Expected backlash came and I don't know why I've assumed a great conversation will come. The Sony head guy stated that they are not happy and know they don't have the great AAA titles like before but do anybody disagree?

I haven't played Bloodbourne but I heard it was great as everything else been lackluster.
Until Dawn was dope as well.

yeah they are and Sony can't understand why nor the competition.
Momentum and perception. It was pretty much settled how this gen was gonna go by E3 2013 and Fall 2013. The PS4 was declared the "better console" (whether true or not), and sold better.

Sony having the stronger performing console let them negotiate deals with third party to nab exclusive marketing/DLC and shyt (Call of Duty, Destiny, Assassin's Creed, Batman, Battlefront) which lead to more sales and more deals, and which leads to more sales and more deals, and so forth.

The PS4 is the Xbox 360 of this gen, except it's crushing it in Europe too. And obviously doing far far better in Japan than anything Xbox.

Because they need vindication for their choice. Simply enjoying their console for what it is isn't enough.

And haters gonna hate. :manny:
I guess it's in their hearts to warn would be owners of PS4 of the great famine that awaits them so they just are doing god's work :wow:

They were saving us!

Intelligent post and thank you. You summed it up perfectly but why do you think Sony management saying they have no AAA?

I have no idea why they keep bringing it up lol. Unless it's to appease the people on neogaf and shyt and be all like "dont worry guys, we know we've been sucking. We will give you hardcore gamers the goods soon, we promise".

Games don't matter no more just sales?
It sells more software. Which means it sells more games. I recognized how serious it was when I just had to shop around and find Rock Band 4 Band In A Box for Xbox One and the stores straight up told me they only get like 1 Xbox One version. And they don't get as much Xbox One stock as PS4 cause PS4 is far more popular. I need it on Xbox One cause my DLC transfers from when I had Rock Band 2 on the 360.
