I'm a little confused by the idea of "exclusive"

Exclusive means you can't play it anywhere else, hence that's why it's tied to "system seller" "System must have).. but if you CAN play the game elsewhere (via PC), then it's NOT a system seller.

 

Isn't high end PC gaming pretty niche though? I mean, if the Sims 3 only showed up on 360 and PC, its likely that the PC version would eat up all of 360's sales... for a game like Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, I am not so sure...

So I think for the thread, the idea of "exclusive" doesn't really mean exclusive, it just means console exclusive, aka you can may be buy it on PC, but not on 360/Wii/PS3/whatver any other console other than what it is on.

Also I am wondering, if a game comes out for a handheld and one console, its still considered console exclusive right? I think Heatseeker for example came out for PSP and Wii.

like I said.. the idea of "exclusive" means you can't get it anywhere else. hence it's something that drive up console sales... if you can get it elsewhere (ie: PC), then it shouldn't be called exclusive.

 

I mean, by creating artifical names such as "console exclusive", it's no different than me adding PS2, PSN and PSP games until the list under an artifical name of "SOny exclusive".
