Exclusive - adjective - single or sole

 

Too true.  I know many think its pedantic, and console only gamers think that the true test of exclusive is 'console exclusive' but I think a game is either truly exclusive or not.  If its on 360/PC then sure this hurts PS3 (which is the point for many posters) but it still means I don't need a 360 to play it.  I have another choice open to me, one that reduces by one the sales of 360 consoles.

A true exclusive should require you to need that platform to play the game.  Currently if you want Halo 3 and Gears 2 you need a 360.  If you want to play MGS IV or Uncharted you need a PS3.  Those are exclusives (I admit that past form indicates Gears 2 and Halo 3 might show up on PC eventually, but I think MS might delay this a great deal this time around).

Mass Effect and Last Remnant are not true exclusives as I simply have to buy them and install them on my PC to play them as opposed to buying them for 360.

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
