I'm just confused as to where that comparison even comes from lol. They have literally nothing in common other than the fact that that they were launch titles and have excellent graphics.
Ryse was better than Killzone?
Um.
People don't seem to realize that Sony's studios developed for the PS3 right up until the very end of its life cycle and still are, actually. The Last of Us, arguably the best game of the gen/Sony's best release came out just five months before the PS4 launched.
My point: just be patient. If you're a Playstation fan, you know how many quality studios Sony owns all across the world. I mean, just look at all the leaked new Sony IPs we've seen over the past f...
"The PS Plus Instant Games Collection is a huge weak point for Sony right now."
My Xbot in denial senses are tingling.
lol just because you and a bunch of other people still go out and buy Halo every time doesn't mean it's not an overdone series. Three consoles and fifteen years later, and Microsoft is still using it as a crutch. That'd be like if Sony were still riding on the success of Crash Bandicoot...
You keep playing Halo then lol I'll be playing new IPs.
lol excuses? Since when are facts excuses? Many, many people do not want Kinect forced upon them (some do; good for them) and the main reason I've never bought an Xbox is due to lack of exclusives. I'm not shelling out the money so I can play Halo, Gears, Fable, and Forza when I can play like 6 times that many quality exclusives on PS3, not to mention all the new IPs Sony has been announcing for PS4. Microsoft seems to have FINALLY realized that they need news IPs, so if Xbox One gets...
Microsoft fan or not, you have to respect Halo and what it did. Combined with Xbox Live, it revolutionized online multiplayer and the FPS genre.
That being said, all good things must come to an end. Master Chief has been the face of Xbox for three consoles and nearly 15 years now. It's not even made by Bungie anymore, but Microsoft cracks the whip and forces it out over and over because they lack exclusives and they know people will buy it.
Bungie themsel...
Ditch Kinect and make something besides Halo and Gears, then I'll gladly buy one.
Even the Deals With Gold font is bad...
Ah, Destiny. Or as I like to call it: Playstation Halo.
Indeed it does. It baffles me that the "Playstation has no games" misconception has crossed over into this gen from last gen, when it simply isn't true. PS3's library of exclusives was much more versatile and unique than the 360's and, while Phil Spencer will finally bring something besides Halo and Gears to the Xbone, I believe that trend will continue throughout this generation. Sony just has too many quality studios.
Microsoft has been riding Halo since the first Xbox. Gears was basically the only big new IP that Microsoft introduced last gen, as Halo, Fable, and Forza all originated on the first Xbox. You're kidding yourself if you think MS isn't hurting for new IPs, and incoming new Halo and Gears games are evidence of exactly that. Fortunately, Phil Spencer realizes that MS can't rely on their old franchises forever and claims to be bringing new games. Considering MS doesn't have nearly...
Agreed. I'm a big God of War fan and I'll admit that. Same with Uncharted. UC4 will be awesome; especially on PS4's hardware, but I don't think it's really necessary. Every one of Sony's consoles has had its own face: Crash and Spyro led the PS1, Kratos led the PS2, and Drake led the PS3. PS4 needs a new face from preferably a new IP, as does X1. Master Chief has been the face of Xbox for almost 15 years now. Too long.
Does anyone else think Gears and Halo have been overdone? Well, Halo definitely has been and Gears is about to be. I'm not saying they're bad games, but when you consider how many there already are and how many more there will inevitably be, AND the fact that neither franchise is even made by their respective original studio anymore...
lol what games? Halo and Gears? My shelf of 25 PS3 exclusives says otherwise.
lol what's this guy talking about? Sony's top-notch first-party studios are the reason to own a Playstation. The Last of Us, Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, Infamous, Resistance, Motorstorm, Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and many more were all new IPs released last gen by their studios (although Quantic Dream and Insomniac are technically second-party studios).
One of the only big new IPs Microsoft introduced last gen was Gears, as Halo, Forza, and Fable all originated ...
It would be REALLY nice if they released it on the day of E3 and made it free with Plus to kind of make up for the delay...or is it already F2P?
Touche.
Both consoles had pretty weak launch lineups, if we're honest.
