Forums - Gaming - PS3 has best library of all time. Agree or Disagree?

"According to long-running Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu, the console with the best overall line-up of games isn't a celebrated classic like the SNES, the Sega Dreamcast or the Atari 2600 -- it's the Playstation 3.

Famitsu ranked the consoles according to the number of "Gold"-rated games they received, an award which corresponds to a review score of 32/40 or better. The Playstation 3 achieved a rate of 45%, corresponding to 77 golds out of a total of 171 reviewed games, while the Xbox 360 came a close second with 43%. The Wii placed further down the table at eighth place.

Even in the handheld market -- where Sony has been struggling of late -- the PSP came out on top: it placed fourth, just behind the Gamecube, and ahead of all the other portable consoles on the list. Bringing up the rear was the Sega Game Gear, an early 90s portable machine, which achieved a total of no gold-rated games whatsoever. "

 From a diversuity perspective, considerring the fact that niche & casual games almost never get awesome reviews, I personally think that should go to either the PS2 or the DS. What do u guys think? Looking at the current library, don't include Move in ur calculations cuz its not out yet.

PS2 has the best and the biggest :P



Posted a little earlier, if we use this measure, isn't the gamecube and xbox above ps2?



 

1. PS2
2. DS
3. SNES
4. PS1
5. NES
6a. Xbox 360
6b. PS3



The ranking was based on "percentage", PS2 had more titles

IMO PS3 Has The Best Library This Gen.



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords 

the way they made this list is stupid.

They used percentage of games tested above a 32 score...

So a console with one solid game rated 8/10 gets a 100% rating and is no. 1. A console like the PS2 with thousands of games has a weaker library, becuase some of those thousands were not that great... It is a very stupid way to chose best library ever.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Very much disagree, that honor goes to either the SNES or PS2. Really a toss up between those two.

Also, Famitsu could not be more overrated.



1) PS2
2) PS1
3) SNES
4) DS
5) Others

Is my personal list. I cant really split 360/PS3/NES and never played the 2600 or other consoles.

PS2 is miles ahead of the competition aswell for me. RPG/Racers/Platformers and some decent shooters. The King of consoles.
