Now I don't want to knock the PS3 or your belief of how superior it is to the 360 but you seem to be of the mindstate that it's so far beyond the 360 that it's ridiculous.  Your reasons behind this are that some exclusive A-List games designed by company A are superior to some multi-plat or  B-List game designed by company B.  I'm not sure that makes sense.  I mean, look at games like Gears of War 2, Halo 3, or Assassins Creed (multi-plat).  These are games that feature HUGE draw distances but at the same time look just as good (in my opinion, much better) than a game like inFamous--and featured TONS of NPC's running around with their own AI.  As for the 360 holding a game like FF13 back, it wasn't the best JRPG around (it's definitely no Lost Odyssey) but can you name any other JRPG that looks better?  How could the 360 be holding that game back if it's the best looking around?

Now it's a great thing for PS3 owners to have such great exclusives (although, I'm only interested in two or three of them, for sure) in 2011.  More games is definitely a good thing.  Dismissing a great game simply because it suddenly got announced on another platform despite the probability that it's the exact same game it would have been, otherwise (as far as we can prove) is just the wrong stance to have.  I've never played the Killzone series so that may be the one--but aside from Heavy Rain and God of War 3, there's nothing (not even Uncharted 2) that seemes to be a quantum leap beyond what we've already seen on the 360.  The two are closer in power than you want to admit.

See the problem with that is the in your opinion the truth is they're not, and another truth is 360 is close to it's limitations with those games, where the ps3 games are just getting started, see 360 is similar to other consoles and computers, consoles and computers which had existing dev software, 360s dev software is extremely refined already, the ps3s on the other hard was made from scratch since ps3s architect is relatively new to the application of gaming, the truth is ps3 games have been out-prefroming 360s games with really unrefined dev software, it's easily possible that by the end of the gen ps3s preformence can double from what is was when those games I mentioned were released possibly even more, so yes they are farther apart, and I don't think you realize how simplistic shooters are either or how bland the maps are, hell in Infamous there are as many enemies on the screen as gears PLUS all the civilians, not to mention the cars and the building and the fact that every object in infamous is interactive, where very few are in gears of war, you're comparing a linear campaign to an open world game, yes gears and reach have good draw distances but it's not that impressive since the maps are relatively small, what open world 360 game can match infamouses draw distance? not crackdown and I can't even think of another one thats not even factoring in the interactive enviroment 

As for the whole FFXIII thing, it's not so much I think 360 held it back but if you honestly think ANY game can be ported mid-developer to any console without it effecting the final result negatively you are very naive, it probably would of sucked either way but we would have a few more side missions and fun mini games maybe a choice here or there 

Give Medievil 3 this year Sony plz!!!!

This I agree with 110 percent. Thats right bitches above the possible reality is how much I want this and Ratchet and Clank!

Don't want to disrupt you all's debate, but HR had quite a few things going for it, in an extreme way, that not many (if any) titles have kept up with, such as facial animation (Heavenly Sword was better during cutscenes, but HR did all facial animation in real time), character models, and indoor environments. I agree with D21 on one hand, the 360 has put up quite the fight, and while I'd argue that the Killzone 2, Uncharted 2, HR, & God of War III all look better than the best from the 360, it's not something that rewarding outside of bragging rights.
