Not considering the juggernauts, what would be your top 3 PS4 (console) Exclusives?

[PintSizedSlasher]

If you disregard the following PS4 exclusive juggernauts*, what would be your top 3 of PS4 (console) exclusives?

- Bloodborne
- God of War
- Horizon Zero Dawn
- Spiderman
- The Last of Us Remastered/Part II
- Uncharted 4
- Final Fantasy VII remake

*(of course it's debatable what would be considered a juggernaut game, but for arguments sake let's go with this list)


Personally I found it very difficult to make a top 3, because there are so many great games to choose from.
But after some careful consideration this is my top 3:


1. Ratchet and Clank (2016)

Recently played it again and it such a fun game. And still one of the most gorgeous games on PS4. Extremely hyped for the new game on PS5.



2. Death Stranding

Very divisive game and I can understand why, but I loved every second of it. Kojima at his best imo.



3. Dreams

It never was on my radar, but once I got a taste of the creating I couldn't stop. Amazing "game". Hope to see it on PS5 as well!

 

[BassForever]

Does FF7R not count as a juggernaut? That's my #1 if it's allowed.

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

SotC, Death Stranding, and Days Gone for me. Sony has been firing on all cylinders since 2015, took a bit but hasn't relented since then.

 

[zombiejames]

In no specific order:

Death Stranding
Shadow of the Colossus
Until Dawn

 

[MJKadhim]

Its very hard to chose between those 3 games
Bloodborne
God of War
The Last of Us Part II

 

[Xavi]

Uh,FF7R

Shit, totally forgot about FFVIIR. I'll add it to the list. Sorry 😬

 

[rude]

Wait I read that wrong. Revised List:

Death Stranding
Street Fighter V
Uncharted Lost Legacy

Nier would have replaced Lost Legacy if it didn't get ported to Xbox.

 

[Noema]

Shadow of the Colossus for sure. I didn't play this game on PS2 or PS3 and the remake quickly became one of my favorites. Very satisfying Platinum, as well.

Nioh 2 is also the best game released this year for me, as well.

 

[kris_ffc]

1. Ratchet and Clank
2. Days Gone.
3. InFamous: Second Son.

If Lost Legacy counts, I'd probably have that over InFamous.

 

[Bundy]

1. God of War
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
3. Uncharted 4
4. Until Dawn
5. Days Gone/FF7R

 

[Deleted member 2145]

well you removed bloodborne and spider man so....

 

[black070]

Shadow of the Colossus, Gravity Rush 2 & Uncharted The Lost Legacy.

 

[DeathyG]

Days Gone
Until Dawn
Ratchet & Clank

 

[Hey Please]

Death Stranding
Uncharted Lost Legacy

I do not have a third one yet.

Its very hard to chose between those 3 games
Bloodborne
God of War
The Last of Us Part II

Click to shrink...

You were meant to disregard these. :P

 

[PintSizedSlasher]

Its very hard to chose between those 3 games
Bloodborne
God of War
The Last of Us Part II

Click to shrink...

Well, you're in luck. You don't have to choose between those 3. (Read the op again)

 

[Thiago]

Come on guys, read the OP.

In my opinion:

Days Gone, Ratchet and Clank 2016 and Persona 5 Royal.

 

[RightChandMan]

OP, how can you forget about Astrobot VR? Easily my favorite PS4 exclusive this gen.

 

[Deleted member 923]

Nioh 2
Uncharted Lost Legacy
Death Stranding
Until Dawn

Edit: Fuck, forgot about Until Dawn and Astrobot. Updated the list.

 

[--R]

Death Stranding
Judgment
Persona 5

 

[Sasliquid]

Persona 5
Nioh 2
Uncharted: Lost Legacy (edit: wait, no, Judgment)

 

[Van Bur3n]

1. Nioh 2
2. Nioh 2
3. Nioh 2

I would mention Norman Reedus game but no, just Nioh 2.

 

[Deleted member 39144]

Earth Defense Force 5
428 Shibuya Scramble
Project Diva: Future Tone

 

[Izanagi89]

Death Stranding
Days Gone
Until Dawn (I'm cheating but SoTC can be swapped in here too)

I think Days Gone got way too much overblown hate. It's a pedestrian open world in it's design sure but the story and gameplay felt really fresh to me.

 

[NPTinker]

1. Persona 5 Royal
2. Persona 5
3. Persona 5 Dancing

 

[____]

Death Stranding
Days Gone
Astrobot

 

[jon bones]

Until Dawn is the Best PS4 exclusive (or tied with Uncharted TLL) so it's def that

 

[N2BearHugs]

Astro Bot

 

[dancingphlower]

I imagine these need to be SIE games? Persona 5 (Royal) is my number one if not. But for SIE-published games, I'd say besides the "juggernauts", my favorites would be Death Stranding, Nioh 2, and Infamous Second Son.

 

[Ninja Kn1ght]

Persona 5 Royal
FFVII Remake
Death Stranding

 

[Viale]

Hmmm if we take away some of the bigger Sony releases, it becomes more like:

Persona 5 Royal: probably my GOAT at the moment

Gravity Rush 2: a great game that is criminally underlooked.

Maybe R&C? : I'm a little sad they took a lot of the bite out of ratchet, but the Gameplay is as good as it's ever been


Oh shit, read some more and forgot about Judgment briefly. Yeah, would definitely have Judgment on the list.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Death Stranding was one of the most heavily marketed AAA games of the generation. They even made a whole video announcing that they were making it to begin with. I think you just excluded it from the list of "juggernauts" because you really, really wanted to put it in your top 3 lol.

Anyway in no particular order:

Until Dawn
Shadow of the Colossus
Persona 5

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Nioh 2 and Until Dawn, I guess. If you conveniently leave out the best games from the console the way you did, then everything else that matters is multiplatform.

 

[Gooey]

I can only pick two: Gravity Rush 2 and Persona 5 (vanilla)

They're my favorite two games for the console period

 

[Deleted member 5725]

Let's see, I think:

1. Astro Bot: Rescue Mission
2. Death Stranding
3. The Last Guardian

 

[Bennibop]

1.) Astrobot
2.) Days Gone
3.) Death Stranding
4.) Tearaway
5.) Blood and Truth

 

[Deleted member 62078]

If Death Stranding counts as not-a-juggernaut, I'm having Resident Evil 7 in VR - which I believe is still exclusive to PS4.

1: RE7 VR
2: Astro Bot
3: Tetris Effect

 

[KINGOFSHIBUYA Ltd.]

Persona 5 Royal
Yakuza 0
Astro Bot Rescue Mission

 

[Ikaruga]

Persona 5
Yakuza 0
...and the other games are not exclusive

 

[Funky_Monkey]

Not in any particular order

Resogun
Ratchet and Clank
Infamous Second Son

 

[Gestault]

Wipeout Collection
Gravity Rush
Astrobot

 

[faisalsmj]

1- Bloodborne
2- God of War
3- Final Fantasy VII remake

 

[Deleted member 39144]

Amazing the number of people who don't read the OP.

 

[Hyun Sai]

1 : Nioh 2
2 : Uncharted : The Lost Legacy
3 : ?

 

[AndrewDean84]

InFamous Second Son
Resogun

 

[More Human than Human]

1- Nex Machina
One of the best games ever and a must-play for those who love excelent (and fast) gameplay.



2- The Last Guardian
Another masterpiece from Ueda. My personal favorite from his trilogy, there's no other game like it in the industry. Also probably features the best animation and climbing system out there.



3- Judgment
Arguably the best game from Yakuza Team next to Yakuza 0.

 

[Sprat]

Shenmue 3, days gone, resogun

 

[jroc74]

Death Stranding easily. infamous 2nd son.

Struggling for 3, because some of the picks in here I haven't played.

Wait a min, just remembered I got PSVR last month.

AstroBot. Hell, does RE7 VR count? lol

Damn, Days Gone. Forgot about that.

Ok, I'm up to 4 games right now.

 

[Greywaren]

1- Uncharted: Lost Legacy
2- Days Gone
3- Ratchet and Clank

 

[Noema]

1. Nioh 2
2. Nioh 2
3. Nioh 2
