Regardless of the fact that ME1 is on PC -- which is where I played if first time around -- Microsoft do have a point here, in that the PS3 ME experience will be gimped. Personally, I would prefer 1 & 2 be released on the console to ensure 2 gets decent sales, but it looks pretty obvious that won't be happening now.

How is it an Xbox 360 exclusive when it's also on the PC (and arguably in a better version)?

Because the PC is not an exclusive...and may I remind you, the only operating systen it is meant to bve played on is a MS one, so it is a Console Exclusive, and a MS Exclusive.

Anyway, ME2 will sell millions of Xbox360 to PS3 owners!!!!! ; )

Um, what?

Ugh, This is stupid, if this post doesn't come out right, I'm gonna find the servers hosting VG charts and burn them!

Anyway, my post was all messed up, I'm not even sure what I was trying to say there. XD

What I meant to say was that A PC is NOT a console, Which makes ME a console exclusive, which means that it is an exclusive. And if you really can't understand that simple fact, then I have another one for you. ME on the PC was designed to play on a MS operating system, which also means it's exclusive to MS porducts, which means it is a MS exclusive.

Except it's not, because a Windows emulator, or Wine, on Linux will probably be able to play the ME games on a non-Windows PC, if not now then at some point in the future. It might have been meant to be a Windows exclusive, but it really can't be. In that respect you're right that PC's really aren't consoles.

Read the bold underlined part again.
