to illustrate just how mind-bogglingly incapable sony is of accepting that the walkman era is long dead and it will never be apple, here's a comparison with a post i made almost exactly one year ago that is almost exactly the same content wise

I know that it has some, I own an Xbone lol. It just doesn't have very many. Both Dead Rising and Ryse are on PC now, Titanfall is also on PC, Halo is a trainwreck, Forza 5 isn't bad and neither is Forza Horizon 2. Sunset Overmeme isn't anything to write home about, and neither are any of the others.

wii u sequels and remakes are better than Wii's sequels and remakes
