To those who still think that the PS3 is sub-par as a gaming platform

Joystiq has done some data diving through Metacritic and come up with some interesting results.

They looked only at games that scored 85% or better on MetaCritic and this is what they found:

October was the most crowded month for quality titles with 12 released, followed by November (8), September (7) and April (6).
Breaking it down by console, PlayStation 3 has the most presence on the list with 22 titles, followed by Xbox 360 (20), PC (15), Nintendo Wii (8), DS (7), PSP (2) and PS2 (1).
The best-reviewed game this year? April's Grand Theft Auto IV (98%), followed by a three-way tie between LittleBigPlanet, BioShock and World of Goo (95%) -- all three of which were released in October. Metal Gear Solid 4 and Wrath of the Lich King are the next tier below at 94%.
Of the 55 titles listed, 13 (or approximately 24%) were not based on an existing franchise: Sins of a Solar Empire, Patapon, Professor Layton and the Curious Village, Braid, The World Ends with You, Boom Blox, World of Goo, GRID, Pure, LittleBigPlanet, Dead Space and Valkyria Chronicles.

I did some digging:

Another fun fact: Xbox had 6 exclusives on the list (4 of which were XBLA), PS3 had 6 exclusives on the list (1 was PSN), Wii had 5 (3 Wii Ware)

P.S: I still find it ridiculous that WipEout HD, imo one of the top tier games of 2008, only got 87 at Metacritic but that will have to do...
