But XBox dosent have exclusives anymore.I mean, I think Halo 5 is still only available on the XOne and maybe one or another title, but yeah, no more exclusives.Dosent mean that the XOne is not a good product.Exclusivity means that a product is exclusive to either a product or an ecosystem.Console exclusivity is a silly marketing maneuver to make games more desirable and thus, makes the system more desirable.But that term simply butchers the term exclusive.

I mean, look no further than this year E3 MS presentation and the mess that was that the whole "console launch exclusive" and similar terms.Its getting beyond ridiculous.

 

I agree on your last sentence...that was pathetic but it shows that even MS knows exclusives DO matter, that's why they try to deceive people into thinking they actually had many (console) exclusives, not just the 5 or so they actually have.

 

Like I said earlier I don't agree console exclusivity doesn't matter. It matters a lot to tens of millions of gamers who don't game regularly on PC!

It actually does increase desirability of a certain console.

Oh yeah, they definely do matter.Thats why both Sony, and to much greater extend, MS creates these terms like console exclusive and launch exclusive or whatever new term they come up with.What Im arguing about is that those are not really exclusive, its just that companies butcher the meaning of words for marketing purposes.Not saying that it makes these games any less enjoyable(Nier is a very good game for example), but the use of the word that way just rubs me the wrong way.
