[QUOTE="Locutus_Picard"]

you do realize though that the 360 does have more high scoring exclusives than the ps3?

If two-third of your exclusive line-up for 2011 is made out of either Kinect or XBLA titles...
You know that it's looking grim...
And OP didn't even add upcoming PSN titles...that would have been adding salt to injury. (or was it insult?)

But whatever, keep up the farce of your console. It really has become the ''poor man's pc'' that only does multi-plats and a few good exclusives that tend to flop here and there. I'd say abandon ship and go to PC or even PS3. With the former being a statement to Micro$oft that they should return to PC in which they actually had good IP's. Heck, maybe we'll even see those long forgotten IP's like Freelancer back again instead of flops like Crackdown or whatnot.
And the latter is what you really should have in combination with a good PC, otherwise you're no gamer.

4. Haunt (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

5. Codename D (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

6. Rise of Nightmares (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

7. Steel Batalion (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

8. Star Wars (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

9. Forza 4 (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

Lionhead (Fable 4 - Kinect)

Rare ( ? - Kinect)

Remedy (Alan Wake 2 - Kinect)

Feelplus (RPG)

343 Industries (Halo project)

etc etc

So, 17 exclusives and far more to be revealed is not enough ? We are not even in 2011 yet for christ !!!!!!

CaseyWegner

a game on more than one system is not exclusive.

I will refine the list then

1. Codename Kingdoms (xbox 360 only)

2. Gears 3 (xbox 360 only)

3. Project Draco (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

4. Haunt (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

5. Codename D (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

6. Rise of Nightmares (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

7. Steel Batalion (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

8. Star Wars (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

9. Forza 4 (xbox 360 only - Kinect)

10. Battleblock theater (xbox 360 only - XBLA)

11. Dust Elysian Tale (xbox 360 only - XBLA)

12. Owlboy (xbox 360 only - XBLA)

13. Gun Loco (xbox 360 only)

14. HyBRID (xbox 360 only - XBLA)

Still 14 exclusives confirmed, which is far from bad imo

[QUOTE="-Renegade"]

We have reached the end of 2010 and what have Microsoft left their consumers to be excited about? Forza… really? What the heck is going on, Microsoft? We didn't even get an official Gears of War III announcement at this years VGAs? We all know it's coming so why not just go ahead an announce it – or is that game going multi-platform as well?

PlayStation 3 gamers have plenty of exclusives to look forward to already, starting as early as January next year. They have Little Big Planet 2, Killzone 3, The Last Guardian, The ICO Collection, inFamous 2, Motorstorm: Apocalypse, Resistance 3, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Socom 4, Twisted Metal and the heavily speculated Starhawk *wink, wink*. Further more, all of these games are guaranteed to be AAA titles and that's more than I can say for Microsoft's last exclusive release, which was my most anticipated game of 2010 and also happened to be a huge flop, Fable III.

It's hard to see Microsoft's strategy in all of this. Are they relying on Kinect to to be sole selling point of the consoles? No hardcore gamer would even consider buying an Xbox 360 over a PlayStation 3 this Christmas. Isn't Christmas the biggest opportunity for these companies to cash in? Yeah, sure, Kinect may be doing great numbers but a good percentage of devout gamers are going to be dumping the console if they don't get any good news soon.

Perhaps Microsoft have royally screwed themselves over and the Kinect is supposed to be their proverbial last chance perk. They haven't secured any independent developers for a long time and most of the studios that did develop exclusive titles for them have opted to go the way of the multi-plat, take Bungie for example. Independent developers don't want to do exclusive games any more, there is more money to be made doing multi-platform games despite handsome bribes by either parties. This is not just the case for Microsoft – Sony are losing exclusives by the numbers too – Final Fantasy, Grand Theft Auto, and Metal Gear Solid are perfect examples. Fortunately, Sony have secured a lot of great studios which gives them a great advantage over Microsoft. The only Microsoft in-house studios that I can count up from the top of my head are Turn 10, Lionhead, and RARE. There may be several more but, honestly, this is all I can think of right now. Sony, on the other hand, have Media Molecule, Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, Guerrilla Games, Polyphony Digital, Zipper Interactive, and Sucker Punch. It's safe to say that the PlayStation brand is future proof whereas things are looking grim for Microsoft's Xbox 360.

Microsoft could be sitting on something big and are just waiting for the right moment to blow us all away – maybe it's the Xbox 720, although that would be a extremely risky move. Only time will tell whether these are the dying days of the Xbox 360. From my standing point it certainly seems that way.

PS3 has over 20 confirmed exclusives for 2011 and Xbox has 2. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Microsoft has like 12 exclusives for 2011. Forza 4, Gears 3, Kingdoms, Haunt, Steel Battelion, Project Draco, Rise of Nightmares, Fire Pro Wrestling, Shadow of the Damn, etc.. [url][QUOTE="steve8198"] [QUOTE="spookykid143"] iRacing is better than both.

Do you have a pic to prove its better?

Better question, is it on game consoles? We are comparing 2 console games that are on 4 year old technology here. We're not comparing PC games.[/url]

I'd say abandon ship and go to PC or even PS3. With the former being a statement to Micro$oft that they should return to PC in which they actually had good IP's.

MS has been selling like hotcakes with hardly any exclusives this fall and with rumor price drops next year it'll continue to do so, why invest in exclusives when they're already meeting their goals?

That's the thing. Microsoft IS PC and XBox 360. All those games are Microsoft exclusives. None of them can be playing on the Wii or PS3. Last i checked Halo Reach and Forza 3 did not flop. Sure Microsoft had a few flops like on here, but so did Sony. Sont actually had more flops because they had more exclusives. lol!! Many of the Kinect games didn't flop at all. All of them were hyped AE, except Dance Central and that game didn't flop. Neither did Kinect Sports or Kinect Advantures.

-Renegade

heres a thought. lets wait till after the microsoft and E3 press conferences before we claim they have none. theres no need to announce crap5 years before its released. it just gets us hyped, and then you will be let down when the game blows (heres lookin at you GT5). 2nd, sony can announce 100 exclusives for the year and it wont matter. lets see how many get AAA before we claim it was the best year ever. It wont matter if they all turn out like Heavy Rain and MAG. 3rd, most of those awesome sony exclusives dont even interest me or the general public for that matter (i will buy Infamous 2 and UC3 though). Im more excited to play Gears 3 and Batman AC than any ps3 exclusive anyways

Mine won't be. I've got LOTS of games to play that I haven't even started. Red Dead Redemtion, Fable 3, Fallout 3: New Vegas, Singularity, Prototype, Tiger Woods 2011, Tomb Raider, Meat Boy, Dance Central, Kinect Adventures and so many, many more. My XBox 360 will never, ever collect dust this generation.

XBox 360 is selling well in the U.S. and Europe. Selling like crap in Japan though, like it always has.

GT5 has sold almost 4 million units, which is very good. Sold more then I predicted so far. I still don't think it'll reach 10 million however, but we'll see.

XBox 360 is selling well in the U.S. and Europe. Selling like crap in Japan though, like it always has.

blackace

I know that, both systems are selling well, but saying that the 360 is selling without nothing is incorrect.

why are you suddenly changing the criteria? i provided this link: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/02/05/ps3-worldwide-sales-cross-30-million/ is 30 million not a strong sales number?

Okay, off to Sony headquarters, wish me luck.

But seriously, just because Kinect sells better than Move doesn't mean the PS3 is not selling well, especially in Europe. I'm asuming you're basing this on the NPD report.

And the latter is what you really should have in combination with a good PC, otherwise you're no gamer.

I ask myself the same question. Gears of War 3, Forza 4 and a couple other games i won't bother looking at are not enough for me. MS needs to announce more games, fast.lusitanogamer

Ehh, as long as Kinect keeps selling, I don't think they will listen.:P

It does look bad doesn't it? Even though I Like Gears it's kind of been on the decline since the first, and I'm not a fan of racing sims either, I had high hopes for the VGAs but nada, the exclusive lineup is looking pretty lame and I don't see it getting any better sadly. Lucky for me I'll have my hands full with what the PS3 is putting out next year.

Sony doesn't end their 4th quarter until March 31, 2011. However world wide, Sony reached 40 million units a 3 or 4 months ago

Hey maybe those hardcore Kinect games will be good like PNF used to tout!:D

Anyways, Gears 3 will be more than enough for most 360 users since the multiplatform side of things are insane..:o

I feel like we say this every year and the game amount almost always ends up the same :/ Not only that, but MS doesn't have much pressure to make more exclusives because of their huge marketshare. Sony on the other hand has to give 360 gamers (like me) a reason to shell out $300 more, it's not so much "new" console buyers anymore as it is owners of other new consoles. I applaud Sony and their exclusives effort though and they've gotten just enough now that I'm buying a PS3 this week.

heretrix

What kind of PC do you have?

Laptop :P Intel DUO Core P8600 @ 2,4 Ghz 4GB DDR2 RAM Ati Radeon 3470 HD Oudated but still can run most games on medium or low. Planning to buy a new rig by end of next year. Already got the games for it. But what has this got to do with anything? I know what PC is capable of therefore I plan to quit consoles by end of next year.

We have reached the end of 2010 and what have Microsoft left their consumers to be excited about? Forza… really? What the heck is going on, Microsoft? We didn't even get an official Gears of War III announcement at this years VGAs? We all know it's coming so why not just go ahead an announce it – or is that game going multi-platform as well?

PlayStation 3 gamers have plenty of exclusives to look forward to already, starting as early as January next year. They have Little Big Planet 2, Killzone 3, The Last Guardian, The ICO Collection, inFamous 2, Motorstorm: Apocalypse, Resistance 3, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Socom 4, Twisted Metal and the heavily speculated Starhawk *wink, wink*. Further more, all of these games are guaranteed to be AAA titles and that's more than I can say for Microsoft's last exclusive release, which was my most anticipated game of 2010 and also happened to be a huge flop, Fable III.

He might be talking about budget. If so, then for the most part, he'd be right.

Really...those games not AAA? Maybe Motorstorm could be just AA but all others have shown gameplay footage hat scream AAA. I would take a nuke on the HQ of the developers to not score AAA.

as I said Cows don't actually play video games.

I highly doubt that study is based off of PS3 fanboys.

More like normal PS3 owners.. or the general population. Not every PS3 owner = cow.

I'm not sure what you mean by "talking about budget" but I do know that Motorstorm, Ico and Socom 4 surely won't be getting a AAA score here

it will be okay...

I remember last year the same kind of threads were made...

What does the 360 have for 2010?

Will it be enough?

Also, you have to be kidding yourself if all those exclusive games for the PS3 will release in one year. Sony will spread them out, so that the sales of one dont affect the other, while giving a good amount of high-quality exclusives over time. So expect delays.

And some of those kinect games also look good, don't count them out just because they are kinect.
