I understand Your definition of Console Exclusive, however it can not co-exsist in a world where software is measured in Exclusive/Multiplatform. To use semantics and claim that Exclusive/Multiplatform is measured between consoles only, is wrong. It's like you're trying to redefine Math, something absolute. But 1+1 will alwasy be 2.

Yeah... read what I have been saying the last few posts. There are two terms here. Multiplatform, and Console...1.do you understand the diferance between a console and a platform? The term "platform" encompasses Consoles and PCs. Wheras the term "console" can only be used to describe a console. Now pay attention cuz this is the tricky part. 2.A Console Exclusive can only be used to describe a game that can be played on one console, and not another, A Multiplat is a game that can be played on several Platforms. I think that is what you are missing here.

1. No i do not. Since a console is also a platform, how can it be a difference? Its just semantics and you try to benefit off of it. 2. And yes that is correct, a console exclusive can only be playable on one console. 

 

I understand Your definition of Console exclusive being that we have two consoles, where Wii, PS3 and 360 exsists, of which only one can play a certain game. But since PC is a viable platform, the english language, dictionary, game developers and Sony disagrees with you, and probably MS and Nintendo aswell. Along with each and everybody on this forum that aren't to close minded to see beyond console prefrences.

The PC may be a viable platfrom, but as long as the term "Consle Exclusive" exists, and as long as people have discussions about "Console Exclusives" my point still stands. Side note, the dictionary agrees with me. I defy you to prove me wrong, because so far, the only thing you have been able to say is "you are wrong" without any proof. Now, since the dictionary agrees with me, 1.Game devs and Sony (which kinda shows me your alliance and why you seem so hell bent on proving that I am wrong) are wrong...If they truly believe 2.that there is no differance between "Console Exclusive" and "Multiplat"

1. How so? I was refering to Jack Trettons FF14 announcement, where he said "PS3 is the only console you'll be able to play FF14 on". Didn't claim it was a console exclusive. He said it was a PS3 Console Only game. But enlighten me, why would that show why im bent on proving you wrong?
2. They believe there IS a difference, so they're right? Console exclusive can only be played on a single console. Like Halo. Multiplatform is across all viable platforms, hence the word multiplatform.

And evertime Exclusive is mentioned on this forum, its usually Exclusive. The times Console Exclusive is mentioned, it's usually when 360 fanatics try to fight their console wars with list of games in a futile way to try and boost their console and make themselves feel all fuzzy and warm inside.

As I said, that may be true, but they are right. And you can do nothing against them because they are, I bet that just frustrates the hell outta you, 1.knowing that your arch enemies are right. Which is why you seek to circumvent the dictionary and creat 2.your own definition of Multiplat .

1. Why would they be my arch enemies?
2. Recap my definition of multiplat for me please. My definition is software playable on multiple platforms, what's yours? And what are your impressions of what mine is?


But since we've established what a platform is, there's really no way around it when defining what a Multiplatform software is, and what a Exclusive software isn't. So it reallt is /thread.

You keep saying end thread, this thread will not end until you admit I am right! It cannot end because you will then continue on 1.your misinformed vendetta against all things MS. Now, conversly, I really don't care Which games are multiplat because A. I don't plan to play any games on the PC. and B. It could be said that PS3 fanboys are angry about the amount of "Console Exclusives" the 360 has and therefore are trying to redefine the term "Multiplatform" to encumpas the term "Console Exclusive" And that is actually where the misdirection comes into play. So in reality, it is those that seek to envelope "Console Exclusive" with "Multiplat" who are at fault here.

Anyway, We have established what a platform is, but we have also established what the diferance between "console Exclusive" and Multiplatform" is. And since most conversations here take place under the "Console Exclusive" term, The OP is incorrect. (because this is his own personal vendetta against those who speak of "Console Exclusives" instead of "Multiplat", However the OP IS correct when pertaining to "Multiplatform Exclusives" This is a destinction you have failed time and time again to grasp.

1. Why would i have anything against MS? What have i said, anywhere, that can be interpret as something against MS? Why would i be on my PC with updated WIN7 if I had anything against MS? This should be interesting.


But if you want to go on, please answer my post about 13 posts back.

Refresh my memory, I'm sure I already answered it in one of my posts and I am not going to bother looking back. If you feel it has not been answered, ask the question again...although I'm sure it is misconstruing the diferance between the two terms mentioned time and time again.

Im not going to bother. I've tried and tried again. But its a mission impossible. Converting fanatics usually are.

 

BTW, I just realized something, I have been saying "Multiplat Exclusive" this entire time, which is not possible, so if that was what was screwing you up, I appologise. (I gotta get more sleep)
