Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

You get the point, I can name more, but I don't want to crush the Xbox. The Xbox just doesn't have great exclusive games anymore. Well new ones anyway.
I don't know... I haven't really heard fantastic things about many of those games other than LBP. MGS was downright unlikeable to anyone who wasn't a diehard fan, from what I hear, while most of the rest were just "ok". I don't play many PS3 games, though, so I could be wrong about some of them. I'm also influenced by the fact that if a ($60) game has a campaign less than 10 hours long it falls off my radar completely.
Anyways, I'm not actually saying Xbox is better than PS3, I just think it's interesting to look at the "exclusive" titles that are coming out... it seems like many of the best games these days are multiplatform (e.g. Batman, Red Dead Redemption); I think we might be moving past the point where you really have to put too much thought into the game selection on the system you choose. In all likelihood the games you want will be on either one. Not to mention, I put exclusive in quotes because even titles that are announced for only one platform seem to end up on the other one six months later. "Exclusive" has kind of turned into "exclusivity period".
Personally the difference comes down to this now: Xbox 360 has XBL, and the PS3 is a better piece of hardware (I'm not sure MS would even bother arguing that to be honest). Even though I no longer play online often, I've gotten so used to the XBL's other features that I could hardly give it up if pressed.
More on topic, though: The idea that anyone thinks that all users of anything have to be fanboys of it really amuses me. It completely ignores the fact that "fanboy" is an almost completely derogatory term for someone who is close-minded and loud-mouthed.
