    Now before I get attacked by PS3 fans and Xbox fans come in for the attack, this is my serious look at the PS3 exclusives and whether the PS3 has really set itself apart as a console a gamer must have. I will get to the 360 soon. Also keep in mind, I have a PS3 and have no regrets buying one, it is in my view the best hardware of this generation (from a purely technical standpoint).

    Having had my PS3 for quite a while now, I was thinking about what sets it apart from the 360. Most of the games available are available on both consoles, so unless one or the other (or both) have enough great (a personal perspective) games not available anywhere else, then one could easily survive on a single console, rather than both (I could never be satisfied with one).

    When I am looking around for games to add to my collection, I really find it difficult to get excited about the PS3 library. I might add that the PS3 is my choice of console for multiplatform games, unless there is a decent price difference. It is also my choice for games that require the 360 to go with multiple discs, such as Final Fantasy XIII. In respect to the exclusives, I really struggle to get interested in much that Sony has exclusive rights to. Consequently I thought I would list those games that I wouldn't want to miss out on this generation by not having a PS3:

    1. Demon Souls
    2. Disgaea 3
    3. Disgaea 4
    4. Gran Turismo 5
    5. Tales of Xillia (if we get the translation)
    6. Valkyria Chronicles

    That's it. Not exactly a plethora of titles is it? Hardly worth owning a PS3 for in my case. Yet I wouldn't want to have missed out on the 5 of those I have and thoroughly enjoyed. So I throw the question open in the form of:

    Can you name 10 exclusive PS3 titles worth owning the PS3 for?

    I couldn't.

    Be honest, just go for the games you just have to play, not the ones you kind of like.

    ...same thing can be said about 360 or Wii...I don't see the point really. I can't name 10 360 games that I think are worth going out and buyin a 360 immediately for. I've owned one since launch. Gears of War, Halo, Alan Wake (edit: forgot Forza). That's about all that I can think of.

    As for PS3 games you missed that I think are worth mentioning whether I think they are really good or not:

    Uncharted

    Little Big Planet

    and now Twisted Metal is something I'll be picking up soon

    Siren on PSN isnt bad either

    Most games just arent exclusive anymore. Thus, I would be satisfied if I just had one console.

    The 360 is my point ..... you are right, most games aren't exclusive these days and it does kind of make owning both consoles a bit more difficult to justify (The Wii is completely different, as Nintendo have so many exclusive games the list could be extremely long depending on your tastes).

    I only listed a subjective list of what mattered to me, which is why I could only hit 6 games. The other games already mentioned like LittleBigPlanet, Unchartered, God of War, Metal Gear Solid or Killzone just don't hold any appeal to me. I do think some people will just add games they like, as opposed to being really honest about games they must have - perhaps to justify their purchase, but again, this is purely personal taste and there is no such thing as a right or wrong answer.

    @Contrarian:

    To be honest, I don't even know what games are PS3 exclusive. When I had to decide which console to get 3 years ago I actually had to think about it half a year, although I usually don't need a lot of time to make decisions.

    I eventually bought a PS3 because of the graphics. In most cases the PS3 has better ones than the xbox, mostly regarding textures and sharpness. Back then I also heard a lot of bad stuff about the xbox, that it breaks easily and the support can't keep up, so it's in repair for several months and stuff.

    However, when it comes to games the Wii would probably be a choice for a second console. I like JRPGs and the Nintendo characters in general. Unfortunately, there is no achivement system, which has become a great motivation for me in the past months to invest more time in games.

    Is this a matter worse this generation than last? I seem to remember more exclusives last time. Thing is though, does it really matter? I like to think it does actually.

    Well personally I didn't really like LittleBigPlanet or Uncharted that much. If there is one single game that I was make someone play on PS3 it would probably be Demons Souls. I still find it to be better than Dark Souls.

    I dunno how much a PS3 even costs these days but 6 games that appeal to me wouldn't be enough for me to buy the console if you already have the other one. I've been moving away from my 360 and just buying my stuff on PS3...personal preference. I'm more into the whole PS3/PSN system than I ever was in Xbox/Xbox Live. I find it almost a hassle going back and forth and like just having all my games and online purchases on one console. First world problems! I will miss my Gears of War and Forza tho.

    I can't even name one. Not one game on that system makes me glad I own it.

    It's lucky that thing is also a Blu-Ray player. I can't name any exclusives I'm glad I own the system for on 360 either, just to be fair.

    I don't know if you own a Wii but most game exclusive to the Wii that are not from Nintendo are crap. I really see no point for this thread to exists.

    Almost all of them are multi-platform or PC exclusives.

    There has been games I enjoyed on PS3, but looking back I could have gone without them very easily. I don't think any exclusives have lived up to the hype for me, on 360 or PS3 this generation.

    I'd... probably omit Siren: Blood Curse from that list. While it's not outright terrible, it still isn't exactly a PS3 highlight.

    I waited for some improvements in the 360 before I got mine. I waited for a price drop on the PS3 (from $1000 to $300) before I got one. The gap between that was near 3 years, so my 360 collection got a big head start. The only thing about PS3 hardware I don't care for is the controller, but I can live with it. I haven't had technical issues with either.

    I could name quite a lot for PC I think, I mean that thing has The Witcher 2, so it can do no wrong.

    (The Wii is completely different, as Nintendo have so many exclusive games the list could be extremely long depending on your tastes).

    I don't know if you own a Wii but most game exclusive to the Wii that are not from Nintendo are crap. I really see no point for this thread to exists.

    That is why I deliberately left the Wii out of this equation, it isn't relevant to the discussion. The thread exists because I wrote it, but it isn't about which is "better because", rather a serious discussion on where we are these days with exclusives. I think I made it clear I have both consoles and even using the PS3 as an example, pointing out that it is my preferred console. If you don't have a view, it doesn't really matter.

    @Contrarian: Not having as many exclusives is A Good Thing.

    I don't know that I agree. There is something about having exclusives that seem special to me, but it is hard to explain what that is. In a way, I feel that it devalues a game/franchise when it is everywhere ..... if that makes sense (probably not).

    I can't even name one. Not one game on that system makes me glad I own it.

    It's lucky that thing is also a Blu-Ray player. I can't name any exclusives I'm glad I own the system for on 360 either, just to be fair.

    What about the PC? Are you glad to own a gaming PC?

    I could name quite a lot for PC I think, I mean that thing has The Witcher 2, so it can do no wrong.

    So why do you own a PS3 and a 360?

    @Contrarian: There are devices out there you can buy to use a 360 controller on the PS3. One of my buddies from MAG eventually got one. He said the triggers were a bit... wrong, but it worked fine.

    Well in that case, I think every system has enough games worth owning it for. If you have the money to buy every system, and you genuinely love video games, you're only doing yourself a disservice by not owning them all.

    I bought a PS3 about six months back. The exclusives that I thought were worth it were Infamous 1 and Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction.

    I don't see why that would matter. I own both and feel there is little in exclusives I care about and I don't have any regret owning both. It does give me the option of buying clearance games that may be available for one, but not the other. I don't see a problem with it, but how much money you have for your hobby does dictate what you spend it on - I can afford all. Mind you, I can only buy PC games my Mac will run, but I only like strategy anyway and they have all run fine.

    I have always agreed with that view. That is why I even owned the little loved PSP and had no regrets. I love having options and embrace all.

    I think I have seen differently shaped 3rd party PS3 controllers, but I generally prefer 1st party ones for greater reliability. Interesting thought though.

    Is this a matter worse this generation than last? I seem to remember more exclusives last time. Thing is though, does it really matter? I like to think it does actually.

    Actually it's a good thing. This means the best games are on both systems.

    I feel the same way about the 360.

    Edit: Also, I've settled with the notion that I probably want to stay with the sony ecosystem.

    No I mean games that just don't come out on PC. Such as Catherine, Vanquish, Bayonetta, MGS HD Collection, Street Fighter IV (technically this did, but it took a long time), Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and quite a lot of others.

    Uncharted 1, Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, Heavy Rain, God of War III (+ HD Collection if you haven't played I and II)

    Those are the must owns, but since I don't really care about any of the xbox exclusives other than maybe Alan Wake, which you can buy on PC soon, I'm completely happy.

    I can't even mention one xbox exclusive worth buying. Limbo, we got that. Mass Effect, you lost that one too Xbox. Plus The last of us is coming out soon, I'ill say it's looking grim for the old xbox.

    I don't call games 'console exclusive' I just take into account that they clearly thought a PC version wasn't worthwhile, or didn't have the resources to do so. Plus everybody knows Japan don't develop games for PC, Capcom are like the only developer who port the games over.

    I can't, but I also can't name 10 360 exclusives worth owning one of those for. I did buy a ps3 over a 360 though because the exclusives were better imo (Demon's Souls, MGS4, Uncharted 2). I certainly could name 10 pc exclusives, but that's not fair since it has such a huge back catalogue of great games
