PS3 had more and better exclusives... the only games I miss on my PS3 is Gears and Halo... of course others Nintendo games I miss too.

It's all a matter of preference. When I count the must have games on 360 and PS3 for me, 360 wins 20-10 most because it has more then 1 good racing game, and a lot of great JRPG exclusives. Everyone has their own preference, I can understand why some people even think Wii is the best now that I played Skyward Sword.

lol PS3 had more and better JRPG exclusives too.

had? What are you talking about? Only really good JRPG on the PS3 to date is Valkyria Chronicles. Folklore and WKC are good, but no better then Blue Dragon or The Last Remnant.

360 has Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery (which I think is great), Magna Carta 2, Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnant, and it had Star Ocean for a bit. The first 3 I consider AAA, or great, the others are just good. Top that off with some good WRPG exclusives (dear god, NOT FABLE! That game is shit), 360 is the RPG machine this gen.

but next year....that might balance it out a bit with 2 Tales of __ exclusives.

Well... Tales of Vesperia ans Star Ocean is just timed exclusives, these games was already released in PS3...  Magna Carta 2 is Korean RPG (but I can live puting it in JRPG).

Now the list...

Valkyria Chronicles  *AAA
Demon Souls  *AAA
White Knight Chronicles *A Metascore 60
White Knight Chronicles  2 *A

Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice *A 78 - B+
Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten *AA 80, A-, just
Trinity: Souls of Zill O'll  *Meh D, 55 Metascore
Folklore *A - 75 B
Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland *A C, 65 score
Hyperdimension Neptunia *Meh F, 45 metascore
Ar tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel *A C-, 62 metascore
Cross Edge *A D-, 52 metascore
Trinity Universe *A C-, 62 Metascore
Yakuza 3 *AA
Yakuza 4 *AA Not even JRPG's, you're just so wrong

Last Rebellion *Meh F, Metascore 44

Well... I forgote some of course.

You can make any list you want but the PS3 have more JRPG than X360... and for me the Valkyria Chronicles and Demons Souls is better than any other title in the box.

 

Wow, overcompensating? When you make a list which includes Cross Edge, and 2 other games with F ratings, and claim they are all A, you are desperate.

Tales of Vesperia is 360 exclusive last I checked. No english version for PS3.

As for the rest of those games, they are average, not good. 44-75 is not A, it's F-B, and this is not a list of C or so games rated games. This is why I didn't include stuff like Project Sylpheed for 360, it's not A.

Stop waisting time, 360 pwns PS3 in terms of JRPG exclusives. I did forget Dark Souls (not my type of game), and I'm surprised a Disgaea broke 80/100 when Blue Dragon did not, but that still limits the list to 5 good/great PS3 exclusive JRPG's (Folklore is decent too). Compare this to 360's (Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Magna Carta 2, Infinite Undiscovery, and The Last Remnant), well it's actually not too far off (5 compared to 6).

I'll admit, you have raised a fair point, and I can see why I might have an overinflated 360 view (like you do PS3) because my opinions typically match GT's, which gives 360 JRPG's high reviews. However I still say 360 is still better :P

Metascritics isn't fair to RPG's, so if you look at Gametrailers, IGN (like osama did) and VGC themselves you will see that of these 11 (+1 to make it 6-6) good/great Console RPG exclusives, they rate more like this: (IGN/GT/VGC)


Valkyria Chronicles - 91.6 90/91/94
Demon's Souls 90 - 94/89/87
Tales of Vesperia 86 - 82/88/88
Lost Odyssey 85 - 82/88/-
Disgaea 4 82.3 - 85/75/87
Folklore 79.6 - 90/72/77
Blue Dragon 77 - 79/75/-
Infinite Undiscovery 74.5 - 71/78/-
Magna Carta 2 69.5 - 68/71
Ar Tonelico 67.5 - 60/-/75
Disgaea 3 67 - 67/-/-
The Last Remnant -66  53/80/65

Which is PS3/PS3/360/360/PS3/PS3/360/360/360

So it's a matter of preference, but to be fair, pre 2009, 360 dominated, and PS3 has only been catching up since (and will catch up with Graces and Xillia).
