But there games aren't as good :P
Oh and I shouldn't have really included Code Veronica X on that list.
Hedfix gets the prize for biggest munter on this thread anyway. Another thing this forum is always filled up with is moaning about how the regular public don't appreciate decent games, and only mainstream cack sells. So how do you conclude that looking at the top 10 PS2 chart will show you what the decent 'exclusives' are?
There are planty of fantastic PS2 exclusives that sold very little and as a result are constantly overlooked by the so-called 'ambassadors of good gameplay' who praise nintendo for their innovative games. I'd say that makes such people exactly as bad as the mainstream they like to criticise.
One of my most anticipated games of the last year comes out at the end of March, Way of the Samurai 2, it's a PS2 exclusive and absolutely nobody on this forum has ever mentioned it.

Yes, how could anyone think such a thing? ;-)
Anyway, what the hell is that?
I thought it was multi-format.
Whenever I see a PS2 top 10 sales chart, the vast majority of the games are multiformat, usually with just one or two exclusives.
There always seem to be less multiformat titles in the Xbox and Cube top 10s. I think that has to say something.
In terms of quality exclusives the Cube simply can not be beaten.
Looking over it the PS2 probably does have more exclusives for now but over time they are slowly ported onto other platforms. I sitll believe though that the Xbox has fewere exclusive titles than the Cube.
Hedfix, how can you call:
SOCOM 2
Nightshade
Ghost Recon Jungle Storm
Forbidden Siren
Cy Girls
Hack - Infection
R Type - Final
shi%e?
Take the fanboy hat off for christs sake....
Oh, they don't mean exclusives they mean sh**e.
I don't know why you can't all just appreciate the Gamecube without feeling the need to 'demean' the other consoles at the same time, it's totally pointless and it infuriates me!

Yeah but look at the release list... Nintendo have what... 5 exclusive games on the Gamecube this Easter... and one or two of them could potentially reach the top spot....
No matter how many titles are on the PS2 or X-box.
