Had those ported games not been there. Then the games that remained would probably pick up more sales in their absence. Besides if a game like Fable really motivated any buyer out there. They would have overwhelmingly chosen the console which was cheaper. Then the alternative of a dedicated gaming PC. Seriously how many times do we have to go through this before it sinks in. The 360 selling more games isn't any kind of pox upon your house. The second place console selling more software then the third place console is just a given, and the fact that the second place console had a years head start only amplifies the disparity. |
I don't remember the argument ever getting resolved. We had a rule for a while to specify if you meant "console exclusive" (to include PC ports) and to only use "exclusive" in the literal sense.
Also, you logic makes no sense. I started the gen with a gaming capable PC (not a very good PC) and never bought a 360 because of this. I'm sure there are many others where this is also true. Not everyone wants a games console when they can use their own PC/laptop to play certain games.
