This proves the Xbox 360 needs the PC less than the PS3 does. It also proves two things, the PS3 isn't always the better partner to a PC and the 360 library doesn't completely rely on the PC/nor is it mostly PC ports. If you take the analysis further you will see that the 360 has 6 90+ games which aren't tied to the PC or Sports/Music games whilst the PS3 only has two. Furthermore the PS3 lacks any 90+ shooters of its own whilst the 360 has two. Even with the exclusive games coming this year, the 360 will likely still maintain its numerical lead both overall and in the crucial 90+ arena over the PS3.



Tease.
