Sadly this is why competition is good. Because Sony are basically dominating this gen, they will try to get as much as money while they still look like the "savior" of gaming after MS E3 2013.
Had Sony been behind or MS be really close I doubt they would have behave as such and give PS3 owners or Xbox 360 Owners and incentive to buy the PS4. (upgrade to PS4 and keep you PSN games)
As of now PS4 is selling itself by just being available. Sony will bring the games and ...

Even if this game was available on the PS4 this holiday it would have still had bad sales. The launch windows is just that bad. Sony was smart to "delay" Uncharted 4 and have it release outside of those holidays blockbusters.
Next year when it comes to PS4 and PC it will still sell bad. I only hope that the franchise doesn't die because reading comments on forums, the game has a good fan base.
Ok it is really time to not allow some articles to be posted here
This is no bigger than Xbox One Backward Compatibility. People are not going to buy a PS4 to play PS2 games. Is it nice to have?? Absolutely amazing to have. But is that a system seller?? I don't think so. The system already sold 30.2 million at freaking $400 without ever mentioning PS2 BC. Games, brand recognition are selling PS4.

I think you are wrong here. MS have really bleed money and loose a lot of money on the first 10 years of the Xbox division, but now they are in a position to get that money back. For the past 4-5 years, (if I recall correctly, I might still be wrong), the division has finally started to bring them money. I am not sure if they got back all the money they lost but they are surely on their way. So I don't see them droping Xbox anytime soon.
Good for you. Enjoy your three consoles and don't let N4G get you into that console war where each side have some "you would not believe type of fanboys".
Next year, gamers owning PS4 or Xbox One will have a blast with their console. The line up is crazy for both. It will be Xbox One chance to get rid of that "shooter box" repution. Hope Xbox One owners buy into the diversity Xbox One will offer them next year.
MS have the last laugh!!!
Have MS even have their first laugh this gen yet?? Not sure cause they keep moving goal post just to find a "specific win".
Whenever EA comes with their quarter report they make so much money. But we knows that how bad they do business. Yet they manage to be successful with our money. It is like they know who to fool and when to fool them.
I hope whatever classic PS2 game I have already bought on the PS3 are available for free for me when this launch.
This gen is going to be a long one again. Halo 5 just came out and Halo 6 will take another 3 years. So I am pretty sure MS will not launch a new Halo game right before they launch their new console.
As for the PS4 The last of Us 2 is still 3 years away and no date yet for Gran Turismo.
This is going to be a long gen. Cause both company are going for a powerfull console and both company are going for a not so expensive console, because an expensive console can cost them the g...
Best JRPG I have played in the past 5-6 years. Now I am playing Persona 3, then I m going for 2. I can't believe as a big RPG fan, I didn't know about this serie.
@eyeDevour, I have felt a big letdown with the JRPG from last gen, but this game gave me such a satisfaction.
If one console have ever got more slack this gen it is surely Xbox One. I don't know what is this author talking about...
Sony is all about business and attrackting PS3 and Xbox 360 players to make the jump. Those remasters barely cost Sony any money. And it seems like also they are setting themselves for The last of Us 2 and the next God of War making sure most of the hase knows about the games when their next installment launch. And that can boost sale a lot for those software.
It is all good for their business but as a PS4 owner from launch, I am feeling a little bit left out. But 2016 line up is sha...
Is it just me or have Sony deals been looking less and less attractive lately?
Well the good side of this is that I will have time to finish the games on my backlog. It will probably take a while cause most of those games are RPGs.
You know when I am going to he mad, is when I hear that this game is selling millions over millions. Why ??? because freaking EA knows how to get away with bad product, microtransaction, lack of content, and crazy season pass.
Other publishers would not get away with those, but I still have no idea how they manage to get away with stuff like that
I really hate to be the one to tell you: told you so, but look at that post:

I hope you add one more bubble, I would have love hearing you disagreeing with me again... smh.
Not it is not 65,000 on Xbox One alone. Numbers have been update to be 57,000 combining both Xbox One and Xbox 360 where Xbox One has 85% of the share. So more like 50,000 max on Xbox One.
And UK is not just one country for Xbox One, it represent like 10-15 % of Xbox One market share while the US represent like 50-60% of Xbox One market. So taking that number from UK and multiply it between 6-10 gives you the range of what the numbers might look worlwide. So the game is probably sitti...
@Yi Long it is because in US they have strong competition against MS and Xbox One. While in Europe they are completely dominating. That is why sometimes competition is good
