Sony PlayStation 4 Hits 500 Games Milestone (finder.com)

Posted by samzenpus on from the time-to-play dept.

SlappingOysters writes: Finder is reporting that the catalogue of Sony PlayStation 4 games has just passed the 500 mark. The website has been tracking the install sizes of every PS4 game and in doing that, has been able to confirm that the mark had been reached. It's a significant catalogue advantage for the console, with the Xbox One currently offering 349 games, although the arrival of backwards compatibility on November 12 will change that dramatically. The site has also shown that the rate of releases is increasing over time.

    Because if everyone doesn't know which *video game* platform you enjoy is superior, how will you sleep at night?

    Yes yes I know it started as a joke, but most of them don't see it that way anymore....

      Now that you're a grown adult you can buy pretty much all the consoles if you wanted.

    Not only that but it's really disingenuous to try and count last-generation games as being games for this generation's consoles. It would be just as unfair for Sony to try and claim that all the streamed backwards compatible games they have on the PS4 via Playstation Now are somehow relevant to the discussion of number of games designed for the platform.
