Ps3 vs 360 exclusive games

If for one second you think that this behaviour is because they want to please their existing console owners you are deluding yourselves. Microsoft is doing this to stop Sony having an edge, nothing more and in the process hopefully pick up console sales for those consumers who have been sat on the fence.

It's also why timed exclusives can work really well. They give the impression that a game is an exclusive to those who are not avid gamers. It doesn't matter that one day it'll be out on the PS3 - and for a consumer with a few hundred quid in their pocket at that moment it makes the a compelling choice even if they are PS2 owners looking to move to next-gen. PC exclusives are less important, and to a certain extent a poor business decision.

An exclusive PC game does not make a specific hardware manufacturer any more money, so there should be little incentive for a developer to be PC exclusive at all. The only reason to stick to the PC is if the game can not function with a joypad many MMO's or digital distribution is the only cost effective way to sell the game Flash games etc but consoles are quickly moving in to this space. So, a strict definition of an exclusive should be A title only appearing on one platform.

In the process of doing this to weaken Sony, I don't think you can argue that Microsoft aren't pleasing their fans, even if it's only a result of them weakening Sony.

There is no confusion, the dictionary ain't confused. A Game is exclusive when its only appearing one ONE single system, therefor forcing the interested buyer to buy THAT system or not playing the game at all. The second you deliver on more than one platform you instantly loose exclusivity, cause people can play it on the other platform just as well. Before Microsoft, there was no such thing as "console exclusive", a game was either exclusive or it wasn't, but with so many XBox and games on PC, fanboys needed some way to justify the lack of exclusives on Microsoft consoles and "console exclusive" was born.

Honestly, I had never heard that term before the XBox. Regardless, when I want to play a game on consoles, I'm debating between getting it for PS3 or my I only see which is exclusive to which platforms. It's far more important for me, personally, to see which games I CAN'T play on a particular console before investing. Didn't think this site could write any articles worse or more meaningless than the trash they have written in the last few days, but its obvious I was wrong.

When a man declares that all Mac purchasers 'have their head up their arse' and that PSP's are 'only used to watch porn', you know full well you reading utter trash with no thought or insight at all. He then goes on to confirm that that they only write their rubbish to gets hits from the corporate frothers. But so many of you are like trained seals - throw you a fish and watch you clap.

As expected, the very fact its a "Vs" article means that it attracts plenty of comment despite the fact is says nothing I believe he was giving us insight into his character and daily habits! Micro needs to be aiming for some god of war that the Ps3 doesn't have Simple, an exclusive is an exclusive when you can only play it on ONE platform It is still coming out on TWO platforms, when this happens it has a hard time gaining enough traction on one platform to sell that platform.

Spin it however you like, its not an exclusive. If someone asked me "Where can I find the modern day neanderthals? Because Microsoft has succeeded in de-volutionizing some of it's consumers. They actually made these people believe that a PC and a Xbox is "One Platform" thus making those games "Exclusive". The story is too old to be commented. Agree 17 Disagree 0.

There is no doubt that the PlayStation 3 and Xbox have some fantastic exclusive games between them, which can really make up a users mind when deciding which console to own.

Sony meanwhile have a wealth of amazing games on the horizon such as The Last Guardian, Grand Turismo 5, the obvious releases of Killzone 3 and Resistance 3 and also Agent from Rockstar, all of which could turn out to be amazing titles.

Finally you also have to consider that other than normal exclusive games, a new generation of timed exclusives may also come into play, especially on Xbox Accessories for the PS3 include wireless controllers, the Playstation Eye camera, headsets and a motion controller named Playstation Move. Accessories for the Xbox include a webcam, headsets for chatting, dance mats and Gamercize for exercise, and its motion-control system, Kinect.

My ps3 just gets used more. Xbox Better price, more of your friends probably have one. It's not even available for several months so let's wait and pass judgement at the end of it's cycle not before it even begins. Let me know what you think? Is the better than the PS3?

Let me know what you think! Steve Lawton Columnist. Twitter Facebook. Published Jun. Your argument about "less annoying dinging sound for PS3" is incredibly juvenile, you realize you can disable that right, making it a pointless argument, and the fact that you say the controller is too small, yet in the picture above you can see it's the same size.

Steve Lawton June 13, , am. I understand a few of my decisions are juvenile. I did say in the beginning "So I've broken down a few categories we can all agree are important to me".

The controller feels small in my hands. Whether the exact dimensions of the two are comparable isn't my point. When using the PS3 controller it feels tiny in my hands. I know there are many more exclusives for each system then what I've listed. I won't list everything for either system but PS3 has the better selections in my opinion.
