Dead rising always looked like the best launch exclusive to me. However, infamous is probably going tobe the best launch window game.

I think I remember PS3 and 360 exclusive libraries overall being around 77 meta this gen (might have that wrong) so yeah it's defo on par with what you'd expect.

Good way of looking at exclusives is in order though.

XB1 - Forza
PS4 - Resogun
XB1 - Dead Rising 3
XB1 - Killer Instinct
XB1 - Zoo Tycoon
XB1 - Powerstar Gold
XB1 - Ryse (sure it'll score higher than 67 ...)
PS4 - Contrast
PS4 - Knack
XB1 - Crimson Dragon
XB1 - Lococycle

All in all, pretty decent figures for a console launch, and close enough over all that people really need to shut up with the "x is better than y" nonsense, if it wasnt for lococycle and crimson dragon dragging the average down they would more or less be freaking identical.

Would you mind compiling the Wii U launch games too? Would be interesting to see the comparison.



My honest estimates, in order of final tallys:

Battlefield 4 87
NBA 2K14 85
Need for Speed: Rivals 84
Ryse: Son of rome 82
Call of Duty: Ghosts 78
Dead Rising 3 78
Forza 5 77
Killer Instinct 73
Zoo Tycoon 72
Powerstar Golf 65
Crimson Dragon 55
Lococycle 52

 

And yeah ill update the post with Wii launch titles too, give me a sec.



Best Console graphics so far means Ryse deserves an exrtra 1 mark.

DR3 has more reviews than Killzone already...

Woah you expect Forza to be 77 and Ryse to be 82? That's a first.

Contrast is on PC and I think Zoo Tycoon is listed for 360, so I wouldn't really call those exclusives.

Edited for accuracy, I wouldnt include Ryse or Forza in the list till theyre actually scored, and honestly, I believe Ryse will score better than Forza 5 when all is said and done.



According to some PS fans the Dead Rising 3 getting a 10/10 was a bribed score.
