It's the most disappointing Sony's console if you ask me. hands down - first 2-3 years were basically filled with nothing but cross-gen titles, remasters (extremely lazy ones most of the time), and indie ports from PC/smartphones, like literally there was absolutely nothing worth owning a PS4 other than a few eye candies/benchmarks. like KZ:SF, TO1886 or DC, until UC4 and Horizon showed up halfway of the console's lifecycle.
Then there was GoW remake and Spider-Man, which i'm personally not a fan of, especially SM which I'm completely not into, despite being made by my most favorite studio.
And I have a mixed feelings about the last part of PS4 lifecycle - DS, sure, it's a great looking game, but I mean visually, it's not something you would necessarily want to play, let alone throw 60 bucks on it. I'd put it in the same bag with launch titles. Now the upcoming two exclusives - TLoU2 - it will be technical marvel, that's for sure, but at this stage many people, including myself, already vomit by just thinking about yet another 3rd person/over-the shoulder "cinematic experience"... GoT - again, visually stunning, but I feel the game is sort of late to the party, as Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice already delivered a great samurai experience. Sort of like BF5 was released a year after CoD:WWII - I know there ware other major issues with the game, but what I mean is, CoD completely filled the WWII theme nostalgia people craved for back then, and nobody asked for WWII ever since, and I have a feeling the same might happen with GoT.
So that would be it in terms of the supposedly "all of the amazing exclusives!" lot of people keep talking about. Ok, granted, there was also GT:S, you know, the game that used to be the system seller for every PS system prior, but that game is a joke compared to even the medicore GT5. Days Gone has gone with the wind faster than a fart. Oh, and the messiah known as TLG wen't along almost completely unnoticed, only Shenmue 3 had more stealthy release. And probably few titles here and there I honestly couldn't care less for.
You may bash PS3 for its initial price, the design choice, exotic architecture and what's not, but its lineup was as legendary as PSX and PS2, there wasn't a quarter, if not even a month, without Sony's exclusive, which again, covered entire spectrum of genres, and not just within a single titles, but entire series/trilogies. PS4 was/is not amazing at all (unles you started gaming just yesterday), it's the laziest effort (if you can even call it like that) Sony has ever put into their gaming consoles. That free PS+ sure can make a man one hell of a lazy ass motherfucker.
And all of the above apply just to the software, side because I could go on and on about the build quality, the jet engine noise, DS4 ergonomics and battery life thanks to perma LED, as well as the god-awfully slow download speeds, which were somewhere acceptable back in the PS3 days, where the patches took only couple of hundred MB, going up to 2-4GB at the very end of the prolonged generation, but that's still nothing compared to today's 60-150GB, and again, you could somehow explain that back then because PSN was free compared to XBL, but now they make significant chunk of their entire profit just from PS+, and it's just as garbage as it was almost 15 years ago.
But in Sony's defense, this entire generation was a huge disappointment, not just them, be it the 1st or 3rd party publishers, even the big, popular yearly franchises from EA, Ubi etc. were "meh", they were just there but nothing to e hyped about like in the PS360 era. Looking at the gen today, I'd say only two games are actually recognizable, influential, meaningful, whatever you want to name it - GTA5, Witcher 3, Minecraft and Fortnir. All the other games were forgotten in no time, literally people were finishing most of this gan titles within a week or even a weekend, and nobody even heard of those games The best thing that happen this gen is IMO Play Anywhere from MS, as I am now able to play games what were not available elsewhere than an XB console, on a hardware that meets my needs/demands, on the performance level that satisfies me, and even with extra features like adaptive sync, high refresh rate, down sampling and so on. I only need Sony to follow suit to be a fully happy gamer.
That being said, I really like to think the Jaguar CPU is really so damn weak, that that's all we could ever get from those machines, and the upcoming generation will allow the developers for much greater creative freedom, and both Sony and MS will have to fight for every single consumer like they did back in PS360 generation, and luckily, every single sign on the road indicates this is exactly what will actually happen.
