well if you choose to ignore the vita/ps3 games..then ye i guess it does look lackluster... But since i dont choose to ignore them..breaking the SW rule... this year is probably on par with some of sonys other years.campzor

That's how I think, but I always tend to get shot down by "the rules."

Last I checked, Sony makes games for Vita and PS3. If they have a game for both it's still their exclusive. But the logic I come across here is, "lol good for you, but this ain't company wars." So, y'know, whatever.

I, like an overwhelming majority of the population, do not care about the Vita. If Sony couldn't handle launching enough games to satisfy both platforms than they should have waited until they could.

Like when though? for all we know next year PS4 and 720 could be released and that would be a horrible time to release, and it doesnt really matter about how many people care about the Vita, the point is thats the reason for lack of PS3 support this year

Now would have been a good time to launch the Vita. But the Vita is irrelevant in the context of this thread. The Ps3 had a terrible year. Using the Vita as a qualifier does not make this year suck any less for the PS3

You say the Vita is irrelevent to this thread yet that is the sole reason why PS3 has has lacked the same support as usual this year, I dont know what more you want to know.

It is irrelevant because it does not change the fact that this year was terrible. Sony had supported the PSP for years alongside the PS2 and PS3 and it was not a problem to keep up with releasing games on their main console.

It's been the driest year since I got my slim in '09, by a bunch. Really looking forward to 2013 though.getyeryayasout
2013 looks great. I am just extremely letdown this year by PS3's offerings. If I didn't have my PS3 I don't know what I would be playing.

You mean worst in terms of exclusives. Don't forget the problems PS3 had with multiplats back in 06/07.

Awful year all around including ps3 exclusives, i bought more multiplats from prevoius years than this. Tales of graces, me3, starhawk, fifa, journey Is mgs hd 2012?

What's sad is the PS3's worst year is pretty much on par if not better then the 360 every single year.

Well with the threat of both CoD and Halo 4 coming this holiday as well as a lineup of popular multiplatform releases, do you think it'd be a good idea to release any AAA budget title in this holiday window? Sure as hell didn't work out for them last year with their steller lineup of exclusive titles which got overshadowed by other different games. Pushing them to early 2013 is in most ways for the best while using this holiday season on low budget titles, collections, and system bundles. Also, they need to push the Vita hard too.

Yeah this hasn't been the best year for PS3, next year is looking really good though.

2013:

GoW:A

TLOU

Beyond: Two Souls

Sly 4

Puppeteer

Last Gaurdian (I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt)

Ni no Kuni

I feel like I am missing something, point is the PS3 may not have had the best year in 2012, but 2013 is looking great.

And thankfully 2012 has had a lot of great multiplats, AC3 is leading the pack for me. 360 has had a better year in terms of exclusives, but not by much. It's been a lackluster year for almost every platform in 2012. I don't really like pulling the multiplat card, but there are a lot of good 3rd party games that are out or are on the way. I'm not suffering from the lack of games, the only thing that has been suffering has been my wallet :P

Generally we do not count PSN titles since they are not counted in the metagame. I don't necessarily agree with it, but rules are rules.
