What made you pick the top 8 instead of top 10? 8 usually isn't s number that naturally appears when people make these lists.

Ironically the best selling PS exclusives are established IPs....

How generous of Sony to spend millions to fund your list wars on forums :P

This thread is not about sales, don't derail the thread!!

Just making a observation. Derailing depends entiraly on people willing to quote said observation :)

My 2nd line stands.

I'll take new crappy games i might enjoy over MILKED franchises anytime.

Milked doesnt mean lacking quality, not in Halo/Forzas case anyways.

If thats what gamers want, and quality is up there, then milk away! This shows me that MS, having limited resources, at least gives their fans what they want. Sony......its like taking blind shots in the dark, hoping they land a hit.



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

Halo 4 is criminally underrated on metacritic. A couple really bad hit seeker websites gave piss poor scores for what is the best game of 2012. Halo 4 shouldn't get anything before a 9 out of 10. It's the best Halo and that says a lot because the entire Halo series is fantastic.

In your opinion*

Uncharted 3 was #9 on the PS3 list. Seriously.



I'm pretty sure Jaywood has more integrity than that. Surely, he has a better reason. Perhaps it was just a random coincidence (?)

What game will replace Halo CE on this list since it's a 2001 title?

Well the revamp uses 2011 graphics soooo ya.

Plus Halo > your opinion. Its a big franchise.

So we're looking at a 3 year span for MS with an average of 81 (or potentially below, when he removes Halo CE as he should)
Less than a year for Sony (and one of their worst ever): 79. That was called an "awful" year for Sony games. Indicative of their usual quality? I think so

Hey, PS3 years in 2006, 2007, and 2010 were no picnics either ;)

Like I've said before in this thread, Disney releases digitally remastered films every year. It's the same film.

Halo CE is the SAME game. Something needs to replace it on this list. Surely MS has released a game since 2001? Maybe not?

It's better than releasing crappy spin offs of there big games.

If Microsoft keeps whoring out Halo and Forza like that just for the money, i expect both of those IP's to die soon.
