1st I consider a game profitable if it has sold over 500k copies therefore the games included in my totals are only games over that number in sales.
2cd I do not include download numbers since VGChartz does not track them
3rd To be exclusive means it is not available on PS3 or 360 PC, PS2 ETC dont count. Games like MLB The Show and Test Drive are included.
Right now the 360 had 36 while PS3 had 38
However , the 360 games sold a total of 87.89 Million copies
While the PS3 sold 69.17
That is a difference of 18.72
Now the big question is will Sony's Killer 2011 be enough to push it over the top or will MS monster hits be enough to keep it on top?
Microsoft does well with bundles so Kinect adventures will continue to do well plus add in another 5 million selling Gears and a potential Halo reboot combined with a new Forza and MS has some big hitters.
Sony should get some nice help from LBP 2, Killzone 3, Resistance 3, Uncharted 3, all look to break 2 million then add in Infamous 2, Socom, Motorstorm and Twisted Metal as title likely to break a million and finally MLB The show, Move Heroes, Team ICO, The Last Guardian and DC Universe look to break 500k
I believe that by the end of 2011 Sony's profitable exclusives will pass MS in total sales if no new Halo is released.
What do you think?
