And there was also Proof! A spreadsheet and numbers don't lie, Right? I agree.
But my problem is, I can't quite put my finger on why people are not realizing that a bunch of these 360 games are really Arcade Games that you Download, and are rated with the standards of other Arcade Games, lots of which are Last Gen quality.
-------------------------So this spreadsheet gives the impression that the family trivia game 'Scene-it? Box Office Smash', which is a AA 360 exclusive game, is rated with the same standards as Uncharted (both of which got the same score).------------------------------------------------------------------
So I decided to take an in depth look at all of these titles just to see what the numbers on this spreadsheet actually represent, and what other issues come out of it.
What I mean by "other issues", is the answer to the argument "but 360 had more higher scoring exclusives from launch and PS3 took 1 year just to get its first". The answer is simple: The reason PS3 exclusives took so long is because they were developed for the PS3, while some of the 360 exclusives were meant to be released on Xbox1 , but due to the easy PC like architecture of the 360, they were easily moved to the 360, and had no PS3 exclusives to be compared against for people to tell the difference. They were compared to last gen games, and in some cases they Were last gen games. These games also make up the numbers for the spreadsheet.
Here are just some of the games on the spreadsheet, and I am not going to talk about quality as I haven't played any of them, I am only posting them so you can get an idea of the quality for yourself, instead of people "telling you".
Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise - 8.5 (2008)
Scene It? Lights, Camera, Action - 7.5 (2007)
Scene It? Box Office Smash - 8 (2008)
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter - 9.2 (2006)
This only reason im putting this game here is because many consider it multiplat and believe this shouldn't be on the spreadsheet because GS has it listed on multiple platforms, and because you play the same story, but regardless it is considered exclusive.
Perfect Dark Zero - 9 (2005)
This is one of those games that could have been done on Xbox1. Also, am I to believe this game is as good as Killzone 2 because they scored the same? It's all a matter of opinion.
Card Game: Culdcept SAGA - 8 (2008)
Chromehounds - 7.9 (2006)
Another xbox1 possible.
If you are wondering about quality, take a look at all the player reviews on the Exclusives by actual 360 owners; the arcade and last-gen looking games are ALWAYS lower than GS's reviews, and this is because people playing these games are reviewing them based on current gen titles as comparison, which is what any person would do, so I don't blame them.
Here are some others so you can see more:
Project Gotham Racing 3 - 8.8 (2005)
Project Gotham Racing 4 - 8.5 (2007)
Kameo: Elements of Power - 8.7 (2005)
Dead or Alive 4 - 8.8 (2006)
Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation - 8.5 (2007)
Saints Row - 8.3 (2006) (Saints Row 2 didn't make it)
MotoGP 06 - 8.2 (2006)
Ninja Blade - 7.5 (2009)
Stoked Snowboarding - 7.5 (2009)
Race Pro - 7.5 (2009)
Earth Defense Force 2017 - 7.1 (2007)
Naruto: Rise of a Ninja - 7.5 (2007)
Naruto: The Broken Bond - 7 (2008)
The only games left for 360 exclusives after all of these are the only ones I THINK compare to the ps3 lineup, and i'm pretty sure a lot of other people agree since they are the only ones that are talked about like the PS3 Exclusives are.
