Sony exclusives- too much TBA?

TLHBO

Also with regards to the PS4 TBA means To Be Awesome. It doesn't matter when it releases.

I'd rather have TBD games than no games like MS and the shitty Xbone brand. 10 years of Gears, Halo, Forza repeats got old a long time ago.

this has already been analyzed and sony was the worst. it's not even a discussion to be had

"

• Sony is the worst performer, with only one game released from its E3 2015 press conference in that calendar year – a small indie from Devolver Digital called Ronin.
• Sony also has the worst record for releasing games announced at its conference in the 12-months leading to the next E3, at only 23%"

Fixed it for you:

Xbox One

Dead Rising 4

Raiden V

Below

Crackdown 3

Gigantic

Scalebound

Halo Wars 2

State of Decay

Cities Skylines

Students of Round

Sea of Thieves

Tacoma

Forza 7

Ashen

Cuphead

Astroneer

Phantom Dust

Your list of multiplatform games, The Last Guardian, Gravity Rush 2, Yakuza 0, Kingdom Hearts 2.8, Nioh, Persona 5, Horizon Zero Dawn, NieR Automata, MLB are also a solid list of games. I will be getting 4 of those for sure.

lol

seriously tho xbox one "exclusives", true exclusives, only sunset overdrive and halo 5

not sure if trolling or not but TBA here, at least, means to be announced, as in release dates to be announced

NiOh is also a 10 year development game. it was announced as a PS3 launch window game

ah well my mistake. I dont know anything about that game and i figured it wasnt very popular or relevant, but didnt wanna hurt the guys feelings.

True, and the PS has zero. But it's all good.

It's an industry wide problem in general. Ideally, games should always come out within 6 months to 1 year after being announced. That's a sufficient amount of time to get the word out and get the hype going leading up to launch. Just wait until the game is in the later stages of development before blowing your load to the world, would be cool.

Sony just happens to do it a lot, not only with their 1st party stuff, but also with the 3rd parties they get in bed with. But just about every major pub in this industry has a few examples of this under their belt.

Moving forward I'll no longer be an early adopter for Sony consoles. Seems like 3 to 4 years into a Sony consoles life span is the sweet spot.

The Last Guardian does indeed look like shit but it's a PS4 game it won't be released for any other platform. What it looks like doesn't matter I mean, Halo 5 looks like an Xbox 360 game but it did alright.

@jcrame10:

Yes,TLG and nioh are ten year development games but that doesn't the fact that they have a confirmed release date...

actually I'd say within 12 months. and here is the reason

E3 is the biggest event for announcing games. it's done in June. Ideally it would show off all games coming during the 2016 year with a majority in holiday season (oct to dec) which is 4-6 months. most games don't release during the summer which is basically june, july and august. Those months are usually slow and is useful for releasing indie games and smaller games companies take a chance on. The next big release period is March-May or "spring" as Jan and Feb are usually light months. 90% of big games release in October, November, December, March, April, May or half the months. the other half are slow. by the time E3 rolls around again, should be able to show new games

@kvally: ps4 pro is still ps4. Ps4 = ps4 pro

Xbox one and PC sharing games is not the same thing

PC has been considered it's own platform for decades you can't just suddenly decide it's not cuz 6 months ago Microsoft decided to put every single one of their games on both platforms

And people call PS4 the indie station? Phantom Dust reboot is dead as a doorknob so not sure why that is on your list. And none of those are exclusives.

@dynamitecop: I'm doing same thing I see Xbox fanboys do Sony regarding exclusives. Sony had Street Fighter V, Uncharted 4, MLB The Show 16, No Man's Sky(yeah I know the deal with this) and Ratchet & Clank early this year and The Last Guardian in December yet Sony gets slammed again for not releasing big games during the holiday season. Now Sony is about to have another rush of exclusives early next year while Xbox won't have much at all including multiplats outside of Resident Evil and For Honor. I don't see the "no games" meme thrown around as much as it used to, but still enough to be annoying. If Xbox fanboys would stop the drama about who has games you wouldn't see lists like that tend to hurt feelings! It is FACT that PS4 gets more new games than Xbox One. Whether you like or are interested in those games is immaterial to the point. Just like it is a fact that all Xbox games being on PC now diminishes the value of the Xbox platform.

@StrongBlackVine: wow any more excuses you got?? BTW Phantom is still coming but it's a remaster.

And they are all exclusive if yours are all exclusive.

@jcrame10: you are wrong.

@kvally: When is it coming? Last I heard Microsoft caused the studio that was given the project to shut down because they were too cheap to fund it properly. Who is working on it now?

Well you see the topic and the OP that clearly says "ONLY HORIZON ZERO DAWN HAS A CONFIRMED RELEASE DATE..." But since the TC is a idiot who didn't do his homework and made this thread based on what he want's to believe instead of the facts...

IT'S GOAL POST MOVING TIME!

now, somehow when the TC got called out for making a false statement, the topic shifted from "Sony exclusives- too much TBA?" to "Oh well if a game/s have a long development cycle, their release date doesn't count!"

LEM LOGIC and BACKFIRE topic in full effect.

@StrongBlackVine:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-06-14-phantom-dust-is-getting-a-remaster-next-year

Eh it's something. I definitely had it confused with the remake.

So technically 8 coming in the next 5 months when you include Persona 5 and Nier Autamata. Only one is a remaster wich I didn't include.

@jcrame10: I know you posted this a few months ago but looking at it now, even if Sony is vague about release dates, look at what has come out so far during those months and the quality and variety of them, and look at the xbox one. Historically sony has released a few games over the years while less so on the xbox side wich dumps everything they have at once in oct-dec then runs more or less dry until next oct-dec. So even if they don't often say when, and some times even come late, they do come at a steady pace over the year.
