PS3 just really sucks for me.

I'm hoping that the 360 exclusives don't impress you much either, then. I personally think the PS3 has better exclusives now than the 360, but to each his own.

If you have a decent PC PS3 exclusives > Xbox

if you don't than I could see the argument that Xbox ones are better but I respectfully disagree and still consider the PS3 exclusives superior

for 360 I have

Halo 3
Halo ODST
GoW 1 & 2 (GoW 1 is available on PC)
Forza
Project Gotham Racing
Fable 1 (available on PC)
Fable 2

360/PC (I own these on PC)
Mass Effect 1 & 2
L4D 1 & 2

Upcoming:
Fable 3
Halo Reach

for PS 3

Uncharted 1 & 2
Resistance 1 & 2
Killzone 2
Ratchet and Clank (All 3)
Valkyria Chronicles
Devil May Cry 4
Metal Gear Solid
Little Bigplanet (ordered but have not recieved it yet)

Have not purchased yet but will when it drops in price:
Demon's Souls
Yakuza 3

Upcoming:
Heavy Rain
God of War 3
GT5 (maybe)
Yakuza 4 (maybe)

everything else I have is multiplatform

I didn't get Mass Effect for the Xbox since I had it for PC prior to buying my 360 and got Mass Effect 2 for PC since they came out at the same time

When faced with a multiplatform game, I always buy it for my 360.

Why?

Because you never know if the ps3 will get any DLC for that game in a reasonable amount of time. Sometimes they release the same, sometimes there are weeks or months difference. But the 360 is never the slow one, it's always the ps3.

I do have a pretty good gaming rig, but I still usually only play my PS3. Even if I didn't, I'd still prefer the exclusives PS3 has over the 360. I'm not necessarily saying they're better.

It's all a matter of opinion I guess. The majority of top-tier FPS games are multiplatform, in which case my preference is for the 360 controller and my greater number of friends with 360s (Live).

The only PS3 exclusives that interested me were Uncharted and KillZone 2. I rented and beat both Uncharted games, but didn't feel compelled to buy them and play through them multiple times. And KillZone2 was a giant whopping disappointment. I lost interest in Metal Gear Solid back with PS2 and MGS2: Sons Of Libery, and I'd rather have Mass Effect 2 than Little Big Planet.

To each their own, though.

As a launch purchaser of the PS3 I have been little more than immensely disappointed with it. The hardware is good, blue ray, powerful PC basically, but there are so many issues with the games and playing online that it has turned into a $600 mp3/blue ray player for me. I have all 3 systems but this is the only one I bought on release, and I still have that machine, but Sony has severely dropped the ball.

I've spent more time playing on my Wii than my PS3 since I realized Modern Warfare 2 was a complete piece of crap.
