Chandler said: It's remarkable how many games on the PS3 get carried over through the lists. Ni no kuni is listed for a third time, TLOU has its second entry and Sly Cooper too. That's why the PS3 list always looks like it has way more games, because Sony announces games way early.

Depends on the list. If its a list that excludes PC/360 exclusives and Kinect games (like this list), then the PS3 usually does receive more exclusives, even without the delayed/unreleased ones. Especially in recent years. Also, I can only assume you're not considering the Wii, since the Wii typically has more exclusives in these types of lists.

I find it hilarious that a game like "Dollar Dash" is included on the list for multiplatforms, but they/you couldn't include Dragon Quest X on the Exclusives list.

I'm sure that there are other games on PS3 and/or 360 that are missing from the list, but here's just a few known titles missing from the list that are on the Wii U (some are multiplatforms)...

Dragon Quest X
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XII
Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2
Sacrilegium
Bit.Trip Presents Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien
Pier Solar HD

Of course, the point of that list is to show incompleteness relative to current information. Then there's the incompleteness of the current information. The fact that we don't know about a game for the Wii U doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Any of the multiplatform titles that is marked as not coming to the Wii U may indeed be coming.

Sometimes, this is because they have a specific reason not to announce a version alongside the others, such as agreements with MS, Sony, or Nintendo. Other times, it's because development on the Wii U is less guaranteed - that is, they're working on a Wii U version, but it's less ready and they don't want to release a lower quality version (quality having to do with the game experience, not the ability to "run the engine" or stupid stuff like that).

Of course, nowhere near all of the multiplatform titles are going to come to the Wii U. It's not surprising - many of them have been in development for many years.

The biggest hint at incompleteness, though, is the Wii U exclusives list. Let's look at release dates of those games, shall we?

Rayman Legends - February 13
Pikmin 3 - Spring
The Wonderful 101 - Launch Window
Wii Fit U - First half
Game & Wario - Early 2013
Lego City Undercover - Q1
Bayonetta 2 - Uncertain, likely first half

The point? Where's the second half of 2013? Do you really think that there's nothing, even from Nintendo, in the second half of 2013?

One last thing to point out. Thief IV hasn't been confirmed for any platform, and is rumoured to have been pushed to "next-gen consoles" (as of earlier this year), which may or may not include Wii U. It was originally announced in 2009, and we still don't know what it's going to be released for - given this, it's kind of absurd to have it listed on this list at all, any moreso than it would be to, say, list Legend of Zelda for Wii U.

pezus said: Areym said: I laugh at the lonely Xbox exclusive...which will probably sell more than all PS3 or Wii U exclusives combined TT~TT" Anywho, that is a lot of PC exclusives. Too bad i haven't heard from pretty much all of those games. Looking forward to Ni no Kuni, The Last of Us, Beyond, God of War and tales of Xilia. Looks to be a great year 2013. Nah, not even close lol. Did you not see Wii Fit in the U lineup and God of War+Last of Us will sell over 6m combined. I expect Gears:J to sell in the 4-5m range when all is said and done.

At least you're optimistic about it. Now that I think of it, I think Gears 3 hasn't hit 6 mil yet. Nevertheless, i am mentality prepare for PS3 exclusives to sell below expectations. It doesn't stop me from enjoying them to the fullest, but it is always a bummer to see hard work go unnoticed (not always the case)

I don't blame them. With the Nextbox likely releasing next year, it makes sense to focus what little studios they have on the new console. Microsoft's strategy with the 360 has never been about having a high amount of different exclusives, especially recently. I don't see why they would suddenly change when we're transitioning to next gen. Sales for the 360 are going to be fairly low next year regardless of first party support. It's best to leave 3rd parties to do the job, which they've been successful at so far.

There's a Hobbit game and it's PC exclusive?

kowenicki said: an excellent illustration of why exclusives hardly matter anymore.

You're right. We'll all be too busy playing Rome 2 all day every day to notice all those other games.

Aldro said: dahuman said: Aldro said: (Some misleading pc exclusives since many of them are indie games, just fyi) yeah? and what do you have against Indie games? are they not real games? exclusives are exclusives and PC has always owned that front. Sorry I have nothing against it, its just that my friend who linked me to it wrote that so I decided to put it up to in order to avoid someone screaming XD I have found lists of the previous year, however some of the titles are not there due to not yet announced and some were delayed. Theyre apparantly made fairly early in the year / before we get into the year even. So yeah, grain of salt on errthing but it sure does give some view imo. Im googling "Game releases Imgur" etc to find these. Lots of errors are there, but try to stay relaxed >_> XD See below for yourself XD   Cant seem to find any in 08-09-10 though

Not to mention LA Noire is also on PC now :P I wasn't really taking that list seriously anyways.

Nice list, looks like 720 will be out next year for sure.
