Sony still has all their PS3 studios that made those awesome games (largest first party stable in the biz) and said they'll bring 20 exclusives in the first year 12 of which are new IP. A man would remind a user that Sony said they wouldn't reveal games until they were closer to release and so we see few announcements other than launch titles and early next year titles at E3 and Gamescom as opposed to MS who announced things like Halo 5 and Sunset Overdrive which are very early in development and not coming till late next year at the earliest. A man would expect something at VGAs

I don't think people have anything thing to worry about in terms of Sony exclusives, this generation even at the end has shown they have the talented studios behind them.

The reason Sony bounced back so well since last gen was because of how bad they messed up. They came through the door with their junk swinging around like they were the best gaming platform ever. Launched the PS3 at $600 dollars with a small launch line up, by the first year it got a price drop. They literally had been served a piece of humble pie for being so foolish in thinking that their dedicated fans wouldn't turn the other cheek with their console.

Well the fans did, most of them flocked to Xbox 360 because it came out an entire year earlier and cheaper. Microsoft dropped support for the original Xbox so fast that even Xbox fans had to buy a 360. By the time Sony launched the PS3 Xbox 360 was already in a lot of homes.

It took them a while to recover, but they are doing it right this time, and I hope that they don't go the same way Microsoft did, limit their exclusive IPs, sell off some (Mass Effect), and then think they are top dog again.

As long as they remain humble they will get the crowd back. Microsoft took Sonys approach with Xbox One, High launch price,offering features you don't need (Kinect), and the idea that a limited launch lineup would sway buyers. (Both Ryse and DR3 were originally 360 games).

I want both companies to thrive, because put all the fanboy bullish aside, if both companies are thriving that will only benefit us as gamers, cause they will be making better games to compete with each other.

If one looses horribly to the other, then eventually the top dog starts slacking a bit and taking the easy more money making route.

Lets be honest raising prices doesn't do that when no one's buying it. I imagine the profit it greater selling 10 times more at a lower price

Whatever you say buddy, let's all wear the tinfoil hats.

LMFAO Your comment alone says a lot more about you than anything else. When has one game not selling 10 million copies made a company raise the prices of their console? Then Xbox would be costing $5000 by now lol. You remind of the crazy drug addicts on the street rambling on about conspiracies. xD You sure you don't need a hug, buddy?

Its not the war. Its the RAM issue.

I think MS were and still are the richer company. They tried to acquire Sega back in the day (and considered doing so again more recently), they obviously bought exclusivity to Halo which was originally shown as a Mac title. I don’t think as a company MS can claim the moral high ground here. It’s a wilful lack of self awareness.

Of course Sony would try exactly the same if they had the resources, but when the PS2 dominated the industry was in a much healthier place with an abundance of great third parties.

This has been a depressing generation as far as first party decisions are concerned. The fact we are debating business plans rather than which game is better is a sad reflection of the state of things.

The world would be better?

MS was definitely a bad influence on gaming.

But first party studios aren't enough. They only make up a small portion of the industry. Without 3rd party there would be no industry for Microsoft or sony.Developing games take time and money and sometimes you gotta make moves to stay competitive.

Then why be so emotional and continue to talk about it. Xbox will never die be ause it stays in so many people's head.

lmao!!!!
