Like what? I'm all ears.

Also, PC is a different matter since their "generations" are really fuzzy. When we talk about generations, we usually refer to console generations. And think about this... If Windows have so many more exclusives than Sony and Nintndo combined, why even start Xbox in the first place? Would've saved MS a LOT of money and MS would've made a lot more profit.

From last year as an example...  As for why did they start Xbox well they wanted to hedge their bets.

That is indeed a lot of PC exclusives, but some of those games are on PS4 like Warframe and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture. Also, Everquest is made by SOE, so I won't be surprised seeing it on the PS4, too. A bunch of these games are small games or mediocre MMO's. I hardly recognize most of these games not because I don't play PC (in which I do), but because they're not that good. These aren't the kinds of games that have replay value or a lasting appeal. I played Neverwinter, for instance, but I wasn't impressed with its apparent lack of polish. The Hunter Ranger class is really broken with the spreadshot + chargeshot combination. While it's entertaining at first, the balance is horrible.

Edit: It seems that you Googled for a list and just copy & pasted it here without doing some research on the games.

For every game on that list that became multiplatform there are likely 5 or 10 or more  (indie or other) PC exclusives that didn't make the list.
