I went through the list one by on on the Xbox360 and PS3, A large amount of the games listed are Japan only JRPG releases and some are DLC for the Xbox. Oh and 5 DDR games that were released for the Xbox before the PS3 was out.
There are also many that are listed as exclusives on either system that are not exclusives or were timed exclusives.

Either way, I do see your point. There are about 10-15 exclusive releases for the X-box that did not release on anything else that I think may be worth a look at cheap prices. I also have a lot more of an eclectic game preference then most people I know.
I will have to say that the argument for not getting a Xbox360 because most "Good" exclusives are available on the PC is a valid excuse. Of those 10-15 titles that I found that looked like they might be decent on the Xbox360, none of them individually or all together make it worth the expense of an additional console. Now this is just my view on the subject. Others who look at the list may find 50 exclusive they want to try and may make them want to buy an Xbox360.

The Wii has hundreds of exclusives that may be worth a look into, but most of them are cheap 5 dollar games in a 50 dollar package whipped up by EA. That does not forgo the argument that it does not have any major exclusive that Joe Blow or Tina Fae thinks makes it worth the investment. Or even that a PC has 50billion or so free flash games on it that you can't play on anything but a PC, is not going to make a console gamer need to buy a PC.

The argument about "Good" console exclusives on the Xbox360 that can be bought on the PC devalues the worth of the Xbox360 to certain people is based on value, not quantity, of said exclusives.

*the new up and coming exclusive for the Xbox360 "Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad" is more than enough reason for any 14yr pervert to want to buy an Xbox360*

Personal preferences are one thing and I respect that.  It's when PS fanboys (and this does happen often on the internet) say that the 360 doesn't have many quality exclusives as if it's fact when it's clear that the 360's exclusives are prized by it's userbase given the high sales. So we are in agreement.

360 exclusives that sold over 1 million: Halo 3, Gears of War 2, Halo 3 ODST, Forza Motorsport 2, Fable II, Saints Row, Forza Motorsport 3, Project Gotham Racing 4, Dead Rising, Halo Wars, Crackdown, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Dead or Alive 4.

And in 2010, Crackdown 2, Alan Wake, Halo Reach and Fable III are all no brainers for the 1 million club.

Not one of these games consist of Onechanbara or Burger King. The perverted 14 year olds would rather buy DoA4 instead. lol. :p

I would say we are only in agreement to a point. This point being that you can't rule out a system without looking into it's library. That and the pint that Xbox360 does have some decent exlclusives, but not worth it for me. Here is a small example.

Of those 14 titles that are million+ sellers you listed and 4 to be million+ sellers, I only find 5 to be on interest to me.  Crackdown 1&2, PD:Zero,  Alan Awake and Saint Row.

As for for the Halo games: I think they are all over-rated, over-hyped games to which there are far better FPS games in both story, graphics and gampley available on the PC. Neither Forza or PGR 4 interest me since I like the gameplay and feel of Gran Torismo more. I am also a bigger fan of Tekken and not a fan of DoA.  I am not about to buy a 360 for those 5 games.

We all know that perverted 12-14yr olds are the major share holders in relation to xbox ownership. At least this is the indication I get when playing any game on Xbox Live at my bros. house.

I do not agree with you that the Xbox360 has a large amount of AAA exclusives. I don't think sales and popularity of a game make it great. There are numerous games that sold into the millions that are not great games. The opposite is true as well. I do admit that they have a large amount of exclusives and some seem interesting and may be great. I am sure there are many newer gamers that may find a large amount of those games to be great games. So, we agree to a piont, and disagree to a point.
