It seems that in defense of their purchase, they only go on about how they still have loads of multiplatform games to play.

Well, what about the loads of AAE-AAAE PS3 games releasing this year? You'd be missing out on those.

To be honest, if someone has one system - then it doesn't matter if a game is exclusive.

And PS3-only owners will be missing out on all the AAE-AAAE exclusives releasing on other systems. So I'm guessing they're content with mediocrity as well?

But the 360 does still have more higher scoring games.

Haven't there been enough of these threads already? It's getting boring.

That's true, but then I'd add that exclusives simply add to multiplats as potential games to play.

Of course one could end up being spoilt for choice I suppose.

I think the word loads is over-exaggerating, the last couple of years you could count the PS3's number of AAAE/AAE more than the 360 had on one hand, I don't foresee a landslide this year either.

every year about 10% of my gaming time is spent playing PS3 exclusives, the rest is spent on playing superior multiplats on 360.

You can say the same for the PS3, open either of the systems up and what do you get inside? Very very generic old looking sad pc hardware.

What you refer to as mediocrity, others refer to as a pretty damn good stable of games to choose from. People really need to remember that applying SW ideology outside of SW (i.e. reality) looks very corny.

This, only because Demon's Souls doesn't end so quickly, otherwise less than 10%.

You're almost getting as bad as that dude with the Kevin Butler avatar who thinks he needs to type in bold for some reason. Give it a rest buddy, nobody with a 360 has to defend their purchase to you.

Don't get me wrong, the PS3 is cool and all. But between my PC, 360, and Wii, I have about 50 games that I want to finish before Skyrim drops.. The shear number of great games this gen is overwhelming :)

With that logic, wouldnt cows be equally as content? I mean after all the hoopla with the PS2 and prior to November 2006 about how the PS3 would stomp the 360........arent they content with 3rd place? Are not they content with merely having better (subjective) exclusives? Content with losing marketshare, fans, and 3rd party dev support? Lets be rational here TC. :|

Not really, because we have already got two quality exclusives while the 360 has had none.

LBP2 (couldn't care any less) and Killzone 3? pah, if thats what you enjoy, fair enough. i am still playing halo reach, its amazing and with 100,000 gamers online in the UK evenings look set to keep my FPS cravings going for a while yet. KZ3 will probably die when Crysis2 comes out since the community couldn't be bothered sticking with KZ2 by all accounts.

yeah crysis 2 will keep my shooter craving fed along with reach. and then gears will come out. the only. i disagree with you about LBP2 though. great fun. flopzone is one of my least favorite series of this gen, and resistande is not much better. im pumped for uncharted 2 though.

The PS3 and 360 feel like twins. I don't really care if I miss out on a few exclusive titles. The only ones I really care about missing out on are Uncharted. If I never had a 360 then I wouldn't be able to play the Gears series. So its a situation where I can't play one or the other but the majority of titles are shared on the twins.

So either way I don't care.

I have a 360 and the superior multiplats argument has been wildly overblown trust me. Now Lemmings might go wild because they were able to count an extra pixil on a shrub in the background, but in my experiance I find multiplats to be superior on PS3. For me it's a superior experiance to play my games online without having to worry if I've payed my X-Box bill. It's a superior experiance to play my game without wondering if I'm gonna have to make a run to the store because the AA batteries in my controller are going to run out and it's a suprior experiance having my game on a scratch resistant Blur-Ray and not an archaic DVD. Microsoft has decided theyed rather spend money on advertising that implies that Multiplats are exclusive to the 360, then actually produce exclusives and that's great for their bottom line; but in so many ways the 360 is the worst console to play multiplats on. Cow's shouldn't belive the hype from lemmings who post cherrypicked screeens of multiplats where the most obvious difference between the 2 versions is that they didn't adjust the contrast for the PS3 version properly.

So far, I'm not very impressed with PS3 exclusives this year. In fact, I just traded in LBP2 to Amazon for $37 credit.

If someone is a Xbox 360 only owner, I don't think he cares much about the lack of exclusives for his console -- given, y'know, the fact that he'll have plenty of multiplatforms he'll only be able to play on his 360.

I'm a 360 only gamer and I'm content with having the BEST games to play:

I get the BEST exclusive FPS & TPS series - HALO & GEARS (I know Uncharted is good, but lets face it, nobody plays it online...Its only good for about 10hrs)

The BEST Racing series - Forza

The BEST Sports games -Madden & NBA2K (multiplat)

The BEST Fighting games - Mortal Kombat/Street Fighter (multiplat)

The BEST RPG series - Mass Effect

The BEST ONLINE experience - Xbox Live

I have to say I'm very satisfied.

if i had a PS3, LBP2 still wouldn't be on my list. its not something i would even bother to try TBH, its not for me.

honestly, you should really give it a chance. it's a brilliant game.

actually the only game that ps3 has this year that I want to play is the back to the future game... I wasnt really into their exclusive sequels the first few times they came around. but thats just me.
