Sony: "No concerns" about any lack of PS4 software this Holiday
- Thread starter shinobi602
- Start date
For me personally, Mario Maker is a huge game. But I've always dreamed of making my own Mario levels or playing others custom made ones.

Well any exclusive Sony release this Fall/xmas will be completely over shadowed by the above two games.
Why would studios bother to release games when going up against them?
Exclusives dont sell consoles, 3rd party games do so why would Sony be worried?
They have Battlefront, COD, Assassins Creed, Fifa and whtever else do come out this year

The Uncharted Trilogy is likely, too.
I imagine they'll try riding this holiday out on Battlefront and the Star Wars hype generated by a new trilogy. I'm also betting that alone will be enough. NMS looks amazing to me, and after Witcher 3 it's my most anticipated game, but that's not enough for mass market appeal. Battlefront marketing should do the trick. I can see another 1080p/900p boasting session on the way...
I'm sure we'll see God of War and maybe even The Last Guardian at E3, but there's no chance of a big Sony exclusive being announced next month and released in another five. Any AAA games announced will be for next year at the earliest, and they'll have to hope they make a good enough impression that gamers will be happy to pick up a PS4 this holiday and enjoy the smaller games like Tearaway, Uncharted Remastered, and No Man's Sky, and be happy to wait for the big hitters next year.
Good point. And they both come out within a week of each other.

Oh yeah.
For me Nintendo's year has been decent if we are getting just Yoshi, Mario Maker, MP10, and MvDK.
It will be interesting to see what holiday game Nintendo will try to pull out since Zelda is delayed. They need the Black Friday sales.
Personally for me, if we see Persona 5 hit PS4 this holiday, I will be happy.

I forgot Tearaway was supposed to be out this year! If that's a Christmas game, and gets some decent marketing, then that's brilliant. Best game on handhelds I've played this gen by a mile.
Hope there's more stuff announced at E3 too though. But still, I'd take Tearaway over Halo any day of the week.

This E3 is gonna be good.
Not ashamed, but nothing to scream to the heavens about. It's a really interesting game, but really short and extremely easy. It's a good looking casual platformer.

I dunno. I'm not expecting a whole lot even after E3. The PS4 is going to sell super well anyway and I'm sure Sony knows that.

Tearaway is one of the best games I've played in years. Sorry if it isn't AAA enough for you
Seriously. Tearaway and NMS is more than enough for me, especially if it releases alongside Persona 5 and Star Wars Battlefront. Leading up to that, we'll have Metal Gear Solid 5 in September, and Amplitude, Dragon Quest Heroes and Rime somewhere in 2015.

As I haven't actually played Tearaway and love the look of No Mans Sky i'm not concerned either
Though I do hope Sony pull the genie out the bag at E3.

Sony worried? haha they dont need to be, they can sit down and relax for the rest of the generation. Don´t want them to but still 
I'm personally not worried one bit as I have plenty of multiplatform games and digital games I look forward to this year on the system, much more so than any other system.
But the thing is, realistically, they can't possibly drop bombs on E3 for games that will come a few months later can they?

I'm not sure why Tearaway is getting beat up on so much in this thread. Fucking bizarre.
Like this awful nonsense.

The Japan releases are looking good with Dragon Quest Heroes and Disgaea 5 confirmed. Persona 5 would be the icing on the cake.
I am expecting more than last year personally from each company except maybe Nintendo because Smash was a huge release.

This. We will have enough to to play. Let the first party's get their games right and give it to us when they are ready

Seriously. Without announcing anything else, there's already several hundred dollars worth of PS4 games I want before the end of the year.
No. I also don't think name dropping the remake of a niche Vita game—regardless of its quality—as an indication of what they have in store for the holiday season is indicative of anything grand.

Lol at people shitting on Tearaway, have you guys even played it?
It says plenty.
Those expecting Megatons or unannounced titles (outside of possible old gen ports) for xmas 15 to be revealed at E3 are just setting themselves up for disappointment.
Sony have (for whatever reason) really mismanaged their studios during this console transition, and as a platform holder there are zero excuse for that.
Yeeeahh I'm not too confident about Sony this year. Not that I don't expect them to ride it out fairly well considering how PS4 still isn't stopping in it's performance.
I can sympathize with the statement but this is still funny to me to read considering a lot of people on GAF wouldn't stop criticizing Nintendo for using the same excuse.

The fact of the matter is that with the big 3rd party games coming out around Christmas, it really won't matter. Destiny sold more PS4's than any exclusive has sold for the PS4 or the Xbone. With the big marketing deal on Battlefront and maybe even COD, they really don't need huge exclusives. Having big exclusives in the spring of 16 maybe even work out much better for them. Sell more PS4's during a slower time of year and more room for the exclusives not having to go against a COD or Star Wars.
Well if those two games are games we should be excited for I am concerned also.

As much as it can be annoying for some PS4 owners, Sony doesn't need exclusives this holiday to sell PS4. It is selling as a de-facto console for multiplatform releases. That is, business wise, the best thing they could hope for. Now the question is: Is it to put their exclusives release for the months were no big release is happening... or are we set to see less 1st party output from them ? The former is more likely than the later though.

The problem with Nintendo was that they had no third party support to fill in the gaps. PS4 will have all the big 3rd party games this Christmas season.
