What’s kinda sad is the fact the Xbox has the better multiplayer exclusives by far, but their single player collection is so bad that everyone forgets about it.
Honestly, what great multiplayer games does PlayStation have? I can’t think of a single one. Even Nintendo has Splatoon and Mario Kart.
I think Multiplayer is a big money-making machine with micro-transactions. GTA, Fifa, Madden, etc etc. However, it would be sad to see that become the driving force behind the design of any new console. There's a lot of people out there who enjoy games for their single-player storylines and that is why Sony beat the rest for me. Captivating stories like the newest God of War, Uncharted series, TLOU and upcoming Days Gone looks like it could be a good story. Multiplayer can only satisfy so much. I hope we are moving in to an age of less brain-less games and games that make you feel and think and I would hope immersion would take more precedent than "how many extras can we get them to buy?". That is my personal hope. I know there are a lot of people out there that think the multiplayer experience is primary. It isn't that I don't play multiplayer, but I would rather spend £50 a time on something that makes me walk away with that amazing feeling finishing an excellent game can have if only once than spending that on DLC that allows me a new map pack and some guns.
