Am I seeing this right? The 360 only had one retail exclusive? And to add insult to injury, it's a port of a PC game.

Akai Katana is a retail 360 exclusive. a Cave shooter I believe.

Insult to injury? witcher 2 is  a 360 game, critically acclaimed, and it isnt available on PS3. I see nothing other then a win for 360 in that regard. 

And the gap between digital and retail is closing fast. May I remind you of the sales of Minecraft 360 compared to the sales of Starhawk for example? Games are games, regardless how you buy them. 

This list doesnt judge, simply compares numbers of critical acclaim. 



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

what does retail prove??? A digital can be great like a retail title. And what does port prove?? The WItcher is not on the pS3 so its good to mention it on the Xbox .

I remember a time when Sony fans were making the same arguements with Warhawk and Wipeout when they were PSN only and when games like Star Ocean finally came a year later and folks said those didn't count...what changed?

Witcher 2 is a port, but its not on PS3. 

When Star Ocean came out a year later on PS3.....360 allready had it. You comparison would make sense if 360 didnt have the game allready.

Okay...so basically my point still stands, it seems the rules seem to get changed whenever it suits the agenda being driven.

@ Adj

Wha??? i didn't say you accuse me of anything. i said y are u asking me these questions if i never said it. you think because a few fanboys used a broken philosophy a long time ago, you can use that same philosophy now???

fact is: digital games are as relavant as retail. this is true. nothings has changed. the people that said otherwise are wrong.

why u tryin to downplay digital games???

I hope you're not suprised by that... all of these other threads made by Sony exclude console exclusives and Kinect titles, so it was bound to happen in one way or another in this one.

out of the 8 games in my sig right now are 5 digital so I think it's safe to say I'm not looking down on digital. I'm asking why have the rules suddenly changed from "Retail is king" to "Digital is where it's at"?
