lol fail. Most of that is just from multiplats getting different scores. Funny how this kid sides with IGN for saying Mass Effect 2 is better on PS3, but forgets IGN gave 360 console of 2010.

Who woulda thought Kinect titles would actually bring the 360's year back up exclusive wise?:lol:

Now I'm not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing for us gamers...:| Oh well, I guess it's only good for one thing: rubbing the Kinect-exclusive tally in the cows face.:P (unless if Kinect Sports or Kinect.. Joy Ride? Is your thing.:P)

Yall shouldn't complain about the 360's line-up this year then.;)

Good point but most of Wiis games are just shovleware. I mean it makes sense doesn't it? If you have more games on a system your more likely to have a lower average? I mean 360 last year had more great games and more good exclusives. Doesn't that tell you that crappy games on the 360 is bringing the average down?

Do XBL arcade games count on this list?Messiahbolical-

Yes they do. Only expansions and re-releases don't count. I looked for the games that made it into that graph and there are games like Shank and Limbo in there.

Yes but if you look more into the article, the Wii didn't have that much of a bigger percent of shovelware than the Xbox 360.

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"] no i dont think it is, mc doesn't have a history of making up numbers for consoles to win, it won legitimately TintedEyes

How do you know that? You don't know what those extra 2 multiplats are on the PS3, for all we know they could be games that are also on the 360 but simply since 360 gets more reviews it got a lower meta score. The info is unreliable I don't know why you insist in spinning it and not provide concrete proof that it is reliable. Show us a list of those 90 games on PS3 and 88 games on 360 then we will believe that PS3 won.

well you assume they are wrong, i'll assume they are right.

which makes it assumption, and brings suspicion to your argument.

Averaged number like that mean very little to me, especially when an out-lier can bring it right down or up.

For me, 2010 was the year of the XBox 360. I bought one the day after Christmas 2009. I got a Halo Reach edition of the Slim when Reach came out. This was a year of alot of console-wise-360-exclusives-- Splinter Cell: Conviction, Mass Effect 2 (exclusive until January 2011), Alan Wake, and Halo: Reach. I've enjoyed all of these games. I also really enjoyed multiplats such as Red Dead Redemption, Medal of Honor, and Call of Duty: Black Ops.

2010 cemented me as a Microsoft gamer for the next generation, when it comes.

It's 2011 already and people still think that Mass Effect 2 was ever an exclusive.:|

It shows right there in the chart that the 360 had more good games than the PS3. It just had more shovelware bringing the average down. The 360 had 13 good exclusives, the PS3 had 12.

TintedEyes
no the graph has ps3 having more good games, thats why it won 2010

Except it has already been proven that it DIDN'T, multiple identical multiplats counted for the PS3 and not the 360 due to different reviews being counted.

We kind of do, if we trust glez13's detective work. But the fact remains that the "lead" the PS3 has in total games is shaky at best. The only absolutely certain thing is that the 360 has more good exclusives.

Some very intersting, stuff here.

Ps3 did good in 2010.

TintedEyes

I can see in your sig that you have PS3 listed as the winner by Metacritc. You might want to change that. In the article not only did they in their words state the 360 was the best console for exclusives, but they also stated that the PC beat out all other platforms in terms of quality releases. Your topic really backfired on you if people would bother reading more than just the title of it. :P

To be fair, most of those statements occurred before the release of Kinect, a number of good exclusive games came with the peripheral and after that I don't think too many were making fun of the 360. The PS3 had a very good year last year and in my opinion, was the best system.

waltefmoney

PS3 Exclusives above 75 in 2010: 12. One of them is a Move exclusive - echochrome 2.
360 Exclusives above 75 in 2010: 13. One of them is a Kinect exclusive - Dance Central.

Sorry, I didn't know we were only talking about 75+ games. If we were talking about 70+ games then there are 4 kinect exclusives off the top of my head, possible more.

Exactly so there were more and better games on the 360 last year than the PS3 ;) But i guess because it was so close you could really make an argument for both consoles

This is the most childish/fanboyish thread ever. Why do you all care what console "won" what year? In 40 years are you all going to sit around with your grandson on your lap saying "I remember 2010, that was the year of the 360 (or PS3)." The real question is, what console did you get the most out of last year? That is all that matters. I've never seen so many people argue over such a useless topic.
