no more heroes came out this year? really?
wow, that price drop must have came quickly. picked mine up for 29.99 in June.



The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the best Zelda title ever made.

Glad Haze and Socom didn't take the average down too much.



...

360 imo.



How are you determining which 10 games go on each list? Also, is it just me or are you including PSN games but excluding XBLA games? (Replacing Too Human and Infinite Undiscovery with Braid and Geometry Wars 2 would substantially increase the 360's average.)

The ratios not that far off is pretty surprising. Next year I think the Wii may fare better, 360 slightly worse and PS3 slightly worse too. Pretty big games came out this year for the 360 and PS3 like LBP, MGS4, GeoW2, etc. while in 2009 the line up doesn't seem as big.

 

 @Bolded- I didnt realize Killzone 2 & Final Fantasy XIII were not big titles. :P silly me. /s

 



Double post....


why 10? and why these 10?

Well if you aren't counting World of Goo due to a PC version then you probably shouldn't count L4D for 360 either. I don't think I see any other issues



...

Uhh for the record I didn't make the list, I got it from an article and here's how he got the list:

"I decided to tally up the Metascore ratings (as of 11/20) for what are arguably the top ten exclusives for each console.  Games that are available on PC and only one console are on the list as well (World of Goo and Left 4 Dead are two examples)."

I'll change these games (bolded letters) if people want me to, just give me a game to replace it

Edit: I guess I should of put a link
