Are there actually platformers on the 360?

 

 Sonic the Hedgehog

rofl. and THAT beats SMG..... wth??

Anyway, I suppose any such list for this generation would be skewed toward the 360 because it's been out the longest, meaning it has the most games and devs have the most time to work with it. Call me back with a similar list compiled in late 2009....



Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

I agree with most of it, but the 360 having better platformers than the Wii? Does the 360 even have any platformers?

 

I'm asking me exactly the same thing

Its funny that the ps3's overall (not top 5) score for everything is the highest lol.

I'd need the actual list of games they used in front of me to consider this. I can't name 2 games on the Wii that would count as a third person shooter, and they have 5?

 

Battalion Wars II (although I would consider it more of a RTS)
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (although I would consider it more of a Survival Horror game)
Godfather Blackhand Edition
Scarface
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent

I'm sure there are (a lot) better choices, but those are off the top of my head

hmm well ps3 has the best average for its games in all:

PS3- 70.81
360- 70.138
Wii- 63.465

The overall average for PS3 is higher then both Wii and 360 in the Fighting, Racing, Sports, Adventure, and RPG categories.

360 launched 12 months earlier, If it didn't have way more games then PS3 then there would be serously wrong with it. Lets not turn this into a flame war just because I pointed out that PS3 has the best average in total games according to this article.

Why not? I'd like to see two PS3 fans to battle this out.

 

Because there is no point in arguing with anyone about anything anymore lol. People make up their mind and little can be done to change it ever...

One thing that can be inferred from these charts, Wii has a good amount of quality titles, just as much as the other consoles. The Wii was always under when all games from that genre were taken into account, but when only the top 5 were used, the Wii performed just as well as the other consoles, usually very close behind (by a point).

It seems that while the Wii has lots of shovel ware, it has a lot of quality titles.

Which brings me to something else, RolStoppable, is it true that some third parties tried to destroy the Wii, or is that just a saying?

I can agree with that. I think this will change when Alan Wake comes out though.
