Stop Denying; You Know You Want These Four Xbox 360 Exclusives



It only does everything claims Sony, speaking of the PS3. The system can handle Blu-Ray movies, holds up to 50GB, is more powerful than any other box on the market today, and renders in beautiful 1080p, not to mention complete stereoscopic 3D. Most importantly, however, the console is home to more blockbuster exclusive titles than the Xbox 360 and Wii combined. That’s big.
So don’t be surprised if you’re Xbox 360 owner and witness, on a constant basis, your PS3 owning friends talking up their system of choice to the heavens – because they will. As if to say, “my console’s better than yours”, you’ll hear them chat incessantly about upcoming games like Killzone 3, the yet unannounced Uncharted 3, Sucker Punch’s inFamous 2, PD’s Gran Turismo 5, MM’s LittleBigPlanet 2 and SCEJ’s The Last Guardian amongst others.
They will. And although in all honesty the Xbox 360′s arsenal’s not as vast as that of the PS3, there are a few award-winning, bestselling titles that only can be found on said console that PS3 loyalists want terribly. They want them so bad it’s gotten to a point that anytime those games are mentioned, negativity jumps out of them.
It’s like a girl who wants a guy but the only way she knows to show it is by acting like she hate his guts; when on the inside, she’s burning with love. So too, are the PS3 owners whenever these four games are mentioned.
Splinter Cell: Conviction:
When Conviction was under development, rumors ran rampant, claiming Tom Clancy’s latest stealth action game would also be available on the PS3. That, however, didn’t happen. The game’s one of the best in its genre and currently holds an 85 out of 100 on Metacritic. It’s also a game you’ll enjoy playing over and over again.
Alan Wake
It’s one of the most amazing releases of this generation, and there’s already rumors of a sequel coming. Alan Wake, developed by Remedy Entertainment, is a game that can truly stand on its own. With a unique and intriguing story that turns a writer’s work into real life occurrences, the game is essentially the reason I bought an Xbox 360.
Halo: Reach
Nothing on Xbox is as popular as the Halo franchise, and the latest installment, Halo: Reach, is nothing to scoff at. It’s become the top selling game of 2010 on any platform, outdoing even multiplatform games like Red Dead Redemption.
It’s great fun, too. On any given day, millions will be enjoying the game’s online multiplayer component, or creating their own stages in the revamped forge mode.
Bungie decided it was going out with a bang, and released one of the best Halo games ever forged.
Gears of War 3
You always save the best for last. And I personally know PS3 owners who’d kiss dirt to have to game on Sony’s black box.
Gears of War.
It’s the biggest and baddest TPS ever created. There. I said it. Gears of War, a franchise from Epic Games is epic in every sense of the word. From the game’s stages, level design, character design, weapons, weapons system, story and everything else that makes a game great, can be found in the Gears of War franchise.
The third installment’s looking to be the best ever released, and judging by footage released already, it will be.
But PS3 owners who own just the PS3 won’t tell you all this. They’ll say, “nah, I don’t want those games, there’s already too much available on the PS3.” But watch your friends closely whenever they come over to your house, and you’ll see they’re only denying because they can’t have them on their system.
Buy an Xbox 360, then.

Great one by Games Thirst.
