where you don't need to shoot a gun.

@spectre_
There's variety on ever game console. You just have to look.

[andrewsquall]

Stop getting so upset. You are talking as if a vast majority of Xboners WON'T be picking up Ghost Recon Badlands (when they most certainly will). I guarantee sales of that will be higher because of the lack of shooters since BF1 and Titanfall 2, or damn all games on the console for that matter. Hell, the sales of that on Xbone will probably beat PS4 sales or be close just like with the mediocre The Division.

No wonder your attitude to Scalebound being cancelled was a dismissive "'yeah but who cared about that game anway?" retort. Because it wasn't a shooter lol.

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

* * * "It's not that I'm good at verbal gymnastics. It's that I'm able to call out someone when they are wrong" * * *

If you take his comment at face value what are you calling out that is wrong?

"PlayStation is making games for people who don't need to shoot a gun" - - - Does this say "no guns"? Is this a complaint about the use of guns? All the sentence says is that gun aren't needed/a necessity for some of the games PlayStation is putting out for people that like those kind of games.

"None are focused on gun combat." - - - Again is "no guns" said here? Is this a complaint about their existence? No it's just saying that for the games listed, gun combat is not the focus.

Like I said, feel free to point out the 'wrong' that you're calling out. Obviously given his post history he's taking a jab a Xbox, but you apparently didn't take issue with that.

[UltraNova]

You just had too didnt you? Well the train is derailed, well done.

[RAM0N]

Drawn to death just got a release date for April 4. A shooter I'm looking forward to.

[TheGoodestBoi]

Omg you serious? That's an indie I've really been looking forward to

[Kurisu]

Is it still a free to play game? If so I'll have to give it a go.

[Overload]

I know, I submitted that story.

[Kaneki-Ken]

It cost $20 now since the creator abandon the free to play. I guess paying $20 may guaranteed free maps, other stuff.

[DemonChicken]

Also persona 5 is also in april

[Dragonscale]

Sorry overload but NiOH does have guns.

[Overload]

Yes, but it isn't that isn't a focus of that game, it's not a shooter. Horizon is the only one on the list that is somewhat of a shooter, but it's combat doesn't focus on guns either, although it does have them.

[fromchildren]

"for people who don't need**** to shoot a gun. "
Just quoting him.

Do you know what "don't need" means? You can but you don't have to is what it basically means.
My English is so bad but even I know that much.

[Stevonidas]

Isn't Hot Shots also coming later this year?

[andrewsquall]

Yes but still no exact date yet. :( I actually cant wait for that, forget all other golf games. :)

[shammgod]

Persona 5

[DragonDDark]

This guy gets it!

[Overload]

Persona 5 and Horizon are my most anticipated games of 2017. My cut off point was Horizon on what I posted.

I'm right there with you. Although people will argue that is has a gun. Lol.

[LP-Eleven]

Amazing that you have to deal with a certain someone who attacks you for a mere opinion. Nothing else to focus on but your comment about "a gun".

Either way, thank you for pointing this out, Overload. It's why I've stuck by this brand since its birth!

[G20WLY]

Some people just like act like idiots to start a fight and ruin the fun of others. Certain people are notorious for it, but mods do nothing about it for some reason.

The line-up is incredibly diverse, which was Overload's point. It's accurate, but some people can't handle the truth.

[Last_Boss]

You forgot Nier & Kingdom Hearts.

[fromchildren]

Tales is not exclusive and is not from sony.

[Chevalier]

" Tales is not exclusive and is not from sony"

Yazuza and Nioh are mentioned in the article and neither are by Sony.

Yakuza is Sega
Nioh is Tecmo Koei

Kind of invalidates your comment.

If it were only about Sony games the article missed Gravity Rush 2 which just came out and MLB comes out March.

Also Kingdom Hearts 2.8 by Square Enix, Digimon by Bandai Namco also just came out.

[fromchildren]

Tales of berseria is on PC too, no?

[destroyerz1]

Gran Turismo Sport
Dreams
MLB The Show 17
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix
WipeOut Remaster

[andibandit]

I love shooters and so do alot of other people, not really sure how this is a positive thing.

[Segata]

Nier Automata

[rezzah]

Persona 5

[chrisx]

Ms needs to look at sony and learn how to run a console gaming hardware/software system. This whole year is stacked with great exclusives for Ps4

[PixelGateUk]

To be fair, MS don't have the Japanese market on their side, so they tend to only make games suited for the West, which effects their libary's variety. But that's partly their own fault

[AcidDvl]

What games? lmao

[King_Lothric]

a very poor excuse

[PixelGateUk]

@King

It's not an excuse, it's a fact x0x0x0

[CrimsonPheonix]

Pixelgates statement is correct people here are retarded.

[oasdada]

Its actually an excuse.. if u look at it not focusing on japan gives them more resources for western games.. but where are they?

[moegooner88]

Why does everyone keep forgetting about Gravity Rush 2 :/. Such an underrated series.

[PixelGateUk]

Like it says in the post, the brand power wasnt as strong. Still a awesome series, just a little under the radar

[Chevalier]

Kingdom Hearts 2.8, Digimon and Tales of Berseria seem pretty recognizable and they weren't on the list at all either.

[PixelGateUk]

@ Next time you see a TV advert or advert placement on youtube, printed media across both Ameircan and Europe throw it across. We're talking mainstream everyday coverage here. Yakzuo 0 was a word of mouth success, which benefited from youtube/social media/twitch coverage of its craziness, drawing new fans in. The games you've mentioned, in the grand scheme of things, are not all that 'main stream' outside of Japan and anime fans. I mean Kingdom Hearts bizarre numbering confuses people to the point of comedy

Not saying their bad games, but they're simply not on the same level in terms of familiar with the masses.

[Chevalier]

" Not saying their bad games, but they're simply not on the same level in terms of familiar with the masses."

I really think your reasoning is suspect. I work at EB Games and if you were to rank them on sales all the games we mentioned sell about the same. In fact Tales of Berseria has been sold out in my store multiple times. But based on sales Berseria, Yakuza, Gravity Rush 2, Digimon and Kingdom Hearts all sell well. Kingdom Hearts is also outselling Yakuza 0. This Yakuza has definitely been the best selling of the last 4 games. I was here when we got Yakuza 3, 4 and The End.

[PixelGateUk]

@ Chaevalier

Who the fudge are EB Games? Oz retail store? Ok so now you're comparing a rather small island to me talking globally. I see

[Chevalier]

" Who the fudge are EB Games? Oz retail store? Ok so now you're comparing a rather small island to me talking globally. I see"

This is how I know your an idiot. EB Games is part of Gamestop. If you think a couple BILLION dollar sales in videogames annually is 'small', then seriously what do you know? We are by far the biggest market share in game sales annually. You thinking you know better is laughable. Yeah our company is global.

[PixelGateUk]

'' We are by far the biggest market share in game sales annually. You thinking you know better is laughable. Yeah our company is global.''

'WE ARE LEGION'

Dude drop you attitude, EB games is not known in the UK (where i'm from, kinda hinted in the name)
You're literally the stereotypical dude with a anime avatar. Gan away

[Darkfist_Flames]

^This^

[Relientk77]

Playing Tales of Beseria now it's great, and getting Horizon Zero Dawn day one

Fantastic start to the year

[MRMagoo123]

I can't believe how close horizon is and I'm getting a ps4 pro on Monday next week I haven't been this excited about playing a game in a long while, last game I couldn't wait for was civilization 6 but that was on pc

[Elda]

Love you Sony Playstation! This year playing my PS4 Pro will be truly fun!

[Gamist2dot0]

It's Japan making a comeback. :)

[PhoenixUp]

Japan never left

[Featuring_Dante]

You're right!
Most of the memorable games from last gen are japanese. vanquish, catherine, valkyria chronicles and so on.

[Mikefizzled]

I think the author is giving Sony a little too much of others credit. Yakuza and Nioh aren't exclusive through partnerships or exclusivity deals. They're exclusive because of the marketshare that Sony worked for.

[PixelGateUk]

Still on a Sony system also 'They're exclusive because of the marketshare that Sony worked for.' Exactly, making use of that market share. They could have just thought 'nah only release these games in Japan' but nope, they went into other territories too.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Sony is publishing both in the west, so yeah they get credit. It is not just about being 1st party. These games wouldn't be outside of Japan if it weren't for them

[FullmetalRoyale]

Though did pick up the publishing rights to Nioh, sometime in November, I get what you mean. Persona isn't Sony made either, but it's a franchise(along with Yakuza) that will keep PlayStation as my main system of choice.

[G20WLY]

You just undid your own argument with the final four words of your comment. I'm impressed!

[MRMagoo123]

it makes life easier for all of us when they do that 😂

[G20WLY]

I know right? It seems MikeFizzledOut.. Lol

[Ninver]

It's normal. Why put all your eggs in one basket? Some of them are bound to FALL and crack. Spread them out evenly accross the board to keep demand strong throughout the year.

[Last_Boss]

Their stride is high. This IS the PS2 era all over again.

[CrimsonWing69]

Dude call me a fanboy or whatever, but Sony has been nailing it. Yakuza 0, Gravity Rush 2, Horizon, and Nier... I mean how can anyone deny thy aren't delivering? Hell, Persona 5 is nearing us, too.

[Chaos_Order]

Mate, noticing that the PS4 has far, far more on offer than the competition doesn't make you a fanboy. It makes you a realist.

Last gen the 360 gave the PS3 a real run for its money. It was a battle. Both systems were great. This gen, it's a curb stomp.

[shammgod]

Yeah, the beginning of this year (basically thru June) has put me into a never ending backlog. Time for me to come to terms with, I just don't have the time to keep up. I need a Gamecation.

[sullynathan]

There's a lot of Playstation exclusives this year not just in the beginning. Wonder when GOW and TLOU will get a release date

[TXIDarkAvenger]

I'm gonna hold off on buying games after Nioh or Sony is gonna have me broke lol. It's like every week or so there is a really well received PS4 game coming out.

[MilkMan]

As it should be with ALL companies in this biz, but unfortunately some of them can't get out to the hole they buried themselves into.
That's why Sony just rules the roost, even though I wish it wasn't that way. I'd say competition is a good thing, but I'm not even sure Sony is competing with anyone at this point.

[MRMagoo123]

well they don't seem to be letting off the steam even with no competition

[Strange]

And people forget Nier Automata by Platinum coming up in Feb.

[sullynathan]

My most hyped game

[TheGoodestBoi]

Seriously Sony stahp! . I've still got Tales of Berseria, TLG, Gravity a rush 2 and Yakuza Zero to get through

[YAO-BLING]

adding salt onto the wounds of you know who..

[Kurisu]

I'm currently playing a last gen RPG on "you know who's". It's a great game that I missed because I've never owned a "you know who's" console before until this gen. In terms of "new" games, though, it just can't compete with the amount coming out on PS4.

[YAO-BLING]

"OH"

[Kurisu]

More "LO" than "OH" :p

[Night99]

Sony? This games have nothing to do with Sony. Ni Oh and Yakuza 3rd party games but it was always like this on playstation consoles the only interesting games were never developed by the platformholder, Playstation was always about 3rd party content.

[Featuring_Dante]

ni-oh is published by sony in the west, and sony helped fund Yakuza's localization.

[Dark_Knightmare2]

What fantasy world do you live in. Sony in the last twenty years has released the most exclusives that also rated the highest compared to the competition yet you say otherwise. What's really scary is it sounds like you believe your own dribble

[Night99]

I never bought a Playstation for any Sony games, they just never really made any interesting games and never had good IP. No one buys Playstation because of Sony you buy PS because of Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Fifa or Resident Evil it always was an will be like this. Sony could entirely stop making games and no one even would notice it thats just a fact.

[AntiZeal0t]

I don't remember a time where I've wanted to buy so many games in the first 3 months of the year.

[StormLegend]

And when March comes you'll see it again with Nier Automata.

[sk8ofmnd]

Sony ftw! The success the ps4 is having looks like the ps2 days all over again. Its a good year to be a ps4 owner.

[MRMagoo123]

I feel every year is a good year to own a ps4 in all honesty , it's just this year is filled to the rim with amazing games

[PhoenixUp]

Three exclusives? Did you forget about Gravity Rush 2, KH2.8, and Tales of Berseria

[PixelGateUk]

''While Microsoft has recently come off cancelling an exclusive, Sony is in the middle of their run. January ushered in the release of Gravity Run 2. ''

Literally in the first paragraph

[Youngindy21]

Enjoy it PS4 fanboys. Cus when Scorpio hits nobody will even be talking about the PS4.

[Goldby]

we'll be too busy playing games like Wild, Hellblade, Spiderman, god of War (the real GoW) Dreams, oh and VR too

[Ron_Danger]

Ummm you do realize the PS4 will be talked about just as much with all the articles that will come out comparing which console has better checker board rendering on multiplats? It's the same rinse and repeat journalism cycle that happens every new console launch.

And this article is about exclusives. You'll be able to count Scorpio's exclusives this year on one hand; you can't even do that with the amount of exclusives hitting PS4 in the spring alone.

[sk8ofmnd]

The biggest difference is that sony will have ps4 exclusives by the bucketload while ms gets the same shit every year with a few new ip's sprinkled on top

[tyasia0]

"You always were a kidder Steve"

http://68.media.tumblr.com/...

[objdadon]

Eveyone won't be talking because they'll be busy playing actual games ont the ps4

[BIGBOSS08]

Sure.. in your xbox fanboy imagination. The reality will be the opposite. Playstation is only going to increase its lead and popularity over xbox because of upcoming games. Scorpio will be a beast of a machine in power but Microsoft just don't know what they're doing. They need fresh games but I just KNOW all they gonna bring to Scorpio is halo 6, gears 5 and a bunch of forza games. Microsoft is so predictable.

[BigGamersSmallTalk]

Bold? It's what they do every year. They put out the delayed games from the previous year in the early part of the year.

[Stogz]

This story hurts you doesn't it? Sorry you have no exclusives for a long, long while. Guess we should get used to seeing you around here a lot huh?

[MRMagoo123]

did you even read what you wrote ? If they do it every year then what's the problem? that means every year is packed with games.

such a lazy trolling attempt , you should buy a ps4 and stop being so bitter it's just sad and we all feel sorry for you. I think I'll just report you and put you on ignore have a great day , if you can cheer up Xbox will get an exclusive some time.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Better than cancelling games and never get to play them.

[tyasia0]

I know right I'm looking forward to Fable Legends... I mean Scalebound... err maybe Adrift will be fun... never mind I'll just play some Project Spark.

[sin7279]

Dreams!

[Cohagen420]

But its literally happening every year, and you'll be waiting for a piece of machinery with no games :D

[Lime123]

So far this year:

Gravity Rush 2 - metascore 81
Yakuza O - 84
Tales of Berseria - 78
Kingdom Hearts 2.8 - 78
Nioh - 87

VS

?

HAHAHA. I had a feeling I'd find this middle-aged sod here, mopping up his own denial rivers of salt.

You don't even realise you're destroying your own argument in admitting that Sony has a fantastic, diverse lineup of games every year including the start of it. Remind me when your next "exclusive" game is available again. And then... the one after that? 😂

[il-JumperMT]

We are still Febuary and I still have 4 games backlog from just this year all, exclusives..

[Trash_Report]

Amazing games one after another. I really don't have time to play them all but I'm ready for more PSVR content though, not small titles but give me big ones like RE7.

[richyque]

Come on, xboxone has halo wars 2 to hold them over for a few years when it
ever that comes out.

Got my pro my psvr just got my 65 Sammy 4k ks8500. TLG amazing. Gr2 talk about colors popping off the screen wow. Can't wait for horizon even YouTube videos look great on the tv. And that just what Sony has delivered themselves and it's only early February. Oh ai forgot to mention how awesome re7 is in vr playstation is absolutely killing it

[King_Lothric]

Very impressive and to think that Shu said there are a lot of unannounced games they are working on.

No matter your console affiliation, you have to admit no one in the market is doing it as good as Sony.

[MonChiChi]

yep, got yakuza 0, Ni Oh tomorrow then Horizon down the road.

[kungfuian]

It's a good time to be a PS4 ower! Since Dec we've got-

TLG
Let it Die
Gravity Rush 2
Yakuza 0
RE 7- VR Exclusive (Amazing in VR, loved it)
Nioh
Nier
Horizon
Persona 5
MLB the Show
Drawn to Death
plus a ton more indi's, some of which are really great games, to numerous to list
+
high quality non-exclusives like-
Dark Souls DLC
Yooka-Laylee
Mass Effect
Southpark
Little Nightmares (on my personal list)

And the list of upcoming high quality games and exclusives is massive! God of War, Spider Man, Uncharted DLC (which looks to be just shy of a full game!), Gran Tourismo Sport, Wild, Hellblade, Detroid, Dreams, Death Stranding, Far Point, Matterfall, Wipeout, The Last of Us 2, Crash, Knack 2, Pyre, Days Gone, etc. etc.

[Shadowolf]

That is an insane list of PS4 exclusives, aside from the non-exclusive titles. Sony seems to be placing some serious pressure on Microsoft and their new holiday console launch.

[jznrpg]

Its going to take me 2 years to play all of this years games maybe more. I like to complete games and sometimes platinum and there are many worthy of my effort. Nier soon and Persona and whatever else im not thinking of

[DillyDilly]

They should save some stuff for Summer & kill the Summer Drought but nope

[jznrpg]

Buy them in summer duh, cant complete everything by then with exlusives and multiplats and other games coming

[spanner]

Sony have always been bold with games.
It's a gaming console

[Donnie81]

It is nice to have some good releases this early in the year. Only bad thing is I'm still trying to clean up my fall backlog and bam here comes more great games. No complaints though, I'm so ready for Ni-oh and then I'm gonna devour Horizon Zero Dawn. It really is a good time to own a ps4. This system is really hitting its stride

[QUIMICOMORTAL]

Only problem I see for PS4 lineup this year, is that this first exclusives are very close to each other.
