PC/Mac/360 exclusive!

True!  We have a new category of exclusive to argue about.  Somone tell Naz - he needs to update his sticky on all the variations of exclusives.

Never thought there'd be a day when something would be 'exclusive' when on a Mac and a PC - talk about ironic.

But first we need an epic argument about it. I think about 13 pages @ 25 per page or ~314 posts ought to do it.

To start, clearly the next Half Life can't be classed as 360/PC exclusive if it releases on Mac, too.  Heck, MS probably still hate Apple and Apple computers more than Sony and the PS3 so this is a major blow.  Also, I hope they don't dumb down the PC version as a result of this.  Finally, if they're going to support the Mac - of all platforms - then they have to start supporting PS3 otherwise they must be lazy, MS biased devs.

There, that should start the arguement.

That post has made my day. You have captured the essence of ignorance on this board perfectly right there. I was amused, but then the last sentence really made me laugh aloud.

 

Seriously though, if  HL3 gets dumbed down for the 360, then I will sell my 360 and bash it every single chance I get. It's a PC game and a PC franchise, if the 360 people want to play it right then they should just drop the paltry sum it takes to build a PC and play it on one.

Thx.  I'm not sure some realize I'm joking but I'm glad you did.  Me and Squilliam are just having some fun mucking around.

It's amazing how easily you can use a few choice phrases and presto - the usual complaining post with a tinge of bias.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

lol at this thread, very funny replies.

anyways, it probably won't end up on the ps3 which doesn't bother me much. turns out i don't care for half-life. i will shed a few tears for the lack of portal 2 though...very very good game.
