Do you predict a tight race between 360 and PS3 next year?

Clearly you're an unbiased observer so we should all listen carefully to your thoughts.

facts not opinion are.

Sonys game development capability is what 10 or 20 times MSs.  aka they make more games.

They own more ips.

Their exclusives are better, as CGI said according to Meta not me. 

 

 

 

 

Sony has more studios, Microsoft has more money.  There's a difference in philosophy here though, Microsoft could fund 10-20x the internal studios Sony could if that was their goal.

Microsoft's games sell far, far better though.  I mean if we look at the top 5 for each 1st party this gen...

 

Wii

1. Wii Sports (52.23m)*
2. Wii Play (24.98m)
3. Wii Fit (22.77m)
4. Mario Kart Wii (18.85m)
5. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (8.93m)

 

Xbox 360

1. Halo 3 (10.45m)
2. Gears of War (5.98m)
3. Gears of War 2 (5.37m)
4. Forza Motorsport 2 (4.07m)*
5. Halo 3 ODST (3.68m)

 

PlayStation 3

1. Resistance: Fall of Man (3.64m)
2. Motorstorm (3.51m)*
3. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (3.32m)*
4. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (2.78m)*
5. LittleBig Planet (2.71m)*

 

*had hardware bundles

 

...there's really no way around it, Microsoft's had a far, far more successful 1st party program than Sony this gen.

why stop at 5 ? iam guessing you choose 5 casue Sony have more games.  List them all.  Or make this after GT5 and GoW3 come out but then it wont be in 360s favor. 

LOL HAlo 3 did not have a hardware bundle, my local Best Buy still have the HAlo3 elite for sale.  

By the way GT5p is at +4m and Forza2 at 3.5 according to PD and Turn Ten.
