Cumulative PS3 sales pass cumulative Xbox 360 sales in Europe?

I'm not on about this year, I'm on about total.

The Playstation 3 has more than two exclusives, sure, but it only really has three worth really writing home about (I forgot about Gran Turismo 5 Prologue as some people love it).

Then again, there is Katamari and Rock Band off the top of my head.

Katamari is on the 360 isn't it?
 
That's my point. He said he couldn't think of any other Xbox360 exclusives other than Ninja Gaiden II and Lost Odysee, so I said Rock Band and Katamari.

PS3 has had some very decent exclusives in my opinion, along with some very poor ones (Haze and Lair).

Rockband although an exclusive in Europe on 360 right now, has been available on Import to PS3 owners since before Christmas (and often working out cheaper than the retail EU Release)

For the rest of the year there is a steady release of exclusives on PS3 as we know, Little Big Planet, Resistance 2, SOCOM, Motorstorm 2.

I am more than happy with the PS3 exclusives thus far and am looking forward to what lies ahead. You say its exclusives list isn't great but I think it is starting to look stronger than the 360's

All personal opinion though, depends what games you like.
 
I am talking now, present, Europe.
The PS3 has 2, possibly 3 very decent exclusives, the rest have failed to step up to that standard. Games like Resistance and Motorstorm are good, but they are only 6-7/10 games at best, the sequels will be much better.

Metal Gear Solid 4 and Uncharted are undoubtedly 8-10/10 games, possibly GT5p (not for me, but definitely for others) is also in that catagory, which is my point. Games like Haze, Lair etc.. are actually pretty pants.

In your 3rd paragraph you're already talking about future games, which kind of backs up my point :p. If you think the PS3 exclusives list is stronger than the Xbox360 list now, then I want whatever you're on! :p

List some 360 exclusives then that are 8-10/10?

I'm not saying there are none, but you make it sound like the market is saturated with amazing 360 exclusives.

I honestly think it is getting pretty balanced between the two consoles.

Console Exclusives that are arguably 8-10?

Gears of War
Dead Rising
Mass Effect
Lost Odyssey
Crackdown
PGR4
Forza 2
Bioshock*
Condemned
Halo 3
COD2
Rock Band*
Viva Pinata
Saints Row
Test Drive Unlimited (also on PS2)

~ for me Blue Dragon but I can understand others saying it's a 7 or lower and I'd rank Kameo and Chromehounds very high but I can understand they're quite niche.

It's my list but all the games mentioned also scored 8 or higher by games(tm) and or metacritic.

There's not a huge difference, which I was trying to point out when Nokkon said the PS3 exclusives list is poor, it's not THAT bad, not much in it in my opinion.

/Edit: Added a few I forgot about - You could also stick Eye of Judgement and Time Crisis 4 in there, they usually do score over 8's but not on many sites.

I was going to say the same thing. LOL.

Anyway, can't we settle this with Metacritic? Microsoft themselves use this as a measure of games rankings. See what the average scores of those 2 lists of games on http://www.metacritic.com ?

how did halo 3 get 94?

Just seams like any of the bog standard shooters hat where on the pc a few years ago. :confused: I never got why halo was supposed to be so great.
 
how did halo 3 get 94?

Probably because of what it offered as package I would Imagine (atleast on the MP side of things)

-4 player Co-op
-Saved Films
-Your own personal online file space which everyone can access (for saved films, game types, map set-ups and screenshots)
-Forge - The ability to edit existing maps (with friends) for your own particular game types (think weapon/vehicle placement, spawn points, objective points, objects etc)
-Levels of customization never before seen in a console FPS

Those are just some of the things which will have contributed to the high scores.
