I'd say the more surprising fact is the ps4 has 17 titles with 90+ to the xbox one and wii u with 7 each.

Very true!  More than the competition combined!

Not quite true. Some of the games / DLCs counted to the 17 titles of the PS4 aren't counted for XBO just because these versions got less reviews. If you "add excluded", they show up on MetaCritic.

Currently there are 17 PS4-titles, 11 XBO titles and 8 Wii U titles with 90+ rating... so the PS4 need 3 more 90+ titles to have more than the competition combined.

If we exclude the DLCs (Witcher 3 Blood & Wine, Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone and Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2), there are 15 PS4-titles, 9 XBO titles and 7 Wii U titles with 90+ rating... so the PS4 need 2 more 90+ titles to have more than the competition combined.

Should Ratchet and Clank be on this list? Its basically a remake of a PS2 game.

Can you play this version on the ps2?  No,  that makes it exclusive. It might be a remake but its more of a reboot given alot has changed. 

Still based on the PS2 game though.



Guys all this bickering is pointless, there's a spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15N08INRDiIS8pBDFFZ26b-jYyI-Jk9h8ofQT2AYoQvI/edit?usp=sharing



Buying order: Switch, better pc

Now if you exclude remasters we have a completley different list

That suggestion can come back to you when we look at the 90+ games for Switch in a few years ;)

So what? I would never act like remasters are brand new games, never did, never will.



Here comes the exclusives bregade. Good thing the vast majority of gamers care more about the actual games than whoever published it.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

I couldn't care much about metacritic.

DriveClub and Knack are frigging awesome games and both have a pretty average or low score on MC. The most important thing on a console is that gamers have a choice of games to purchase and I know I certainly do, with or without the unreliable MC.

It's also basically a completely different game. It follows the plot of the ps2 version, it has some locations from the first one, but it has so much unique content and different mechanics and gameplay over the first that it would be silly to compare.

There's as much difference between Ratchet (2016) & Ratchet & Clank as there is between Ratchet 2 and the first one.



Considering I can play a game that isn't exclusive why should I care?

And I find it so disturbing that infamous isn't there.
