I think there are flaws in the way everyone here in SW debates which is better - X360 and PS3. It seems that there have been way too many game lists popping up showing the games that will be released at someunknown timein the future. People are listing games that have been known about for several years (ex. GT5/Alan Wake), some people list games which aren't even named yet (i.e. Team ICO game), and some people list imaginary games (ex. Rare game). I think its kind of rediculous.
The true best comparison between these systems, I think, is to compare games across genres. All the 360 guys already own 360s and all the PS3 guys already own PS3s. For people going into the stores today and deciding which system to get, they are going to be considering what the systems offer in terms of hardware and services, but most importantly, they will be concerned with the games they see on the shelves, wether they were just released that day or if its been on the shelf for years.
I ask you guys to help me out with completing this comparison, then we can determine honestly which system offers a better game experience...
- Shooters - L4D, PDZ, GRAW, Halo 3 and Gears 1 & 2 (360) vs. Warhawk,Killzone 2,and Resistance 1 & 2 (360 wins)
- JRPGs - Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey (360) vs.Valkeria Chronicles and Disgaea 3(PS3) (Draw)
- WRPGs - Mass Effect and Fable 2 (360) vs. ? PS3 (360 wins)
- Party/Family - VP 1 & 2, Scene It! (360) vs Buzz (PS3) (360 wins)
- Music -Lips (360) vs. Singstar (PS3)(Draw)
- Sports - They both have the same sports games for the most part with PS3 habving a slight edge due to MLB The Show 09 (PS3 wins)
- Racing - PGR 3 & 4 and Forza 2 (360) vs.Motor Storm 1 & 2(PS3) (360 wins)
- Fighting - DOA4 (360) vs. ? (PS3) (360 wins)
- Platform/Adventure - Kameo and Banjo (360) vs. LBP and R&C(PS3) (Draw)
- RTS - Halo Wars (360) vs. ? (PS3) (360 wins)
- Action - ? (360) vs. Heavenly Sword, MGS4 and Uncharted (PS3) (PS3 wins)
OVERALL (360 WINS)
I'm sure I missed a lot of good/great exclusives and that is why I ask for everyone to pitch in here. I'm not going to compare multiplats (I don't think it sways the consumers opinion). Also, this is a comparison between 360 and PS3...Not 360 vs. PS3 + PC, so please don't say I can buy Mass Effect on the PC too.
Maybe we can settle this argument at least for now, because as more games are released the tides can change...

I am a PS3 Fanboy although put a blancved argument and am not biased.
Just because the consoles have the same amount of games in that genre doesn't mean draw for example Banjo and Kmaeo are no doubt great games yet fail to Ratchet and Clank let alone Littlebigplanet far superior.
Left 4 Dead has been confirmed to come out on PS3, GRAW is both on PS3 and Xbox and is anyway a fail compared to GOW2, Halo 3 and Killzone. Perfect Dark zero is old, no one plays it any more, yet Warhawk is quite old and although both great for their time not many people play them anymore.
Why did you mention Blue Dragon?
Yes, PS3 has WRPGS and I agree on that Xbox has great RPGS
Buzz and Scene it no one plays them and although there are more scene It Buzz easily beats it but why did you have to bring up those two games?
I compltley agree on the racing Xbox has batter racing games
I have no idea what DOA4 is but you forgot to mention Dead or ALive 4 but failed to mention Tekken 5 for PS3
360 has Halo Wars yet PS3 has a far improved Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3, it depends about your opinion on that one.
Action, well Xbox has litterally nothing at the top of my head aside Dead Rising while PS3 has Heavenly Sword, Metal Gear Solid 4 and Uncharted
