[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="KevinButlerVP"] lol no old games dont equal crap but new games definitely have more relevance than a 2005 gameedo-tensei

why, because you say so?

It's kind of treu though. Engines are more polished, more experience with the gameplay mechanics and so on. Would you say that cod2 or 3 are better than blackops(ew COD ew). Ok for a better example, do you think that forza 2 or halo 3 are superior than their coresponding sequals. Not sayin the games are irrelevant, but they are not regarded highly as what comes late in the generation,. It's the same very gen, well with some exceptions(mostly nintendo games of old).

cod 2 is better than blck ops though,lol

Though the Xbox 360 has many exclusives: Perfect Dark Zero, Viva Pinata, Kameo, Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Halo 3, Halo ODST, Halo Reach, Mass Effect, Fable II, Dead of Alive 4, Super Meat Boy, Limbo, Forza 2, Forza 3, Crackdown, Splinter Cell Conviction, Alan Wake, Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2...

CaseyWegner

you left other genre games like culdcept saga, scene it, deathsmiles, saint's row, and ace combat 6. did you just not know about these or were they left out to shrink the 360's game variety?

I mentioned that these are not complete lists. I really shouldn't have even bothered listing anything because I knew that one of you would again accuse me of being bias.

For me it's 360's library, but that's not to say PS3 hasn't got a great one either. I'm tempted to buy a PS3 for Uncharted/GT series, but can't justify it when 360 fulfils my needs at the moment - definitely a possibility though. If this gen (and SW) has taught me anything, it's that all systems have a great number of worthy games.

Not really, but if you prefer it then so be it, this arguement will lead nowhere because everyone here has different preferences. However I can't seem to understand why people here can't enjoy both consoles? There's far too many extremist in these boards. Go play some games people, peace!

it's kinda hard not to accuse you of that when you're diminishing the contributions of games released this generation so that your console of choice can come out on top. when you're making a point about variety like that it looks extremely bad when there are omissions.

thats the point i have been trying to make, the games we like and the games we consider relevant is all personal preference,when comparing both consoles library there is no winner because it's all subjective opinions because the best game library is the one that most caters to your needs and personal preferences, i am inclined more towards the 360 but the Ps3 has great games too, just not the particular games that suit my preference or needs.

Ok fair enough, but how many of those exclusives on the Xbox 360 that you've listed are amongst some of the highest scoring for their genres or have something truly special about them? I could take an exclusive like Modnation Racer's and compare to other kart racers, which it stacks up well against. Or I could go even further and explain that the very deep and balanced racing gameplay, online system, and custom tracks and mods set this game are apart from other console kart racers, thus making it a desirable exclusive for many looking for something like this.

In my opinion it doesn't even matter how high a game scores...I go for the system which has the widest variety of games, and for me that's the 360. ...Yes I know PC has a huge selection but it's not financially viable for me atm, so I shall exclude it. All systems have a great library, but for me the 360 edges out the PS3.

Yes, but newer games are generally better and becomes kind of important in choosing which library is better today especially if you don't own an Xbox 360 or PS3.

that is not true. games don't become better simply because they are newer.

They become better because USUALLY developers improve, correct mistakes, become more efficient, and innovate. I said generally, they do genreally become better. I mean I feel that even you'd have to agree with me here: Resistance 1, Gears 1, and Halo 3, vs Halo Reach, Gears 2, and Resistance 2. Not everyone will we agree, but I think the general consensus is the later is better. Ratchet and Clank ToD vs Ratchet and Clank A Crack in Time (A Crack in Time, did so much more). Uncharted 1 vs Unchartd 2, etc.

[QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"][QUOTE="TheMoreYouOwn"]PS3. More variety and more creative IPs.TheMoreYouOwn
Wrong, and wrong. It doesn't have more variety, and last I checked the NEW ip's beyond LBP have all been the same stuff we've been playing for years.

List of vastly different games, just to show the variety beyond LBP: Demon's Souls, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Metal Gear Solid 4, Flower, inFamous, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Valkyria Chronicles, MLB, ModNation Racers, God of War 3, Gran Turismo, Katamari Forever, Warhawk, Heavy Rain, Ratchet and Clank. All vastly different from each other. FPS to 3PS, strategy, action rpg, open world, hack n' slash, platforming, racing, sports, experimental, etc. Plus not to mention the plethora of exclusives coming in 2011.

LBP=Kodaku or whatever it was called. Demon souls which in essence is basically like oblivion, dragon age origins...etc 3d Dot heros...yeah its a pixelated *and fun* action adventure there are many such action adventure *not pixelated* games on xbla and even the indie channel. Metal gear solid 4=splinter cell flower=puzzle game for the most part and there are such things on xbla. Infamous=prototype uncharted 2=Gears of war 1 and 2 *-renegade is on record claiming uncharted 1 and 2 are TPS's I will use his words forever now I have had to deal with so many cows claiming uncharted wasn't a shooter yet 90% of the game is shooting* Killzone 2-halo, cod...etc Valkyria chronicles-there are infact a few Srpgs on the 360...I believe 3. MLB=a baseball game...I'm pretty sure there are baseball games on the 360 Modnation racers thats the only unique new ip and its not really a new ip its just LBP racing. God of war 3=bayonetta Gran tourismo which is an AA series is outscored by an AAA series called Forza Katamari=Beautiful katamari appeared on the 360 Warhawk=snoopying flying aces Heavy rain=the only unique one and only cause no one wants to make interactive movies. Ratchet and clank=banjo kazoo nuts and bolts FPs,TPS,real time strategy, Srpg, jrpg, Wrpg,action rpg, open world, hack n slash, platforming, racing, sports, experimental...seems to me 360 has all those...its funny you said more variety and have thus been proven false, you said more creative IP's and thus been proven false not a single game you brought up was this amazingly creative thing compared to what was offered on the 360....As for exclusives its already been proven that there is more then just forza and gears 3 in 2011 but you wouldn't ever believe that. P.S: and now that I'm done with that and using the facilities I can go back to sleep.

And what are your preference or needs?

fast paced twitch shooters like Halo,unreal, left4dead, doom,gears,etc,etc but mainly WRPG's and open world/sandbox games like oblivion, fallout, risen, ego draconis, ME2,assassins creed,etc,etc my main preference is WRPG's and there are just more of them on the 360, left4dead was my personal GOTY and although Fable doesn't score that well it's one of my favorite franchises (i still have the first one on my 360 HDD) and is a stellar reason for me to own a 360 over a ps3, you see it's all about opnions, like i said, the Ps3 has some stellar games, it's just not my cup of tea as far as overall librarys are concerned,therefore to me, personally, the 360's library is better, did you notice i was a huge perfect dark fan,lol

What is the PS3 missing in terms of variety that the Xbox 360 has. I'm not trying to pick on you, just curious.

I enjoy the XBLA exclusive games, the PC/360 titles and the general back catalogue the 360 has (due to the year advantage). To be honest, I'm slightly biased because I only have a 360, but I think all systems libraries are solid. I'm seriously considering getting a PS3 for GT5 and the Uncharted series.

Now keep in mind the discussion is about overall library. I feel though that single games like Halo Reach can be enough for libraries to not even matter to people since one game has everything they want. I think this is the same thing in your case because of the select exclusive XBLA games. At the same time, I feel that those who are only Xbox 360 owners would have a better idea of how the consoles compare in terms of library if they owned a PS3 because you would be then forced to research games and actually look up what else is good. I know both libraries since I've followed the games that actually interested me for both, have owned a 360, and my friends (and their friends), roommates, and every other person on campus all of have 360s.

I agree that I'd be able to compare better if I had a PS3. Maybe soon I will and I'll compare them equally :P

fast paced twitch shooters like Halo,unreal, left4dead, doom,gears,etc,etc but mainly WRPG's and open world/sandbox games like oblivion, fallout, risen, ego draconis, ME2,assassins creed,etc,etc my main preference is WRPG's and there are just more of them on the 360, left4dead was my personal GOTY and although Fable doesn't score that well it's one of my favorite franchises (i still have the first one on my 360 HDD) and is a stellar reason for me to own a 360 over a ps3, you see it's all about opnions, like i said, the Ps3 has some stellar games, it's just not my cup of tea as far as overall librarys are concerned,therefore to me, personally, the 360's library is better, did you notice i was a huge perfect dark fan,lol

I don't judge based off of avatars though, lol.

[QUOTE="Ravensmash"]

[QUOTE="mD-"] What is the PS3 missing in terms of variety that the Xbox 360 has. I'm not trying to pick on you, just curious. mD-

I enjoy the XBLA exclusive games, the PC/360 titles and the general back catalogue the 360 has (due to the year advantage). To be honest, I'm slightly biased because I only have a 360, but I think all systems libraries are solid. I'm seriously considering getting a PS3 for GT5 and the Uncharted series.

Now keep in mind the discussion is about overall library. I feel though that single games like Halo Reach can be enough for libraries to not even matter to people since one game has everything they want. I think this is the same thing in your case because of the select exclusive XBLA games. At the same time, I feel that those who are only Xbox 360 owners would have a better idea of how the consoles compare in terms of library if they owned a PS3 because you would be then forced to research games and actually look up what else is good. I know both libraries since I've followed the games that actually interested me for both, have owned a 360, and my friends (and their friends), roommates, and every other person on campus all of have 360s.

and yet you claimed about a lack of variety. more research was needed, it seems.

[QUOTE="mD-"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

that is not true. games don't become better simply because they are newer.

CaseyWegner

They become better because USUALLY developers improve, correct mistakes, become more efficient, and innovate. I said generally, they do genreally become better. I mean I feel that even you'd have to agree with me here: Resistance 1, Gears 1, and Halo 3, vs Halo Reach, Gears 2, and Resistance 2. Not everyone will we agree, but I think the general consensus is the later is better. Ratchet and Clank ToD vs Ratchet and Clank A Crack in Time (A Crack in Time, did so much more). Uncharted 1 vs Unchartd 2, etc.

you're only looking at sequels. :? where's the rest?

Sequels are a great way of showing how games improve. No, I'm not going to put myself through more work to prove a point which is general knowledge or common sense. We tend to see a lot of better games across all genres as a generation progresses. Red Dead was an amazing open world game that did so many things right compared to other ones early this generation.

sequels are a great way of showing how games improve over their predecessor (if they even do) but what good does that do for other comparisons? you are just using a generalization because you think it helps your point when all it is is a generalization. rdr can also be seen as inferior to other sandbox games such as gta4. there's more to games than their technical merit.

I said that I feel that PS3 library is better because of the variety of very good exclusive games which happen to be some of the best amongst their genres. I felt the 360 lacked compared to the PS3 in variety of high quality exclusives...

[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="edo-tensei"] It's kind of treu though. Engines are more polished, more experience with the gameplay mechanics and so on. Would you say that cod2 or 3 are better than blackops(ew COD ew). Ok for a better example, do you think that forza 2 or halo 3 are superior than their coresponding sequals. Not sayin the games are irrelevant, but they are not regarded highly as what comes late in the generation,. It's the same very gen, well with some exceptions(mostly nintendo games of old).

mD-

really? isn't a good game a good game?

Yes, but newer games are generally better and becomes kind of important in choosing which library is better today especially if you don't own an Xbox 360 or PS3.

how so?

There isn't really much to compare, considering how many games they share in relation to the ones they don't.

I personaly like the PS3 Library more then the Xbox 360 as it has more games that i enjoy. In general terms i believe that the xbox 360 has a better library, Ps3 IMO has better exclusives tho. However i guess you could use the argument that the xbox360 has been out a year longer so logically speaking its no wonder the Xbox 360 has more games, if both were released at the same time we could be seeing a equal number of games for both.

[QUOTE="TheMoreYouOwn"][QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"] Wrong, and wrong. It doesn't have more variety, and last I checked the NEW ip's beyond LBP have all been the same stuff we've been playing for years.WilliamRLBaker
List of vastly different games, just to show the variety beyond LBP: Demon's Souls, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Metal Gear Solid 4, Flower, inFamous, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Valkyria Chronicles, MLB, ModNation Racers, God of War 3, Gran Turismo, Katamari Forever, Warhawk, Heavy Rain, Ratchet and Clank. All vastly different from each other. FPS to 3PS, strategy, action rpg, open world, hack n' slash, platforming, racing, sports, experimental, etc. Plus not to mention the plethora of exclusives coming in 2011.

LBP=Kodaku or whatever it was called. Demon souls which in essence is basically like oblivion, dragon age origins...etc 3d Dot heros...yeah its a pixelated *and fun* action adventure there are many such action adventure *not pixelated* games on xbla and even the indie channel. Metal gear solid 4=splinter cell flower=puzzle game for the most part and there are such things on xbla. Infamous=prototype uncharted 2=Gears of war 1 and 2 *-renegade is on record claiming uncharted 1 and 2 are TPS's I will use his words forever now I have had to deal with so many cows claiming uncharted wasn't a shooter yet 90% of the game is shooting* Killzone 2-halo, cod...etc Valkyria chronicles-there are infact a few Srpgs on the 360...I believe 3. MLB=a baseball game...I'm pretty sure there are baseball games on the 360 Modnation racers thats the only unique new ip and its not really a new ip its just LBP racing. God of war 3=bayonetta Gran tourismo which is an AA series is outscored by an AAA series called Forza Katamari=Beautiful katamari appeared on the 360 Warhawk=snoopying flying aces Heavy rain=the only unique one and only cause no one wants to make interactive movies. Ratchet and clank=banjo kazoo nuts and bolts FPs,TPS,real time strategy, Srpg, jrpg, Wrpg,action rpg, open world, hack n slash, platforming, racing, sports, experimental...seems to me 360 has all those...its funny you said more variety and have thus been proven false, you said more creative IP's and thus been proven false not a single game you brought up was this amazingly creative thing compared to what was offered on the 360....As for exclusives its already been proven that there is more then just forza and gears 3 in 2011 but you wouldn't ever believe that. P.S: and now that I'm done with that and using the facilities I can go back to sleep.

First off, Demon's Souls like Oblivion? Obviously, you've never played the game making comparisons like that. Aaaand, I was simply responding to your comment that the PS3 doesn't have any variety. Whether you like any of the games I mentioned or not ( I am suspecting the only time you've spent with any of these games is some YouTube footage,) isn't the point. The point is, I took your challenge, showed the variety, and you came back with nothing but negative "opinions." Are we finished?

What console do you think has a better games library? PS3 or 360? I am not talking about scores just about your opinion.

swguy123

XBox 360 has a better library overall. Has a large variety of games and ever moreso with XBL Arcade, Indie Games and GameRoom. I think people completely forget about that. The multiplats are better, more demos and way more DLC. I think the PS3 has a larger variety of exclusives, but not a larger variety of overall games. That's the difference. PC gamers will pick the PS3 because they feel the XBox 360 is irrelevant to their gaming.

People need to not take this poll so seriously. It's all opinion and not fact by any stretch.

I really hate that attitude of "360 is the worst because I already own a PS3 and PC and Wii, lol only Halo left!" Thats not how comparisons work! Of course its worhtless if you compare it to 3 other similar things put together.

I think the PS3 has more quality exclusives to choose from, but only because the majority of games on the 360 also appear on the PC. That said, I spend a lot more time online with my 360 than the PS3 because it's just integrated a lot better, while I use the PS3 for a lot of single player games.

is that not true of the ps3? the 360 still manages more high scoring exclusives than the ps3 does so what's the deal?

""It doesn't have more variety"" is what I said yet now you're claiming I said it had no variety.

You said the ps3 has more Variety, More creative new IP's and I'm sure given long enough you would have claimed it had more games, More higher quality games...etc

But thats not the point you claimed the ps3 has More variety, andMorecreative New Ips. You were proven wrong For every game you listed on the ps3 there is an equavilent game or franchise on the 360 except one and that was ModNation. Your opinion is even more Circumspect when you concentrated on one thing. OH MY GOD HE said Oblivion.......and dragon age origins which is exactly like Demonsss soulssss....

You claimed it had more variety, I claimed it had equivalent Variety you then came back with absolutely nothing except to claim I said it had no variety.
