Gamers didnt buy it. Sony actually had great first party support for it.
- uncharted, gravity rush, killzone, soul sacrifice, resistance, freedom wars, oretsiku(?), unit 13, mod nation racers, tearaway, wipeout 2048
- great third party support with games that are still being ported to ps4 and switch, and now getting praise.
- fantastic Japanese exclusives and indies catalog
- backwards compatibility with PSP and ps1.
I could name some of my favo...
No. Brand minded individuals, fanboyism, and group mind think has made it almost impossible to rate a game on it's own merits, without being compared to what is thought to be the best in the genre. It goes for any game nowadays.
Theres many , but what studio would give the attention, and respect a franchise needs to be successful? The order, uncharted, killzone, are a few Sony ones I would like to see. But, sometimes they are better as games.
Nah. As life gets more complicated, I find myself with less and less time to game, and have to limit myself to the game system that covers all bases. That is ps4 at the moment. The portability thing is less important, as usually, I'm the one that needs to pay attention to my surroundings when my family and I are out and about. Good for completionists, or younger folk with disposable income I suppose.
