| vivster said: Examples that show consumer friendliness do not declare everything else as bad. There are certain PC configurations that only run specific and exclusive games. They're called consoles. OR does have its own API(software) which is why OR games have to be modified to run on other devices. Their store is their platform. Windows is not an open platform and neither is Steam. PC alone has so many different platforms that it's ridiculous to call it open. Ubisoft games won't run without uplay. All games have to use it which means they're exclusive to it. Get over it. Just because PC gamers are used to having a fix or a crack for everything does not mean there are no exclusivities. There never was a time where games weren't bound to a specific platform. There is absolutely no ethical reason to not produce your own exclusive content. |
Consoles have their own Operating System.
Steam and Uplay are not platforms they are storefronts for other platforms (Windows,Linux,Mac). Steam and Uplay are also free software, not very expensive hardware.
Oculus isn't a platform, if it wants exclusive software it should have exclusive features over the Vive that makes running its games impossible on the Vive or they should have developed a System.
Unlike a PC or a Console the Oculus is NOT A SYSTEM.
