Rascal’s Reality Check: The Xbox 360 has a lot of console exclusives.
Let’s face it…this generation is full of fanboys from all sides. Fanboys usually are people who only own one system and/or talk trash about a system without knowing the facts. For example, DS fanboys said the PSP had no good games, while PSP fanboys said that the DS was only for children. We all know both of these are false, but this is the result of bias and ignorance.
Today, I’m going to list all of the 360 console exclusives. Next time someone tries to tell you the 360 has no games, show them this article, will you? We are all gamers. We should all love the consoles equally.
Also, keep in mind this does not include XBLA games. The Marketplace has a ton of great, exclusive downloadable-only titles that are better then most retail releases…like Shadow Complex and Bastion.
Not all of these games are good, nor were all of them released worldwide, but no one will second guess the exclusives of the system now.
Also keep in mind that the “Yes” refers to ONLY being available on the Xbox 360, while “Console” refers to only being on the Xbox 360 and PC(hence the title, console exclusive)
