Question: How many of those will be day and date with a console release?

Question: Will Blizzard remain PC exclusive forever?

Question: How many of those will match the polish of those PS3 exclusives you dismissed earlier? GT5 = Starcraft 2 and with Diablo 3 not having a set 2009 release date I would say 2010 is a more probable year.

1) Only 3 are released on consoles: Braid, Mirror's Edge and Burnout Paradise.

2) Stupid question, Blizzard was never PC exclusive (see Mac)

3) A hole buttload will easily match the polish of PS3 games. Starcraft 2 is also a shoe-in for this year, most likely in the first semester of the year, a bit later than it's competition: Dawn of War 2, Empire: Total War, Demigod and Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor.

1. I said will not has been released on consoles. Many of the better adventure games could see a Wii release and many of the other titles I could see having a console release as well.

2. Im willing to bet that within 5 years all blizzards releases will be day and date with a console release. (barring starcraft)

3. The list is very skewed towards RTS anyway, the action games however leaves a little to be desired. In that respect it does not match the PS3 lineup.

 

 

I doubt any console has a better lineup on exclusive action games. But just like I said on the second post, I have not added all the bigger PC games, among them are 2 hyped action games:

- APB, an MMO GTA-like game that has been getting alot of attention.

- Metro 2033, a Stalker-like game, and even uses the same engine as Stalker's.

And how is the Action lineup weak?? Look at this:

Quake Live - Possibly the biggest FPS release this year.

Battlefield Heroes - a new entry to the well-known series.

Braid - Finally coming to PC.

Cryostasis - Bioshock's rival.

Mirror's Edge - Coming to PC and with a full revolution on physics.

Fallen Empire: Legions - developed by the makers of the Tribal series. A Tribal-like Shooter.

FEZ - One of the highest anticipated indie games ever. As much as Braid and maybe even Audiosurf.

Global Agenda - Hype has been surrounding this new MMOFPS.

Shattered Horizon - from the guys that made 3D Mark.

Zeno Clash - A surreal setting with a seemingly very viable Melee mechanics for a first-person game.
