Luckily, you didn't list all the great multiplats that are also hitting the PC very soon, which even out that list with several more genres of games, some even Japanese oriented. Overall, the list is relatively good, and things are looking bright for the PC this year. The games I'm looking for here are A Vampyre Story, WotLK, and SPORE. The Witcher ultimate edition would also be a purchase for me, had I a PC to run it. Nice post Shio. |
Every platform has their strong and weak genres. In PCs case, there are 5 highly prominent genres:
Adventure
RPG
Shooter
Simulation
Strategy
While there are still a few more genres better represented on PC any other platform:
Puzzle/Parlor
Racing
Sports
So the exclusive games revolve around those genres. That's why you'll never see an exclusive Action-Adventure or a Fighting game (or other console-centric genre) on PC.

There are 4 Shooters (5, if you include Zeno Clash as such) in the list, and I didn't mention a few more that could've made the list, like Fallen Empire: Legions (spiritual successor of Tribes 2).
