Graphics technical some combination of:

Uncharted

Mass Effect

Gears of War

Bioshock

Call of Duty 4

Artisitically:

Super Mario Galaxy

Bioshock

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

Ratchet and Clank: Future Tools of Destruction

Viva Pinata (so under-rated artistically)

Fable sold 2 million copies and Halo 2 sold 9 million. thats 4.5:1 not 10:1 for the record.

and 3rd party titles sell better on X360 then any other console this generation. so those games will grow in appreciation. Ninja Gaiden II will sell mre then one, especially with MS publishing the game.

So what if the Halo launch is huge? It doesn't mean that Halo is a good series, does it? No, because Halo is an average, very overrated series. I could understand if one review gave it a bloated score, but how can people be so deluded into thinking this is any better than games like Timesplitters 2, and Unreal Tournament? It isn't, it's just a slow paced shooter with too big a focus on multiplayer.ShmenonPie

when you posted that and read every site gave it a bloated score. Did you ever stop and think "Gee maybe I'm wrong not the millions of people who love the game"

or did you gjust skip the logic secion of your brain and hit post reply.

Not sure if anyone noticed, but multi-plats last generation all looked better on Xbox then PS2.

 And Last I checked PS2 outsold the Xbox quite handily. It's exclsuives and their graphcis that sellt he consoles, not the multi-platofrm games looking slightly better. 

Let's see. the last Capcom game on Xbox 360 was:

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition

 It sold pretty well, 329'000 copies its first month. 

Lets assume DMC 4 does half as well. That's 165'000 copies. A lot more then the 4500 boycotters, half of which won't even boycott.

 DMC 4 is on X360 and PC. End of argument. 

1. Microsoft buys out a major third party developer Bioware maybe?DaysAirlines

 I definitely see that as possible and more likely then Capcom. Bioware seems to like Microsoft a lot giving them Kotor and Jade Empire, two of the Xboxes best RPGs (kotor was the best RPG on Xbox IMO).  Then Mass Effect coming. It seems likely that MS will buy them out.

for an exclusive title, the Wii. No competition for a spot ont he release calendar pretty much.

otherwise I'd make a multi-plat PS3/360.  

Playstation 3 - Cost and the lack of big games

 Wii - availability

PSP - Games worth playing, cost.
