How do you have any way of knowing any of this? The PS3 and Wii don't even have a game out in every one of those categories yet. It's far too early to judge this sort of thing.

If the 360 has already realeased more JRPGs than the PS3 and by the end of this year still have even more released how is JRPG PS3>360>Wii correct?

That was not indicated in your post or the title of the thread. And What RPG does the PS3 have coming out this year that is anywhere near the quality of any of the 360 RPGs? FF 13 isn't coming out this year and White Knight story probably won't either..Don't get me wrong, I know eventually the PS3 will have some great JRPGs but we are talking about just 2007 right?

I can't, because any list like that will ultimately end up a biased, opinionated breakdown unless I went around and collected a case study from multiple reviewers. That would take me like a week. 0_o

I'm only not too sure regarding the PS3 edging the 360 at racing, that with Forza 2 and Dirt very close by.

Then again, I think that one is a very, very contested genre.

It's really too early to tell........

And the Wii has Super Smash Brothers Brawl.That automatically gets the fighting genre for the Wii.

GT5 is way too far out to say anything about it. Between the two of them, yeah, I'd rather have them both than Forza, but then again, the 360 doesn't have only Forza.

At the moment Xbox360 is best at everything because it has a solid library.


One year from now, who knows? Maybe Metroid Prime 3 will score higher than Halo 3 and Killzone 2.

Genres are terms marketing departments use to define/classify games. Only initially contrived to coax in parents of game players, but soon after lost in oblivion, for only then the true factors emerge. The real "genres" should be classified as such: addiction, immersion, satisfaction, control and greater than all-fun. I, for one, am not so stupid as to believe games should be placed in the five or so preconceived groups; Neither should any of you be.:wink:

Take for instance Pyschonauts. It didn't sell well because it wasn't placed in any genre. Commercials never stated it was going to be the "platformer 2.0." Luckily, I didn't listen to marketing and I still got a great game. :)

P.S.: I support Tim Schafer.

This list is a farce. If you're not going to include PC, take away the Adventure (the point and click puzzle solving genre, I think you're thinking of action adventure, like Zelda), MMORPG and RTS genres, since all 3 consoles have extremely weak offerings in them and they are done exclusively well on PC.

Plz comment if I have missed any genres*No PC*

I know. That's basically the reason why I said it was a very, very contested genre... and that I wasn't sure the PS3 (and by corollary the 360) was a definite winner in that category.
