Consoles would not exist if they were wannabee PCs, otherwise there would only only be PCs. *facepalm*

where are the 2 most sold ps3 game in this comparsion? *trollface*

My old calculator plays games. Calculator is a console.

My piece of paper plays noughts and crosses. Piece of paper is a console.

See my point? I mean, given the whole brouhaha with AppStore games and whatnot recently, surely you've already heard of the distinction between "dedicated" handhelds and phones that play games. Same logic applies here; console implies "dedicated".

Actually, to be honest, I'd say that PS3 and 360 are just glorified DVD players, but then that isn't politically correct. And these definitions are mostly dependant on what people are willing to agree they are.

i dont get it :O
in matter fact i meant Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops but i forgot that they were also on the Wii available

Yes, but the thread conveniently bends the rules of "EXCLUSIVE" . No shame, no shame at all

By definition, a consoles is a computer, so your second example is invalid. 

I can accept that your calculator is a console BUT unless it can play the same games as the PS3 or 360, it's irrelavent in the context of comparing exclusives. It doesn't really matter if a device is a console or not. For all practical purposes, the only thing that matters is if there is any device in the world ( ideally with a considerable install base) that can fully play the same game as another console, then that game is not exclusive. 

Fine. I amend my first statement to "PC isn't a dedicated console."  Not sure why it matters so much, though. This is really just an argument on semantics. My point was clear, I'm quite sure, :P.

And, Jay, you really made my point for me there. If you'll notice the post you quoted, I was pretty much arguing that multiplats with 360 should not be counted as "exclusives" for the PS3 and the point that we're on right now is pretty much just what most people use as justification to count more 360 exclusives, not so much what I think. I couldn't care less if the PC is actually considered a console.

If we're going by any device that can play the same game being included, then that kills the comparison in this thread, does it not?

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be another copycat thread or a serious response... But I doubt the later. :P

I am impressed with MGS 4's numbers. I remember it was last year or the year before that it reached 5 million, it legged itself to 5.6+ million, impressive. Hope it reaches 6.

Nintendo just published the game in Japan. Same for Olympic Winter Games.
