I was naming the popular Xbox 360 exclusives, not the ones that're for the most part one shots or discontnued and with that said none of them got that good critical acclaim or good sales for that matter. 

What I'm saying is that your logic is flawed, that a game is generic because there's other games in the genre, such as the Gears and Mario argument, the same could be applied to Xbox 360 exclusives but your bias simply wouldn't allow it.

 

I never said you saw your opinion as facts, what I said was that Playstation has a wider variety of exclusives across different genres that have met better critical acclaim, that's a fact, and for you to call them generic for the reasons you have make no sense whatsoever. 

No, do you understand what I'm saying or you're acting a fool? Uncharted, you want it or not, is a copy of Tomb Raider. Treasure hunting, puzzle solving, main character modeled to show sexual appeal( for the ladies this time) and survival type of gun toting(scarce ammo). Generic = not original. Doesn't mean it's not good.

And also don't compare Xbox 360 games sales with PS3. You'll be trounced.

Now you're gonna try to tell me that LBP Kart is original. And a platformer game spinned off into a Karting game is original.

PS All-Stars is also original too, right?

Don't read and perceive only what you want. You see Xbox as first partyless platform, I see Play Station as a generic farm platform.

Our opinions differ that's all, I'm not offending your parents or your honor.


I never stated PS All Stars was original, nor did I say LBP Kart. I was refferring to the original LBP which played nothing like Mario other than being a platformer, so how was it generic? 

Also, the games that were met with "critcal acclaim" that you posted all had sub 80% on Metacritic and didn't sell very well at all. 

The Xbox exclusives outside of Halo, Forza, and Gears sell like shit and all weren't exactly original at all.

http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/?name=KameoKameo - Bombed, don't know much about the game tho. 

http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/?name=Blue+dragonBlue Dragon (Turn Based Anime Inspired RPG? Dragon Quest rip off!!! -  Your logic.)

http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/?name=Lost+OdyLost Odysessy (turn based RPG set in anime verse, generic - Your logic.)

http://www.vgchartz.com/game/18652/tales-of-vesperia/Vesperia - Funny you brought this up considering that the Tales series is exclusive to PS atm. So I guess that's one non-generic PS exclusive, huh?

 

And no one downplayed Forza to begin with, it's a racing simulator and you're right, its the highest rated racing sim of this gen, however should I call it original? Nope. It does things better than other sims? Isn't that why you preffer it?  First person science fiction shooter? Was done before Halo. 

 

The same can be applied to Uncharted than, sure it borrowed from Tomb Raider but the actual gameplay and execution is different, hence it's more praised and sells more than Tomb Raider. 

 

Out of all the Xbox exclusives, Gears of War is the only one that brought something new to the genre and was non-generic.  So by your logic the only non-generic game for Xbox 360 is Gears and some indie games? Meanwhile the PS brand has just as much Indie support and more AAA exclusives over different platforms and more non-generic by your logic....
