I generally agree with this review. The one exception to that agreement is the implication through "ever-increasing library of exclusives" that the PS3 has a solid number of high-quality exclusives.

At this stage it doesn't have those exclusives yet, and MGS4 alone (massive as it is, its from a niche genre) wont fix that.

But they are right about the PS3's media capabilities. I was messing around with a buddy's PS3 the other day and its pretty nifty.

Uncharted, Ratchet & Clank, etc. say hai!

And seriously, you're reading far too much into his comment. All he said was that the ps3 will continue to get more exclusives over and above what it already has. Take the aforementioned and add in MGS4, LBP, Resistance 2, etc. The ps3 is recieving quite a few good releases over the next 4-5 months.

Based on Metacritic (which isn't perfect, but its the best we've got) the PS3 doesn't have a AAA exclusive (other than the very recent addition of MGS4.  This of course included Uncharted and R&C.  We are constantly getting the whole "just wait until all the PS3's big exclusives come" line all over the forums (which can FINALLY be put down after MGS4).

But whilst they didn't do it with XMB, it appears they HAVE included potentially good exclusives and the potential of Home in their score.

 


 Yeah, because anything under 90 on gamerankings is horrible. :|

And both Uncharted and R&C would probably be over 90% on GR if you ignored GameSpot's insanely low scores (8.0 and 7.5 respectively).  Uncharted is at 89.8, and GR itself rounds up to 90% when you actual go to Uncharted's page.

Though I don't know why I'm arguing the numbers.  The fact is that the ps3 has some very good exclusives, with even more on the way.

Edit: Whoops, mixed up MC and GR.  But my point still stands, lol.
