PS4 Stays Ahead With Excellent Exclusives - 2018 Year In Review | Gamespot video
- Thread starter Equanimity
- Start date
But how can it be the second best exclusive if it's not even the best superhero exclusive? Hmmmmm...
It's been an incredible year for Sony's first party output, pretty insane to think they've published SotC, GoW, Detroit, Spider-Man and Astrobot all in the same year.
Hell no, that's TLoU:R.

Great video, PS4 had a fantastic year.

That other thread is really dumb. Platform with highly reviewed exclusive core/vr games in 2018? Meh.
I know it's sarcasm but man that's how it feels to me in regards to Sony 3rd-person action/adventure games.
To be fair though I'm not throwing shade. I'm just not that into AAA gaming.
EDIT:
To give an example though;
I LOVE Mundane Vehicle Sims. So if someone said Euro Truck Simulator 2 looks just like Farming Simulator, I'd be all like, "Oh hell no!" but I'd understand why someone not into the sim sub-genre would think so.
Same with people who suggest the Civilization and Europa Universalis strat games look alike.
User Warned: System Wars
Excellent exclusives? But PS4 owners were missing out on a regularly expanded co-op pirate game and a cool open-world racing game? :)
How does God of War, Spiderman and Shado of the Colossus feels the same? This doesn't make any sense.
2018 was much stronger than 2017 for me for sure. Glad to see the strong line up getting the props it deserves.
edit: in hindsight it was kind of console warish so i deleted my comment.
See edit above.
I wouldn't throw SoC in there, but Spidey, GoW, Horizon, Infamous: SS, and Uncharted 4 all look the same to me.
I feel sorry that you weren't able to derive enough enjoyment from these fantastic games which look and play completely differently from each other.
3 of the 5 are open world and the other 2 are wide-linear games, so we can't even say they all have the same structure/model in common either.
That this article probably feels more at home on a Nintendo console ?

But but detroit was a dud.
Edit: just to be clear, this is a reference to kotaku article that called detroit a dud. i see the other guy got warned for system wars for being sarcastic about what kotaku said. i personally think detroit is amazing. dont ban me!!

Does The Lord of the Rings look like Spider-Man: Homecoming or Mission Impossible to you?
I guess they must've missed all those towers in God of War, Shadow of the Colossus, Detroit and Astro Bot.
Good wrap up of the year, far more tied to reality than Kotaku's one.
Indeed.
I understand Aaron. I remember swinging from buildings as Aloy and fighting robot animals as Spider-Man. Detroit is an excellent dissection of the discrimination of Colossi and watching the Wanderer solving Android crimes was pretty excellent and they all felt the same.

Don't forget Yakuza, it's a third person game too. Watching Kiryu fight off the infected in Boston was a tear jerker of a game but still felt like I was any other third person game.
Tell it like it is.
Everything felt familiar when I started sprinting with Joel and he turned neon pink.
Indeed, amazing set of games for sure... On enjoying a lot my Switch as well Diablo 3 on the go is very addictive
Infamous and Spidey look completely different despite both being superhero games. Art direction is what differentiates a game's looks. I can't imagine looking at this:
And this:
And going whoa, which game is which?
The scene where Connor first meets Agro in Shadow of the Zero Dawn is still my favorite.
Honestly couldn't tell you. Did the main character shave his head for Uncharted 4?
And on top of exclusives to they are killing it with services, it's just gaming forums and industry pundits that don't see it: https://www.google.com/amp/s/comicb...station-now-xbox-game-pass-ea-access-revenue/
I think Days Gone will be similar to PS Now, resetera will ignore it but it'll kill in sales

Ehh...it's more of a feeling than anything else.
Kinda like how military shooters can look pretty interchangeable to the untrained eye.
Like I said, not throwing shade. I fully understand that character action games just aren't my thing.
Either way, I'm happy that Sony fans are happy.
Sorry for the derail.

This year games wise for PS4 was insanely good on so many fronts in addition to the 2 big hits, God of War and Spider-Man. It's even more insane that it feels like the best is yet to come with (hopefully next year for at least 2 of them) The Last of Us 2, Death Stranding, Dreams, Ghost of Tsushima.
Maybe the best year yet for PS4. I mean there were just so many high quality exclusives:
God of War
Spider-Man
Detroit: Become Human
Shadow of the Colossus
Astro Bot Rescue Mission
Firewall Zero Hour
The Persistence
Tetris Effect
I mean you don't get much better than that.

That's a pretty broad stroke to paint different games and genres, only one of them is even close to being a character action game (GoW). How is a third person shooter (Uncharted) a character action game?
Why'd you post pictures of Astro Bot and Detroit, though? Those 2 look the same, they aren't helping your argument.Infamous and Spidey look completely different despite both being superhero games. Art direction is what differentiates a game's looks. I can't imagine looking at this:
