Because their libraries (while similar) are different in many ways. I can't play any Killzones, Uncharteds, LBPs, or God of Wars on an Xbox 360 - or Halo, Forzas/PGrs/Fables on the PS3. Therefore, the libraries are different in many ways, making it very easy to claim either has a better library. |
Eh, it was still plenty easy for people to claim that back when they both didn't have many differences too.
You'd be surprised just how much brand effects opinion... and not in a consious way either.
Look at companies that make a branded food, and then put the same food in lesser named brand as well, like cambells.
When given both, to someone for a taste test they often rank stuff widely differently.
Heck, even packaging can VASTLY change your opinion of stuff... hence why people pay a LOT of money to figure out just the right ice cream package or wine bottle.
Actual enjoyment of a game is muuuuuch less based on the qualties of the game then people realize. Though most people hate to admit that because of the pure madness that brings towards talking about your personal opinion of something.
Since a game you hated, might of been awesome to you had you been in a better mood when you played it, and the cover been different raising different expectations.
