I am a big Xbox supporter but I do agree with a few posters in regards to Microsoft needing more exclusive titles. Just nothing along the lines of what Sony has pumped out lately. That is just too many exclusives all in one year and when you combine that with the hundreds of great 3rd party titles that release each year it is impossible for those exclusives to realistically make any major impact sales wise.
4-5 exclusives a year would be perfect IMO. However...when you look at the digital download space, Microsoft has lots of exclusive XBLA games so maybe they do have the right idea. I mean XBLA games can`t possibly be as costly from a publishing standpoint and most their retail exclusives sell fairly well or by the truck loads. So who really has it on the money? Sony and/or Microsoft??
As far Xbox and variety goes...it does indeed have a nice balance IMO. The best Shooter`s, Action-Adventure`s, Racer`s, RPG`s etc. are all on the system save for a few PS3/Wii titles here and there.
When you have big titles from so many big franchises all coming out in 2012 anyways who really has time to really worry about this though?
How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...
Xbox 360 wants to Kinect & PS3 wants to Move! Why are both systems having such relationship problems? The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.
