The gaming market, as with any other industry, is a strongly competitive area. High profile consoles and producers are continually battling to promote their goods and propel their products in front of their rivals. One way to slip ahead in this respect is by securing exclusive products which arenot available on other consoles. These games are regularly so famous that in some extraordinary cases gamers may purchase a console simply to access a particular title. Some Playstation 3 exclusives have just that power.

It is correct to assert that Playstation 3 exclusives have suffered a bit recent ly. Their competitors, Microsoft's Xbox 360, have grabbed one or two Playstation exclusives from Sony and earned the legal right to develop them on their own console aswell. The famous case here is Final Fantasy XIII, which both thrilled Xbox fans but seriously annoyed Playstation owners. More have passed before aswell, including Tekken 6 and Tomb Raider Underworld to cite a small example.

However, PS game players shouldn't be too disappointed, they've still got a number of excellent Playstation 3 exclusives to try. Little Big Planet, notwithstanding being released ages ago, remains a massive success and continues to win custom via PS Store add-ons. The Ratchet and Clank franchise remains a much sought after exclusive too, together with Uncharted, which is lauded as one of the best new franchises in recent gaming.

Anticipation is also building for a range of upcoming Playstation 3 Exclusives aswell. Heavy Rain, the innovative new 'interactive movie' is exclusive to this console, alongwith lauded RPG White Knight Chronicles. And naturally, who could forget the hard hitter himself- Kratos. Indeed, God of War 3 returns to our consoles soon- exclusively on Playstation 3.

Lots to get excited about then. Sonystill retains a number of excellent exclusives, and the Playstation 3 remains potentially the most impressive and technically proficient next gen console. Playstation 3 Exclusives are used to boast the genius and power of the console itself- and no-one can disagree with the display of mastery.
