where are the playstation games that are keeping you from having nothing better to do then troll an xbox forum?Bloodborne is apparently too hard for anyone to play and the order apparently sucked. 95% of games are third party and of the exclusive games that each console brings out,how many of them are actually console movers.Xbox has halo,gears and forza that make people actually buy consoles.And come the holiday season they will have Tomb Raider.Playstation has Uncharted and Gran Turismo.Nothing else that either company has for exclusives makes a significant number of people say "Omg I have to go get a playstation/xbox".Fable doesn't,Infamous doesn't,killzone doesn't,crackdown doesn't etc etc etc. The fact is that the majority of gamers(ie the casual gamer) buy a console simply because they want to play their favorite game which 95% of the time is a third party,and I hate to break it to you,but they all base their purchase on one thing.Which of their friends own a certain console.If most of their friends own a playstation,they are buying a playstation.If their friends own an Xbox,they are buying an xbox. It is only fanboys who care so much about all this first party bs.
And for the record,if your a Playstation fan,you want Xbox to succeed and be great.A successful,competitive Xbox means sony tries that much harder to succeed and compete.Just look at last gen.Xbox got out to this huge lead and then just played it safe,stuck to the games they knew would sell and didn't push the envelope.Sony saw the success of Microsoft and busted there ass to catch up,they pushed the envelope,they put development money into new and exciting games and it worked. Its simple business and is practiced all over the world.Without competition you can make the worst product in history and it will still sell cause its all that's available and you have no reason to make a better product
I agree with the friends statement. I literally got an xbox because several of my friends who own consoles own an xbox one. Getting a console and having no friends to play games with is not much fun.
