This stupid argument needs to end. There is no factual basis in it whatsoever. Compare the number of xbox360to PS3 games broken down by genre...

Genre --- XBOX360 --- PS3

Action Adventure 28 - 13

Action 35 - 11

FPS - 23 - 6

Tactical Shooter 6 - 3

Other Shooters 32 - 6 (This is mostly arcade games like Contra and Battlestar Galactica)

RPG 9 - 4

Massive Multiplayer 1 - 0

RTS 9-4

Turn based strat 0 - 0

Other Strat 4 - 0

Racing 21 - 10

Car Combat 3 - 2

Other Driving - 4 - 2

Sports 56 - 29 (They have this broken down by sport, but the ration is pretty consistent so I totalled)

Platformers - 15 -6

Adventure 2 - 0

Fighting 10- - 4

Simulation 0 - 0

Combat Sim 3 - 2

Fut. Combat Sim 4-2

Puzzle Game 16-5

Rythm Game 6-2

Party Game 1-0

Virtual Life 2-0

Parlor Games 14-1

Compliations 1-0

Misc 0-1

Card Battle Game 0-1

I guess if your a huge Card Battle Game fan, the 360 might not be the system for you.

And they're all leaps and bounds above anything the PS3 currently offers. If you want to compare the 360's next level of titles such as Dead Rising and Viva Pinata, you'll see that that point is moot.

It has variety, just not as much as I'd like it to have. They need some high-profile action titles besides NG, and some serious JRPGs (Hopefully Lost Odyssey will change that).

The comparison is also useless, because not only has the 360 been out nearly twice as long, there have been more total games in general for the 360 and several of which are not worth playing (same could be said about PS3).

Nope, none at all.
