Cow logic:
3 Gears of War games in 5 years (4 in 7 years) = Milking :evil: (Gears 1, Gears 2, Gears 3, Gears: J)
4 Uncharted games in 4 years = Not milking :cool: (Uncharted 1, Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, Uncharted:GA)
4 Halo games in 4 years = Milking:evil: (ODST, Reach, Anniversary, Halo 4)
5 God of War games in 5 years = Not milking :cool: (Chains of Olympus, God of War collection, GoW3, Ghost of Sparta, Orgins collection)
4 Forza games in 5 years = Milking :evil: (Forza 2, Forza 3, Forza 4, Forza Horizon)
5 resistance games in 5 years = Not milking:cool: (R1, R2, Retribution, R3, Burning Skies)
5 LittlebigPlanet games inLESSthan 4 years = Not milking:cool: (LBP1, LBP PSP, LBP 2, LBP Vita, LBP Karting)
5 Motorstorm games in 4 years (4 on PS3) = Not milking :cool: (MS1, Pacific Rift, Arctic Edge, Apocalypse, RC)
Cows gon' cow :cool:

StrongDeadlift
3 Gears of War games in 5 years (4 in 7 years) = Milking :evil: (Gears 1, Gears 2, Gears 3, Gears: J) - not milking and would be stupid to claim.
4 Uncharted games in 4 years = Not milking :cool: (Uncharted 1, Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, Uncharted:GA) - released on two platforms, nice try though.
4 Halo games in 4 years = Milking:evil: (ODST, Reach, Anniversary, Halo 4) - Halo 3, Wars, ODST, Reach, 4 (5 games)
5 God of War games in 5 years = Not milking :cool: (Chains of Olympus, God of War collection, GoW3, Ghost of Sparta, Orgins collection) - 2 different platforms + "remakes, relly now?
4 Forza games in 5 years = Milking :evil: (Forza 2, Forza 3, Forza 4, Forza Horizon) - I'll be honest, if they release Forza 5 on teh box next year I'd consider to call it milking, .
5 resistance games in 5 years = Not milking:cool: (R1, R2, Retribution, R3, Burning Skies) - 3 different platform. What is this?
5 LittlebigPlanet games inLESSthan 4 years = Not milking:cool: (LBP1, LBP PSP, LBP 2, LBP Vita, LBP Karting) - 3 different platforms AGAIN.
5 Motorstorm games in 4 years (4 on PS3) = Not milking :cool: (MS1, Pacific Rift, Arctic Edge, Apocalypse, RC) - 3 different platforms. Wow.
So all in all, what I got from this is that we've seen 5 different Halo games since 2008, but let's be real because one of them was a RTS game so 4 shooters is fine IMO, but I can see how *some* people might consider it milking.
Then you like to call out on franchises that have been been on 2-3 platforms (PSP/PSV/PS3) and for what reason? GOW, Uncharted, LBP and Resistance are the current core Playstation franchises. Why shouldn't they bring them along with other exclusives? They're are *mostly* good-decent games and help sell the consoles. HOW is making GOW for the PS2, PSP and PS3 milking? The same can be said about Motorstorm (PS3/PSP/PSV)?
And why do you even mention the re-releases/"remakes" (GOW/Halo)? They're just easy ports and it's not as if Sony suddenly stopped making new franchises/exclusives because of the re-releases - 2012/2013 will feature new games such as Battle Royale, The Last of Us, Beyond and Ni Nu Kuni and new games from current franchises such as Twisted Metal, Starhawk, Sly and GOW - none of those have seen frequent releases (TW and Sly being released for the first time on the PS3) so I don't really see the problem in bolstering an lineup that already features exclusives with a couple of "remakes".
Let me ask you - if Sony allowed BC for the PS3, would it have been considered "milking" if they re-released the GOW games (original PS2 games) and bundled them with GOW3, back when it released? Would it also be considered "milking" if they did the same just + GOW3 when GOW:A releases?
Oh and one last thing - *some* people will call MS out for milking their franchises (I don't necessarily agree, but I see their points), but in reality I think most of the complains are based on how MS is more or less just releasing games from the same franchise over and over - Halo, Gears, Fable and Forza. I'll be honest here, I cannot remember when the last time was MS released an original retail game that wasn't tailored for Kinect. I just listed 3-4 relatively huge and original exclusives + 2 games (TM/Sly) that haven't seen a release since last gen, that'll be released for the PS3 in 2012-2013.
The need for this thread is all in all f1cking useless, beause not only doesn't MS "milk" their games (they just rotate between their core franchises), but neither does Sony, but hey - keep on with your "cows gonna cow" BS if that makes you feel better. Feel free to come up with something remotely sensible that doesn't invovle "cow" and can actually be considered reasonable.
