the 360 line-up cant be that bad!! i thougt there was more

There are but some people want to put on blinders and pretend that PC/360 games don't exist to make the PS3's lineup look better compared to the 360's. 

Recently I created a list of available and upcoming exclusives which I would be interested in, just in case I'll buy an HDTV and a HD console some day:

 

360 exclusives: Castle Crashers, Dead Rising, Fable II, Kameo: Elements of Power, Lost Odyssey, Star Ocean: The Last Hope

PS 3 exclusives: Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Flower, Gran Turismo 5, Heavenly Sword, Heavy Rain, Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Valkyria Chronicles, White Knight Chronicles, The Last Guardian, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Yakuza 3, L.A. Noire

You can't deny that the list of 360 games which are also available for PC is overwhelming. The list of pure 360 exclusives (i.e. not on PC) is very good but at least in my opinion not as impressive as Sony's. If you are a gamer like me who dosn't play any shooters and has played dozens of fantastic RTS games on PC, pure 360 exclusives like Halo 3 or Halo Wars or any future Halo games don't make you buy the console.

I know that many 360 owners see the 360/PC similarity as an advantage over the other consoles, but ever since the first Xbox was launched (which I own) I considered Microsoft's strategy of bringing lots of PC games to their console - and vice versa - as a weakness. Sometimes MS really surprise me when they decide to even port games like Viva Pinata to PC (I think this franchise could've become a great pure exclusive 360 franchise if it just had stayed exclusively on the console). In my opinion Nintendo and Sony had and will have the better lineup of pure exclusives in both generations where MS was involved.
