This is getting ridicilous. Or it has been for a long time. There's no point in being an Xbox fan when all our games are multiplatform. MS betrayed his fans first by closing Ensemble, now by giving away all its (few) exclusives.

Soon we Xbox fans have nothing left. If this continues I am switching sides.


oh stop, 360 is a good console with good games, does it really matter if they are exclusive or not, does a game being exclusive makes it better?? Putting a game that is not even that big on IOS is not betrayal, its a smart move my MS to give their product more brand recognition. I mean christ, SOny has some kind of Infamous tower defense thing on FB, but you dont see people saying "Sony betrayed them"

If it was just Kenectimals or Alan Wake it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but MS let go of all their third party exclusives such as Bioshock, Ninja Gaiden, Star Ocean 4, Lost Planet, Mass Effect and lately even letting first party games like Fable go to PC. And their exclusives were already few in the first place.

How fun do you think it is to be a longtime loyal Xbox fan and have nothing left to brag about?

never notice many Xbox fans hates PC,even in 2ch,like me love my PC becuase only PC can play hentai games,i play 5+ hentai games per month

don't bring them to same level with you



You cant moan that games appear on the PC for christs sake, did you pick a 360 instead of owning a pc? No, you picked one instead of a PS3 - the games are not on the ps3, Microsoft chose to make more money by releasing on a system that is insanely popular - how is it betraying you? If you really feel the need to brag with exclusives then that is kind of pathetic, did you make them? Did you tell microsoft how to develop them? Then why feel pride in them?

Again I will say that If the Halo franchise, Gears of War, Fable, Forza, Left 4 Dead, Splinter Cell, Tropico franchises are embarrasments then your dictionary needs updating!

Add to that the various PC titles like The Witcher 2, Supreme Commander 2 etc that come out for the 360 and not the PS3.

Add to that the franchises that prefer 360 (Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, Fallout franchises) plus the dozens of kinect exclusives and Microsoft is doing alright at the end of its life span (especially considering some steller older exclusives such as Mass Effect).

Um MS never had those 3rd party games to begin with, a third party publisher can do what they want, what would you have MS do?? SPend the TONs of money it would have cost to keep those games exclusive just to appease a small minority of zealots?? THat makes buisness sense. Bioshock was on PC, Ninja Gaiden jumped ship years ago. Star Ocean?? SE said from day one there would be a PS3 version. Mass Effect PC. Lost Planet has beeb multi for a while

ANd if your hurt because you have nothing to brag about?? Then that is really sad and you might wanna check the mirror and see what is actually important, games which 360 has in spades, exclusive or not

I see where you're coming from but you're still kinda wrong. L4D, Splinter Cell, Tropico, Fable, witcher, Supreme Commander, they are all available on PC, which makes them NOT exclusive to 360. Hell those games i mention are NOT MS IPs so i fail to see how it being on PC benefits MS' bottom line. DC Universe is published by SOny for both PC and PS3, so that helps them. Hell Fable is the same deal. Unless these games are all released under the games for Windows thning or whatever but i doubt that.

Franchises that prefer it?? What does that have to do with anything?? WHo cares if more people bought COD 13 for 360 than PS3?? Still doesnt make it exclusive. Batman, FF, Tekken, hell just about any fighting game, Just Cause 2 favors PS so what??



Around the Network

I didnt mean favour with sales I meant programmers making the better version with either exclusive or timed exclusive DLC etc - If i was a massive fighting game fan I would have a ps3 as the controller is better suited to fighting games.

As a shooter and strategy fan I prefer the 360 (actually own both so its by the by for me)

Games that appear on the PC are still console exclusive, the consoles are in direct competition with each other, not the PC (as taking on the PC would be a stupid thing to do)



Slimebeast is from Sweden. I share the same thoughts of that guy. PC is very common here and MS has not done the 360 any justice similar to the PS3 in my opinion. (Exclusives that is).



According to Wikipedia:

Xbox 360     883  Total games  129 exclusive  79 Console exclusive (This does not include Kinect or Arcade games)

PS3              699  Total games  109 exclusive  90 Console exclusive (This does not include PSN games)

Kinect            66  Total games                       48 Console exclusive

This gives the 360 127 console exclusive titles and 949 total games. I'm pretty sure the Arcade exclusives outnumber the PSN exclusives also.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Xbox_360_games

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_3_games

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Kinect_games

Also the last time I checked Metacritic the 360 had more 90+ , more 80+, and more 70+ games than the ps3.

So please stop with the "360 has no exclusives" and "ps3 has better games". MS is pushing close to $1 billion a year in profits with the 360, so I think they know what they're doing.

Microsoft is going to have a hard time differentiating their console from the PS4 next-gen. If you have almost no exclusive why would people buy your console over the one which has dozens of exclusives?

well actually xbox have alot of exclusives unfortunately theyre all kinect games.  i think they mightve have had 50 exclusives this year.  Exclusives is the microsoft problem exlusive normal games are. 

It's kinda sad really.  Did they have any other games this year other than Gears, Forza and HALO redux?  Only announcement for 2012 is Halo 4....  Microsoft will once again slaughter ps3 at the end of the year but they have to do something for the first 10 or they will crap out. 

2012 CES Keynote Schedule

Monday, January 09, 2012

6:30 p.m., The Venetian, Level 5, Palazzo Ballroom
Steve Ballmer
Microsoft Chief Executive Officer
This will be the most important date for microsoft.  Other than Win 8 and hawking on kinect and xbox sales they will have to start announcing something for holiday 2012.  Could something pop up out of nowhere (Last of Us proves that) but theres no chatter about any new IPs and MS has to be loud about new stuff not quiet following a dismal first 3 quarters in 2011.


Ew the nintendogs wannabe.
