Help with exclusives. (360/PS3)

[MStrauss]

I bought a wii at launch and recently my father got a PS3 for the blue ray player, also, at the same week I got a free RRoD Xbox360 from my gf (she bought another one) that my friend managed to fix(apparently) by adding better cooling.
So now I got my hands on the last 2 consoles I was missing and need some help choosing exclusive games, any MUST HAVE suggestions? just keep some things in mind please:

-Exclusives for each Consoles and Console exclusives only, Im a hardcore pc gamer.
-FPSs or games with aiming only if its a godsent exclusive.
-Not asking for wii games cus if you can name it my gf will have played it.
-I really hate sport games(except for racing) and already have a bunch of party games on the wii.
-Split screen/same screen multiplayers would be awesome.

Ps3 games I have: MGS4, Heavenly Sword, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, MotorStorm, Virtua Fighter 5.
Xbox360 games: My gf has a bunch of jrpgs, Soul Calibre 4 and gh/rbands and I just bought Ace Combat 5.
Hot release tips for the end of this year are also welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is a good game for PS3, and you never truely appreciate its beauty until you turn on the "Next-Gen Filter" easter egg on.

 

[The Potato Lord]

Crackdown for the 360 is a good one.
Can't think of any more at the moment.

PS3:
Uncharted - Awesome platforming/action
Everyday shooter - It's a PC too, but it's better on console IMO, it's similar to geometry wars.
Disgaea 3 - Hilarious SRPG
Ratchet & Clank - Look at Uncharted
LittleBigPlanet - Comes out late Oct. Look up on it (Has local multiplayer as far as I know)
Resistance 2 - Mid-november, look up on it, 8-player co-op 60 player online (it has local multiplayer, well Resistance one did)

Xbox360:
Castle Crashers - Sidescrolling awesomeness
Braid - Awesome, that is all.
Tales of Vesperia - Excellent JRPG
Guilty Gear 2 - Oct 7th, the only fighter I enjoy (Other than street fighter, of course)
Geometry Wars
Eternal Sonata - Excellent JRPG, coming out for PS3 in Oct, but it'll be cheaper on 360 so I suggest you get it for that.

Both:
Megaman 9 (if you haven't gotten it on the Wii) >.>

I'll edit the list as I think of more.

 

[Ultrajoe]

Get Fable 2, and Gears 2.

I am a PS3 owner but man do i wish i had the 360 right now. Also, loom out for FF13 soon and Resistance 2.

We're not out of the game yet!

 

[Spartan Bannana]

Halo 3 is good for same screen action

 

[MStrauss]

Guess ill have to get Uncharted, thanks PersianLlama and Jumplion. Ratchet & Clank also looks like something I'lld replay a lot.
Thanks for the replies, making a list to rent/borrow.
And Ultrajoe you just gave me another reason to hug my gf, I didnt know either of those games were going to be exclusives (damn you ms).

I also love guilty gear, got xx core on the wii, 2d fighting games are the best

 

[Graustein]

N+ for XBLA. there is no way you'll be disappointed.

That's hardly an exclusive, but I agree wholeheartedly

PS3:

Eternal Sonata - Excellent JRPG, coming out for PS3 in Oct, but it'll be cheaper on 360 so I suggest you get it for that.

You mean Tri-Ace and Namco's actually NOT gonna give the American 360 owners the middle finger and keep that version in Japan, rather rub it in their faces saying "Look at the PS3 version - WE gave THEM two extra playable characters cause Namco Bandai likes Sony!"
(If you don't know Namco-bandai favours Sony and Japan, all you gotta do is just look at the list of Tales of Games that were never released outside of Japan, never made it to PAL regions, or received sony ports with extras.)

 

[Conqueror Kenny]

Get Fable 2, and Gears 2.

Definitely get these Both have split screen, and are looking unbelievably sexy at the moment.

 

[Geo Da Sponge]

Halo 3 is good for same screen action

Seconded, certainly because of the splitscreen. You can play through the campaign with four people, although you can only have two on any one console. If you have any friends with Xbox's, though, it can mkae it really good fun as you work as a full team. You can four way split screen online in the social playlists, which is also good.

Meh I was just looking at it from a money-wise point of view, I completely forgot about the extras

 

[ElArabDeMagnifico]

OMG WARHAWK! WARHAWK WARHAWK WARHAWK! OH! Wipeout HD is also awesome!

OK fanboy explosion out the way, Valkyria Chronicles is coming for PS3 soon, and it's looking amazing.

Uncharted is an excellent Rent and if you're a completionist than a great buy.

Check PSN and XBLA - lots of Gems on there.

 

[Jumplion]

Ah yes, don't forget PSN.

The Last Guy is very quirky and fun, I wrote a review here a while ago I strongly recomend you get it if you want something new and refreshing.
SuperStardustHD is also a good game to start your trophy collection as well as an addicting game.

And definately Warhawk, it's an extremely balanced game if at times slowly paced and it almost NEVER lags. EVER! Seriously, I have a crappy connection of 35-45% and I rarely experienced any lag whatsoever.

 

[Baby Tea]

Since everything I would have mentioned has already been mentioned, I will mention Forza 2 as a great racing game (For me, anyways) for the 360. And it's really cheap right now!

 

[TheBadass]

Uncharted, Motorstorm, Resistance and LittleBigPlanet are all great games (although you might be better off waiting for the sequels to the middle ones there.)

PSN wise, I'm throwin' in a vote for Super Stardust HD. Addictive as hell, like an improved Geometry Wars.

Xbox360 games: My gf has a bunch of jrpgs

On the 360? She couldn't possibly have a "bunch" a "bunch" simply do not exist for the console.

Why the search for exclusives? Know that you are officially white enough to not have to pick and choose, you see game you like, you pick it up. You own it for the PS you don't need to get it on the Xbox or the PC, they're all the same.

And now that you own all the consoles, you should let go of the PC gaming fanboy attitude otherwise every game you pick up will just be "if this were on the PC it would be sooooo much better because" which begs the question "then why did you buy it in the first place?

 

[jamn455]

Lost Odyssey is a good RPG if those are games you are looking for on the 360, its quite long and its a traditional RPG.

I buy console games simply because they aren't on PC, though there are a rare few I think wouldn't be better with the mouse/keyboard.
