If you have an interest in the exclusive then yes. In my case I tend to only play exclusives on my PS3, because 90% of the time I play multiplats on my PC. Also It makes a great blu-ray player :P

About how many decent exclusives available on the PS3?NerubianWeaver

Depends on a person's taste, but there are 21 in the AAE/AAAE/AAAAE range.

Here's the spreadsheet that'll show you GS scores and what's exclusive/not exclusive.

Not trying to be a grammar nazi, but it's is supposed to be its. Its is a possessive word. Anyways, I'm mostly at 360 user, but I feel the PS3 is pretty versatile.

About 20 or more. They are all great reasons to buy a Ps3.

60 to be exact are rated 7 or higher according to gamespot. If your definition of decent is the same as gamespot the number would be higher.

LOL, 360's exclusives are much better then the ps3's, not only are there more, they're better. I've had my ps3 (for exclusives) for about a month now.. so far.. well i'm just not impressed. But I only paid 170 for it, and I know I can sell it for more then that on craigslist when i'm ready, so it really all depends on how much you end up paying for it. Full retail? no way.

That's why I bought mine, that reason and for the handful of Blu-Rays that I buy. I have 3 of those so far, and 5 games.

PS3 has more according to the spreadsheet, 37-33 in favour of PS3.

Also, 360's exclusives being better is purely subjective.

The only exclusives I've enjoyed so far have been the Uncharted series. Other than that, they are no better than any 360 exclusive.

Thats a pretty weak argument, those games aren't from this generation, and there is a difference between another console playing a game or not, your talking about 2 consoles, i'm talking about 1 console. see how 1 is ya know.. only one? Not to mention, you can't go buy a ps3 off the shelves with BC, so therefor even if you included B/c, you'd have to remove any ps1 or ps2 games from the equation, because not all ps3's can play them, you'd have to add in all the xbox games tho, because "most" of those can be played on a 360.

That seems fair, as long as those b/c games were released this gen as the console exclusives were. Besides, how many b/c PS3's are actually out there? Mine sure isn't. Yet my 360 plays every original xbox game I've ever place in the tray.

Well, we're in SW and the rule states it has to be on one console to count as exclusive.

Sad how those best models of the PS3 are dying... @GrilledCharlie, Sony discontinued all BC in 2008 80gbs, I think the amount of PS3 sold in 2006 and 2007 is about 10 million-ish, some of which are software BC (including all europeen PS3s)

Well, system wars can state whatever they want.. doesn't make it real. They also states you can't use any scores other then GS scores, does that mean all scores other then there's cease to exist?

You can discuss other scores to your heart's content. They just cannot be used to determine things like flops, and what scores AAAA/AAA/AA/A and AAAAE/AAAE/AAE/AE. Pretty fair, considering the forum is on the GS site.

PS3, on this site, has more exclusives than 360.

However, 360 does share PC/360 multiplats, which are just as awesome.

I think so, between exclusives and blu-ray. But I still find it hard to convince myself to own a PS3 and a 360. I already have a PS3, Wii, and I'm going to upgrade my PC in the near future.

Demons Souls, LBP, GoW3, Uncharted 1&2, MGS4, Heavy Rain, Ratchet and Clank, Motorstorm, Killzone 2, Resistance, Valkyria Chronicles, Heavenly Sword and MNR. And those aren't including the upcoming games: GT5, The Last Guardian, FF Versus XIII, Killzone 3, LBP 2, Motorstorm 3, Enslaved. Basically, PS3 has one of the best exclusive lineups, and one of the most diverse. While the Xbox has better multiplats, we get better and more diverse exclusives (instead of shooter shooter Mass Effect shooter shooter Alan Wake shooter shooter Splinter Cel shooter shooter Kinect shovelware). It's a good time, and becoming even better, to be a PS3 owner. Also, although not officially announced yet, Starhawk has been trademarked/whatever. Basically, it looks like a space based sequel to Warhawk could be in the mix, which will be EPIC.

Don't forget MAG, God Of War Collection, infamous, and infamous 2! :P

But yeah, the ps3 is well worth getting just for the exclusives, and even as a blu ray player as well if you havn't already got one.

of course PS3 is worth buying.

its the BEST blu Ray player available on the market.

and some of its exclusives rock the house.

does it have a value proposition ( GAMES, ONLINE, EXCLUSIVE DLC..ETC..ETC..) as huge as the 360? thats debatable, and thats why i own them BOTH.

i have PS3 for its exclusives and Blu Ray, i have 360 for EVERYTHING else that PS3 just doesnt have.
