More to the point, any game starting production NOW will likely not release till ps5, x2 as the take 3+ years so no point in creating for 1x as it will be obsolete before games come.
I travelled to the future to clue you all in on the sales.
The ps5 launches Nov 15th 2019 and by that time the ps4 has sold 109million ps4s
at that time there was 46 million xbox1s sold (as of the end of 2019 no successor to the xbox has released, though they may just be biding their time)
the switch by that time has sold 41 million switches and still has momentum. No successor as of 2019 but that makes sense.
Nonstop exclusives incoming... to everywhere but xbox

if you have 50 employees (coders, artists etc) and they each make 70K a year (some make much more some less depending on if they are grunts or the heads of their departments but for simplicity sake lets round it to 70)
70,000x50=3.5mil a year
4 years x 3.5mil= 14mil
now you got voice actors, music, writers, game testers, and so much more. It is easy to imagine 30 million for a modest scope game. You get into big open worlds and online modes added etc that can easi...
I was talking about quality, comparisons of quality are limited to "apples and apples" I can compare the quality of Coca Cola to that of a bowl full of urine even though they are 2 different drinks
the great thing about Sony is they fund tons of diverse games, this one doesn't appeal to you great, you still got GOW and Spiderman and Days Gone and Dreams all coming this year.
30-50 seems the norm for Sony first party games, those terrible games by EA, Activision, etc that cost 100+mil only cost that because of very poor management, often having segmented groups in different countries working on the same game and are just rushing things out instead of planning a route and not having any of the pitfalls that come with rushing (like changing the entire genre to force in microtransations or online).
Quantic break can suck it. Single player games are TOO expensive, well Detroit looks a million times better than your game and cost less. It should easily pass the 1.5 million lifetime it would need to be profitable
was the article written by scrooge? I watched it and loved it, not gunna buy it but still love that Nintendo has that imagination and innocence about them. So at least it does the brand good keeping people seeing them as a wacky inventor rather than a group of suits pushing Mountain Dew and Taco Bell...
as a Sony and Nintendo fanboy who is very critical of xbox here is what it would take. They announce the creation of no less than 5 new studios (or acquire 5 new ones). they talk about OH WE ARE MAKING GAMES, yet we all know they have only enough studios to develop the barest amount of content over the course of a generation. Sony has something like 30 teams when you count their strong second party groups like quatic dreams and slap hans. Until Microsoft starts building their studios up they ...

Have no idea, but while in the time machine I played some techmo bowl, team ninja won

Yeah Spiderman is so big that Sony even used the Spiderman font for the PS3 to help get people to buy it when it was 600$.
I will never buy anything with the Konami name on it. The company should rot in hell.

Yep great times, focused on the future not the past. Enjoy playing the same old games, I'll look forward to tons of NEW games under Ryan's lead
What reality we live in where cheaters get arrested? Those of us when used a game genie better keep an eye out
Yet one company is worth 20billion and one is billions in debt... I'll let you figure out which seeing as you like looking up numbers
I love how you got a disagree. Karma dictates that whoever that was will be accused of murder and see why due process is needed
