If you dont want to worry about bans then you should keep such negitive comments about any console to yourself.

So people aren't allowed to state the truth around here?

Define truth

The fact that Microsoft's had 12 years in the industry and thus far have only come up with two notable game series and their both in the only genre that Microsoft really has a solid grounding in ie. the shooter genre while in comparison Sony's exclusive offerings have better Metacritic scores in every other genre and have won more Game of the Year awards.

Its also fact that Since Sonys entrance into gaming, they too have only had two blockbuster game series. GT and Uncharted. Uncharted was picked up this gen and GT has devolved from a 2 game per gen to just 1, with a lower meta average to boot. The rest have either been abandoned, dropped off in popularity over the years, or dont sell enough to be considered real blockbusters. MS games also have a slightly higher metacritic average then Sony games. 74 to 73. A slight edge, but a edge nonetheless.

You see its not actually fact, its just my take on history, which your doing as well. It ain't fact so much as a personalized view of a broad picture.

But I will say this...it is very blind to confuse 360s popularity with shooters for a lack of variety in its genres. 360 has made great strides in genre diversity, especially with XBLA. Shooters get the spotlight, but so what?

By the way....COD is also the best selling series on PS3. In fact COD takes up 4 out of 5 best selling PS3 games of all time......GTA 4 is the last one. Not a single exclusive. Go figure.
