Why is everyone worried about first parties next year, did you all instantly forget Paris? I mean we have:
February: Gravity rusg remastered
March: Uncharted 4, Mlb 16
April: Ratchet and Clank
At the start of the next year. Then we have Horizon, Last guardian, Gravity rush 2, quite possibly Detroit, Dreams and gran turismo sport. They're just the retail releases. We also have Abzu, What remains of Edith finch, the two other free to play Sony san Diego games Kill strain and drwan to death, Shadow of the beast, alienation and matter fall, The tomorrow children and bound. I may be forgetting some.
And then you have the vr title, Rigs, London Heist,The Modern Zombie Taxi company, Rez infinite(don't know Sony's involvement in this).
Once you count in third party exclusives you get Dragon Quest Builders (maybe Japan only), Persona 5, Star Ocean 5, King of Fighters XIV (Console exclusive only?), No Man's Sky(console exclusive), Nioh(console exclusive?), Ace Combat 7, Nier automata, World of Final Fantasy(also vita), Yakuza Zero ect.
A good handful of these won't make 2016 of course but if only half do that's still quite a collection of games. I think you all might be getting caught up on Bend and Santa Monica.
