![]() ![]() The difference is even less pronounced in this case. By my reckoning a good game is a good game and it matters little if one costs less than the other. The only qualifier for this list is if they are platform exclusive, be they full-price or download titles. The following graphs are based on the scores of the top exclusive titles for each system. There is a logic to this, but the methodology seems to be quite sloppy, in that sites will choose which titles are classed as exclusive and which are included in the analysis. So, do we need to look at exclusives? Certainly that’s the trend, as more and more sites try to differentiate between the systems. Secondly, the lists are populated by the same names, in the Top 20 PS3 and XBox360 games there are 11 multiplatform titles, such as GRID, Fallout 3 and Soulcalibur 4. Firstly, the difference is so small, 0.1% and 0.4% that it’s really not enough to be able to make a compelling case for dominance. The results indicate that the PS3 edges the XBox360 in the top 10 comparisons but that is reversed in the top 20. The Wii lags behind by a few percentage points and the PS3 and XBox360 are neck and neck. I’ve not filtered these results at all, and this should be easily replicable by taking the top 20 scores from each system and getting mean averages from the top 10 and top 20 games respectively. The simplest comparison to make would be to look at the top games of each system, simply by looking at the metacritic data, and then find the average score for those games. Looking deeper into the mountain of data from Metacritic, it is possible to see some interesting titbits. That does mean you’d have bought and played to completion 363 games, which is beyond the means of most people, so the comparison is practically meaningless. The XBox360 could only manage a paltry 66.7%, so if you bought the entire reviewed PS3 and Xbox360 catalogue of 2008 you’d have exactly 3.7% more fun with the PS3 titles. ![]() According to Metacritic, the PS3 had the best games this year, with an average metacritic rating of 70.4%.
