Twisted Metal has survived up until the PS3, could return on the PS4 hopefully!
You are bang on though, Ninty & M$ have a few must have exclusives that define the systems. Sony has big exclusives of that calibre in GT, GoW & ND games but they also have so much more like LBP, KZ, Resistance, Ratchet & Clank etc.
One thing PS fans don't have to worry about is a shortage of good or great exclusive games, they will come.
Oh IGN, do one will you.
From what I've played my top 5 PS3 exclusives are:
1. God of War III
2. The Last of Us
3. LittleBigPlanet
4. Uncharted 2
5. Heavy Rain
Nathan Drake iconic? Not at all, I suppose he's fairly popular amongst forum dwelling gamers but not at all in real life. He's easily replaceable.
He's not in the league of Kratos or Master chief and obviously no character comes close to Mario.
God of War 3, 2 & GoS
The Last of Us
Mass Effect 1, 2 & 3
Red Dead Redemption
Bioshock
Casltevania: Lords of Shadow
Gears of War
Alan Wake
Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
Huge Sony/PS fan here, but no, it doesn't come close.
Perhaps the obligatory forest level in UC5 will come closer.
I'm not buying a PS4 without a God of War game...
Tbh even though it's pretty evil of me, I'd rather the author of this list died than GoW, which is my most beloved series in gaming.
Mediocre reviews =/= Mediocre games.
You can't assume something is universally 'mediocre' based on what 50-100 critics write for big money-making publications.
It's all about what gamers think, in the case of all those games they've all sold very well so obviously a lot of people do like them and are recommending them to friends & family.
Don't you get frustrated that you just can't refrain from trolling onlin...
SCE Santa Monica Studio just acted as publisher, they've said time and time again they've had absolutely no involvement with the games development.
No it absolutely doesn't, have your eyes checked and your brain scanned.
If you are using Vgchartz estimates, don't. Not only is UC3 one of the most bundled games of all time but combining all SKUs for Tomb Raider and taking into account that a vast majority of PC games would download it, there's not a chance UC3 sold more.
Kratos is my favourite videogame character ever, long live lord Kratos! I can't wait for his inevitable return in GoW4.
Must buy for any God of War fan... Wish someone would buy it for me though haha
God of War III, Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption, Bioshock 1, 2 & Infinite and the Mass Effect Trilogy.
God of War III.
Kratos man.
Whilst The Last of Us is one of my favourite games ever made, I'm not excited for Uncharted 4 and feel ambivalent to the series.
The only worthwhile UC is UC2, very good game. UC1 was decent, nothing special. UC3 was good but just a carbon copy of UC2 except with less polish, weaker story/characters and just less soul.
I think just because UC4 has to follow TLoU, critics are going to give it an extra hard time, might score between 87-92 on review aggregat...
Hyperbolic, nonsensical morons should keep their foolish thoughts inside their heads.
Great idea if you want to kill the franchise! /s
Kratos IS God of War, he's not and should not go anywhere.
Disagree almost entirely with this video, introducing new deities and creatures from another (Egyptian) mythology and travelling to locations outside of Greece would be cool though.
So was The Last of Us not a big enough deal to be a big HOLIDAY game for ps3?
If anything, TLoU proved summer is a great time to launch a game so I wouldn't dismiss the possibility of a July or Q3 release.
Why are gamers such a whiny bunch of bitches? Look at all this crap people are writing... losers.
