let me guess pc...... well it's still exclusive... stop saying 360 exclusive it's MS exclusive..... if they pay for an exclu why shouldn't they use it for both their platform XB and MSW ????? that argument is old and doesn't stand... it is exclusive you can take it any way you want.....

trust me if nintendo and sony had a OS distribution they'd do exactly the same...

 

Here's the question.

 

if I can play those game and I don't own a 360... How can you define that as "360 exclusive"?????

This argument comes up every time someone mentions 360 exclusives, and every time someone gives the same answer, so I might as well:

PC gaming is generally less accessible, more "techie"-geared, and mostly off in its own little world compared to console gaming. It's easy to prefer one or the other; thus, when a game is announced for [insert console here] and PC, it might as well be exclusive to whatever console it's for, as far as non-PC gamers are concerned. Not everyone has the patience, technical know-how, money, or will to maintain a "gaming rig" when you can just grab a console off the shelf, hook it up, pop in a disc, and go to town. (In addition, some of us run OSX or Linux, so gaming on our computers is sort of out of the question.)



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

or.... how about this??? Instead of making definition. how about STICKING with the basic meaning of "exclusive", which means 1?

or just say games on your console, and drop the whole "exclusive" idea. It's pointless anyway.

Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Or we could just keep talking in terms of "true exclusives" and "console exclusives." Which we, er, have been all along.

Either way, "console exclusives" have their place. Someone like me, who uses Macs, obviously doesn't, and will never, own a Windows PC, so "console exclusives" ARE true exclusives for me, and they are for many others too.

I am a Mac user as well, and I built a PC for the purpose of playing games. I would like to know if a game is something I need to get for the 360, or if it's something I can get for the PC. Defining them differently means something to me.

what's 'true exclusive' to you means absolutely nothing. 99% of people here are using their Windows PC, which means most of them has a mean to play your so-called "true exclusive" games.

Too Human I wouldn't categorise as a 'less hyped exclusive' though.

Until the last two days I hadn't seen ANY hype for this game.  In the last two days its just been Spartan saying its bad

Huxley could be a good hit title

BTW: AAA title is a game that scores 90% and above. Between 80.0 to 89.999% is AA tittle rating. Between 70.0 to 79.999% is A title rating.
