Seems that the 360 is losing some of the exciting exclusives it once had and wondering if I am the only one who feels that way. COD MW2 is great if you want an arcade type shooter with little or no teamwork (in my opinion) but here is a short list of what I would like to see and feel free to add to it. Though my write up is in against what PS3 says they have coming out it is no way a console war thread, it just seems the creativity has swapped to the PS3 side of the fence.
1) A game like modern warfare where teamwork is essential to winning other then solo play that makes up a team. Best way can describe this is MW with a Rainbow six flair (even R6 got to be a solo multi-player game eventually). A game like the one PS3 is coming out with called MAG seems like something I would like to see on the 360, link included.

2) Can we get a MMORPG already? I know Champions Online was slated to come out but I would rather skip that for a quality game. If you have been tracking this game the PC version is broken witha dwindling player (subscription) base already. Do we want a broken game that failed on PC coming to 360 for a second chance? Conan MMORPG is in limbo it seems as Funcom makes a new MMORPG for 360 called The Secret World. Does this mean Conan is scratched? Meanwhile PS3 has two titles releasing this year, DCUO and The Agency and they have been confirmed as free to play supporting themselves through expansions and items bought in game which will have no gameplay advantages, purely cosmetic. Seems Star Trek online is in the same boat as Champions Online was as Microsoft has not approved these games at this time for use on XBL.
In closing I think there is a huge market for MMORPG's on console versions and the first system to get them wins. I fear for my 360 system. Links included:

3) And Finally, can we get exclusives like we once had? Seems the PS3 exclusives are winning the fight at the moment because creativity has stalled by our exclusive companies.
Was just wondering if anyone feels the same as I do on this topic.
