Just fyi: F1 is published by Sony. You're not going to see it on the 360, to my knowledge.

There's been a F1 release for the PS3, it just didn't make a huge splash. Most people thought it was "too technical", and thus didn't appeal to the typical gamer.

F1 is also outrageously expensive and hard to find, even used, because it was only printed in small numbers, I think.  Look for "F1 PS3" on Amazon (or whereever), and you'll see what I mean.

Sony lost the rights to the F1 games hence me playing F1 2009 on my Wii for the last few weeks. Codemasters is developing the games now and F1 2010 will be on both the 360 and PS3.

 

Thanks for all the info guys. I think I'm just going to have to hire both systems before christams and see which games I enjoy the most.

 

A quick list of the 5 best exclusives for each would help. I will be playing Mass Effect due to my love of KOTOR and I'll try Uncharted 2 because I hear that it's awesome.

 

Any other recomendations apart from Halo, MGS4 and LBP?

I'm going to include a couple upcoming games, even though I don't "know" they're great... yet.

 

Top 5 exclusive, X360:

Fable 2

Halo 3

Forza 3

Gears of War 2

Mass Effect 2 (2010)

...lots of the X360 exclusives I listed are sequels of other, also great, games on the X360, meaning there's much more there.

 

Top 5 exclusive series, PS3:

Gran Turismo 5 (2010)

Uncharted 2

God of War 3

Killzone 2

...so many to choose from for the last spot... inFamous?  Yakuza 3?  Demons' Souls?  Valkyria Chronicles?  MAG?  Wide variety of titles that please gamers of specific tastes.

 

I find the RPG front particularly interesting, since there are a lot of exclusives to choose from, on either console... although MS now seems less interested than they once were, at acquiring JRPG exclusives for the 360.  That said, I find games like Infinite Undiscovery, Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, etc. pretty fun.  The PS3's list of exclusive RPGs is growing pretty fast, however... White Knight Chronicles, Valkyria Chronicles, Disgaea 3, Demons' Souls, Folklore, etc., with lots of "hopefuls" coming from Japan (e.g. Atelier Rorona) soon.
