People are actually excited for Until Dawn? How sad, that game has six out of ten written all over it. Just watch Sinister, it's the same thing. lol

They're smart in a way. These systems sell regardless. Why would they spend money on anything really, you don't need games or anything. Just a good subscription fee and a box.
I don't see MS doing any better to be honest. Enjoy. I'm going to love this E3.

Back to spraying ink on hotpants.

It would be pretty sad if they don't have at least one ORIGINAL game this holiday. Their top 2 games seem to be remasters or remakes: Tearaway unfolded and God of War 3. Yes, they have No Man's Sky, Disgaea 5 and a few other more niche games which combine to add some extra variety. But they really needed an Uncharted type game.

That being said, when you look at the total of the year it's not like anyone else is really cranking them out either. Xbox 1 has no decent exclusives for almost the entire year - until the last quarter, and Wii-U almost has no games AT ALL the entire year. Of course it doesn't help that the Order ended up being worse than mediocre, if that game was at least "good" - combined with Bloodborne, then PS4 would be looking good for the year still. But with the Order ended up being bad, Bloodborne has to stand on it's own.

It's actually sad that this gen basically come down to whether 1 or 2 games fit into a release window or not. The whole gen has been sparse for all consoles. If Uncharted made into 4Q Sony still would have won the year easily (most likely). Without Uncharted, they lose. There's just so few major exclusives anymore.

I'm pretty sure Sony will show of games that have already been announced at previous events and give more screen time to indies and try to make them look like exclusives. I'm sure it will work considered a ton of playstation fanboys think Ark: Survival evolved was a PS4 exclusive without bothering to do a single lick of research not to mention believing the footage is from PS4.

That doesn't mean they have nothing coming out. Everyone has gone to the Rapture, Rime, Wander, Tearaway, Hellblade, No Man's Sky, Tomorrow Children, and more are slated to be out this year. Also, by fall Planetside 2 will likely at least be in open beta if not officially released. All this means is Sony's big name first party titles aren't out this year since Ratchet and Uncharted got delayed to early 2016.

That just gives MS a chance to announce yet another Halo and another Forza game to release two months after Halo 7, I mean Halo 5, and Forza 6.

That's putting it likely.

Bloodborne is the only thing they've put out in 5 months (that actually matters).

And here MS putting out a 3rd Forza released and 2nd Halo release this gen. Thats the backbone of this grand first party fall of theirs as usual. Yeah way to go. That's all anyone was looking for...more Halo and more Forza. The only IPs being milked worse than Halo and Forza are COD, Assassin's Creed, and Mario. All MS has to do is release a Halo and Forza game and everyone pretends they all the sudden hit pay dirt. haha

Halo and Forza didn't get me to buy an Xbox. They didn't get me to buy a 360. They won't get me to buy a XB1. Over 10 years of those IPs hasn't changed the fact I don't like them. Sony could literally not put a single exclusive out the rest of the year, and I wouldn't care. I'm gonna be on Star Wars Battlefront regardless.

I will say MS better hope this fall is absolutely huge for them. PS4 has been dusting XB1 without the benefit of any of their big name IPs out. That's all going to change in early 2016 when Uncharted 4 rolls out with Ratchet and Clank coming in April/May time frame. It will pretty much be game over at that point.

I've played mine more than probably all of my PS3 last gen. I've already doubled up trophies and got my first platinum, then 2 after that.
