I don't know what you're doing here then because the Thread title is "issue with the 'exclusives' argument".

If anyone asks me if Ico & SOTC are exclusive to the PS3, I will say no.
If anyone asks me if DC Universe is an exclusive to the PS3, I will say no.
If anyone asks me if MGS1 is an exclusive to the PS3, I will say no.

 

That's just my stance on it. I have a PS2, PS3, PC and I can play every single game that the "360 has and the PS3 does not". How some call that a 360 exclusive is beyond me as I ..very obviously don't need a 360.

The OP specifically says the point is to move away from just exclusives, because it filters out some really great titles that the rival platform doesn't have.

I know its hard, but try to stop living by that word.

Is SOTC on PS3 but not 360? Yes. Is DC Universe on PS3 but not 360? Yes. If its a PS3 title and 360 doesn't have it, count it. Its a differentiating feature. Mention it. Nevermind exclusivity.

so in short..

..no matter what set of stupid rules you decide to use: ps3 >> 360.  whether you want to compare true exclusives or just consolve exclusives there simply is no comparing the two.  ps3 has a massive amount of additional support.

hmm,. maybe if we change the rules yet again to included timed exclusives...   you know, because 360 has bioshock and ps3 doesn't didn't!
