Not indie titles.  We also have games like Concord $400  million and it doesn't exist anymore. Look at say metacritic and 90%+ games for PS2, 360,PS4. Compare to now and eliminate indie titles (they're indie for a reason). See how many are AA or AAA tgat casuals may actually know about.  You're also missing the point ongames costing $500. I know it's uneconomic but with games posting $100-400 million that's what we should be paying imho.  Game development costs are also why some games tank unless they sell 10 million copies or attract whales to milk. Live service type games.   Game development also takes 5-7 years on big titles. It's one reason you're not getting that many sequels. If they started on Baldurs Gate 4 tomorrow it would arrive in time for PS6. PS2 for example had 3 main line GTA titles. PS3/Xbox had 2, PS4 had 1 (GTA Online).High scores on ps5. Note lack of exclusives <a href="https://www.metacritic.com/browse/game/ps5/" target="_blank">Best Games on PS5 - Metacritic</a>PS3 has 49 games rated 9.0 or higher.
