I think everyone already knows the answer is yes really. I don't see how anyone can deny Xbox 360 isn't PS3 equal in putting out quality games if not more in some aspects. And people who exclude the NA region is just their way of ignoring facts and the success of a console. Its the biggest market so not to count it is foolish. 360 software sales are pretty close to ps3's in "Others" if thats what you prefer to hear. So yes Very equal.

Not PS3 or 360 software bud, but MS and Sony.  I'll give you a list, try matching it with MS developed/owned/published all 3 things.  All are Sony owned developed published, this gen only to make things fair.

Gran Turismo
God of War
Socom
Uncharted
Killzone
LBP
Mag
Warhawk
Singstar
Motorstorm
Eye pet
MLB The Show

Coming - Modnation, The Last Guardian

More to list, but iam sure its enough. 

Uh you show me a list of sony owned made and published games? So because certain exclusives weren't made by MS that they do not count? Your list doesn't change the fact the games are still there and software and hardware sales have been strong. Sorry bud

Well its a MS vs Sony.

You understand if i included 2nd party Sony kills MS just the same.

But ok, list 2nd aprty exclusives if you want.

 

No actually if you don't count everything then it's comparison isn't fair. So no you fail again to make a point. Its called the success of a console. Games, hardware, 1st party, 3rd party, multiplatform all of it. And when you count everything Sony doesn't kill anything.

PSN sales don't count. Their list sucks, your list sucks since they both suck you'll have to find something better to argue about.

wehh wehh wehh still can't list anythign from MS wehh wehh wehh.

 

Why the hell do I care about MS? I was just saying that relative to Nintendo both suck in terms of impact so therefore you should find something more productive to argue about.

Wii Sports + Wii Fit + Mario Kart Wii + New Super Mario Brothers = more important than all of Sony's games ever produced in their entire history. If I was to put Nintendo on the same graph as Sony and Microsoft I would have to break the scale so that you could even see Sony and Microsoft on that said graph. So next to Sony's pretty poor efforts this generation and Microsofts lack of ability to perform in this area saying one flea is a little bigger than another is pretty irrelevant.

So no I don't need to even click on the Xbox 360 link above to come up with any response.

Why are you mentioning Nintendo? It's about Microsoft vs Sony in the gaming department. You can't put the Daddy in the fight, unfair.

Ya, he mentioned brand in the OP, did you not read? I suspect you pulled the stupid and I just followed you down the rabbit hole.

*Sony WON 2 generations in a row,

*MS had 1 year head start and still cant manage to outdo PS3 vastly like Wii has done WW, while ps3 launching @ the most ridiculous price launch ever($600).

*Not even close when it comes to 1st party studio and IP's owned compared to Sony.

And your saying that their equal in terms of brand power?......I WANT THAT CRACK YOUR TAKING!!!
