Top 10 Exclusives We'd Love To Steal @ E3'09

OXCGN:

"For all the exclusives confirmed and soon to be confirmed for the Xbox 360, there are as always some stellar titles on other platforms. Most of us (80%) here at OXCGN are lucky enough to have both an Xbox 360 & PS3, along with the occasional Wii and the standard PC.

However, for many of our readers who only have the one console, namely the Xbox 360, we feel it's our duty to indulge in a bit of fun and a whole lot of wishful thinking. So here are our picks for the exclusives on the Wii, PS3 and PC that we'd most like to see magically announced for the 360 at this year's E3.

And be warned… our big wish of last year, Final Fantasy XIII, came true… and we think there's at least one of the following that'll do the same this year."

[Immortal Kaim]

Can't believe they picked FFXIII being 'stolen' last year. The only one I can actually see happening this time is MGS...? Maybe?

[Forrest Gump]

Yeah,but since MGS4 came out a year ago on the Ps3,very few Ps3 owners will actually care because the possibility of it happening is very much alive.I think the reason why FF13 had such an effect was due to nobody seeing it coming,MGS4 on 360 rumors have been popping up every Monday,Wednesday,Friday...You get the point.

I'd say if Kojimas next Metal Geer game were to be exclusive to Microsoft,all hell would break loose(On the internet,mind you).

[Immortal Kaim]

Agree Gump, I wasn't saying I wanted it to go to 360, just that it is the most likely (given Sony actually owns most of the others). I loved playing MGS4 on the PS3, I don't see a need for it to go elsewhere.

[decapitator]

6 PS3 games..erm..Why not just buy a PS3 ? Maybe you may not know this but Sony owns the IP's for GOW, Uncharted, Heavy Rain, Team Ico Game.

And whatever that new MGS game is, it's probably multiplatform anyway.

[Dark Collosis]

DIABLO 3 would own if MS got it as a PC/360 exclusive.. Sorry i loved god of war 1 and 2, but no game on that list would have me more excited than hearing Diablo 3 on the 360..

[BRACHATTACK]

Exclusives define a console.

Buy the consoles with the games you like!

[gaffyh]

@Forrest - I don't think Metal Gear will ever be 360 exclusive ever now. PS3 version sold very very well, 4.7 million+ shows that they will make a lot of money with the next game

[Viper7]

Dunno about steal, but I think its more likely to see next MGS game to go Multi platform. However this isn't a steal as Kojima hasn't announced any platforms to begin with. Solid snake has already appeared on Nintendo's and Microsoft's console before and considering the way of 3rd party devs this year its very likely to see next project on at least both hd consoles.

As for Mgs4, its possible but considering its an pretty "old" game already I think they should focus on MGS"5" instead.

[Game13a13y]

... is that i bet half of those games can't be done on the 360 without being noticeably downgraded. anyway, nice list ;)

[FamilyGuy]

It's at %40 user vote right now and some idiot claimed it wasn't a "system seller" because GOW2 sold less than GOW 1. As they said , it will never go to other consoles (unless sony falls hard and pulls a sega) so it will definitely sell systems.

I said it before, GOW2s release was just bad timing. The 360 had come out already and the PS3 about to come out (or out) and it was releasing on the PS2. It was overlooked/overshadowed, plain and simple.

I think they should have excluded china town wars, maybe as a $10-$15 market place download...

[gaminoz]

I'd have Heavy Rain and Uncharted 2 way higher and Killzone 2 (which I'm playing atm) and GOW way lower- but that's just my taste.

I'm finding Killzone 2 rather generic, despite the great AI and pretty lens flare...

I wonder if any would ever make it to 360...most wouldn't. No harm for 360 owners to dream though.

[XboxOZ360]

I would LOVE Heavy Rain on the 360, I'll even get it for the PS3 should god give me one, as it's without a doubt one of the best games I've seen in a long time, sorry MS, but it is.

[darkmurder]

God of War /drools, would love Uncharted 2. But I'll just have to make do with what I have on my console :)

[t-dizzle]

The Internet needs more of this!!! I have a 360 but respect the PS3 line-up of games. I am not saying it is better or worse than 360s because I am really really happy with the 360 line-up (own over 30 games and at least 10 are exclusives). So I am content with what I have, but acknowledge the wealth of great games coming to the other system. I know PS3 owners who wish they were able to play Gears 2 and L4D. Enough of this MS vs. Sony, Mac vs. PC, HD-Dvd vs. Blu-ray, Coke vs. Pepsi, Duracell vs. Energizer, Crest vs. Colgate BS. (By the way, Crest toothpaste ftw!!!)

[Myze]

@4.1

Ok...it's posts like this that make me mad. Pepsi is clearly so much better than Coke it's no contest, so it's worth arguing about. ;)

[ThanatosDMC]

You're kidding! Coke >> Pepsi

HAHHAH... jk!

[REALgamer]

...when they admit there are some excellent PS3 games that they'd love to see on 360.

You know, instead of the usual Xbox / PS3 sites that decide every game on the opposite platform is crap.

[7thNightvolley]

tell that to the fanboys

¬_¬ *looks at bubbles*

[Perjoss]

its not stealing, its almost like what Robin Hood used to do, take stuff from the greedy so more people could enjoy it.

[shazui123]

since the many could enjoy what the greedy have by just going to the shops, why dont they get out their wallet and enjoy the platform with the majority of amazing games?

[locos85]

I though the greedy was the company that paid 3rd party publishers to keep their games to one console and not let others enjoy it. Who does that in today's industry?

[saimcheeda]

M$ n its fans can only think of stealing things!!!

[theEnemy]

I would pick:

1. MGS4/Next MGS
2. God of War III
3. Killzone 2
4. Uncharted 1 and 2
5. InFamous.

:)

[themyk]

that is a good list there fella. let me tell you first hand they are amazing.

i mean the ones that are out of course. but i'm sure we can asume the others are going to be great as well

[OmarJA]

Unfortunately there's nothing interesting on the the 360 to steal.

[Mo0eY]

Zing!

[36T]

Last weeks Loser award winner has upped his standards! Congratulations! You`re complete BS btw. Grow up and get a life. Freakin 12 year olds and their lies.

[Godem]

I'd steal Zelda for the 360... mmm a HD Zelda... one can only dream!

[ceedubya9]

Definitely an HD Zelda...you don't get anymore WIN than that.

[ChozenWoan]

well I'd see your zelda...
and I'd add in METROID!!!!

Now that would be Awesome.

[Halo3 MLG Pro]

Only game that I would want is Uncharted 2. I was interested in Heavy Rain at one point but after the last few gameplay videos, it went off my radar. The graphics and gameplay was mediocre at best. Killzone 2 is nothing special. God of War is cool but I can live without. Part 2 had great visuals but the gameplay was seriously lacking.

Only one game I would really like to steal and that is my Twisted Metal.

[shazui123]

Thats a pretty unique opinion there, not true at all my friend. Heavy rains gfx are AMAZING even in the recent trailers, watch the HD version. Gotta admit, I dont like the voice acting and slight slowdown but theyll probs fix that by release. Theres so many ps3 games Id want if i was a 360 only owner but ive got both. In any case Killzone 2 is something special, the best FPS there is in mine and many others opinions. GOW is amazing and until you see it you probably would say that and the gameplay for the GOW series is amazing, thats just silly and fanboyish :S anyway HR looks to be a deeper gameplay experience than I expected and since Twisted Metal has barely been confirmed yet you cant give an unreasoned and frankly untrue statement like you did and then say you want twisted metal which is completely unreasoned as youve seen none of it yet.

[Halo3 MLG Pro]

Well I did see the HD videos and they didn't look as good as that apparently fake video awhile back with that female crying. And I played and beat God of War 2 but the whole game can be beaten with the same move and weapon. The presentation was superb tho' And with Killzone 2? Well honestly I have played many war FPS's and this one just feels the same to me. I'm sorry but it just didn't stick out. The variety was lacking. The enemy was kind of boring. The game just had no personality. Plus I just didn't like the control. I haven't played it since they got the new update so I'm not sure how it plays now but just not interested.

And many sony supporters here have told me that Twisted Metal is pretty much confirmed so I'm hoping they were right. The day a Twisted Metal bundle is released is the day I buy one.

[shazui123]

the video wasnt fake that was real time and ingame which was confirmed and proved by the videos of a person playing it on the ps3 and the devs said so. So no it wasnt fake. Also Killzone 2 does have the best console gfx and a clan system that if you actually got used to the controls and played the game, you would see is really unique and awesome. MP is the best by far of any shooter ive played for so many reasons and the controls really added weight to the character for me and many others, much more immersive than it wouldbve been without. Killzone 2 is a great game youve gotta admit, very AAA.
@ below
you said "gaming career" :P
and r u srs? I see quite a marginal leap (not huge) over Gears 2 with KZ2 - http://farm4.static.flickr....
and KZ2 really does offer a lot more than that, you should try it, its pretty feature packed and keeps you playing if youve got it and a ps3, in all honesty every shooter is generic in some form, KZ2 none moreso than Gears1/2,cod4,halo 3 e.t.c Also I agree, the build before did look better, but the environments in the new trailers look a lot more technically demanding than the other trailers (LOTS of characters, environmental effects e.t.c) but it did look worse than the trailer shown before, itll probs improve as the devs work on it, we still dont know from when or which build the trailer was captured, so hold on for E3, its not long now.

[Halo3 MLG Pro]

Fair enough. I played many shooters in my gaming career and to me it played the same as most other dark war shooters. The graphics did look great but I don't see a huge leap over games like Gears 2. I think they both look the same. And I'm not saying that Killzone 2 is a bad game. I'm just saying that it takes more than just a dark shooter to impress me nowadays.

Heavy Rain at one point was supposed to blow everything out of the water graphically. Well you still think that after watching the recent gameplay videos? I sure don't.

[TenSteps]

The developers say how they are doing their best to make sure every weapon will be just as fun as the Blades, they also seem to be adding ways that require you to use certain weapons for certain parts of the game compared to the past iterations, but that's just my opinion.

[Sarevok]

You must be playing gow2 on easy to beat the game by using the same move.
BE A MAN PLAY TITAN MODE

[shazui123]

gotta be
1.GOW3
2.GT5
3.mgs4
4.UC2/1
5.Killzone 2
6.Infamous or Heavy rain or Ratchet (tie)

[nightelfmohawk]

XD

[ShabzS]

mgs 4.

[peowpeow]

10.

Even though Mass Effect 2 is coming to PS3 now, I don't consider that as stealing, just smart business on EA's part.

[mintaro]

When did Mass Effect 2 get announced for PS3?

[artgamer]

HAHAH, get a PS3 X-cunts cuz these games will NEVER, EVER come to 3shitme !!!

[shazui123]

"Even though Mass Effect 2 is coming to PS3 now, I don't consider that as stealing, just smart business on EA's part".

whaaa? whered you hear that? got a link mate?

[Raf1k1]

yeh, thats what i wana know. if not, ill just pick it up for PC when its out

[artgamer]

Lets just say I got a man on the inside feeding me lots of infos. Plus, if it were 360 PC only Microsoft would have it at their keynote which is not the case.

Also check out the latest trailer for ME2, it doesn't say jack about: "Availiable for 360 and Gamef for Windows" not one word.

Too bad I can't expose my source but its definetely coming.

[locos85]

Even though I would love to play this on my PS3, I'm still buying it for the 360. I have my character from the first game there and would like to keep using him.

[Shuya]

Well in an ideal world if there was a ps3 version they'd actually use the consoles strengths and put part 1 & 2 on 1 blu ray disk so they could carry their character over aswell.

But this is businesses after all so if it ever does go multi that won't happen. Anyways hopefully the character choices in mass effect1 will impact mass effect 2 in a significant way.

[00]

Lmao, your going to hove to do better than that before people believe you

[kewlkat007]

Created?

[Valkyre]

^^Well said mate... it seems MS is unable to create anything new.

All MS does in this industry is pay some checks so they can buy the games that others create.Seriously what exactly is MS offering in this industry?

Have they created anything new and unique?I can see Sony trying to create new IPs all the time.Wether they sell 54 millions each doesnt mean they are not good games , or that they arent investing in the future of this industry.

MS is doing what exactly? Waiting for Sony to create IPs so they can buy them in the next generation of consoles?

[OldParr]

when is E3????sorry ive been under a rock for the last three months too much work!!

[silvacrest]

microsofts conferrence is at 10:30 pacific time

[Carl1412]

If i didn't have a PS3 i think i would agree with that list pretty much exactly, with the exception of Team ICO's game being slightly higher ranked.

[kingme71]

Surprised they didn't mention MAG as a game 360 owners would want to steal since a large multiplayer shooter is right in the in 360's demographic.

[raztad]

Those guys at OXCGN know what a good game means, unlike some fanboys in this site. If I remember well they did a special article saying how much they loved KZ2.

OXCGN clearly knows that some of those games are Sony's owned IPs. Something could happen with MGS4 though. My guess is some kind of spinoff. I doubt Kojima will choose the multiplat route. Most probable one exclusive game per platform, so he can take advantages of the hardware.

[Da One]

they really aren't biased at all it seems, seems like they know a good game when they see one

[Gun_Senshi]

buy a PS3. END.

[njmzhang]

MGS will probably go multiplat. But why they put Sony first party games in that list?

[TenSteps]

Like the article says wishful thinking

[ShabzS]

just for funs sakes ... after all we're all gamers ... and 360 only console owners want to voice their opinions

[really duh]

Can't think of anything but it was nice of them to make this up for morale reasons. Maybe some people will calm down a bit.

[Why o why]

grow up.

[really duh]

I was wondering if you read most of the other comments in here? If you would just stop with your fanboy double standards for once everybody would be free to make opinionated comments. Out of all the extreme comments in here you come after me? Why are you trying to come at me in a supposed non biased way? Be a man and confront fanboyism in its entirety not just the kind you don't like. And he tells me to grow up lol.

[Why o why]

this thread was clean. You tainted it. Thats all you do. I dont track you you're just there talking kids stuff all the time. Give it a break. I respect OXCGN. They are one of the few sites that ill respect even if i dont agree with their opinions because of the way they conduct themselves. They try and build bridges and u just try and knock em down....why come in here and spoil it or add to the bs huh????....again, grow up blade or whoever you are/were

[Mr Face Creamer]

Silly droid! It's $ony not MS! I know sometimes you get confused with the one that has the better console but for the last time it's pronounced $ony, not MS.

[7thNightvolley]

GOD OF WAR 3
UNCHARTED 2
HEAVY RAIN
MAG
DIABLO 3
NEW MGS

[Socomer 1979]

That entire wish list is not gonna happen.
Strange, they always beg for games from other systems but the 360 doesnt have 1 game that we want that isnt already... happening.

This E3 is going to be so dissapointing to 360 tards. Droids lock and load were going to war again. Bring plenty of ammo these guys are ready for bed.

[36T]

Don`t matter. It wouldn't`t sell huge numbers anyway`s. The games old and most people, whether they own a PS3 or X360 have played it already. It would be stupid if a 360 port happened. Now MGS5 would be a different story. Imagine how much that would sell on multi-platforms.

Socomer, you must be young because you`re freakin stupid. "That entire wish list is not gonna happen." no sh1t sherlock! Their mostly first party titles. Maybe you can`t read, i don`t know.

Honestly, i can`t wait to find you`re name on this site in the days following E3. Prepare yourself and all you`re young stupid fanboy followers to eat crow or cry, whichever you prefer.

[-MoOkS-]

Droids are the ones desperate for great exclusives.

You all wet your pants a few days ago, when there was a rumor epic games were making a ps3 exclusive.

[-MD-]

Well dude they went like 2 years with Uncharted they are pretty game starved after all this time.

[uHuRu]

the guys over at OXCGN should just buy a PS3.

[themyk]

i like this site. it's probably one of the most unbiased sites on the web. they actually review ps3 games and sh1t. it's pretty cool. they game MGS4 a perfect score.

i like a good unbiased gamer.

[threepy]

I enjoyed reading that. It is refreshing to see an article from a largely one console-exclusive website praising games that are on other platforms. Both in magazines and on the Internet there is a lot of bickering and childishness from not only random interney users, but also from writers. It's just nice to read something different.

[Quote from Raztad] "Most probable one exclusive game per platform, so he can take advantages of the hardware."

I don't know. It's not an impossible thought but considering the fan base of MGS is largely on the Playstation (due to the exclusivity of MGS4) it would be a random move to keep swapping exclusivity from one to the other and could annoy a lot of people. I certainly wouldn't doubt MGS titles going multi-platform and your idea isn't completely impossible, but I'd class it as improbable.

[themyk]

if i could steal a few xbox 360 games they would be
1. gears of war 1 and 2. for the single player. i've played multi meh.

2. mass effect. don't know much about it but seems cool.

3. fable 2. i guess, i'm sure it's a good game. so why not.

4. crackdown and crackdown2.

5. left4dead. excellent gameplay.

i can't think of any others.

[themyk]

let me just say. i hope ms. has an awesome press conference. and i hope you guys get some awesome games. because you 360 fans are loyal and i think you deserve more than what they have offered you this year. and hey it'll push sony. i think ms is going to have some good sh1t this year. and i can't wait to watch their conference. ms. let me down last year with their conference with the lame nxe and the lips and the movies crap. even though i'm sure you guys like it, it is lame IMO. i'm sure you guys would have rather had some hardass games.

anyways GOOD LUCK.

oh and by the way i wouldn't mind if you guys got to play

MGS4. i'm not sure if it well happen but if it does then congratulations.

[36T]

Do you PS fanboys realize how sad you look? I have never seen such a defensive group of so called "gamers" in one place, as on N4G.

I would love for one of you to show some balls and explain why you get so defensive with everything PS related? IMO, if you were so proud and satisfied with you`re PS3 then why would you care what the other consoles have to offer?

This is a WISHLIST that one person wrote for games on ALL platforms they would like to have on the 360. Is it really a surprise that there are so many PS3 titles? They are the X360 direct competitor right?
The only other HD console on the market, right?

It`s funny that a system that supposably has no games get`s so much attention. The majority of you must be from the USA. That would explain a lot.

[viperman240]

Sad how it has so many PS3 exclusives, to bad it wont happen since most are 1st party.
