PS3 vs Xbox 360 vs Wii Exclusives Comparison

[Serren]

Found this on a Sony site. At least they were honest....



With the PS3 and Xbox 360 both on level ground in terms of graphics (at the moment anyway), many believe that the winner of the "console wars" will be determined by exclusives that sell each system. PSU has drawn up an accurate exclusives comparison, with the Wii thrown in too, to make it a little easier to predict the fate of Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo's current generation ventures.

Before we start though we would like to explain the rules and criteria we set up.

First off, we are using the up-to-date pre-order release list from Gamestop which dates to 6/20/07. We are not including any rumored projects or titles that have not been confirmed to Gamestop for pre-ordering.

Next we wanted to create a list of titles gamers can look forward to in terms of "upcoming exclusives". Thus, we are disregarding any titles that do not appear on the pre-order lists due to the fact that publishers have yet to finalize plans on platform release or the chance of cancellations and delays. This means games such as Final Fantasy XIII are not included.

Hopefully this makes the list as unbiased as possible, as we have not selected the titles which appear here.

Titles that are not listed:

- Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3): The title is not on Gamestop's pre-order list and is rumored to be coming to the Xbox 360.

- Two Worlds (Xbox 360): This title is not listed because Top Ware has confirmed that there will be a PS3 version called Two Worlds: The Temptation which is actually up for pre-order according to Gamestop's records and releases on 10/01/07.

- HAZE (PS3): We have listed Haze as a PS3 exclusive and we know this will probably cause a stir, but at the moment it's not available for pre-order on any other system.

Here is the complete list of upcoming exclusives for all three current gen platforms. As you can see, Nintendo's Wii takes 1st place with 31 titles, then Xbox 360 with 19, and PS3 coming in last with 12.

Thats actually not looking too bad for the PS3- the kicker is that they might be delayed for years lol

[GoatMother]

If those dates are legit then my wallet is going to be getting much lighter!

Must purchase:
Warhaw
Drake: Uncharted
Ratchet and Clank
Time Crisis 4: Hell yeah!!!!!
Haze

whenever I get a 360 again:
Halo 3 is a definite purchase
Too Human and Bioshock - almost guaranteed purchases

Soul Calibur Legends, Battalion Wars and Nights have me very intrigued, of course I don't have a Wii


Others look cool as well just not sold on them yet

Goat - After looking at Drakes again it does look pretty cool. Sure its kinda tomb raidery and a mix of a few different genres, but it looks pretty cool. I might end up picking that one up.

How about you go work on God of War so you can send it my way when your done.

Oh yeah, I gotta do that. Its hard to play GOW b/c I can't play it during the day when the kids are up, and when everyone is asleep it keeps everyone up (the PS3 is in the main HT area). Right now I'm playing Blazing Angels - that game is fun. But I'll make some time to play GoW so I can get it to you.

Don't say that tomb raider word again, lol

I might be all talk due to be starving for content and just rent some of those instead. Does feel good to see the gaming drought over though.

Current plans are at minimum I'm renting the Darkness as soon as possible. Maybe I'll buy as I loved Riddick but not sure on replayability yet. They need to make another one Riddick game next.

Where's MGS4? 360 version confirmed? Probably not, but this will give my March 08 theory some legs.

Isn't there a Riddick remake coming out? The Darkness is a rent for me as well. The single-player looks fun, but it doesn't look so good that I should spend $60(or $50) on it.
