Examiner: Because the Xbox 360 shares so many "exclusive" games with the PC, it dampens the system's selection of killer apps. Even so, Microsoft's second video game system has plenty of system-selling software.

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
Halo on its own kills anything ps3 has in game-play and in SALES.
The only real system seller for the 360 is Halo 3. That's it. Like somerandomdude posted in another story:
"I have a theory every 360 owner owns their 360 for the sake of playing Halo. Not even MS's other exclusive even come close in sales.
To put it in perspective
Halo 3 first week sales = 3,815,444 (this is a top seller)
360's 2nd highest selling exclusive is Gears of War @ 910,931 in a week (nearly 3 million less than Halo 3)
Gears of War will end up behind U2's first week sales if they do end up at the 1 million mark
The 360's 3rd highest selling exclusive is Forza 2 at 351,311 in it's first week (U2's first day sales on one continent are competing with that tittle)"
That says it all.
This is the second similar story in a day. Looks like we will begin seeing an upswing in such media as websites move to help prop up Microsoft. What's next? oh, I know. The PS3 is doomed...again. No, really this time it is.
Forza 3? Killer app?
Fable 2? Killer app?
Crackdown? Killer app?
Can someone define "killer app" for me?
Fable II is an amazing game =)
Gears of War is also an enjoyable franchise, but Fable II stole my heart, as much as LittleBigPlanet did..
Damn, 2008 had some really awesome games.. was a better year than this year
