What exclusive games "sell" you the console?

Gears of War
Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball 2

I recently realized the only games I'd miss on Sony's platforms are the ones by Team ICO.

 

For PS3 I have more ... the next R&C game , 8 days , the next Naughty dog game , Assains Creed.

For Wii " the next smashbrothers game."

 

That´s easy

PS3: MGS4, FFXIII, DMC4, HS

Wii: None at the moment

X360: None at the moment

 

Revised after E3:
PS3 in order from most important to less important:

Because it is the only Playstation 3
Assassins Creed
MGS4
FFXIII
GT5
The new Naughty Dog game
New Ratchet & Clank game
Getaway
Lair
Resistance: Fall Of Man
Warhawk
Heavenly Sword
Whatever will become of the gorgeous "Afrika" concept shown at E3, actually this demo is what sealed the deal for me on PS3. It might not ever be a game and it has it's faults, but it's beautiful

Wii
Zelda: Twilight Princess - I'm sure the adventure won't disappoint, though might as well ger it for GC (if I owned one) as I'm not completely sold on the "wiimote" in this game. The game will be great even with standard controller.

Mario Galaxy - should be fun and innovative. The game to sell the "wiimote" to me?

xbox360
Halo 3 - The flagship xbox title, so it's an obvious choice even though I really never "got it" what's so good in Halo1 and 2. Should be a graphical showcase and a good solid athmospheric fps.

Lost Odyssey - Though virtually nothing is known about the game, this could be the game that might make me buy the xbox360. It has good staff behind it, but that doesn't yet guarantee anything, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one.

 

Oh, and PS3: Gradius VI

 

My idiosyncratic list:

Wii: Sonic Wildfire, F-Zero, SSX (assuming Wii gets an SSX). But I'm also hoping that ATI's "barely scratches the surface" remark really is true about what the E3 titles were getting out of Hollywood.

X360 Bioshock, Splinter Cell

PS3 Tales RPGs, assuming Namco doesn't put any on Wii. GT5. Anything the ICO team does.

Update: I've jumped in!

Bought my 360 last Saturday. Had already purchased Fight Night Round 3 in anticipation, and today I scored PGR3 at ShopKo (of all places) for $25.72!

Looking forward mostly to Gears of War, Mass Effect, Lost Planet, and Forza 2... and if Rare announced a next-gen Killer Instinct, well, that'd be a dream come true.

 

I'll need to do an update too. In addition to what I listed before:

xbox360
Mass Effect - Looks gorgeous, the facial animation is on a new level. The setting and story sound intriguing. I really want to like this game, but also have my fears as for some reason I never really "got" the previous Bioware games like KOTOR. They were interesting and fun in the beginning, but got very boring before I got halfway through them. I blame mostly the combat sysytem which I didn't like. Or maybe I just wasn't ready to put enough into them, like DQVIII on PS2 got rather boring around the middle, but preservance reaps rewards.

Bioshock - I know little of this game other than screenshots and some general lines, but the art and setting of tis game look novel and fascinating.

Alan Wake - Will this be the new "Silent Hill"... or rather, I hope this won't be just another Silent Hill wannabe.

xbox360 as a media center - Maybe I'm just too excited about my new 90" big screen, but I look forward transferring my photos and music to xbox360 20 Gig HDD.


PS3
Blu-ray - I just bought my 90" front projection screen and a DLP projector, can't wait to watch 720p movies on it.

PSP + PS3 interoperatibility - When do we get more information on "Location Free"?

PS3 as a media center - Maybe I'm just too excited about my new 90" big screen, but I look forward transferring my photos and music to PS3 60 Gig HDD (and still have room for downloadables ).

The new gyroscope tilt controller - Unfortunately by adding this feature, Sony just dropped Wii from my list. For me the PS3 controller offers enough of the novelty and functionality of wiimote not to warrant buying another console with similar "gimmick" ("gimmick" in a positive note and "similar" as broadly generalized).

Games... I think my previous list still stands, no additions no omissions.

.
.
I know, my list is not really in the spirit of the thread title, more a "what I look forward in the new consoles".

 

PS3: MGS, GT5, the next "ICO" game and every game that utilize CELL to add some next gen umpf
Wii: Mario Galaxy, MP, Zelda and the usual Nintendo suff

The new Naughty Dog game

Mario Galaxy.

On a side note, the new trend of Bald Metal Armor carriers Space Marines needs to end

the games that might sell me a xb360 or a ps3.

xb360

halo3
lost planet
army of two
gears

ps3

MGS4
RE5

 

I'm already sold on the PS3 just for its non-gaming uses.

But on games.

VF5!!! - Sold
MGS4
RE5 - If it's better than the 360 version
GTA4 - If it is better than the 360 version
Final Fantasy 7 - If they actually make this game they have already sold one copy.

Some PS3 games I am still on the fence about that could be good:
HS
Resistance
The Naughty Dog game
Final Fantasy XIII


Other than that there are not really that many announced games I am that sold on yet. I hope they don't just start porting over existing Xbox games like Dead Rising and Oblivion.

 

Prioritized:

360:
Rising dead
1. Mass Effect. Being a KOTOR (1+2) junkie this is easily the most anticipated game for me.
2. Halo 3
3. Forza 2
4. GOW
5. Oblivion (not really exclusive, is it ?)
6. DOA 4
7. Geometry wars
(8. Dead rising)

PS3:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Heavenly sword.
3. Virtua Fighter
