you can also play PC on your HDTV, but let's not get into that. We are not (atleast not me) saying 360 is crap or anything like that, If I didn't have a PC and enjoy PC games, I would've been VERY tempted to be a Xbox player because of all the 360/PC games that aren't coming out on PS3. What I don't like is people excluding PC as a viable gaming platform (that and meaning of the term exclusive) when it's the most popular platform in the world. |
The thing is that most of us aren't discounting it as a viable platform, we're just acknowledging that it is very different from console gaming. It's about as close to console gaming as a handheld device. All three play games, all three use very different interfaces to get there. Two are plug and play, one is DIY.
While you PC gamers have what is my preferred platform for several genres (FPS, RTS, MMO), games like UT3, BioShock, Gears, etc. deserve some kind of asterisk for the "exclusives" the consoles share with PC because PC gaming and console gaming are worlds apart in terms of demographics. I know loads of people that refuse to play anything but PC and vice versa, moreso than I know people who refuse to play Xbox vs. PS3 or vice versa.
