Here is a very little research i did to see which console did best on its life cycle, i relied on one source which is Gamerankkings which in fact gather the average score of main sites for each game.
for the AAA titles i decided to choose the games that got over 88%, sure it' s not accurate but it' s reallly close in my opnion to the truth , after all this quota apply to all consoles so it' s kinda fair enough.
for the overall good games, i decided to choose games that got over 80%, this will include the AAA titles as well, and for this one i think it' s really fair.
by analyzing the consoles ranking and seeing which is better from which, you should consider each console on its own regardless of other consoles on market, for exemple the Xbox is the second best console from all (exceeding the original playstation) and it seem a bit srange to me but for someone who had ONLY one console and no PC, then XBOX is most probably in the second place.
so after reading this allow me to unveal the list
best consoles with AAA titles:
1) Playstation 2: AAA: 65 games
2) Xbox: AAA: 49 games
3) Gamecube: AAA: 36 games
4) Playstation: AAA: 33 games
5) Dreamcast: AAA: 22 games
6) N64: AAA: 21 games
7) Gameboy Advance: AAA: 17 games
8) DS: AAA: 5 games
9) Xbox360 so far: AAA: 6 games (included geometry wars)
10) PSP: AAA: 3 games
Best overall Goood games:
1) Playstation 2 : over 200 games (the 200th got 82.6%)
2) XBOX: over 200 games (the 200th got 80.7%)
3) Playstation: 134 games
4) Gamecube: 127 games.
5) Dreamcast: 61 games
6) n64: 60 games
7) Xbox 360: 28 games (doing great for it' s first less-than-a-year)
8) PSP: 26 games
9) DS: 23 games.
so i let you guys analyze this and share with everybody your opinions. (please read what i wrote first before criticizing) thanks.
