Hot Shots Golf 5 Gets Four 9's From Famitsu

It looks like Clap Hanz has done it again. Though not as popular in the United States then in the Land of the Rising Sun, the Hot Shots Golf series has always delivered a solid golf experience. The game has received the highest overall score in this month's Famitsu magazine. Grab your bags and hit the links, offline or with a friend online!

Sony's ten finest exclusive franchises

Digitally Downloaded wrote: "While Nintendo's first party studios are held to an almost impossible standard, Sony does not get enough credit for its own first party studios. They're quite awesome, too. Sony's stable of exclusives have significantly improved over the past generation, offering content that you cannot find anywhere else but PlayStation. This top ten list features what I consider to be the ten best Sony franchises. From Kratos to Nathan Drake, Jak and Daxter to Ratchet & Clank, and Wipeout to Gran Turismo, PlayStation fans have been spoiled rotten by these franchises."

Something that isnt on the list Infamous its such a great franchise.

Conzul4068d ago

Dafuq? Infamous is easily top 5 Sony material. I enjoyed it way more than Killzone or Gran Turismo.

Ezz20134068d ago (Edited 4068d ago )

WHAT ?! infamous games are one of the best this gen

and also 10 sony's franchises is not fair since they have alot more of amazing franchises

Derekvinyard134068d ago

I would take infamous over wipeout any day

VonBraunschweigg4068d ago

inFamous should have made the list, but if it isn't too much trouble, can you please edit your comment to let's say, Hotshots Golf or something? I mean not WipEout man, not my beloved WipEout HD Fury online Eliminator. With the 2097 hud & soundtrack. With the female announcer. Contender...eliminated:)

Thanx

HonestDragon4060d ago

Freaking A right. Infamous is hands down one of the best Sony franchises around.

pr0t0typeknuckles4068d ago

where the heck is infamous,it deserves a spot on that list,though it is a top 10,id probably swipe infamous in for hot shots golf,only because hot shots isnt my type of game.

LOGICWINS4068d ago

If this were my list, Yakuza and Infamous would without question be at the top of the list.

MattS4068d ago

Yakuza isn't Sony. It's Sega.

I agree with you though. I love that series.

LOGICWINS4068d ago

To my knowledge, there has never been a Yakuza game created for a non- Sony platform. So its a Sony platform exclusive. But I see what your saying. You mean games published by Sony.

Tito084067d ago (Edited 4067d ago )

Dude you and your delusional logics, Yakuza isn't a Sony IP, and isn't published by Sony, the only reason you don't see the Yakuza games on any other platform is because when they first worked on the first game, it was supposed to be a multiplat, but of the 3 console makers, only Sony gave them the green light as opposed to Nintendo & Microsoft. It is a 3rd party game regardless of exclusivity, the article is about 1st party games, if Sony ever bought the riggts for the IP, then yeah it should be on the list!

It is very evident you want to add something that has nothing to do with the subject to get other people angry, keep your "Logics" somewhere!

_FantasmA_4067d ago

It technically does count as an exclusive since you know its exclusive.

nosferatuzodd4068d ago

what? you kidding me wipe out is way better than fzero ..

dafegamer4068d ago

Where the heck is Infamous? Also add the recently Gravity rush to the list too. It should belong to sonys exclusive powerhouses

I_am_Batman4068d ago (Edited 4068d ago )

I would add Resistance as well.

dafegamer4068d ago

yup amazing series. I really hope we get a ps4 installment
