The PS3 has some of the best exclusives this gen with games like Uncharted 2, Infamous, Killzone 2, God of War 3, MGS4, etc. Most are famous for their single player or online functions. But are Ps3 exclusives lacking offline multiplayer in comparison to 360's exclusives.
The 360's best selling exclusives are Halo 3 and Gears , both are AAA titles and both have offline multiplayer. It also has lower selling exclusives like L4D , Perfect Dark, Forza, PGR, etc with offline multiplayer also. However, when you look at the PS3 exclusives, the amount of offline multiplayer seems a little low. The online exclusives that sold well AND have offline multiplayer are LBP and Resistance . The PS3 also has exclusives like Motorstorm 2 and Modnation Racers that have offline multiplayer, however they had rather disappointing sales. Killzone 2, a AAA title, could have been a lot better with some offline multiplayer.
Hopefully Killzone 3 has offline multiplayer. SOCOM: 4 has confirmed co op, but is it online co op only? I hope not. Speaking of future titles, the PS3 has LBP 2 and GT5 that will most likely have offline multiplayer. Twisted Metal and Motorstorm 3 also look to have offline multiplayer.MOVE looks like it will make offline multiplayer more common on the PS3. But will move be successful? I hope so. The future could be bright if games like SOCOM 4 and Killzone 3 enables offline multiplayer which the PS3 really needs.
