1. The 360 has far more games on metacritic at
80+. : 184 v 145
85+ : 80 v 71
90+ : 26 v 19
2. This years line up is far in excerss of last years plus natal plus price cut.
People talk about the decline of the 360 like its sales have collapsed... the sales are down 5% this year (which is actually well within the margins of error) this in the face of a very aggressive pricing and advertising campaign from Sony. Dont believe the hype.

2. So are you telling me that the history of the XBOX includes 2009 and 2010 and that's it?
1. I know I said I wouldn't but I feel I need to clarify. You agree that the PS3 has been on shelves for 4 years where the XBOX has been out for 5?
Average per year:
80+. : 36.8 v 36.25
85+ : 16 v 17.75
90+ : 5.2 v 4.75
And seeing how we're talking about a year in particular, not overall, I think it's safe to say that there is no 'excess' involved here and the 360 will need to go above and beyond it's own averages if it's going to be considered the 'biggest year in XBOX history.'
Also what hype? I've seen one PS3 ad on TV all holiday season. I'm going by the way the generation is going, every console is down except the PS3 at the moment, it's not going to suddenly change any time soon.

So the 360 and PS3 are virtually identical on metacritic averages per year then.. thanks.. you intimated earlier the PS3 was far in excess.
One ad on TV all season!! wtf!? where do you live? what do you watch?
The PS3 has been blitzing the TV ads in the UK over the holidays and continues to do so now.

Australia, and I don't watch a lot of commercial TV.. But again it's Australia, Sony still have a relatively firm grasp on the minds of the public down here so yeah.. I did see billboards and bus stop ads though.
