Don Mattrick: Xbox 360 Has Better Games Than PS3 And Wii Combined, No Seriously

Gamersworldbd.com writes: It seems the new Xbox boss Don Mattrick is being flanked left and right. How true is his words claiming "You go onto Metacritic - and count the number of 90-rated titles on our platform, compare that to Wii, compare that to PlayStation 3: there is no comparison"? We did just that and put the new Xbox boss to the test. The results come out surprising.

esactly sony only has itself to blame for this issue...if they had released earlier or didnt have as many delays and such they would have both a larger library and more high ranked games...

So your saying would have rather they released an unreliable system with great games that you cant play anyway if you dont have a system to play it on, that to wait for a complete product? That logic doesn't make sense to me, they probably would have lost even more money as a result of even higher production costs a year earlier

0.5 - The facts are this...
Sony has less games with an average score above 90 on metacritic than MS. Thats it. You can love your games all you want, if you really do this should really matter. These guys love to come in here an tell you the the PS3 suck and all that other bullsh*t, but if you truely like the games that they deem "not good enough" tell them to shove it and get back to playing your game, but don't take it personally, they don't have sh*t else to do.

Games are subject to opinion.

Gears of War scored higher on Metacritc, but what if I as a gamer enjoyed Uncharted more, and that scored lower? You cant say my system is best because our games rate higher, that doesnt mean anything. Look at GTA4, almost everyone gave it a perfect score, but me as a gamer sees its far from it.

Besides it helps that Metacritic is funded by Microsoft.

Stick with Gamerankings.

Lol. Can you please explain how that influences the results since Metacritic takes the average of all reviews?

Do you realize how many reviewers MS needed to bribe to have an impact? Just accept that Sony is behind in the games department.

While I don't necessarily agree with him, and this comment is going to try to sound as unbiased/nonfanboy as possible, money and advertisements are a big factor in video game journalism. Remember the big scandal last year about Kane and Lynch at Gamespot last year? The biggest revenue for video game journalism is... video game advertisements.
Normally in journalism, you don't spend week after week after week detailing products made by the very companies that pay to put advertisements in your periodical. The video game industry is far too intertwined to keep full integrity. Not to mention that the availability of early review copies of certain games is often limited. I'm not naming any names, but there are a few companies whose game's reviews that I tend to ignore.

So, when you get early reviews hyping things to hell and saying big things, it has a big affect on everyone else. Some people still have their opinions, but hype has a big affect on reviews.

Doesn't matter because gamers will only need to buy 1 PS3 or 1 Wii during their console cycle whereas 1 year into the 360's console cycle you already have gamers on the 3rd or 4th 360! It doesn't matter how much better Live is than PSN & it doesn't matter how many more 90-rated titles 360 has over PS3 or Wii, none of it changes the fact that the 360 is an utter piece of cr*p that should have been recalled about 6 months after it's launch.

Blah, blah, blah

I've had 2 360's but I've only paid for one in almost 3 years, thanks to the great warranty MS provides for the 360. What happens when a ps3 owners supposedly "godlike" ps3 craps out after the 1 year warranty is up? You go buy a new one, and with the ps2's hardware track record, I would start getting nervous the day my ps3 turned 1 year old.

Ironically, the RROD is the ps3 fanboy's biggest hope. As soon as there is discussion about anything where the Xbox360 comes out on top, RROD is mentioned.

My ps3 is 2 years old. Hasn't had a single problem.

So i'm not exactly afraid.

It's the idiots that don't treat their consoles well that have to return theirs or buy new ones.

The 360 has more "quality" games, and has more "quantity" of games.

It wins in both categories, not just one.

No sony released in its first year rachet and clank and uncharted which are both 1 point away from AAA. and in its second year mgs4 so far. And bioshock is multiplatform. so that does not count.

well seeing as bioshock has been on 360 for nearly a year and it still hasnt hit ps3, ill say timed exclusive. Heavenly sword= hack and slash wanna-be dynasty warriors 1000 ratchet= a game that needed multiplayer, not worth $60 Warhawk - Fun. Resistance - Absolute crap. I don't understand how it even managed 7.0s :/ I love mgs4 which is the only AAA title in 2 years. Thats PATHETIC.

You know what I think?

I think that N4G needs to moderate the god damn gamer zone more. The amount of idiot fanboys in this comments section is staggering.

"LOL METACRITIC IS BEING PAID BY M$$$$$$$$$ LALALWALWAWL"

"LOL SCORZ DONT MATTER BUT MGS4 GOT A 10! HWICH MATERZ LULUL!"

My god.

The facts are there. The 360 has the highest aggregate scores from reviewers. This doesn't impact your life in any negative way. If you're a 360 owner, it's further confirmation that you've bought an excellent console. If you're not a 360 owner, it still points out that the other systems DO have quality titles, and no one is trying to say they don't.

In the end, reviews are opinions. Opinions aren't facts.

What MS doesn't want you to know is that they've had 1 full retail exclusive game this year get over 80% with NG2 at 82.5%

The PS3 this year so far has had 5 exclusives average over 80% with MGS4 at 92.6% being the highest. It hasn't been a great year for the 360 and quality titles compared to previous years.

Interesting to know that multiplat games that run better on the PS3 actually score lower than their 360 counterparts. Burnout Paradise and Oblivion anyone?

Only confirms to me that there is a definitive interest bias in this generation's console competition.

16 - it's always funny to see microsoft and its fans pull out "USELESS NUMBERS"
to make themselves feel better when they are geting outsold worldwide.

"we have better games."
"we have higher scores."
"we have a better online service."
"we have achievements."
"we have such and such amount of connected online gamers."

but somehow,with all this "supposedly" better stuff,no one cares about 360 as much as the fans think we care.

better games is a personal preference or opinion.and all these games you guys speak of end up getting forgotten.no one talks about perfect dark,test drive,crack down,ace combat,forza2,etc.i see many gamers talk ***ALOT*** about gears of war and maybe call of duty 4,a multiplatform game,but it seems that all these games have no substance.QUANTITY OVER QUALITY?

bullsh!t!

1)if 360 has the best "GAMES",why is the system getting OUTSOLD?
2)if 360 has the best "SCORES",why is the system getting OUTSOLD?
3)if 360 has the best "ONLINE SERVICE",why is the system getting OUTSOLD?
4)if the system has better "ACHIEVEMENTS",why is the system getting OUTSOLD?
5)if 360 has more "ONLINE GAMERS"............

WHY IS THE SYSTEM GETTING OUTSOLD?

it's been out longer,has easier dev time to make games,has third party support,has japanese support,but yet......

YOUR GETTING OUTSOLD.

why aren't you guys touting how many consoles are sold over the other 2 systems anymore?

oh,i know why.360 got outsold by nintendo wii in all regions,and sony is outselling 360 worldwide at a higher price.

amazing how the systems that supposedly don't have better games,better online,better graphics,etc,is......OUTSELLIN G the competition.

pull as many numbers out of your @sses all you want.but in the end,360 is getting outsold worldwide.you can look to vgchartz,Metacritic,biased websites all you want,but the facts are,your system lost momentum,is getting outsold and all you have to look for is microsoft's next system.and trying to get gamers to believe too human is anything more than average still doesn't mean it's any good if you have to play it 10x to find the fun factor.

seriously,i want any 360 fan to explain to me why with all this good stuff you got,you are getting outsold?

apocalypse.........
