[QUOTE="rarsi123"]ps3 lineup is better than the Wii, period. COD4, Assassins creed, Brothers in arms, UT3 (small chance it may arrive in 07), Haze, etc. Yes, half of these are multiplats, but NONE OF THEM are available on the Wiimdisen2

Buta lotof them are available on not one, but 2 other platforms. Wii offers a better exclusive experience.

What does "exclusive experience mean, are exclusive games some how a more greater 'experience' than multiplat games?

has anyone mentioned that these "86 games" are probably just mostly virtual console titles? The wii simply lacks good third party support.

Yes and no. I'll try to word this correctly. Exclusive games "add" more to a console's quality in a sense, and my point really only works in the context of System Wars. When you compare consoles, you don't compare their multi-platform games.

For example: If someone were to say to me: "The Xbox 360 is a better console than the Wii because of the Orange Box". That is a statement that doesn't really hold any weight in this debate (sweet, sweet poetry) at least in my mind, because I have a decent PC that can run HL2 quite well. My PC is 4 years old and still runs the Orange Box just fine. It even meets the Cysis minimum reqs pretty easily.

Anyway, rambling aside, my point is that in the context of System Wars, multi-platform games (especially those on the PC which tend to be more accessable to the "gaming public") shouldn't count toward a console's quality. No matter how hard you try, you'll never be able to play Metroid Prime 3 or Super Mario Galaxy or Smash Brothers Brawl on a PC.
