The video game industry has a level of inherent competition built into it. Even though there are many titles that get multi-platform releases, one of the biggest ways in which consoles can stand out from their competition is through console exclusives<\/a> that can\u2019t be found anywhere else.<\/p>\n

The PlayStation 4<\/a> and the Xbox One<\/a> have a number of fundamental differences, but they\u2019re familiar similar when it comes to their hardware power. Sony and Microsoft\u00a0have entered the next generation of gaming where console exclusives might prove to be even more important, but the previous era\u00a0also resulted in some excellent exclusives for both consoles.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>PS4: Astro Bot: Rescue Mission (Score: 90)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

PlayStation\u2019s adorable Astro Bot mascot has become increasingly popular in the past few years, with the PlayStation 5\u2019s Astro\u2019s Playroom <\/em>being\u00a0<\/em>one of the biggest surprises of the next-gen console. Astro Bot: Rescue Mission <\/em>is a PlayStation 4 title that depends on VR capabilities<\/a> and it\u2019s easily the best example of what this immersive technology can achieve.<\/p>\n

The game is a simple platformer, but it makes beautiful use of VR technology and is like nothing else on the console. It\u2019s the one PlayStation 4 VR title that deserves to be played by anyone who\u2019s skeptical of virtual reality.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Xbox One: Halo 5: Guardians (Score: 84)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The original Halo<\/em><\/a> is largely responsible for making Microsoft\u2019s first foray into the console market a success. Halo <\/em>has practically become synonymous with the Xbox and the amount of titles in the series has hit the double digits over the years.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0return to form for the series,\u00a0Halo 5: Guardians\u00a0<\/em>is\u00a0an entry worthy of the Xbox One\u2019s hardware. While the Xbox Series X\u2019s upcoming Halo Infinite<\/em>\u00a0has been\u00a0<\/em>delayed to 2021,\u00a0fans can still turn to\u00a0Halo 5: Guardians\u00a0<\/em>for a\u00a0very satisfying FPS experience.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>PS4: Shadow Of The Colossus (Score: 91)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Some video games are just so iconic and groundbreaking that new versions of them are turned out every generation in order to take advantage of the advancements in technology. The ambitious Shadow of the Colossus<\/a><\/em> was initially released on the PlayStation 2 before being upgraded for the PS3 and then receiving another massive update years later for the PlayStation 4.<\/p>\n

RELATED: Xbox: 10 Best Exclusive Franchises, Ranked (According To Metacritic)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The PS4’s Shadow of the Colossus <\/em>captures the artistry of the original with more detail than ever before. It’s a fitting tribute to the PS2 title.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Xbox One: Gears 5 (Score: 84)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Gears of War <\/em>franchise is another property that\u2019s been around\u00a0for a while and is one of the pillars of the Xbox brand. Even though Microsoft has branched into also catering towards the PC market with the last few releases, Gears <\/em>remains a console exclusive for the Xbox and one of\u00a0its best.<\/p>\n

Gears 5 <\/a><\/em>is an action-packed follow-up<\/a> that course corrects a lot from Gears of War 4. <\/em>The shift in perspective that the game takes works in its favor and Kait Diaz proves to be a magnetic hero. Chaotic alien locust annihilation has never been more fun.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>PS4: Bloodborne (Score: 92)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The high fidelity and frame rate that video games now operate at has given audiences a higher capacity for punishingly difficult games that require precision timing and gameplay mechanics. The Dark Souls <\/em>games have become some of the best and most grueling examples of these styles of games.<\/p>\n

Bloodborne <\/em>is reminiscent<\/a>\u00a0of the core Dark Souls <\/em>series, <\/em>but it provides an even more satisfying and exaggerated take on this dangerous world. It\u2019s a title that\u2019s guaranteed to challenge gamers well into the next generation.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Xbox One: Forza Motorsport 7 (Score: 86)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Xbox One has a number of exceptional racing titles for fans of the genre. For\u00a0people\u00a0torn on which Forza<\/em> entry to try out, Motorsport 7<\/em> should be the priority for those that prefer realistic racing physics and environments than the more arcade-style setup\u00a0of\u00a0Forza Horizon 4<\/em>.<\/p>\n

RELATED: 5 PS4 Exclusives That May Get A Sequel (& 5 That Probably Won’t)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Forza Motorsport 7<\/a><\/em> is one of the most detailed and comprehensive racing games of all time and it’s going to be extremely difficult to top whenever the next entry comes around. The game has also gradually revised and improved itself since its initial release.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>PS4: Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End (Score: 93)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Any series that runs for many titles that are spread across multiple generations runs the risk of diluting a property or hitting diminishing returns. It\u2019s for this reason that Uncharted 4: A Thief\u2019s End <\/em>deserves so much credit for ending Nathan Drake\u2019s story on a satisfying and fitting note<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A Thief\u2019s End <\/em>is a love letter to the whole franchise and it\u2019s incredible to see just how epic these games have become since their debut on the PlayStation 3. Uncharted 4: A Thief\u2019s End <\/em>is how to go out on top and with class.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Xbox One: Killer Instinct: Definitive Edition (Score: 86)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Rare\u2019s Killer Instinct <\/em>fighting series started as an arcade title before it migrated over to the Super Nintendo, but it\u2019s been doing excellent work on the Xbox for the past generation. Other fighting franchises like Mortal Kombat <\/em>or Street Fighter <\/em>get more attention, but Rare, Double Helix Games, and later Iron Galaxy managed to create something special with their reinvention of the Killer Instinct <\/em>franchise.<\/p>\n

Killer Instinct: Definitive Edition <\/em>packs together all of the content that\u2019s been released over the years and it\u2019s an entertaining alternative to the more mainstream fighters. Killer Instinct <\/a><\/em>is in hibernation<\/a>,<\/em> but the Xbox Series X would benefit from more Killer Instinct <\/em>mayhem.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>PS4: God Of War (Score: 95)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

It\u2019s encouraging to see how many of the PlayStation 4\u2019s most celebrated exclusive titles are properties that have been on PlayStation consoles for years. Kratos has become an unofficial mascot for Sony and all of the God of War <\/em>titles from the past generations seriously helped move hardware.<\/p>\n

2018\u2019s God of War<\/em><\/a> is one of the more successful examples of a reboot that improves upon the themes of the original. The gigantic game rises to the occasion and partners Kratos with his son, Atreus, a development that works\u00a0out brilliantly for the series.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Xbox One: Forza Horizon 4 (Score: 92)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Forza<\/em> series has become a mainstay for Xbox consoles and the different racing franchises have become so acclaimed that they’re some of the best titles on Xbox consoles. Forza Horizon 4<\/a><\/em> is packed with an absurd amount of content.<\/p>\n

The game prides itself on its ultra-realistic atmosphere, which\u00a0includes dynamic seasons.\u00a0Forza Horizon 4 <\/em>has over 450 cars and so much customization available that most people will never make their way through all of the content that the game has to offer.<\/p>\n
