Another example we all know is Halo, which is M rated. Best selling x-box game of all time. the argument that (young) people can't or do not want to play war games is simply unfounded.

So you have one PS3 exclusive as your example ... a cross platform game ... and an Xbox exclusive.

So far im not seeing how Sony has an edge on the M rated titles here. I am more so seeing that they have more to lose because games like Halo and GTA would then by default ONLY be on the Xbox ...

Even Gears isnt going to make the system a smash hit, its no where near as big a title as GTA or COD.
