Though the thread title could have used some rewording, such as system game releases including a section at the bottom for the dual PC/X360/PS3 releases. Listing PC/360 games is acceptable. Sales for games such as Mass Effect and Gears are substantially higher on the X360 in comparison to PC. The ironic thing is that, when you buy a Windows based PC game you are in turn supporting MS, double bonus for the MS machine. The same can be said for Sony's Blu-Ray, PSP, and PS2. My money supports both, so it is good for gaming. I think the reasoning behind the "why dont you just put all the PS2 games on the list" is because less than 20% of the PS3 market is backwards compatible (man Sony needs to fix that).

This thread isnt a sales thread so I can understand the complaints, but games for a specific systems are games for a specific system. If its not on PS3, then the X360 CAN list it regardless of PC release, and vice versa for the PS3. We dont even want to begin fanning the flames if I were to discuss the cost effectiveness of maintaining a PC to constantly play games on X360 and PS3 at the same detail and frame rate year by year, release by release. I wonder if when some people are starting a thread to post, they are thinking "man, I hope I dont start a flame war or get eaten alive" LOL!!

Why bring sales figures to the thread? This isn't about that, especially when you picked 2 games that were released first on Xbox 360, then PC months after. That's like me mentioning Quake Wars, which was released first on PC, then on PS3/360 months after, and the PC version outsold both console versions combined.

Also, PC is more cost effective than any console. For $500 you can build a PC that will make games look better than the Xbox 360 AND being the PC games $10-20 cheaper than 360 games will save you enough money for an upgrade down the road and still leave some in your pocket:

 

 

$500 PC

+ $250 Upgrade

+ 30 games $50

= $2250

 

$350 Xbox 360

+ $250 Xbox Live membership (5 years)

+ 30 games $60

= $2400
