It has nothing to do with exclusives. Microsoft certainly has more exclusives (As has been proven).
To what quality are these exclusives? Most GOOD "exclusives" (As in exclusives you would want to play as the average gamer) are also available on PC. All that this thread proves is that the 360 has a lot higher percentage of mediocre exclusives than the PS3 and a lower percentage of good exclusives. |
Sometimes percentages are useful to make a point and sometimes not.
Can you play percentages ? No but you can play games.
And you're not forced to buy the crappy exclusives (which are definitely in favour of the 360)

For a system that has been out a full year longer, you most certainly can play percentages. There is 3 games in (Three years) that are 'exclusive to the 360' with over a 90+ Metacritic. The PS3 currently has 2 in (Two years). With the possibilities of KZ2, God of War III, GT5, Uncharted 2 all looming that number looks to climb and quite possibly surpass the current 360 amount of 3.
Another almost certainty, is that the 360 (Remember with a full year extra under it's belt) has 14 titles 80+ via Meta Critic compared to the PS3 with 12 titles 80+ via Meta Critic. Even assuming only one of the above mentioned titles can achieve a 90+ Meta Critic rating (Tying the 360 at 3).
The remaining three above should achieve easily an 80+ Meta Critic rating. Which again thrusts the favor to the PS3 and gives the PS3 the edge. Considering how many games the 'Average' Video gamer will purchase, it is likely that these gamers will be most likely to be playing games from the 80+/90+ Meta Critic ratings.
Given this. The PS3 has a better array (Albeit very slightly) of exclusive games that you cannot play on any other platform.
The point of this thread may have been to shed light on the fact that the 360 has a large amount of sheer Xbox 360 exclusives, but really all it does is show how big of a disappointment much of that large library is.

The PS3 is the only console to release games in the next years ?
The rest are pure assumptions.

No. However, if you were to buy a console 'today', you would probably buy the console that is appearing like it has a good amount of exclusive games currently (Both 360/PS3 do) and will put out the most 'good' exclusive games into the future. Given that, you would choose a PS3.
And no they aren't really assumptions. To say that God of War III, Gran Turismo 5 don't appear to be possible AAA (90+ Meta Critic titles) or at the very least definite 80+ Meta critic titles is pretty laughable. Just like somebody saying Halo 3 or Gears of War 2 wouldn't be good games. And as of now Kill Zone 2 pretty much confirmed AAA status.
