PS5 in 2024: No First Party developed AAA exclusives?

First off if you want to be taken seriously then talking shit in your 2nd paragraph won't help your cause.

•"Halo flopped, red fall flopped, Starfield is meh, and Forza is on the like the 20th game.•

@kvallyx:

How? nobody knows what they will announce. If they won't have anything ready jan to march what's there to talk about. 3rd party company's need a console to make games on. Sony doesn't rely on 3rd party to sell their consoles that's what the business is. You say it like it's a negative thing but that's been like that since video games got created. Both rely on each other.

Ok.

you should grab gamepass and install it on your steam deck. Thats what I did, and its a gamechanger.

SONY'S 2024 First party line up..

*crickets are heard and a tumbleweed slowly rolls by*

Looks like we know why the line up for our PS5 is so sparse. They are losing devs hand over fist :(

Cows got sales to feel good about, so, they have that going for them.

I did see... I'm on the fence until I see it all in action when the game releases. I much prefer the iso-top down view myself so I wasn't keen on the change.

Gotta install windows though right?

Wow.... I can't say it's a bad move. Naughty Dog doesn't seem to have anything to show. Ias a fan of some of their work I'd love a new ip, but if we can't even get a last of us mp game no one really wants out the door then a new ip seems waaaay off.

@TheEroica: if you want to install the games on your deck, then yes you need to get windows.

But there's no need to go that far, that's a bit too much work and not really worth it when the streaming option works well enough as long as you have high speed internet at home. You can install the gamepass app on your steam library and run it from there. It's much easier process and generally works well.

The Avalanche….

And yet PS5 is still beating Xbox 🤔

True

We thank SONY for the avalanche of world class games to play on current gen leading platform, the illustrious PS5...

The Avalanche….

Last I checked , close to 5k games can be played on your current gen leader, PS5 *shrug*

@Star67: Kinda ironic you belittling Forza Horizon for having “20 games”. The latest was called “Forza Horizon 5” which might give you a clue as to how many have been released.

Meanwhile, you also hyped Ratchet and Clank…which is now on game number 17.

Just to illustrate the dry spell of having 12 GaaS under development.

They can't just say deliver some flop and move on, because any other worthwhile GaaS will be avoided out of fear of support being pulled. This means devs will likely be tied down post release regardless if it's a success or not.

The moment those studios eventually do pivot toward the signature 1st party single player experiences, they're starting from scratch, add a few years to it releasing.

In other words, traditional Sony won't be making a return until at least a couple years into their 10th gen consoles.

@Heil68: Shrug all you want. The subject here is 1st party games. There’s been one this year, and there’s one next year if Wolverine gets delayed as is being suggested.

More like a pebble falling off an anthill than an avalanche.

And yet ahead of Xbox..lol

SONY wins,,,awwww yeahhh

@Heil68: Sounds about right ….console sales ahead of actual games? That’s what puts a smile on your face?

Yes :D

So, when Sony release no first party games next year and the console still sells well, what would you attribute that too?

Xbox & PS5 share 95% of the same third-party games, so it can't be that.

Is Wolverine in 2024 or still no official release date?

I’m curious how the gameplay will turn out. I’ve heard it could be similar to the GOW series.

nope sony always delivers. silent hill 2 remake, final fantasy rebirth remake so far in 2024. stellerblade as well.

sony will reveal something soon. been quiet sense activision buy out from xbox.

also ronin team ninja exclusive.

MLB, Concord, Death Stranding 2, Ronin ( 3rd party deal funded by Sony, so, probably owned IP), Lost Souls Aside, Stellar Blade ( also 3rd party deal and owned IP)

But what the hell Xbox peeps knows

So what's the big deal over first-party and third-party or whatever?

At this point, shouldn't it just be about more games? From anywhere?

Feel like all this exclusivity shit is sort of biting them in the ass.

When did that guy become an Xbox peep? 😂😂😂 And clearly you didn’t read my headline 😂😂

@gifford38: You mention third party games and say Sony always delivers 🤣

@TheEroica: Its crazy how high the standards for Sony are held. They're vastly superior to their competition and thats still considered super meh for them.

"Vastly Superior" 😂 C'mon now. What are you really hyped for in 24 for your ps5? It's meh.

Saw they also scaled back on the live service stuff before '25. At the very least, they read the room on that BS.

@TheEroica: For my PS5? Nothing as I exclusively play on PC. But Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth looks really good, Wolverine is solid, and Death Stranding 2 is an extremely strong GOTY potential.

There is nothing interesting coming out on the Switch and there isn't a single Xbox game I can't play on my PC (at twice the graphics and triple the performance)..

but even so, what is there apparently? Stalker 2 and Hellblade 2? zero hype for any of those, but I hope they both are day 1 on GamePass so I can at least play them for free.

Might as well list Helldivers 2 if thats only PC/PS5 but it looks really crap.

The only 2024 games that have me pumped are the Snake Eater remake, Death Stranding 2, GTA 6 and Final Fantasy 7. The first three might not even release until 2025 and the last one is a PS5 exclusive (unfortunately).

So Sony is clearly winning 2024 so far, just like they won 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018...

But my back log is absolutely huge anyway.

There's still a lot of unknowns right now with Sony. For example, we haven't seen Naughty Dog's new title yet, Bend Studio's new title (although they developed Days Gone which was meh), Guerilla Game's new title, Insomiacs' Wolverine title (although I doubt this would be a 2024 release after they just finished Spiderman), not to mention Santa Monica and Sucker Punch.

Sony has a lot under wraps right now. Maybe looking at a mid-gen refresh (PS5 Pro?) with a bunch of new titles to announce?

Perhaps, but last I saw it was still in their big company private event said it was important.

Isn't it insane how Housemarque and especially Blue Point got acquired ages ago, and its like they've completely disappeared? wtf.

@last_lap: yes third games Sony financially pays to develop those games. Some have flopped same not. Sony been delivering since the last 2 years of ps3 life cycle. Ps4 had so many first party games. Now ps5 since launch. 2023 was one of the first years it's been slow. Now people are hating on them. Xbox been drought since last 2 years 360 releasing mediocre games except forza. Heck look at ps3 VS 360 head to head. Then Xbox one VS ps4 huge gap. Just saying.

@Stevo_the_gamer: days gone was not meh. It sold plenty as well. I still kill hordes for fun.

@hardwenzen: Isn't it insane how Housemarque and especially Blue Point got acquired ages ago, and its like they've completely disappeared? wtf.

I can't tell if it's a joke or not. Returnal just came out 2 years ago.

And? Unless they're working on some shitty gaas game that was canned, they should have at lease teased their next project. Instead, just like with Blue Point, these two developer have completely vanished. Its pathetic.

@gifford38: Nah, you can't say Sony is delivering when it's the third party that is next year, not Sony.

This has nothing to do with Xbox, why do you guys run to Xbox when someone criticises Sony? It's automatic response with you guys.

Simple fact is that Sony has no games officially coming in 2024. That's not Sony delivering.

Watch some movies then. Almost the same.

The trend of declining AAA is certainly not limited to Sony. So... why makes this thread then, xbot?

What games did it change? The penny pinching game?

Who else is getting less first party AAA exclusives besides Sony?

As a manticore I want all my systems to have them and grow them like Xbox is.

Answer us that pony.

the bu bu bu Xbox Sony Shlong Slurping Saps are out in force.

PlayStation has no games,and is in last place for gaming!

Good job xbox box studio's and third party have you covered,you are all xbox family now,say thank you to phil 👍

It would be crazy to have nothing announced for 2024. Surely they will have some announcements at the game awards. Whatever happens they will still lead in sales.

Absolutely no concerns. PS5 will still be seeing exclusive content, and it will all be better than the crap Xbox will serve up

I enjoy my PS5, but it's been my least favorite PlayStation.

Do many of you plan on selling your PS5 now?

I'm like Jim Ryan.

I gave up on Sony.

@TheEroica: "Sony is super meh this generation..."

This whole gen is meh.

More than 3 to 1. Oh, well, looks like we'll have to run out and buy the worst system every gen because we'll only have the best exclusives of 2022 and 2023 for a few months of 2024.
