Why such a huge gap in quality between Playstation and Xbox exclusives?

So quality is decided by the sales of a game? And that the PS3 had nothing to play other than multiplat games for teh first 2 years is BS that I never understood. WHen they had games like MGS4, Resistance 1 and 2, Vallyria Chronicles, Motor Storm PR, MLB The Show Rachet and Clank, LBP, Naruto UNS, Folklore, GT: Prologe, Uncharted 1, Heavenly Sword etc and those are ALL exclusives so that no game stuff was just something others came up with.

This gen both started strong thanks to multiplat games and both have some decent exclusives so they are pretty much in the same boat right now if you ask me.

quality is not determined by sales, they are a reflection. 

Those were 11 exclusives that came out in the 2 year period following the PS3's release, but most towards the end. Just a few were actually in the first year. MS did release twice as many during that period.

But I just named 13 and didn't even name them all that came out in the first two years of the PS3's release. Heck they had 13 exclusives in their first year alone(For reference the 360 had 7 in it's first year) and then over 20 their second year. I think Ms released 44 exclusive games their first 2 years compared to Sony only releasing 34(nowhere near the twice as many you mentioned) So again the "no games" stuff was just bs. Granted not every game appealed to everyone but they had games.

Now I agree that sales is a refelection of quality though. Even though say Lost Odyessey easily the best RPG on the Xbox 360 did not sell huge numbers it was still a very good quality game. Where as wii sports sold over 10 million and is not of the highest quality by any means at all. Sales sometimes reflect quality other times they reflect what is popular at the time, then they can also relect what is most afforadable as well. Sales have so many factors it is crazy.
