If a list of PC exclusives would need to be included to remove multi-platform titles from the list of exclusive games then I think that would be the most sensible course of action. For people who own multiple gaming systems looking for a list of exclusive content (myself included) a list of games that are truly exclusive is more useful and informative. I guess this is up to the OP though.

a lot of great titles like Gears of War and COD4 all got much much better sales on 360 than PC

if you are trying to say that a lot of games sell better on PC, you better suggest some examples that we are all familiar with

by the way, many people here saying that pc gives them no need for a 360, they should say that if they want to miss great titles like Gears of War 2, fable2, Halo3 and Star Ocean 4, or they can wait until some years after these great games finally find their ways to PC, or they should just simply say that these 360-exclusive games are all rubbish and not worth buying at all.

But the point is that its own by MS,thats the fact,you cannot get rid of that,taking exclusives away from 360 for PC is just stupid when they both are owned by MS,Thats like saying"WELL GTA SA IS XBOX 360 EXCLUSIVE" then someone says"BUT ITS ON PS2" then i say " NO NO NO ITS EXCLUSIVE,A NEXT GEN EXCLUSVE"(not that the game is exclusive but its the only last gen game coming to XBA and not PSN)

I got it from PCGA's Horizon Report. Here's the PC's 2007 worldwide revenue breakdown if you're interested:

Total 2007 PC revenue: $10.7 Billions

Online: $4.8 Billions (subscriptions, in-game transactions)
Retail: $3 Billions
Digital Distribution: $2 Billions
Advertisement: $800 Millions

Well, I was right for the most part.  The real information here is $3 billion at retail and $2 billion in DD.  Very good numbers for DD though.  Could be about even by now though maybe?

Who cares if Microsoft owns Windows? This isn't Microsoft versus Sony, this PS3 versus 360. I thought we were comparing what games I would need to own a 360 to play versus what games I would need to own a PS3 to play. That's the point of exclusive games right? It has nothing to do with corporations, it has to do with reasons for a guy like me to drive down to Wal-Mart to buy a 360. To be able to play great games that are available nowhere else. Is discussing game systems and games about companies and profits? I only care about the platforms I need to play the games I want, nothing else.

I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying, but you're on the right track. My point to the OP was, when you do a direct comparison, you don't put exclusives in comparison to the real world, you put exclusives that are within the range of the comparison. The OP can go either way, which is drop PC games entirely, or put the PC under the microscope also, and he would be correct. Here's another example.

A person asks us on the forum whether he should get Resistance 2 or Gears of War 2. He wants a list of pros from each game to help make his decision. Do you list the features one has over the other, or do you only list the features that are also not present in COD4, Far Cry 2 and plenty of other games the OP never asked about? In my opinion, a direct comparison should stay within the field of the comparison always.

You also are under the impression that this list should cater to multiple console owners. This list shouldn't cater to anyone because you can't predict what's everyone's situation is coming into this thread. One person may own no consoles. Another may own a PS3 and PC. The next guy is simply a PC owner, etc. etc. You can't guess what is going to be most helpful, so in the end, try to help as many as you can. I think the OP has the right idea by adding in the shared PC releases but also labeling them as such. That way there is more info, and those not interested in the shared PC games can see which are which and can ignore them.

Gears of War came out a full year after the 360's release and worst of all, it was directly associated with GFW. It had all the signs for low sales.

As for COD4, I still keep defending that the PC version is doing better than Xbox 360's. Hell, I even believe it's doing better than both PS3/360 combined. COD4 PC is still seen in several PC Top10 charts, and is still selling like crack in Digital Distribution (currently 8th in Steam Topsellers) and hasn't even dropped price.

Unless you have al platforms, you will always lose good exclusives. The good thing about PC is that it has way more good exclusives than any other platform.

Who cares?I dont care but its a fact that MS owns Windows and games are made for WINDOWS,therefore games are still for MS,They are MS Exclusives.

Thats why alot of 360 games should be added,the fact that PC is a MS Platform,much like PS2 is still a Sony platform...

But ya your right im wrong,i apologize.

also how would the average joe know if his computer can run the game and could end up wasting 50$ when he can easly get the game for xbox 360.

I made my decision, i wont include 360/pc games in that list because theire coming out on 2 different plattforms and this list is a exclusive only list.

and now
