I'm amazed by the people who are requesting that PC/360 multi-platform titles should be counted. A game being exclusive means that you must purchase the system to enjoy the game. I did not have to use a 360 to play Gears of War, Bioshock and Mass Effect. Multi-platform games are not exclusive games! I don't own a 360 and few of my friends do yet I get to enjoy the vast majority of its offerings, the PC has effectively eliminated my need for the 360.

An arcade machine negates the need to call BlazBlue and Time Crisis 4 PS3 exclusives, but that doesn't make an arcade cabinet a console. I understand your point, but know that it isn't a matter of "PCs not counting" or "Microsoft owns Windows". It's a matter of doing a proper comparison between two consoles, or adding in a third entrant(PC). A comparison doesn't need to conform to outside stipulations even if they reflect the real world better. If it's a 360 vs. PS3 comparison, then compare them against eachother. If it's a 360 vs. PS3 vs. PC comparison, then compare all of them against eachother. This is how comparisons work all day long.

 

If a list of PC exclusives would need to be included to remove multi-platform titles from the list of exclusive games then I think that would be the most sensible course of action. For people who own multiple gaming systems looking for a list of exclusive content (myself included) a list of games that are truly exclusive is more useful and informative. I guess this is up to the OP though.
