I think this could likely decide the console wars, as 3rd party titles seem to not want to stick with only one console this generation. I think Sony puts out more games, but MS has come killers...Resistance isn't nearly as fun after playing Gears, I feel like an idiot out in the open...it doesnt feel reaslistic at all.

If MGS4 goes over to the 360 (ik its a rumor) then we will really see the need for Sony to put out some killer 1st party titles...

I'm not going to say which is better, because I am honestly not that familiar with which PS2/PS3 titles are indeed first party ones, but I will say that I have been surprised by the amount of quality first party titles available for the X360 this generation.  I know MS had to pay large sums to get some of that development power, but still, they're doing an admirable job.

Microsoft has superior 1st party games:

Halo2 > Any Sony FPS

Forza > GT (Gamespot agrees)

Gears of War > Any Sony TPS

Sony has the better platformers though.

Even if Sony has superior 1st party titles they are coming out in 2008. GT5, MGS4, FF13, DMC4, God of War 3, almost everything else is multi-plat. I think we are getting a pretty good deal from this, we get to play a ton of cool 360 games this year and maybe by around fall 2008 when the great PS3 titles finally release we will also see a PS3 price drop.

Well since you're including Gears, you'll have to add "Second party" to the list. Also, since Sony Pictures are producing the MGS movie, I don't think it's likely MGS4 will be making its way to the 360 :P

Fable + Halo + PGR + hopefully another Crimson Skies = MS wins imo. I do love Ratchet & Clank though.

Looking at quality versus quantity, right?

Well MS has Halo. Nuff said.

While MS does seem to have more 1st party killer aps, Sony has more diversity in theirs.

Sony has the best 1st party titles by far. And so far, they're the only one with 3rd party titles that are staying exclusive that I'm actually interested in.

And I felt the opposite... Gears is a fun game, but Resistance had a much more satisfying single player campaign than Gears did. I liked the online on Resistance more too, but Gears online is pretty fun too... just a different feel. But in the end, the only thing better about Gears is the graphics.

And yet that hasn't saved them the last 2 gens. Good point guys. I guess 1st party titles don't win a console war.

Although M$s 1st party titles tend to be a little better, Sony has much more quanity of rock soild 1st party titles. Much more diverse as well. More RPGs, adventure, platformer, racing, action games than M$'s FPSs and racing games.

Microsoft does shooters well. But IMO, those are the only strong titles they have.

You are right, it can get the ball rolling but it can't keep it going.
