Sony has definitely been killing it this year. In a normal year we’d get 2 AAA major exclusives from them. This year we’ve already gotten GT7 and HFW with GOWR and TLOUR on the way. It’s a very strong year for them.

The games I am interested in:

- Sonic Frontiers
- Star Ocean 6
- Soul Hackers 2
- Valkyrie Elysium
- Final Fantasy XVI

Don't really care for the first party PS exclusives tbh but I will get Valkyrie and FF

If Sony gets Capcom then it would be ok if MS gets MK and also make KI for them.
I'm ok if all MK are removed from PlayStation. They should've stopped making these silly and tasteless games 20 years ago. Couldn't care less about KI, good luck to them.

People can cry all they want but Sony does have great taste with their moneyhats, those SE games are looking damn fine. Their indie selection has been pretty good so far as well, Shuhei Yoshida is doing a great job.
I still remember the insistence everyone had that Shu wanting to work with Indies was a cover and he'd actually been demoted for (insert silly reason here), and yet look at the results. The man clearly has a passion for these games and developers.

Well, to me it still looks like he was demoted/stepped down but it seems to have been for the best. The pressure of being the Head of PlayStation Studios must be crazy.

He did "step down" in that he left his position, but he left it for one he preferred, especially as retirement nears. Much less stressful, and more of a passion project.

Besides, there's nothing to have "demoted" him for in the first place.

He didn't green lit Knack 3, there is at least one reason.

I don’t mean to make another sony cheerleading thread (i do) but i cannot believe how active sony has been this year.

  • Two major acquisitions, Bungie & Haven
  • Shipped multiple AAA first party games, Uncharted Legacy of Theives, Returnal Acension expansion, Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7, MLB The Show 22, The Last of Us Part I, God of War Ragnarok, etc.
  • Multiple 3rd part exclusives, Sifu, Ghostwire Tokyo, Stray, Valkyrie Elysium, etc.
  • Multiple major Firmware upgrades, including VRR and ALLM
  • The revealing of PSVR2 hardware and the first couple of exclusive games
  • All new revamped ps plus service, Extra and Premium tiers which expand to classic games and demo’s
  • Major Share Factory update
  • Multiple State of Plays
And we still have 5 months left and most likely a major showcase:oops:
Don't forget to add in the PC ports. :p

You mean since 2016
You mean since 2009?

Only down year I can think of in this period was 2014 (along with the entire industry) and even then, their 2014 output is much better than the average MS year, not to mention 2022.

edit: Looking at their games released in 2007 and 2008 those were good as well. Seems they are on a roll since pretty much 2007 then.

edit2: Xbox had multiple years that are absolute garbage like 2022, the only consistency you get from them is a Forza game almost every year, what sets 2022 apart is that it didn't have a Forza game. Xbox fans like to say that MS had a better 2013, that notion is completely absurd and just shows their lack of knowledge, MS got completely stomped that year and it was all downhill from their for them.
