[QUOTE="slimjimbadboy"]Regardless of the flaws, there is definitely a trend in the info provided. I post above is just a simple request to post something that states the PS3 has more games than the 360 is all.

We are not on the same page.
That "360-having-more-PS3-games-trend" you speak of, I told you a few times in this thread I'm fully aware the 360 has more games. In my first post I said as much. I clearly know of it first hand since 2005 and my long, long time here in SW. You must have me mistaken with another user who doesn't clearly know the facts. I merely came in to speak of the Spreadsheet being incorrectly utilized.
The simple request about posting something PS3 vs 360 in some sort of bizarre world where the PS3 had more games than the 360 I am not going to comply as that doesn't exist.
I told you the 360 has more games in my first post in this thread, I was merely pointing out the Spreadsheet was misused, that was it. You didn't read my first post in this thread, or you didn't understand my posts.
I dug up my first post, check it out :
----------
SolidTy : "Just so SW is aware, the spreadsheet isn't made for comparing systems total games libraries. Many multiplatform games are reviewed on one platform despite the fact it's a multiplatform game. For instance, Rockband 3 is only listed as a 360 game in that list. That's one of many games. Another example is the PC library is full of DLC, but counted as single games. Some indie games like Braid are counted on the PC list, but DO NOT count for the 360/PS3 list. It's COMPLETELY broken for that type of comparison.
That's because that list was NEVER intended to be misused in an argument like this.
It's a great list FOR looking at EXCLUSIVES and comparing those if you wish, but for trying to prove more multiplat games or MORE TOTAL Games as you did above.
I'm not involved in the argument as the 360 does have more games. I bought two 360's back in 2005. It's obvious as the 360 was out on the market for a full year first. However, I'm here to tell you and those that don't understand, the SW spreadsheet list wasn't designed for a comparison of what has more games. You'll never get an accurate answer that way, ever."

I only spoke in this thread for the main purpose of talking about the Spreadsheet. I'm not here to debate against my 360 or PS3 consoles.
lol, ffs, my point is that the spreadsheet and wiki pages are databases compiled by people in a non biased manner. That even if the discrepancies were taken into consideration and fixed, the trend would still show that the 360 leads in games. I seriously doubt that the PS3 has 200+ games missing off the wiki list while the 360 has none. (And thank you for reiterating that the 360 has more high scoring exclusives than the PS3 :P )I'm not trying to get you to argue over which system is better, I am trying to get you to show me a source that contradicts the overall data found in what I provided seeing is that you believe the sources are, from what I can understand, incorrect.
I'm one of the compilers you speak of with regard to the GS spreadsheet. Check the sheet, check the sheet you will see my name at the top. ;) That was my purpose, to instruct the proper use of the spreadsheet as I saw it incorrectly linked in a thread in SW. Your purpose was fine, the misuse of the spreadsheet was my Raison d'être in this thread.
Actually, we can't possibly know that the wiki pages are compiled in a non biased manner. As a matter of fact, they are constantly changing by random users all the time, which is why Wikipedia is not an allowed source to be cited in college or even High School papers. I also said the wiki list is better than the Spreadsheet because wiki isn't limited by GS faults. It of course has it's own problems though, which I wanted to educate you on. The spreadsheet which I'm a part of, is based on GS scores which is fine except that GS doesn't score all games, and for some mulitplat games, they aren't re-reviewed on other platforms.
As far as you seriously doubting the PS3 has 200 missing games, and the 360 has no missing, that's a good bet because the 360 has more games, and it always has since it's launch in 2005. As far as reiterating the 360 has more games, whoever it is doesn't know that, you should find them and let them know. That person exists in this thread I'm sure, and it's up to you to find them. :P
As far as getting a source that contradicts the overall data, I wouldn't dare do that since I don't believe the PS3 has more games and I am not sure why I would try to find such none existant intel. I never said or insinuated that. I just wanted to point out the GS spreadsheet isn't designed for such a list.
I've known for years since 2005 the 360 leads in overall games. It had a full year headstart and kept the momentum to stay ahead. You being rather newer to SW (or a fun going alt having some SolidTy time) are telling me a fact I've told others in SW over the years.
Here's the thing, I have to tell you this. The 360 has more games. Make sure to remember that, it's crucial. That fact hasn't changed in the entire 2005-2012 lifespan of the 360, so if you can find a link proving that the PS3 has more games, please post it. Because the world doesn't know, and it would be a shocking revelation. It would certainly surprise me. :P
