PlayStation 4 – Nov. 15, 2013
To make up for the not-so-great launch of the PS3, Sony legitimately hit it out of the park with the PS4. There weren’t any big tentpole PlayStation franchises here besides Knack and Killzone; no system seller to get people on board without much hesitation but damn, there were so many ports that just felt so great to play on a next-gen console.
I personally spent the first few weeks of the PS4’s launch attempting to get the platinum trophy for Resogun, an impressive shoot-em-up from Housemarque games and also sailing the seas in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.
Early adopters would also get the chance to play Battlefield 4, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Injustice, Warframe, and many other titles that were incredible additions to the lineup.
Whether you like sports games, FPS’, platformers, or quirky indies, there was at least one thing for any type of player to enjoy. And also, it’s worth mentioning that the PS4 launched for $399, which was $100 less than the Xbox One. That was surely a strong selling point for the system.
