Name another company that delivers varying genres and styles

It's funny how Sony are the ones always taking risks and making new shit.

Sony developers make a plethora of varying genres and games with their own flavors. You don't see this type of variety on Xbox, save for maybe Cuphead, and Nintendo is just bing, bing, WAHOO. Make it even worse is that both Nintendo and Microsoft have infinitely more resources than Sony, yet don't take risks to create anything new.

lol.

Despite this /v/eddit still thinks all they make is 3rd person shooters

>>389608484
Bloodborne is just Dark Souls with a new coat of paint and Ratchet & Clank isn't new at all. Same goes for Uncharted and InFamous, the former is just a generic movie game and the latter is a third person shooter but with super powers. None of those are "risk taking" in any sense of the word.

>>389609060
Anything that isn't trying to be one of these cancer “games as services” games is pretty risky in 2017

>>389609359
Nice delusion retard, but half of that list is the exact opposite of taking a risk. Especially fucking Bloodborne and Uncharted.

He is a shitposter. Infamous was pretty good except the camera on Infamous II. It's one of the most decent games of the PS3/360 era.

Okay.
>>389609484
>R&C 2016 is amazing in every aspect and the best R&C since III
And you call me a shitposter? The remake was fucking shit. The fact that it's some dumb movie tie in game with gutted frame-rate and missing levels should be a pretty good indicator of how bad it is, especially in comparison to the originals.
>>389609616
I already gave my arguments. You still haven't told me how games like Uncharted, Ratchet & Clank, Bloodborne, or Infamous are "taking risks". Especially long-running game series for Sony like Ratchet & Clank.

>>389609608
I only had access to the digital version and it crashed after 1~2 hours. I never had any problem with other game so I doubt it's the hard disk. Also III had a better frame rate (on PS3)

>>389609317
While I'll admit I'm not a fan of Fat Princess Adventures being Diablo III lite, it was still an entertaining and fun dungeon crawler nonetheless. But c'mon son, the original Fat Princess is one of the best RTS games I've played in a long time. I'm still mad that they shut down the servers.

>>389609608
Nice joke. Crack in Time had the worst weapons in the series by far and there wasn't one memorable level in the game.

>>389609745
>and missing levels should be a pretty good indicator of how bad it is
But with another content added. The game takes 10~12 hours to complete without trying to collect every single thing. The length as R&C 2

>>389609901
>Crack in Time had the worst weapons in the series by far
And 2016 didn't? Not to mention the gutted humor, missing levels and planets, as well as the shit story, characters, and the story took a nose-dive because it was a forced tie-in with the movie. It had a 30 FPS cap despite all the other games being 60 FPS and it shoehorned Quark and Nefarious far more than it should have.

>>389609741
No shit Sherlock.

>>389609912
What exactly did it add that warranted the complete removal is entire levels and planets? card collecting and jet flying? Fuck off, those were the worst parts of the game.

Ha no. i liked the Reboot game and all but it's not better then 3. R&C 3 had more guns, more planets, better characters and story then the Reboot game.

Most of their modern software consists of artsy schlock trying to come off more deep than it actually is.

>>389610000
The PS3 R&C games were ~45 fps with lots of frame drops.

>>389610270
It also has far better humor and Ratchet wasn't a faggot boy scout. Quark was actually funny and Nefarious' gags were top notch. RC2016 was fucking trash.

>>389610384

PS3 R&C's hovered between 50-60 FPS even during combat and only dipped lower than that to around 45 FPS for a couple seconds if there were a lot of explosions on the screen. it's not good, but it's a lot better than 30 FPS with dips like in the remake.

>>389608434
>>389608484
Sony isn't so much taking risks as much as it's leveraging its money, throwing it at the wall and seeing what sticks. They pretty much have no hand in any of the games, which is fine because you have shit like Microsoft killing properties otherwise, but it's ridiculous to give them credit for something like this because they're just poaching from the developers and fucking the ones that don't make it for them.

Nintendo is easily the one that takes the most risks, which is evident by the way people're always baffled by their decisions.

Not styles but Nintendo has pretty much all genres covered with Mario.

>>389611074
I can understand thinking it's overrated (it is) but it's not awful and it's certainly better than schlock like Andromeda or Ghost Recon Wildlands.

>>389611093

>>389611723
I would buy every single Nintendo console if they made good games like Super Mario World and Star Fox 64. Sadly I have to be happy with my emulation/SNES and my Everdrive 64.

>>389612032
Good.

Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. was underrated, ARMS is kinda trashy though, and Wonderful 101 deserves a sequel. Nintendo does make new things every once and a while, but Mario covers a wide variety of genres it's almost redundant for them to go out their way to make entirely new IP's.

>>389610376
The ps2 games ran at 60 fps, the developer commentary series on youtube makes this clear, i don't know about the ps3 games but they still felt silky as hell.

>>389611723
As opposed to "Nintendo, the company that rapes their own franchise by changing them" or "Nintendo, the company that releases gimmick platforms."

Sony doesn't even develop games but they're being accredited for their publishing. Even if we treat Nintendo's lines as all the same shit, they've gotten into the habit of picking up risky franchises like Bayonetta, or bringing series like Dragon Quest over to the west when they've underperformed previously.

The evidence that Nintendo is doing good isn't the fanbase, it's the hatebase that contradicts itself to find ways to attack them.

>>389608484
Here's Sony's involvement in these projects: "Here you go, have some money". That's it. Stop giving Sony credit for something they aren't doing.

>>389612395
That's how it SHOULD be done. Just let the devs do their thing

Nintendo picks up franchises and runs them into the ground by making them exclusive to systems that aren't worth owning. Bayonetta says hello. Fatal Frame says hello. Tenchu says hello.

>>389612395
This is like the third time some retard has said this. Does Microsoft make video games? Or do they have their Microsoft owned video game studios develop games instead? Same goes with Nintendo and Retro Studios of Nd Cube. Sure they fund the projects, but they're also responsible for its creation.

Is that why PSP outsold 3DS?

>>389614187

The DS outsold the PSP and the 3DS fucking massacred the Vita.

>>389614187
Psp didn't compete with 3ds, it competed with DS, which outsold it. PsVita was the competitor for 3ds, and I think most people know the Vita was a bigger flop then Wii u. Nice try though.

>>389614298
But you said PSP was a failure. If it was, shouldn't 3DS by default be the even bigger failure?

>>389614187
You should've brought up the PS4 outselling the 3DS instead.

>>389615006
And the PS2 remains the best selling console of all time. Where are we going this?

>>389614909
You obviously can't understand what I'm saying, psp wasn't a failure, the failure was trying to beat Nintendo. DS greatly outsold PSP. 3ds greatly outsold Vita. Comparing two gens would be like comparing Wii sales to PS4.

The DS did
>inb4 it didn't
It did. Nintendo sold 154 million DS's worldwide. Sony officially stated that they shipped a total of 150 PS2's right before they stopped supporting it completely and there's no source from them saying that they sold 155 million worlds wide. The only source saying that is wikipedia don't there's no actual source from Sony, even on Wikipedia, that syas that they sold that many copies. There's a statement on the lower part of the page saying that it did and it links a couple sources but neither of those sources go to any place that says that the PS2 sold 155 million from Sony and none of Sony's financial reports say so either.

tl;dr the 155 million sales number has no source and comes from wikipedia and not sony.

>>389616091
Oh shit what now

>>389611961
Anything that's not part of a still-popular franchise is a risk. And new IPs are always risks.

>>389616091
>155 million sales number has no source and comes from wikipedia and not sony.

That's bullshit though. There's fiscal reports from 2011 that cites this. Hell, even Sony back in 2010 gave a fiscal report at the time saying the PS2 sold 150M units.

Where's your sources that Nintendo claimed the DS to be the highest selling system of all time?

>>389608434
They have money and they throw it at the right shit. Microsoft doesn't know who to appeal to anymore, Nintendo is Nintendo as in they only take risks in their hardware and rarely go out of their core user base's tastes in genres, and PC doesn't have a single corporate overlord in term of game development.

So Sony wins by default. It's not hard to win when one of your only two competitors is retarded and the other doesn't give a fuck about certain markets.

No it isn't. Did you just find three articles talking about the PS2 and its sales without actually looking at them? None of those articles you posted disprove anything that I said. One of them says that the PS2 shipped 150 units worldwide right before Sony stopped supporting it (the first one). The second one doesn't mention lifetime sales at all, it just talks about Sony making money on playstation despite sales going down for hardware like the ps2 and psp. The last one, an actual financial statement from Sony. doesn't mention 155 million hardware units sold anywhere, The only 150 million units sold number in that chart is 150 million ps2 software units sold in 2010,. Software, not hardware. None of those things you posted proves anything. I want you to find an actual statement from Sony saying that the PS2 sold 155 million units and not some third party.

>Where's your sources that Nintendo claimed the DS to be the highest selling system of all time?
There isn't a self proclaimed source from them gloating about it, but if you actually know how to read you can see that the DS sold the most out of any console or handheld releases to this date.
