xbox exclusives

[eternalinferno]

Ok so I just got a 360, I already have mass effect, gears of war, halo reach and fable 3 tho I don't intend to play it, any 360 exclusives I should get that I might not know about already?

Xbox doesn't have many great exclusives in my opinion. I guess Forza if you like racing sims. Maybe Alan Wake?

 

[StrainedEyes]

- Shadow Complex on XBLA
- Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
- Alan Wake
- Uhh...

Yeah, the 360 is not exactly an 'exclusives' powerhouse.

I forgot about Banjo. That's a good one too.

Geometry Wars 2 is awesome. I'm not sure if it's exclusive though.

Aegis Wing isn't great, but it's free and exclusive. I think.

My ps3 is still gonna be my main gaming system, so luckily I don't have to overwhelmed by the amount of 360 exclusives, I just remembered about splinter cell conviction, def gonna be picking that up

ive never really cared for any system exclusive games... and nintendo depends on those lol

Yeah, like it's already said, the Xbox 360 is not a powerhouse for exclusives. The strength of the console comes from the online community and entertainment features.

And about 95% of the time 3rd party games are better on the 360.

That's how it used to be, but not anymore. Third party games nowadays are pretty much on par with one another 95% of the time. Developers have gotten much better with PS3 development and many of them such as Electronic Arts are now using the PS3 as the lead console.

 

[jacobed]

Eh they have gotten much closer now a days but for the most part the 360 version is still better except for the fact that sometimes there are multiple discs.

 

[Soapy]

Yep. Most of the time 360 and PS3 games are identical except for small differences here or there, but every so often you still get the odd game that for whatever reason just doesn't seem to get along with the PS3 very well. Like Bayonetta or Skyrim.

Left 4 Dead falls into that category.

Skyrim says otherwise.

Generally if there is ever a difference between the 2 systems, the better version will be on the 360.


As for the OP's orig question, yea the 360 doesn't have s**t for 'exclusives' other than what has been mentioned, and even those exclusives can't touch the Uncharted's or MGS4. Altho Gears 3 is really, really good.

Doesn't Skyrim have the same problems on the 360 due to the limitations of consoles in general?

Nah. There's a widespread problem with Skyrim on PS3 that makes the game literally unplayable after 40-50 hours of playtime.

Damn!
