Don't know why you're getting huffy. One of my explanations was multiple console owners simply buying the game out of convenience of the console they play the most. Secondly, these games usually existed to sell consoles. A person who doesn't have to buy the console just buys it on the system they own. It's not sony fans not buying the games, it's people who COULD be buying the games on a sony platform buying them on something else INSTEAD.
It also affects hype. A game that is exclusive tends to get more hype. It's not the gamer punishing devs, they're just not getting as hyped and blitzed by media. Media loves exclusives, not multiplats, and best-friend gamers talk aboute xclusives too.
