Quality Exclusives - PS3 vs Xbox 360

Which system offers exclusives with the quality that an exclusive game should have, not multiplatform quality games sold as exclusives? Not going by scores either.

PC. :D

Wait, ao it goes:

1. Exclusives
2. Multiplat

In terms of quality? So any exclusive is better than Red Dead Redemption?

Just going by exclusives, since most multiplats are more or less the same.

That's not what I asked. Are you saying exclusives are automatically better games than multiplats? It seems to be what you're insinuating in your OP.

Also, exactly how are multiplats "more or less the same"?

PC. :D

but if i had to choose between xbox and Ps3 i would choose Ps3 for the fact that online play is free i think it wrong making people pay just to play online when the Ps3 pc and wii offer it for free even the Ps2 had it free.

Ps3 games might be a little more expensive then xbox but 1 ps3 uses blu ray which can hold up to 50gb of data wheres xbox is still using dvd which duel layes can hold up to 18 gb i think so larger games and better graphics can be made for Ps3

my thoughts :) long live Pc!

You would think I was saying that if you were expecting me to say that. What Im saying is exclusives tend to be of higher quality than multiplats because the developers focus on just one system and the strengths of that one system. A lot of people own both a PS3 and an Xbox 360 so they can play the exclusives. Thats one of the main reason to buy both systems. Most multiplats are more or less the same because the developers try their best to make them that way, with the exception of games like Bayonetta which I hear run much worse on the PS3. But you know all of this.

Ahhh, so you are saying that multiplats are similar across systems, rather than being similar to seperate multiplat games. The way you worded your initial response made me think you were alluding to the latter. Now that that's cleared up, sorry for the confusion :P

Both have their fair share of great exclusives, but the Playstation brand always offers the most variety, which wins it for me. IMO (yes, imo), 360 has yet to recieve an exclusive that is of such high calibur as say, MGS4, GOW3, Demon's Souls, and Uncharted 2. Lately PS3's exclusives also seem to be more consistant quality-wise.

I like the exclusives for the PS3 a little more than those on XBOX 360.

I'm still hoping we get a L4D game on PS3. I'm probably most envious of those games.

Duh, ps3 has the higher quality exclusives, quite funny considering the ps3 "has no gamez" ha!ThePsTriple

It remains subjective.

One console could have a substantial amount of exclusives LESS yet someone might prefer it. Either way I think SONY has been doing well in releasing a more consistent stream of exclusives since 2008. The overall library for both remain strong. Especially 360. In terms of exclusives however, my vote is SONY. Just way more variety.

without even thinging about it (PS3)

the qualty is better

and it's not all shooters

Out of consoles, PS3. Overall PC mainly because of Diablo and Deus Ex.Blacklight2

PS3 has the higher quality exclusives, without question. Everything from the visuals to the audio blow anything the 360 has to offer, out of the water. 5.1 or 7.1 LPCM sound? This is an area the 360 has always been lacking. Imo, the ps3 exclusives are the only games that really feel like next gen games.

It depends of the genres you like more. I prefer 360´s exclusives but then again, i love Shooters and WRPGs

Xbox 360 by a landslide for me

Mass Effect 1-2 is top of the top quality, same for Fable 2 that is as amazing soredas Demon Soul and Lost Odyssey that is by far the best JRPG this generation

Has the best shooters too by far imo

Both of them have a great amount of quality exclusives, but its the PS3's who's exclusives appeal to me more, coming in with titles like Heavy Rain, Uncharted 2, LittleBigPlanet, Modnation Racers, etc.

TheGrudge13

therein lies the problem. out of the 360's 21 high scoring exclusives (same number that the ps3 has, btw) only 5 are shooters. the ps3 has 4.

I Have A 360 And It Seems To Me That It Doesn't Have Enough Exclusives That Appeal To Me. Mainly Because Most Of Them Are Shooters. So Im Gonna Have To Go With The PS3. Even Though I Don't Have One. :?

I actually prefer the 360 exclusives.

the ps3 games like uncharted and killzone are very high quality games, but i only played those games for like a week and never touched them again (still great awesome games).

the 360 games like halo and gears i was still playing them for a very long time way after their launch dates. and they are also high quality and feature various co op, community, multiplayer options that aren't present in the ps3 heavy hitter AAA games. There are more AAAE for ps3 though, so that is where xbox fails, but the AAAE that xbox has are way more than your moneys worth (halo 3, gears 2)

also if you are only doing a comparison of ps3 and xbox 360, i would also include pc/360 games. just because they are on pc doesn't mean they shouldn't be used in a ps3 vs 360 only comparison. pretty retarded if you are trying to persuad someone who doesn't have any gaming consoles or pc to buy either a ps3 or 360 but not include games like Mass effect on 360 because its on pc, even though the person has no gaming pc.

[QUOTE="ThePsTriple"]Duh, ps3 has the higher quality exclusives, quite funny considering the ps3 "has no gamez" ha!Ravensmash

Yeah but thats just going by score. And the Xbox 360 still loses.

Im talking about actual quality, not score. For example, God of War 3 and Killzone 2 have the quality you would expect from a game exclusive to one console. Gears of War 2 and Halo 3 have the quality of a multiplatform game but theyre sold as Xbox 360 exclusives, meaning they could have been done on the PS3 just as easily in the same amount of time. They all got AAA scores but not all are exclusive material. An example of an exclusive Xbox 360 title with the quality of an exclusive game would be Alan Wake.

Multiplatform quality :? what does that mean?

Not even the slightest competition here. PS3. 360 only has a chance when we use 360/PC multiplats.

Ravensmash

Right. But you see here is a problem. Not only does the 360 not have an AAAA exclusive, but it has some very controversial games on the AAA list. Tell me, how much do you think Perfect Dark Zero deserves its AAA rating in this day and age? The game is almost as old as the first PS2 God of War. Its completely, utterly insignificant to the modern game even a PC/360 multiplat is more important. IT has been outclassed in just about every way. If released today it would be lucky to get an AE and even in 2005 it got a metacritic average of 81. The 360 also has ODST, which is basically an expansion pack to Halo 3 worthy of being a DLC.

And almost as old as the first God of War. 5 years is a very long time in console gaming. I don't think anyone can honestly say that a highly controversial AAA game even in 2005 (note metacritic of 81) like PDZ is equal in quality to God of War 3, which was released in 2010.

Not at all, those games aren't that old, have top gameplay and provide a unique, unmatched experience on the PS3 system. The quality of PDZ is that of an AE game this day and age.

Ravensmash

But we should. Even if we keep the same score for PDZ (which we should and will), we still must acknowledge that in this day and age, it provides almost nothing to the 360 library. For the life of me, I cannot possibly understand how anyone can view PDZ as equal to a modern title like God of War 3.

CaseyWegner

I'm not trying to change its score, I'm simply talking logic and common sense. The quality of the AAAE exclusive PDZ is not equal to that of AAAE exclusive God of War 3 despite receiving the same score.
