Dissapointments
War Games
As for shooters, I really only play Battlefield 3 and looking forward to B4, but do we need so many shooters? No. The Order looks interesting, if it is a shooter but so many dark themed SciFi/War shooters? Why so many? Where are the platformers and whimsical action games?
Zombie Games
Rays the Dead, Dying Light, Walking Dead, Dead Rising 3, Ninja Gaiden Z, Plants vs Zombies Warfare, etc... I figure zombie genre was a trend from last gen but do we need more zombie games? No. A trend that won't die.
No RPGs.
Sure we got some Final Fantasy, Witcher, maybe I missed one? Elder Scrolls? But where are all the weird JRPGs that we complained about missing last gen? The lack of JRPGs last gen was one of the reasons I waited to buy a PS3. You would think that maybe VITA would get some. No?
Favorites
Nintendo
I missed out on the Wii generation of games so I'm not misssing out on getting HD versions of Nintendo franchises. I look forward to all the HD Editions of DK, Mario Kart, 3D Mario, Pikmin, Zelda, etc. I would have liked to see FZERO, Metroid or Star Fox, but I suppose Nintendo needs to get more units out there first. I know there is a lack of "new" or innovation, but just look at the list of dissapointments and tell me next gen isn't a sequel to current gen.
Sony
The price is awesome. I was hoping PS4 would cost $1,000 so I wouldn't feel compelled to buy one, then it was $400, damn you Sony. No DRM is cool, now I can play in my nuclear submarine without worries. Indie games look so cool. VITA playability sounds nice.
Games
FF15, KH - confirmation that they exist, and KH in HD!
Super Smash Bros - finally mega man was added, and evil villager from animal crossing
Xenoblade HD - whatever it's called on wiiU, I want to play it
(XBO) Robot game - I like robots so I want to play it of course. It's also a new genre
