That's 4 exclusives and 2 multiplatforms. The exclusives having 1 AAA title and 3 very high AA titles. The multiplatform titles being both AA.
If you want to argue opinions then go for it...but scores don't lie. While i think that Resistance is alot of fun (yes, i've played it, extensively), i don't think that $600 is worth it for that game alone. And lets be realistic here...what did anyone really know about Gears of War that was concrete at the time when the 360 launched? Not much. I'm not stating that the 360 launch was anything incredible in terms of game quality...but it was at least a good launch in terms of game quality. It definitely had alot more at launch than the PS3 did (again, in terms of game quality). I could go on and on about the list of games for the 360 that make the console worth it. It's a waste of time though since you either know most of them or just completely write them off in some stereotypical fashion. The 360 is worth getting right now and, IMO, was at launch. The PS3 will be worth getting when MGS4 comes out.
Again, this is my opinion. PS3 will possibly be worth getting before MGS4, seeing as Heavenly sword is shaping up rather well. But this is my opinion.

I agree with you but those 4 titles aren't worth buying a 360 for. Waiting until a solid game base is formed on both systems is a smarter move than buying those games. Those games will have little influence on the 360's life a year from now. Gears will, but not Project Gotham 3, not Call of Duty (a multiplat), not Kameo, and definitely not Perfect Dark Zero. Resistance and Motorstorm won't set it's mark on the PS3 either.
