Are costs and expectations falling in the console space? :s
Why are you listing a mobile title and a PC indie title, that transitioned to mobile before eventually coming to consoles, to illustrate the current market for console games?
How often does a mid-tier title meet success these days on consoles? What kind of production budget and marketing budget is typically needed for a game to succeed on the new systems?
Are you advocating that they all go mobile?
And when people complain about the lack of releases, are they talking about releases like Angry Birds, or are they talking about high production value properties like Batman?

Borderlands isn't a next gen game. But yeah overall the yah isn't that bad just not great for the more traditional next gen consoles first year.

Its only a joke on PS4. Other consoles still have a fairly thriving lineup, that is only expanding.
Sony just dropped the proverbial ball.
I feel for ya Mutes lol

Haha, forreal. The joke is, for all this hype behind sony's machine, the XB1 has the most big games for their early adopters this fall. Sunset Overdrive looks amazing, Forza Horizon is being made in the F5 engine and obviously benefit, and either a Halo 2 anniversary or Halo collection will be remastered. Things are getting troubling for Sony. E3 will make or break alot of minds in the short run, long enough for the XB1 to catch up; especially with a kinectless x1 releasing the same day of the MS conference.
There's a ton of awesome Kickstarter games coming out like Wasteland 2, Pillars of Eternity and stuff.

Nintendo can't be that crazy can they? It's their only big winter game.

Horizon 2 is a cross gen game, I'm talking about next gen only games.
I don't know man, they said 2014 when they announced it, said 2014 again at E3 last year, it's been listed as 2014 in their January investor's briefing and also listed as 2014 in their fiscal year end briefing. I think it's coming in 2014.
well they certainly could have planned a better first year for their new console

Plus Titanfall and infamous, and anything else that came out in the first half of the year.

Not sure if serious...
Did you... not notice I was being sarcastic?

Indeed, but they are esentially being developed as 2 different versions entirely, x1 being created in a legitimate next-gen engine and 360 running off of Forza horizon 1's original engine.
I wouldn't even be surprised if that was somewhat intended. Shadows of Mordor and Arkham Knight are both published by Warner Bros. and looking at Shadow of Mordor it does seem to have a lot of the arkham series in it, so maybe Warner was not even that unhappy about giving rocksteady a few months extra.
We don't know their holiday lineup yet. They could easily have an AAA game under wraps that would soften the blow if Smash gets delayed. SM3DW and DKCTF were revealed at E3 last year, and DK got delayed.
You should probably read his post history.

These publishers realize the average person won't be able to buy every single game coming out next year, right?

Guess I'm one of the few who doesn't mind waiting as I'm sure it will be worth the wait
Evolve, Sunset Overdrive, and Drive Club seem to be the only non cross gen games this Fall.
Exactly!
Wanna bet?

Neither Sony or MS have a system selling exclusive this year. Nintendo might be the only one who has that but the Wii U is beyond hope.
He's going into every thread saying the same shit, conveniently ignoring the lists of PS4 games people are posting. Seems serious enough.

I think there's a good chance some of those will be delayed into next fall.

Almost impossible to do on mobile but I'm guessing he or she is a troll?
EDIT:
Ah thanks. I don't know how or why people do this...just take off the rose colored glasses and contribute to the convo!

Because they're all video games and easily could have sold on consoles if they debuted there? If people didn't want a console version of Minecraft then they would have went and bought one of the dozens of other versions of it on any other platform. But it still sells a shit ton on consoles. So there's obviously a market for these smaller, less polished games on consoles.
I had to use those examples, because none of the bigger companies bother taking the risk anymore. So we don't have examples like that in the current age. Anything I would have mentioned from the past would have just been met with "Yes, well, the market isn't the same anymore." So I had to use the best examples I could from the modern day.
what kind of bet we talking? I'm game

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
People keep posting this list as if it is supposed to be impressive?
Damn You 2015!

No its not. Different team, different engine.
As opposed to Fucking Donkey Kong, Mario Kart Another One, Smash Bros 3DS, not-Kamiya Bayonetta, and Monolith Side Quests? get hype
Destiny, Evil Within, and Evolve are new IPs. Alien Iso is an original game. Also you realize while a lot of the Activision, EA, and Ubisoft franchises themselves are annual, the actual games releasing this year are not? Assassin's Creed Unity and COD have been in development for 3 years. Ditto for Dragon Age, I think.
Console game of your choice. If its out in 2014 Ill buy you whatever. If it gets pushed back to 2015, you buy me whatever.
Im not talking some 200 dollar rarity NES game. Im talking current and last gen titles.
And it's got to be a true formal announcement by Nintendo.

Yup Ms is really killing it on the exclusive front in 2014 with a driving game, and open world game and a remaster of a last gen classic while all Sony has is a driving game, an open world game, and a remaster of a last gen classic. Jokes on you, $ony!!

Am I hearing a hint of the main theme from Arkham City? That theme is by far the best of the series. Gave me goosebumps loading up the game the very first time. Though it obviously is supposed to have that Zimmer sound, that climactic motif surpasses Zimmer's 2 noter for the movie trilogy. Don't recall that it was even used elsewhere in the game. Can't understand why. It gets the hero vibes going.
It was sadly missing in Origins.
Also: 2015. Crap. Surely they already knew this when announced a short few weeks ago. October and Arkham seems like a tradition at this point. Cold nights, a blanket, and Arkham by the fireplace with the witch's moon peeking through the window. Boo
ah well, millions of books to read in the meantime.
