Lol at the OP!  But really, it doesn't matter if the game is an Xbox Exclusive, a Console Exclusive, or a Microsoft Exclusive.  All that matters is that those punks that only own PS3's can't play them! 

I no longer have a 360. Just a PS3. Yet, I just got done with a session of Mass Effect 2. Explain please. I'm a punk that only owns a PS3, yet I'm playing your "exclusive"

If you ONLY own a PS3 then you don't own a PC.  The devil is in the details.  Sorry.  You can't be a punk.



I have always felt that the PC is a gaming platform especially when you consider that it has some of the greatest games out there like Starcraft, Diablo II and even more especially when you consider how it has the largest played game in the world "FarmVille".

So I also have always felt that if something is also available on the PC then it isn't an exclusive.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

RDR is an exclusive?

Correct. Do you have any other questions?


Since you asked... in what way is it an exclusive, given that it's available on multiplats? Also, just to clarify, how is Smash Bros Melee NOT an exclusive, given that it is only available on gc???

Typically when presented with the issue of exclusivity, the person trying to prove the multiplatform status of a game will point out that it can't be an exclusive, since they can play it on their other choice of platform. Since gaming is a matter of owning the physical property (the copy) far more than it is the intellectual property (the game), this is why the list looks the way it does. I hope this clears things up.

If that were the case, digital distribution would be dead in the water.

DD, while less limiting in certain cases, is still very much bound by the limitation of copies and console ownership. Your ownership is still of the copy of a game, however this copy is merely hard drive space as opposed to a disc. In the end it's still just an Xbox 360 copy of Red Dead Redemption, if you get my drift.

also you must have a PC that can run the title at Medium quality at 30 or 60fps depending on the fps of the console version... other wise STFU
