Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Metacritic: 93 - Sold: 10.72M
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword - Metacritic: 93 - Sold: 1.5M

It appears that Nintendo is the more successful first party publisher, both in critical acclaim and sales at the top level. But hey, guys, why do we need to argue ala "My console's better than your console nah nah nah nah nah *rasp*"?


I beg to differ,

Super Mario Kart WII is nearly 30million and New super mario brothers WII is nearly 23million. They should be in number one and two slots :P

Edit: Oh just realised you were listing by Metacritic and not sales, my bad!

Is there any doubt in anyones mind that Sony is the King of console exclusives?

How are they able to keep these exclusives coming left and right.Since the Wii and 360 are no casual consoles im forced to just play on my PS3 now.Not to mention they have Jak 4 another exclusive and Sly 4 coming out 2012.

So can anyone tell me how does Sony keep making these AAA exclusives come out like it's nothing?


So you're implying that the PS3 is for casual gamers and that it fills your casual gamer needs? =3

Uh lol no I ment that I can't play my 360 because they don't cater to Hardcore gamers only casual now lmao.

Sony is the only company atm that actually caters every type of gamer.Also,I am a hardcore gamer I am multi-tasking Uncharted 3 with Skyward Sword and Resistance 3.

What is a hardcore gamer?

Means his gaming chair is made out of bricks & he likes to put his feet on burning cole & being whiped whilst gaming

OT: So far, Sony has made a rather small amount of exclusives that have appealed to me, GoW 3 & Ratchet & Clank were the only ones, and the Ratchet & Clank studio isn't even owned by Sony.

Thank you for the answer!

You're quite welcome.

I'm just gonna skip all the comments to avoid the incoming rage.

Anywho, I think Sony is without a doubt, the king of exclusives. Granted, having a lot of exclusives doesn't mean their all AAA perfect games but for Sony's case, this is the case.

Most, if not all the Exclusives that came out for the PS3 this year were met with positive or universal acclaim. Sadly, most did not sale as well as they should have, but that doesn't take away the fact that they are excellent titles for PS3 fans and have a great variety. From FPS (killzone 3), to over the top racing (motorstorm apocalypse), to family friendly platformer (LBP2), open world adventure (Infamous 2) and cinematic action adventure (Uncharted 3) and more, Sony had it all.

I can't wait for the next titles coming up next year. Twisted Metal, Jak 4 and sorcery (crossing my fingers for these two), the Last of Us, the Jak Collection and starhawk just to name a few. I am a very happy PS3 owner.

Exclusives today are different than they were 5-10 years ago. It's not just about the game anymore. It's about the console and developers now it seems.

Oh you Sony fans only say that because MS actually created something that appeals to casual audiences. Sony actually puts out more casual software than MS. They have to because few developers support their Move device.

Its fine and dandy that Sony tries to cater to all audiences, but they don't deliver the best games in all genres. MS, Nintendo, and Sony all have their own flavor. Saying one is better than other is just personal taste.

Don't you know sales don't matter. Especially when you're the fan of games that sell less.

Sony and Nintendo are pretty much tied in my opinion. People tend to forget about all the first party awesomeness on the DS in these arguments.

More pressingly, if Sony has so many exclusives then why must Sony fans always resort to listing imaginary games like the unannounced and completely unconfirmed Jak 4?


Dude it's pretty ovious Naughty Dog is placing a developer on Jak 4.Every HD collection has gone on and got a sequal.

Why would Jak be the first to not have one.Not to mention Naughty Dog's best franchise is Jak&Daxter and which holds te spot as my #1 game of all time.

We already knew God of War 3 and TLG were coming, so:

sequal announced after a HD collection?

 

God of War Origins - no

Sly -  yes

Tomb Raider -  yes

Prince of Persia - no

Splinter Cell - no

Metal Gear Solid -  planned for next generation

Beyond Good and Evil - planned for next generation

Resident Evil - yes
