How does the xbox 360 have better game libary then PS3?

[Diomedes1976]

Metacritic doesnt mean anything in this.

Reason?Listen

1)There are a lot of games that are both in the PS3 and the 360 and the 360 counts as a 90+ and the PS3 one a 80+ just because the PS3 game was released some months later(GRAW2,Colin Mc Rae DiRT,many others).

2)There are absolutely heaps of Live Arcade games in the Xbox list over 70 and 80.Admittedly theres some PSN games too but far less and to be brutally fair the less that 50Mb Live games can hardly compete with the GT5P ,Warhawk ,Wipeout HD ,Siren and other PSN offerings.We are comparing here apples and oranges ,basically ,but the Live oranges are very numerous and distorsionate the raw numbers.

3)THe PS1 games in the store arent counted.The better example ....Castlevania Symphony of the Night is in both plattforms but only counts as a 90+ in the 360 as the PSN game is a PS3/PSP offering.This is absolutely unfair ,as many 360 offerings are old games(Rez,Soul Calibur,many more) yet the PS3 cant count the old PS1 games in its gamerankings numbers.

4)Many of the games that make the difference in the total numbers are old iterations of the sports franchises ,and old games as GRAW1 and Condemned1.While Condemned 1 could be argued as a different game ,I think nobody in its sense would imply the 360 library is better because having Madden 06 and Madden 07 ,Tiger Woods 06 and 07 ,NBA Live ,NBA 2k,NHL ,NHL 2K ,Fifa and the awful PES6 from years past.The same with GH2(a solid 90+ in the 360 list while the better GH3 has less in both PS3 and 360..),GRAW1 and a couple other games.


All this makes that the metacritic comparisions should be vastly adjusted.

Right now ,the PS3 and the 360 have comparable libraries.The 360 has better JRPG(although not a single AAA title there) and the PS3 has better plattform games ,better music games(it adds Singstar to the Rockband and GH),and some things more original (Eye of Judgement).All in all ,comparable.
