PS3 library is a bit larger but Xbox has got Halo. Can you imagine the hype when they announce Halo 4?

IGN score is already included in both Metacritic and Gamerankings. That means the scores of IGN have a triple impact on the outcome.

If you want to include IGN as a seperate column you should take out their reviews from Gamerankings and Metacritic and re-calculate their average scores. (and even then IGN would have 50-100 times the impact of a normal review)

why would i exclude the ign score.

im counting games the scrore 80 or higher on gameranking and metacritic, if ign helped get that composite score to 80, then so be it. im only including ign seperately in the first place, is so people can get a reference of how the biggest game review site scores their games. so like i said if ign score a game 87, but the meta/rankings score is 78.5, it wont be on the list

yeah but the whole making an average score using Metacritic, Gamerankings AND IGN thing just doesn't make much sense.

There's no problem in just listing their scores however.

well their is averages just for the gameranking score, just for the metacritic score, and just for ign score. as well as the average for all 3. i can understand that you dont like the average of all 3, but you can always ignore that average

well i hope you like my list, it took a long time finding all the games, and adding up and averaging the scores

Quite possibly the worst way to ever "average" out a review score, IGN is counted three times and one of those times it's weighted as 1/3, averaging Meta and Gamerankings together is bad enough since they both share most of the same sites, and then there are ports from PS2 counted... I really don't know where to start on this one lol

well your picture is awesome.

but there averages of, just meta, just GR, and just ign as well. so you you dont like me average gr, meta and ign score, you could just ignore it. you can look at each score, you can look at the verticle columns which average just one companies score, you can look at the average for a particular game, or you can not even look at the average. its up to you. just know that ign is only up there for reference. the game isnt on the list if it doesnt score 80 on GR or meta

theres 2 pots of ps2 games, which still means its a playstation exclusive, since its only on a PlayStation. i also included games on pc. 

I don't get what people are so confused about. The IGN score is just a FYI. It shows an interesting trend, I forget who got fired but thats right about the time PS3 scores started going down and 360 scores started going up.

Good job on this list, MS did say that 2011 was the year of Kinect, so whatever that means. Hopefully, MS will have a big E3, announcing some promising new titles. I know that Sony has got their foot on the gas pedal at the moment, so I expect another big year in 2012.

There's a better argument for PC titles rather than PS2 titles if you're wanting to talk about HD games obviously :P since PC titles were designed to be on high def hardware and PS2 titles were not... 

Plus the rule he outlined at the start "different enough from its psp, ps2 counterparts" which the collections are just straight up ports... nothing added other than widescreen... oh and Sly has 3D on all three titles and not just one
