let me guess pc...... well it's still exclusive... stop saying 360 exclusive it's MS exclusive..... if they pay for an exclu why shouldn't they use it for both their platform XB and MSW ????? that argument is old and doesn't stand... it is exclusive you can take it any way you want.....

trust me if nintendo and sony had a OS distribution they'd do exactly the same...

 

Here's the question.

 

if I can play those game and I don't own a 360... How can you define that as "360 exclusive"?????

 

This argument comes up every time someone mentions 360 exclusives, and every time someone gives the same answer, so I might as well:

PC gaming is generally less accessible, more "techie"-geared, and mostly off in its own little world compared to console gaming. It's easy to prefer one or the other; thus, when a game is announced for [insert console here] and PC, it might as well be exclusive to whatever console it's for, as far as non-PC gamers are concerned. Not everyone has the patience, technical know-how, money, or will to maintain a "gaming rig" when you can just grab a console off the shelf, hook it up, pop in a disc, and go to town. (In addition, some of us run OSX or Linux, so gaming on our computers is sort of out of the question.)

 

or.... how about this??? Instead of making definition. how about STICKING with the basic meaning of "exclusive", which means 1?

or just say games on your console, and drop the whole "exclusive" idea. It's pointless anyway.

 

Or we could just keep talking in terms of "true exclusives" and "console exclusives." Which we, er, have been all along.

Either way, "console exclusives" have their place. Someone like me, who uses Macs, obviously doesn't, and will never, own a Windows PC, so "console exclusives" ARE true exclusives for me, and they are for many others too.

 

what's 'true exclusive' to you means absolutely nothing. 99% of people here are using their Windows PC, which means most of them has a mean to play your so-called "true exclusive" games.

 

 I'm sure most of us could play games such as Rome: total war, but those games are what, 5 years old? My gaming pc can barely play AoE3 and Medieval: total war2.  As time goes by, my pc is getting weaker and weaker, so a console was a natural choice, since I don't have 600$ to spend on a new pc. (I can get a 360 and what, 6 games for that price!)

PC exclusive and True exclusives.

You ps3 owners hate that idea because it means WE 360 users get more games YOU can't play unless you spend EVEN MORE MONEY on computer hardware. So, who really wins? the guy that only has to use a 360 to play games? or the guy that has to update his pc, and buy a ps3 to play the games the 360 has?
