Uncharted is basically there. And the Wii's only one is SMG. Zelda is a gc game and RE4 has been ported 3 times now it doesn't count.

 If Uncharted is 'basically' there, then you can't discount MP3 on Wii as it is only just behind Uncharted.

This is why I wonder why people call me a fanboy when I point out that the PS3 has no AAA games. I mean seriously, just look at the list. The PS3 does not have a single exclusive game in the 90's. The 360 has 5 and the Wii has 2 (3 if you count RE4).

 If it wasn't for gamespot Uncharted and Ratchet would be 90% AAA. The gamespot reviews were so shit for those two games it was unbelievable. 7.5 for R%C!!! Thats not an opinion thats just hating for no reason.

 



To be frank, you should add PC as there is an option for that.

PC Has TEN AAA games and is up there with X360.

Note: I am NOT saying that PC has better games, but the American reviewers say so.

And, someone said that X360 had 5 exclusives, I only see 4...

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

First 12 months in production:

X360: http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp 3 AAA 25 AA

Ps3: http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp 3 AAA 23 AA

Wii: http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp 3 AAA 6 AA.

So far, American Critics, say that 360 and Ps3 had EQUALLY good games first 12 months, while Wii is a little behind in quantity.

You see, I think reviewers are "corrupt" to themselves. They don't even know it. They review better for the better reviewed console.

For instance: Did Ps2 deserve 3 times as many AAA games as PS`?

Does the PC deserve to have LESS AAAs than Ps2, when it has been going for 4 gens?

Did GTA:SA deserve 3.5% lower for XB than Ps2?

I don't believe any reviewer, nor Gamerankings. Because EVERYONE is "corrupt", even yourself.

 Just looking at the 360 list points out why, as has been brought up before (and I agree), PC gamers really shouldn't bother getting a 360. 6 of those 10 games are available on PC, with little doubt that at some point Halo 3 and Mass Effect will come to PC too (given Microsoft's and Bioware's previous doings). Rockband and gh2 are available on other systems, so there is very little incentive to buy a 360.

 I'll admit this is a shame, because there are a few titles on 360 I'd love to play, but I really can't justify the current prices for the handful of games that I'd be interested in.



Does PSP not deserve a single AAA game?

Does the Macintosh deserve NOT to be reviewed for?

According to OP halo 3 isn't a system seller. Neither is Zelda. Hmm...



Actually I believe early critical flaws (and some ongoing???) in COD4's multiplayer (the games main component) on PS3 resulted in the lower scores. It was never a better game on the PS3, there were some anti-aliasing issues in an early 360 build that were fixed in time for release.



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

The funny thing is this shows why personally I don't have a 360. The top 5 games for 360 are all on PC as well and all play there as well or better IMO, particularly the FPS games. As with the fist Halo on Xbox MS main focus seems to be getting NA gamers who would have previously played those kinds of games on a PC off PC and onto a console.

Now, there's nothing wrong with that... but I really think this approach is always going to put a glass-ceiling over MS consoles' head which they will struggle to breach. And that ceiling is where you need to sell beyond this narrow demographic to a more diverse, casual userbase.

Also, I know people tend to think of console exclusive when comparing titles but with PC still being popular outside US (look at Crysis WW repoted sales vs US only) I think the only real exclusives the 360 has are those that are not on another platform at all, including PC. Outside US games like COD4 and Bioshock sell well on PCs and prevent uptake of 360 to a degree so I don't see Bioshock nor GOW are representing exclusives for 360 anymore: how can they be, as I was able to play both without purchasing a 360?

The bottom line is if you want the absoloutely largest library with the highest average reviews you would play on a PC. For PC like games 360 comes close behind. PS3 and Wii will both soon catch up on PS3 due to titles like COD4 being on one or the other plus more and more 90% plus games coming out for those platforms (they trail 360 by 12 months or so remember for delveopment and release cycles).

In fact, right now what would be interesting is to look at 360 position for game reviews end of first 12 months and compare that to PS3 and Wii first 12 months position.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
