So really, thats an admission that PS can't stand up by itself against Xbox?

Because in a strict PS vs Xbox debate, neglecting these types of games seems silly. Bringing in a PC to fight PS battles.....thats what these types of replies sound like.

No. You can't play PS3 games on PC... you need the PS3 for most of games.

You can think in this way: 360 + PC vs PS3 + PC what give you more games? Remember EVERYBODY HAVE A PC.

More like 360 > PS3. True since it does have more 70-79, 80-89, and 90+ metacritic games, by significant margins I might add


LOL, is this guy talking seriously?

Wow, some people are in a complete desperation,  and it's funny and sad at the same time.

I don't give any credit to Metacritics, but anyway... the average score in Ps3 games has been higher than 360 every single year.

If the argument is what it is exclusive and what not, the answer is very simple, and it's been already said. Exclusive is for a game only playable on one platform. If a game is playable in multiple platforms, even of the same company, automatically is not an exclusive. PC has to be considered the same as the consoles because it's a gaming platform too.
So, Starcraft II is a PC exclusive but Diablo III not. Halo Reach is an exclusive but Fable 3 not. The last of us is an exclusive, but Final Fantasy XIV not. It's very simple....



I think some people are forgetting the fact that everyone has a pc. A lot of people don't realize how many games they're able to play on a pc or maybe they just choose not to. Either way that option is still available. Ps3 games like God of War or Uncharted won't ever be coming to xbox and probably wont' be on pc for the near future- the only way to play those games is on that system.

Boo hoo left 4 dead isn't on ps3 - so i bought it on steam instead. Crisis averted -_- And I didn't even have to upgrade my computer for that game.

u can spin it any way u want the ps3 still has a more diverse and longer list of exclusives then the 360 AND its not stopping anytime soon. Both have a great list of games and it comes to taste but at the end of the day the 360 isnt getting any more exclusives.


Fable Anniversary would like to say hello.  Also even if that where true there are still tons of XBLA exclusives that will be released before the 360 stops being produced.



OMG! This should be made into a comic or something. lol!

I think the whole thing is overblown. For instance GTA-SA; which version did the majority play? For the vast majority, they will have a primary platform which they game on by choice or necessity.

fable anniversary lol...



Don't knock it until you tried it.  Anyway the 360 still has a 82 million copy lead when it comes to physical software sales and that gap is probably bigger when it comes to digital games since it has the best selling digital game in Minecraft.



Snaps to the OP. With us moving into an era where people are using more and more tablets and laptops becoming the common just shows that not everyone has a beastly PC to play those games. I have 2 laptops and I can't even play Alan Wake which I bought through Steam in its sale. I also like the comfort of a couch which is somthing a PC set up will never offer. So games that come out for either Sony or MS consoles and also for PC should stay away from the conversation.



I'm sorry for Jim. R.I.P. dude
