Microsoft's Ninja Gaiden II and Vampire Rain not Counted as both are appearing on PS3
VGChartz has You're In the Movies as a Microsoft 1st Party game… 

Microsoft's XBOX.COM web site lists it as Codemasters only.

 

 

After all is said and done there are differences but not as much as fanboys sell them to be when you don't sit there and weed everything out.

nice list but published by, should not make it into a 1st party studio release.



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

Interesting stuff.

Goes to show that both consoles have a mixture of games.

MS need some first party Sport games!



                            

An interesting list - Microsoft have the more successful so far - Although bare in mind that a couple of the Sony published titles listed have only been released in Japan and not elsewhere yet

You sure you wanna compare exclusives?



Interesting Neoratt.

Was easy for me to pick the box that brings me more RPGs. The gulf in RPG sales between the 2 are huge.



Well, the title is wrong, it is not first party games, that would mean made by internal studios, which removes Gears of War, Halo and Mass Effect from the Xbox, and technically Ratchet, Resistance and inFamous from PlayStation and LBP and a few more, but it is still an interesting list. However, still an interesting list, but moving forward, as M$ releases some its studios and decreases headcounts, the tide should turn in Sony's favour {though personally I much prefer Sony's list}



List is a bit unfair, Sony made virtually every single one of those games, while Microsoft just published a fair amount of it's own.

Thanks for making this though.



So sony has better first party games confirmed!!? YEAH! FUCK YEAH! OH GOD YES! IN YOUR FACE!! DIE! SUOirEstSopsihtEKatlliwyOBNaFSmatcideRPI#(!/!
