It doesn't really matter how many crap games are on a console, as long as you don't buy them personally, as long as you get top-end games. Right now PS3 has the least of the tip top ones, but that's clearly going to change. GTA IV will be another 90+ for both PS3 and 360. MGS4 will be a 90+ for PS3. The thing that strikes me about Wii ones is that they have some good games, but they are all first party. I still will never understand why someone can't make a first-party-like game for the Wii to capitalize on the install base. I realize shovelware can be profitable, but it seems like SOMEBODY could do it...

"tip top" is funny. The difference between the Wii's top games and the PS3's top games is that I enjoyed the PS3's more. CoD4, Oblivion, and Rock Band are all above 90% and are among the best games in their genre ever (especially Rock Band). Not only that, the Wii only has a few more 90+ games and RE4 is a PS2 port (because the GC version doesn't have all of what the PS2 version does, and the Wii version only added a control option). At #6, the 2 systems tie at 88%, but the Wii game is...Okami...another PS2 port. After that the PS3 wins at every single game in the top 20 and the games are all unique. I don't know how one can objectively, using game rankings, say that the Wii lineup is better than the PS3 right now. Obviously, subjectively it depends on what games you like, but after the first couple of Wii games (all single player except Brawl), the PS3 wins every battle. Edit: The reason they tie at the #6 spot at 88% is because the PS3 also has 89% rated Orange Box and Ratchet. So at 89%+, the Wii and PS3 have 5 games each. The average of those is higher on Wii, but the quality of games is arguable. We all have our personal tastes, but one could easily enjoy Oblivion more than TP, Ratchet more than Galaxy, Rock Band more than Brawl, Orange Box more than MP3, and CoD4 more than RE4. Having played all but TP, that's how I would choose, except perhaps Galaxy over Ratchet although it's close for me. Anyway, after the top 6, the PS3 wins at every game as far as ratings average. You don't need to include shovelware into the arguement at all.


It seems like you have an argument here, but to me you are really arguing in favor of the 360 catalog, not the PS3 catalog, because then you have some exclusive titles too. All the ones you are aguing are the multi-platform ones.   But whatever. Like Is aid earlier, the PS3 exclusive ones are coming, and then this argument would work.  Just not sure it does until you can add MGS 4 and the like into it (assuming as we are that it is a 93 and up kind of game)

 


Actually, I was arguing just PS3 versus Wii. It's obvious the 360 has the best lineup (especially if you don't have a gaming PC). However, I did mention Ratchet at 89% that is exclusive. There are many exclusives in the top 20 that I did not mention, but I didn't need to because I was just comparing to Wii.
