It's staggering when you think there is almost no competition as Nintendo have gone off on there own tangent and Microsoft have easily the worst first party line up in modern console history. Nice that they're not phoning it in.
Nintendo are still making great games, Mario Odyssey, BOTW and Splatoon 2 all in the last year, Metroid Prime 4 and Pokemon also have great potential
Microsoft are really paying for the cull of studios under Don Mattrick; Bungie, Epic, Bizarre and Lionhead all gone, their only first party critical success this gen has been Forza Horizon 3, the rest have been lukewarm (Halo 5, Gears 4) or sub-par (Quantum Break, Sea of Thieves). Past glories keep the fans on board, but I wonder how long it will be until they give up hope like I did.
Sony have really narrowed down on epic third-person action games and, while development of these games seems to take forever, Uncharted 4, Bloodborne, Horizon Zero Dawn being critical and commercial hits, and I think with God of War, Spider-man, Ghost of Tsushima, Last of Us 2 and Death Stranding the PS4's best days are still ahead.
Great times
