The 360 has some solid exclusives through 2010-2012, but it was drowned out by Xbox's huge push with Kinect. 

Then we see Ps3 really pumping out the great exclusives during that same time so the narrative changed. 

See, Kinect wasn't my thing so I just ignored it, since it did not come at the expense of the system's "core" output. 

I'd consider games like Halo 4, Gears 3, Witcher 2, etc a hell of a lot better than just "solid" but I suppose game quality's always going to be subjective. For me personally, 360 had a better and more interesting lineup of console exclusives than PS3.

Don't get me wrong, I loved all those games you mentioned, but there was certainly a steady decrease in core Xbox exclusives and new IP's around that time compared to 2005-2010. I was a Kinect owner and really enjoyed it for games like Dance Central, but I understand why some were annoyed with Xbox's 1st party focus on either their core franchises of Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, and then Kinect games.
