exclusives-sony-ps3-vs-xbox-360

The ongoing battle between Microsoft and Sony is one that shall not be resolved in the near future, I promise you that. In between the heated arguments and accusations on which is the better console, the ammunition is endless. Today, however, I decided to sift through all the fanboy bantering and focus on a single bullet…exclusivity.

Since their release, both consoles have enjoyed quite a few big names in exclusivity, and today we are going to take a look at their line ups, and decide once and for all, who has the better menu. So kick back in your favourite lazy-boy reclining chair, get yourself a beer (or a juice, depending on your age) and…leets geeeeeet reeeeeady toooooooo ruuuuuuumble!

xbox-360-logo Left 4 Dead

left4dead-mar1st

First up, one of my current favourites on the Xbox 360: Left 4 Dead. Although this game also received a PC version, when it comes to consoles, it’s still only available for the Xbox 360 with no mention of a Sony addition in the near future. So Playstation owners, sorry to say, but you guys are missing out on some ridiculously fast-paced FPS action and a team based engine not seen since Playstation titles the likes of…well…actually, ever.

Left 4 Dead is a totally unique FPS shooter experience and Valve have truly outdone themselves on delivering a top notch zombie shooter. I mean, what other FPS game is out there, where masses of zombies rush at you constantly, and you get to: burn them, shoot them, hit them, snipe them, blow them up, or use a mixture of gas tanks and propane tanks to burn them and blow them up at the same time?

This definitely is one Xbox 360 title which makes it worth it to own a White Box (or at least a proper gaming PC) and definitely a round-of-applause worthy title on the belt of Microsoft. Don’t worry Valve…I’m clapping. I’m clapping till my hands bleed. And then I’ll clap some more.

METACRITIC SCORE: Left 4 Dead (2008) 89

    Nice article. I agree with most of the content.

    I was strictly in the 360 corner since it’s launch and only invested in a PS3 around 6 months ago. That’s because I believed everyone saying that the PS3 doesn’t have any games. Well that turned out to be nonsense as the PS3 actually does have the best games (exclusives). The only games I knew were Gears of War and Halo etc etc, but after having played the PS3 exclusives like Killzone, LBP, Unchartered and R&Clank, I feel that the 360 exclusives are definitely over rated. Pity I didn’t realise this earlier. :ninja:

    Thx for the effort put into the article, was pretty good! :w00t:

    I see his point the Xbox exclusives arent that great in graphics compared to PS3. Thats why i know MGS4 wont come to Xbox 360 and the mere fact that they actaully rip MS indirectly on it stating the game doesnt require to swop disc thanks to blu ray… Sigh….

    360 titles (like you briefly mentioned at the end)
    needs to be added to their list?

    Counting white night chronicles, but missing lost odyssey
    , blue dragon, last remnant and infinite undiscovery, just don’t add up, and if i remember white night only released in Japan. Having only played blue dragon and Lost oddesey, have to say few jrpg will come close to Lost oddesey both in gameplay and story. And missing a few games like call of duty 2 which was big for the first year, as well as pgr3(which you can add with pgr4).
    And a few rare games like Viva Pinata, Kameo which were all very enjoyable.

    At the end it is about which games you prefer and a lot more on 3rd party games than exclusives.

    All great games but when are the developers gonna realize that they can make more money by going cross platform. they are losing millions of potential punters by releasing exclusive titles. I don’t think people will buy a console based on one game, rather the console with the better price and largest library of games. in these dark economic days, developers should be focused on making enough money to keep their company’s open and carry on bringing us more glorious gaming goodness!

    Correct Multiplat is the way to go, and have far more pull than exclusives, just look at Call of duty, Devil may cry, re5 , SF IV, GTA IV, Bioshock, Saints row etc. these studios have seen that they can reap a lot more money to have it on more than one system, and that is why more and more games developed by 3rd party publishers is going multi plat, case in point is lost planet 2 and dead rising 2 most likely going multiplat.
    Much easier to recoop those high development costs.

    Jip.Just asking as some of them were mentioned at the end,but not included under the “Xbox360 opposition” list were-as the unreleased PS3 titles
    were listed under the “more exclusives” which makes
    the 360 list look kinda weak compared to it.
    Merely a technicality so was just wondering whether
    they were taken into account or not 😉

    The ps3 exclusives only included 3 games which had not been released yet. All the rest were current titles avaliable at any retailer. As with the Xbox 360 (minus Viva Pinata…sorry about that one) there wasn’t a lot more that I could have listed. What did you want? Perfect Dark Zero. I did list Halo ODST, Alan Wake and Forza 3 in my final segment. HOWEVER, I also included a list of both the xbox 360 and ps3 titles still coming. So hence that, the xbox still came up short. Exactly the same for the great titles that the xbox has coming, ps3 have countered with Heavy Rain, God of War 3 and Gran Turismo 5 (but to name a few). And MGS4 is STILL an exclusive. There is a rumour going around that it might be coming to xbox 360, but Hideo Kojima shot that one down just as it surfaced. However, until we find out what the next title from Konami is going to be, it’s all a waiting game.

    Wait? Last remnant and blue dragon? Fine, I’ll give you lost oddesey (which STILL doesn’t compare to other PS3 titles…even a game like Folklore could drop that one) but seriously…LAST REMNANT? BLUE DRAGON? You actually WANT to add those to the list. At the bottom of the article, I wrote: Remember, I only FEATURED the games which I believe are the console big hitters. Blue Dragon and Last Remnant are a far shot from hard hitters, both clocking some horrible reviews.

    And we are looking at current titles that are…as I said once before, hard hitters. Call of Duty 2, even though it is a xbox classic, is older than my grandpa’s slippers.

    So, once again (as I do own both consoles) I’m not fanboying. I’m simply looking at the statistics. And statistics says: Sony wins the exclusivity battle!

    Aye. Plus all the extras included that aren’t quite standard in the MS “pure game” machine. Personally I’d be happy with all games being cross-platform…that way we could all decide on which console to use (with preferences for looks, controllers, noise levels, failure rates and all the nasty things that the fanboy kiddies love to spit into everyone’s face).

    Some games are just ultimately better on the PC while others are more fun to have on a console because you get to sit on your ass in your comfy lazy boy…but in the end it’s all about the games now then ain’t it? :ermm:

    You missed all kinds of JRPG’s and even games like Kameo, and Banjo Kazooie and Viva Pinata. If you’re going to include Heavenly Sword you should at least include Kameo.

    So excuse me if I don’t put much weight into this comparison. While I agree Uncharted, MGS4 and Killzone 2 have the best quality the rest have comparable games on the 360.

    Also, wouldn’t this be better served after E3? I mean we are less than a week away and the gaming landscape can change for both of these consoles after. :pirate:

    Like what kinds of JRPG’s which were worthy of mentioning? Remember, JRPG’s are a very specific market, much the same as anime or manga. I mean, I have A LOT of friends who think anime and manga is retarted and don’t understand why i like it. Same with JRPG’s. Usually cheesy dialogue, sub par graphics, and mediocre gameplay. Hence why they get such bad reviews! As such:

    Xbox 360: Last Remnant, The (2008) 65

    The only JRPG I believe that has come out worthy of adding in there, is Final Fantasy. Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey are the same. Both got a metacritic score of 78. Which is good, but once again, not good enough. Yes yes, I know that is the same score as Heavenly Sword, but they didn’t receive NEARLY the same reception as Heavenly Sword did. You guys don’t really read what I write do you? you just look at the title and start flaming. I still said:

    Remember. I only featured the titles which I believed where the console big boys, so ones that people like bikkering and bantering about. I’m sorry to say, but I haven’t heard hour long discussions on which part of Blue Dragon or The Last Remnant you enjoyed more…

    As for the rest of your games:

    Kameo
    Banjo Kazooie
    Viva Pinata

    I was looking to do mostly new games. Almost all the games I featured are relatively new, having been released between 2007 and 2009 and made big waves. If you put Banjo Kazooie up against Ratchet & Clank…it’s not even a challenge.

    Playstation 3: Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (2007) 89

    Xbox 360: Banjo-Kazooie (2008) 79

    Even though Banjo-Kazooie is newer than Ratchet, it’s older when it comes to the franchise, as people know Ratchet more. Also, Banjo released the terrible nuts & bolts add-on, which was so horrible (in my opinion) that it made me :sick:

    Viva Pinata and Kameo…ok wait…Kameo? That is like THE FIRST game to basically come out on xbox360. You can pick that thing up in ANY bargain bin in places like Pick & Pay or Game, and that’s being generous. Yeah sure, the game might have gotten some okayish reviews, but the damn thing came out in 2005! Don’t believe me?

    Xbox 360: Kameo: Elements of Power (2005) 79

    Right there! 2005! Once again, I’m comparing the console big boys! And I already apologized for Viva Pinanata, all though I kind of feel like this is fanboying now.

    This feels like Playstation users shouting things that make no sense to xbox users, simply for no reason. Ah yes, then my plan would be working :devil: MWA HA HA HA HA!

    but the only thing i dont like is i know microsoft owns both PC AND 360
    but come on….
    there still two different platforms and/or consoles
    and i really wouldnt consider them exclusives
    for ex. Left 4 Dead
    sure i cant play it on PS3 but i can definitely play it on PC and in my opinion the PC version is better

    1. Bungie did not make Halo Wars, Ensemble Studios did.
    2. If the killzone 2 campaign took you 13 hours you really suck at video games. its a 6-7 hour game at most.
    3. MGS4 doesnt even have a hint of stealth in it. its an action shooter.

    Gears of War 2’s Graphics are better than MGS4 and that’s Gears won’t be coming to PS3, and to be Fair xbox360 exclusives have gotten more “Best Graphics and Game of the Year awards” then PS3 exclusives and note if Microsoft had a Blu-Ray in it would be able to run Sony Game’s it’s powerful enough and it’s been proven by Professional’s.

    Just because a game can be played on a PC as well doesn’t suddenly make it worse or obsolete. We’re talking PS3 vs XBOX 360 exclusives, so PC is irrelevant IMO, as PC isn’t a “console”, you can’t pop an XBOX disc into a PC and play it and people aren’t going to sell their XBOX because their favourite game suddenly went to PC.

    maybe you need to play mgs4, its almost impossible to distinguish between cut scene and game play.
    it is a very polished game (if not the best) from a visual point of view.
    as for actual game play, thats down to personal preference.

    Wrong, you can choose NOT to stealth. Or you can follow the traditional way MGS goes, and actually stealth the entire thing. Take a look at the in-game achievements buddy. They wouldn’t have one for stealthing everything, not being seen once, not killing anything, and finishing the game in under 5 minutes.

    The biggest issue nowadays is cross-platform work, in my opinion. The respective 1st party devs for both MS and Sony are doing fantastic work, and showing what the machines are really capable of. The problem is, developers and publishers only want money…they really don’t care about bringing the BEST experience to the forefront. Remember what they always say ‘We’re trying to make it exactly like the PS3 version’ or vice versa. That’s not the words of a company who really cares about the IP they’re delivering. Only quelling the fanboys so they can make a quick buck.

    Notice how Gears is one of the greater looking/playing games for the 360? Likewise, notice how Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, Uncharted, Killzone etc.. (I only list more of the Sony stuff because I have a PS3 and not a 360, I do realize there are some great other IP’s I’m missing…this is simply to prove a point) are the best looking/playing games for the PS3? Do you think it’s just a coincidence that they’re made by 1st party teams?

    It’s because those teams only have to work with one hardware set. Bungie, working solely on the 360, is going to put out VASTLY better IP than Bungie working multi-platform for the PS3/360, likewise with Polphony Digital, Studio Liverpool, and Guerilla.

    The machines have capabilities that the other does not. Developers need to get their heads out of their asses, and start pushing these machines the way they were built. Not simply making the most dumbed down version they can, simply to bring it to the largest audience possible. Sorry, as a gamer, I personally will take a pass on anything made in such a fashion.

    I like both consoles I prefer the XBOX 360 because the sixaxis control is a piece of sh… I agree that some game are really good on the PS3 but I wouldn’t say that the exclusives are better than the 360, at least not for now, XBOX has 141 games with rating over 80 in metacritic while the PS3 has 101. That is 40 more games in the 360. And by the way Heavenly Sword didn’t make the cut and I agree with that.

    My second Xbox just blew up on me (1 DVD drive one RROD) and must say MI Digital are a right bunch of pr!cks. Warranty claim sent through on the 12th of May and to date no feedback what so ever. No response to any of the follow up e-mails and phoning them is about as much fun as getting a prostate exam from Paul Bunyon.

    microsoft has the smallest list of exclusives, if it comes on pc then it it is not exclusive so they is no contest sony wins. to play killzone i had to buy a palystation to play it, xbox game i just buy it for my pc.so if i didnt have to buy a xbox to play it its not exclusive.

    Just out of curiousity,

    Why does this guy list games that haven’t even been released yet for the PS3, yet he doesn’t list the unreleased titles for the 360?

    And someone plese tell me how someone can eliminate Gears of War 1 and 2 from the 360 exclusives list?

    PS3 and Xbox 360 are both good consoles, (DUH) nevermind the Wii. :angel:

    But the reason I have an Xbox 360 is NOT because I’m an Xbox 360 fanboy… the Xbox just has the games I like that is not on the PS3… This is just me… PS3 games bore me.(I don’t like MSG, Killzone and what not. Its not the type of games I play. Heck I have a PSP, so no need for PS3.) But for others the PS3 has the games they like that the Xbox does not have etc… I agree, I like the Xbox remote much more. Feels so… fresh and something new to me. BTW I’d rather buy a R1700 console thats has GORGEOUS graphics (Ya Sony… just as goergeous graphics as your console, if not 1% better) than waste my money on an expensive PC that has SOME of the games the Xbox has. And I dont really need Blu-ray. I don’t waste money on buying Blu-ray movies. They’re expensive, I’d rather get the normal DVDs, as long as I get to see the movie… I’m happy. I don’t care about HD movies. And those people complaining about RROD… shows you how much you actually play the Xbox… Why else would it overheat of extremely LONG playing times? I do, however take my hat off to Sony for their inovative hardware and Blu-ray (not that Xbox needs Blu-ray)

    PS: I don’t have a PC… I have a laptop. 😉

    Alls I have to say about this article… All wrong…. lol I am a PC gamer and you went 100% wrong from calling Killzone the king of fps! If it isn’t on PC, it ain’t king… it is not possible! Second on most of these games, watch Zero Punctuation… that’ll set you straight, because as far as quality, PS3 has none apart from Little Big Planet. (not that XBox has many either…)

    Stop being a Gaystation Fanboy and look logically. You lost this round for the exact same reason XBox lost last round: You ditched fun for graphics and fancy crap hardware. :alien:

    That’s all fine and dandy (and clearlym even the way things are listed, the PS3 clearly has the best exclusive lineup), but …

    About half of the 360 “exclusives” are also available on PC. Meaning .. well .. I could have my PS3 and still play those games on my PC without having a 360.
    Not much of an “exclusive” lineup if you ask me …
    Only true exclusives so far are Halo 3 (1& 2 on PC), Fable 2 (1 on PC), Halo Wars (probably headed to PC though), and …. Viva pinata? (yuk)

    Oh, btw. The Last Remnant is confirmed for PS3, in an improved version, so it’s no exclusive anymore. Same for Bioshock 1 (and 2 now), Inferno (Alone in the Dark), etc. etc.

    In 2008 and now 2009, the 360 has bled “exclusives” faster than it took em from the PS3 in 2006/2007 it seems.

    P.S: I haven’t seen any trace of the great Valkyria Chronicles (one of the best games of 2008 imo), as well as Resistance 1 & 2, all three great exclusives for the PS3.

    Are you kidding me? I own an Xbox as well…and a gaming pc. I’m not a fan boy. This is about exclusivity. And how can you argue. The statistics are there. And about xbox having 140 games with metacritic scores of over 80…maybe…but they have been released WAY before Sony…that’s like saying PC has more exclusives…in 1985? I mean, come on! ANd about me listing games that haven’t been released yet…I listed 3 games, that we’re coming in the near future. Even if you take those 3 games out, Sony still wins. dude. Count them! It’s literally just more better games for sony. not about who has better graphics or anything. you guys are missing the point. It’s about…who has more games made solely for that console! geez…that’s why it’s called exclusivity!

    If the PS3 has *SO GOOD EXCLUSIVES* then WHY is the Xbox still in the lead?!

    BUT the Xbox 360 is not leading in the market for no reason…
    Even if PS3 had come out the same time as the Xbox… I still think the Xbox would be in the lead by a few 100 000s units… even though the PS3 has the *apparently fantastic Blu-ray that will apparently change your life as you know it and apparenlty ressurect your dead loved ones* WTF?! :getlost: geez… PS3 fanboys have weird imaginations. Face the facts… THANK YOU and have a nice day.

    But then again, we will have to wait for E3… and to be honest I CANT WAIT :devil:

    PS: If you guys (those defending the PS3 and its *apparently fantastic exclusitivity*) think the PS3 is so great. I would like to see you live your life with ONLY the PS3 and no Xbox… with ONLY the games that has come out till this very moment.

    Happy playing… hope the PS3 fulfills your *apparently fantastic exclusitivity* deathwish… good luck with that 😆

I mean, most of them still released on PC as well (o damn, here come the PC fanboys again) but I’m a console gamer. Through and through. Gears of War, Left 4 Dead and Halo were deal breakers for me. Gears of War especially. I played the second one religiously. It’s still…that what you just said…about the stylish cases, is why I buy the PS3 version of a game if it is avaliable on both consoles. Like Bionic Commando & Prototype…I know the graphics is probably gonna almost identical on both…the shiny clear case just looks nicer in my room than a freaking lumenous green box… :blink:

    4 million is not a bad figure considering gears2 has sold about 5 million copies, and if you factor in the 360’s lead, mgs4 has a better strike rate than gears2.

    but yeah, i think the 360 is maintaining its lead in sales by a small margin.
    the ps3 definitely wont catch up in 2009, unless something spectacular happens.

    I’d just like to say that i own a ps3. and i love it and i never regret it. I do admit that the 360 and the PS3 have about even the number of decent exclusives. It depends on which type you like better/which ones you dislike. I personally dislike Halo 3 story line (online is fun though), and i despise gears of war. I also find Fable redundant ( i HAVE played all before) I personally like Killzone, God of War III, Final Fantasy XIII VERSUS, Kingdom Hearts (maybe), and MGS4 and Gran Turismo, inFAMOUS, LBP I also like the Blu Ray player-i use netflix and they have a great variety of blu ray movies. So stop bashing each other and just agree that each person likes different games. I am not the biggest online gamer ever and would hate to have to pay 5$ a month for a feature i rarely use but have fun with.

    YES i am aware some of those games aren’t released yet.

    So all in all it depends on which games you like and which ones you dislike. And which features you like or dislike (blu ray or better online experience)

    i know i will get bashed for saying the 360 has a better online experience, but lets face it, most games for 360 have better online than the ps3.
