PS3, here. 
And not that you need to change it now, or that it even applies, but Tales of Vesperia is coming to the PS3, last time I checked. So 28 and 41? >.>

Of course, the 360 still wins as far as the abundance of exclusives go (between the PS3 and 360). Still, I think the PS3 is superior. But that is just my opinion, obviously. Overall, all consoles rock. 
Ha. Overall, video games rock. :D

It's up between Wii, DS, and PS3.
 
Flip a coin twice.

" I am glad this blog/thread hasn't become a flame wars like I anticipated.  I thought that was your motive but I am glad I am mistaken ;)  That being said, to be frank, the last good Wii game that I played was....No More Heroes? Honestly I haven't played a Wii game in months, let alone buy one. The only recent releases that could possibly draw me in are Dead Space: Extraction or the Metroid Prime Trilogy. I have had a lot more fun with the 360 exclusives (Fable 2, Braid, Shadow Complex) and PS3 ones (UNCHARTED 2!!!) as of late. But to each his own, of course. "
No more surprised than I am  ^-^ 
 
Can we count this as a moment that proves that we can discuss different systems and their games with a minimum of immaturity.  I think it helped that I started with a spirit of belief that good to great games are everywhere.

" I find it extremely unfair to give xbox 360 more games just cause they are console exclusive and not actual exclusives(this kind of thinking usually comes from xbox fanboys, i am not accusing the OP of being one). If we were to continue on the same line of thinking we could add hundreds of games that run on linux  on ps3 and it would win, but that isn't correct now is it. I personally am looking forward towards trico and shin megami tensei 4 on PS3,monster hunter tri on wii, Urban terror 4.2 on PC and fable 3 on 360. There is no such thing as the console with best exclusives...it is down to personal preference.  "
We discussed the PC aspect of this point.  It is valid but not to this thread.  As for your last point, it is the crux of my blog, that being "a good game is a game you like" and that there is no right or wrong answer, just your answer.@teh_pwnzorer said:
" @oldschool:   if you want to post something even more informative, measure their terminal velocity in Earth's atmosphere by dropping them from a high altitude, on a windless day.   My guess is that the PS3 is the most aerodynamic. Also, I never knew Quake 4 was an XBox 360 exclusive.  Wow!  After all, I come to giantbomb to learn. "
Maybe we can et Mythbusters to try it.  I am guessing all those lightweight Wii games would slow the Wii down  ^-^ 
 
The original PS3 was a tank, surely that would hit the ground first.

????  Download games are not the discussion here, just retail games.  I think download games would make a good discussion, but this isn't the place, plus it is this gen games, not last gen ones (even if some early ones appeared on both).  The Linux stuff just isn't even slightly relevant.  Read the OP again to see what we are sticking with.

 Should help you complete the list ;)
You never in the original post mentioned only this generation games. 
Oh and please no trolling against linux.

I realise that you are a new poster here (with 5 posts so far), but you may want to take a little time to settle in before accusing someone of trolling something.  I don't use Linux and fail to see the relevance to this thread. 
 
Considering the OP excludes PC and download games specifically and then lists ONLY 360/PS3/Wii games, I think it is clearly implied.  Also, the baseline for inclusion was a 60 score on Metacritic, simply to keep things a little easy to work with.

Eh, I usually prefer 360 but now that I have a PS3 I'm obligated by new console love to claim it is superior, despite my wishes otherwise. Such will be the way when I buy a Wii, I think.

Was directed at you.
 "Oh and please no trolling against linux."  
Was directed at everyone that might be tempted to do it(due to my request of including games runnable in linux on PS3).
Anyway i forgive you :P
Btw nice topic.
A shame that Cross Edge was excluded due to the 50 something score in meta, it is probably because it is considered to be a complex and unique hardcore jrpg, in other words for a very niche audience, kind of like how baroque with wii :'(

I bought a 360 when it came out, and have recently bought a PS3 (after the price-drop). Having had a 360 for a longer period, i own a lot more 360 games but that doesn't mean it has the best exclusives. Both platforms have really good exclusives with Forza Motorsports, Mass Effect and Uncharted 2 being my favorites.

-Grand Slam Tennis (Xbox360 and PS3?) - The HD versions were cancelled, if I remember correctly.
-Rabbids Go Home (DS) - Same name, different game

-Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party (DS) - Same name, different game

To be honest it has to be the Wii for Super Mario Galaxy alone for me
No other game has tickled my nostalgia bone and innovated one the stale 3D platformer genre and pulled it out of it's rut
Great graphics and amazing music round out a package which epitomizes why you can still describe Nintendo titles as "magic" when done right.
None of my 360 or PS3 games have conjured anything like that yet in me
