Chances are, it's multiplats.

So please, don't dismiss them out of comparisons. In fact, they're the only standard in which it's logical to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each system (why we would want to do that in the first place is beyond me, but I digress) considering the fact that they were made by the same developer, using the same engine, with the same visual fidelity target set for both (wheras exclusives were optimized for one console and we'll never know what it would look like on the other console).

Even if you don't want to use them for comparisons (I've heard plenty of illogical reasoning as to why exclusives are better for comparisons than multiplatform games), just enjoy your multiplatform games.

I know I'm fighting a losing (already lost?) battle here but my real aim for this post is,

RELAX AND PLAY YOUR GAMES.

And if for some reason you have more exclusive games than multiplatform, then, well....you're missing out on a lot.

Except your entire argument falls apart when applied to the PC, considering it has the most AAAE's and has far higher visual fidelity. The majority of my library for my PC are exclusive games that look better than what the 360, PS3, or Wii can produce.

I mostly have exclusive games. Since that's all I buy on consoles, I buy multiplats on PC but there are only a few multiplats I buy.

Slightly more exclusives, actually. I think they've been better than multiplats this gen overall.

Wii all but one is Exclusive, GCN all but 3 are exclusive, PS2 all but 2 are Multiplatform, 360 all but 1 is multiplatform, Dreamcast all but 2 are Multiplatform, PS1 all but I guess one or two games are Multiplatform, N64 most are exclusive. PS3 I have one game and it is Exclusive. I don't know about NES, SNES, and Genesis titles I didn't look.

Sorry to disappont you, but most of my games on all of my systems are exclusives. I have some multiplat games, because as you said, they are good games too, it's just that most of what I've tended to enjoy this gen are quirkier exclusives.

I don't know my count, but I do agree. Each console has had some fantastic exclusives this generation.

I have more exclusive games and looking ahead it seems my exclusive games list is only gonna grow bigger, ofcourse there are a few multiplats that I really want to get. As long as a game appeals to me I will get it regardless if its exclusive or multiplat.

I have more exclusives. I am sure I buy more multiplats overall but I usually keep exclusives while I sell and trade my low replayability games which for some reason tend to be mostly multiplats. As for the comparison arguement thats just not true. For one exclusives are the games that acutally take advantage of the consoles pros and cons while multiplats are designed for the lowest common denominator of both consoles. Now of course its really impossible to compare exclusives because they are different games made by different devs but it's not that much easier or fair to compare multiplats as well. When looking at multiplats, more often then not one or more versions are ports. We all know that for the most part in the porting process one version gets all the attention while the others get a cut a paste version of that game, not specifically made with that console in mind. Thats why multiplats arent perfect for comparison either. Both versions are not made equally with equal time.

I have more exclusives than multiplats. It seems (after looking) that most of my PC and DS games are exclusives. I still have to replace my PS3, but even it had a lot of exclusives, just not sure how may vs multiplats. My list of PS3 games to get has more exclusives than multiplats. Every DS game I have is exclusive.

Multiplats. They have proven to be overall better than most exclusives this gen. (Especially Bioshock, Fallout 3 and Dead Space ;) )

Oh, I would prefer Exclusives, by FAR! Games made as exclusives several times have improved and more specific improvements from other games.

360- 13 Exclusives, 6 multiplats (4Es are upscaled PS2 games but not on any other console this gen). PS3- 6 Exclusives, 13 Multiplats (funny, My PS3 and 360 both have 13 of one and 6 of the other!) Wii- 7 Exclusives, no multiplats PC- (this gen at least) 5 Exclusives, 1 multiplat So thats 26 exclusives, 19 multiplats meaning I dont support TC's theory

If both consoles got equal love and development time from third party studios then it would be fair to compare multiplats, but when a company makes a game for 360 and rushes a port for PS3, I don't think it's fair to use multiplats as the deciding factor as to which console is more powerful.

Also, my library consists more of exclusives.
