Now I know each console have their own editors but I thought Greg Miller (PS3) was too hard on the PS3 and Hillary Goldstein (360) not harsh enough on the 360.

Greg bemoaned at the lack of exclusives on the PS3 in the last half of 2010 and the dissapointment of GT5 while Hilary moaned about Medal of Honour (WTF) and XBL getting worse?!

I thought the complaints were misplaced. PS3 while not getting as many exclusives in the second half of the year could still rely on some fantastic third party games. Just because a game is exclusive doesn't mean it's any good, in fact some of the best games of 2010 were third party. Maybe Sony should've spaced out the exclusives better.

Now onto the 360.....no mention at the lack of exclusives? How could Hilary have overlooked this number one problem?! And when I mean exclusives I don't just mean console or timed exclusive or better versions of third party games. That is the number one issue for the 360 right now as far as being a hardcore gamer goes.

But judging by the two articles I think it's very telling at the current state the consoles find themselves in. 360 is heading in the Wii direction and doing it very well while the PS3 is going all out for the hardcore market in 2011. I think tactically Sony are doing well but stratigically I'm going to give my vote to MS. I'm just glad to own both consoles.

You contradict yourself enormously.

You berate the PS3 critic, saying that non-exclusive games are still good games.  Then you turn around and say that the Xbox 360 critic should have mentioned the lack of Xbox 360 supposed true exclusives, because clearly, console exclusives are not good games that help define a platform.

So, yeah.

Thanks, interesting stuff. Kinda wanna see the more detailed report now, lol.

This is why sites like IGN are a joke. They go about their "analysis" and only decide to include big titles in their arguments.

(22) retail exclusives in 12 months. Just about 2 exclusives per month. (10) of them scored 75 or above and (11) scored 70 or above. (7) at 80 or above and (2) at 90 or above. (16) of the (22) scored 60 or above. 

Lack of exclusives was not the problem. The problem was that the variety was so varied to the point where only a handful appealed to Greg Miller and if he didn't like them they simply didn't exist.

MLB The Show is one of those examples since almost every year it scores 85 or higher and the last 2 years it scored over a 90% yet it is always omitted.

They need to do their jobs correctly and realize that all games count whether they liked them or not.

Everyone needs to accept that Kinect is better than Move based on what?

Sales numbers?

What point are you trying to make?   Are you still trying to portay this idea that Kinect has better games for it?   Going by Metacritic,  Move has better, more, quality games for it when compared to Kinect.  Whether the controls are tacked on, or not it doesn't matter.
