One of the things that let to Xbox getting a huge jump on PS3, in sales, was their exclusives. Bioshock, ME, Gears and Halo were huge early in this console gen. Anyone heard of any new xbox exclusives? Obviously I know about Gears and Halo but they really could use more exclusives.

Aside from Nintendo's obvious titles (Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong)andcertain PC games (Starcraft, Heroes of Might and Magic)the number of exclusives for systems will only go down. It isn't good for business in the long run when companies do this unless the game is wildly popular. The majority of games released will be multiplatform from now on.

As far as I can tell, other than.. Fable Halo Forza Microsoft has either let their exclusivity deals run out on their IPs or they weren't offering up enough cash to hold exclusivity licensing. In any case I think Blueresident87 pretty much hit the nail on the head. We are coming to a point that unless the IPs are first party IPs you aren't going to see too many more exclusive titles.

Exclusives gives us a reason to play a particular console because that experience can only be had on said console.

The Mech Warrior game coming out in 2013 is 360 exclusive. A lot of 360's exclusives are arcade or Kinect titles, though. Fable: The Journey, eventually Fable 4, Ryse, hopefully an Alan Wake 2, those Codename: Class 3 and Class 4 games, also a Codename D, Forza 4, and Kinect Star Wars. Off the top of my head, this is what I am able to think of.

Not really man, ms is the kind of company to go for sure things, like gears . They are not sony they dont fund alot of developers. If you want exclusives theres only 1 console for that....

Everything! Consoles need exclusives - it helps sell hardware. I have both consoles and the PS3 has released at least 8 exclusives (not including HD remakes) so far this year. As far as I know, the 360 has yet to release an exclusive that isn't Kinect related. I love my 360, but where are the exclusives???

Here is the first screenshot from the zombie XBLA game and full retail MMO (they share the same engine and are being developed concurrently).

Aside from Gears of War 3 and Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary theres also Forza 4 and Gunstringer. Not many big things at retail this fall but theres always a wealth of exclusive downloadable titles.

Exclusives announced so far that come to my mind:

Gears of War 3

Halo Anniversary

Forza Motorsport 4

Ryse

Alan Wake (sequel)

Halo 4

and a few kinect games like Dance Central 2, Kinect Sports 2, etc...

Yea is MS does'nt pic it up there will be very litte reason to own a 360. Hell at this momment for me the benefits of owning a 360 is slim. The only thing keeping e is xbox live and the friend and family on it, and two exclusives Gears and Halo. Thats it. I am glad a also own a ps3 because I would be pretty sad if I only owned an xbox at this point.
