Playstation 3, had over 200 Exclusives, you is just using 20, Exclusives is what sell consoles, (even if the other exclusives sold a average of 500 Thousands units, already is 180 Millions of exclusive games sold, and already is enought to make the Plataform worth, and make the Exclusives be the Reason to purchase the console) people purchase Multiplataform, after that, Exclusives is what sell consoles, if 1 People purchased the console for 1 of those exclusives, instead of geting it on Xbox 360, or on PC, already is Worth.

Is Funny how Exclusives suddenly does not matter, is what sell consoles, Only because Microsoft, does not want to push Xbox One's hardware sales, does not means that Exclusives, are not what move 10000000000% of the hardware sales, 3 Exclusives per person already is much, and enought to make the person chose that Plataform, over the another.

And you forgot Metal Gear Solid 4, that sold 6 Millions on Playstation  3, is a exclusive, if is not made by Sony, but is a Exclusive, still count, this put.

God of War Ascencion, sold more than 2.2 Millions units.

more 1.8 Millions from another Ratchet & Clank game,

1.8 Millions from Demon Souls,

1.8 Millions of Infamous 2,

 1.7 Millions of Beyond Two Souls,

1.7 of Kingdom Hearts,

1.65 of Heavenly Sword,

1.51 of Ni no Kuni,

other Motorm storm for 1.31 Millions,

1.25 Millions of Socom,

1.23 Millions of Tales of Xillia,

other Kingdom Hearts,  1.21 Millions,

1.19 Millions of One Piece Warriors,

1.14 Ninja Gaiden Sigma,

 1.14 Hot shoot golfs,

1.14 Sing Star,

1.13 Ratchet & Clan all in one

1.12 ModnationRacers.

1.12 Yakuza 3.

1.07 Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm

1.05 Warhawk

0.95 Yakuza 4

With those exclusives already is 124+ Millions of exclusives sold, More than all the Call of Duty games that launched on Playstation 3, more than All Assasin's creed, and any other game series that launched on Playstation 3.

With the other Exclusives that VG Chartz, don't track, can be 200+ Millions,  or even more, and already is a good thing, 70% of the 124 Millions of Exclusives, made the people want the Console, and sold the Hardware, already is more than 84 Millions units of Hardware sold, for the Main Exclusives, and still had a lot of other exclusives that would Add Dozens of Millions of Software sales,  Fat Princess, also did very well on Sales, but VG Chartz, don't track it.

Exclusives do move Hardware, otherwise, people would move to PC, and just Upgrade their PC, over the Years, and would be able to play any Exclusive, and Multiplataform, also play Moba, and MMORPG,  cheaper than Paying 1000+ US$ per generation to own all the Consoles.

1. No, u didnt say this. Also I did not say u said this.

2/3. Yes. It works that way. I see no negatives here - I simply choose the best option. Also, I can buy a second/third/PC console if the makers prove that it is worth it - look at my 360/PS3 part. Did I " lose " money on it ? No. I simply get an acces to where I want to be. If only the makers shows anything interesting , there is a lot that I can do. It's sad to say this, but games nowadays are too repetable to me.

4. No, that was more financial/technical issue if u ask me. If we compare this gen to the previous gens, we see the huge part of games are multiplats what makes choose a little bit easier. 

5/6. "All games on one platform " dream looks perfect, but I believe in competition.

I have to say that Xbox One, with Spencer on board looks better and better day after day for me, but now - if they announce a game that drives me crazy - i will rather upgrade my PC than purchase One. It will be cheaper for me, it will runs it better.

People purchase the Multiplataform on the Consoles, because they already had Spend the money on the Hardware, and the Consoles can run the game at a good Quality, but if all the Exclusives that you want would be on PC, you would chose PC, and PC, also have much more piracy than Consoles, we still have a lot of games that  people Download for PC.

And what is the Benefit from Making Exclusives go to PC ?, the Consoles gamers don't have any benefit, just that their Consoles will sell less, have Less support, and less Third Party Deals, and First Party games.

Did you think that Microsoft, the same Microsoft, that Pais Billions for Skype, Billions for Nokia, Billions for Minecraft, don't have the money to pay 60 Millions of US$ on the Development of the game ?, they paid atleast 20 Millions for Square Enix, otherwise they would not get the Tomb Raider timed deal, so don't came here to say that Without games releasing on PC, would not have sequels, and that Games are becoming more Expensive to produce, because i'm tired of hear such things.

Ratchet & Clank, a Franchise that don't sell on Blockbuster levels, aways was Exclusive, now have the 6-7 Sequel for the franchise, Digimon, a Franchise that sell less than 1 Million per game, nearly all the games are Playstation Exclusives, with some exception of 3DS Version, and the game is on their 27-31's Sequel, and out there have a lot of exclusives that sell enought to secure a Sequel.

Xbox One, will be very Damaged on Sales, if all their exclusives came for PC, while Nintendo, and Sony, will became so Strong, that if Xbox, try to release any new console, will be Destroyed by Sony, or Nintendo's consoles, because now you are planting the Seed, the Seed that all your exclusives are coming for PC, and even if you say that don't will come, does not means that is True, and this seed can Harm Xbox One, and Really Kill Xbox Two.

Is much Damage on the Long Run, only to get some Bucks, from PC, and i don't thing that is this much, with the 2.5 Billions that Microsoft, gave For Minecraft, was enough to make 40 Games on The Witcher 3's Size, or 35 games on Metal Gear Solid V's Size, so they had the money to use for Exclusives.

It depends. If MS will publish awesome games W10/Xbox One only, and Sony and Nin will lagging behind, I will switch to X1/W10. I dont get why people are so emotionally linked to publisher - the matter is not who publish the games or where u can play it, the matter is how good these games are and how many of them u will see in the future on ur platform.

Sony is the most safe pick now - even if some of their games will be weak like TO1886, there is still a chance their next game will be awesome, and they have the biggest menu to choose.

Look at Nintendo - they make crazy good games on Wii U, but u can count them on one hand fingers. Even if they will sell Wii u for 50 $, i will not buy it - the value isnt here.

No, they cannot do this, only because a game is made on Windows, and is made with DirectX, does not means that need to Release on Xbox One, and a Game that want to be sucessful, will not ignore a Install base so Huge of Playstation 4, to make a Exclusive, on a Console Install Base, that even Microsoft it-self, is Hurting their own sales.

I Can count a lot of good games on Wii U, but the console don't receive a lot of releases over the year because only Nintendo, make games for the Wii U, but you have Baiyonetta, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros,  Super Mario 3D World, Splatoon, Xenoblade Chronicles, but the only games coming are Zelda, Star Fox, and Pokken Tournament, are good games but not enought for a Console that don't have third party support.

Windows Store, cannot compete with Steam, and they are killing their only way to compete agaist Sony, so is not a good move, because if they don't have sucess with the Windows Store, and the exclusives coming for PC, hurt Xbox One's sales, they will have a hard time to come back.

And i almost forgot. Microsoft's worst move was make they-self seems like Liars, is more worth you pay Remedy, or anyone else with some Hundreds of Millions of US$, than hurting your public Image, now we don't know how much games will came for PC, because Microsoft, marketed a game for 3 Years as a exclusive, only to announce 6 weeks from launch, that it will launch on PC Day one, and this hurt the confidence on Microsoft, as a Gaming company, and this is worse than sending the Exclusive for PC.

I agree, but you haven't mentioned them.

And I don't need to.

You are only 1 of over 80 million people. Why people actually buy a console is a complex topic and, while you believe probably otherwise, be assured that over 80 million people didn't buy a PS3 because it had the better exclusives. There are so many reasons that people decide for a console over the other. It is not a single-reason buying decision for many which doesn't mean that this also applies to you.

I agree. I just explained my point on view on this topic.
