nintendo games, since pc have motion control way before the wii.

exclusive means it on one platform, the moment it hits another one its multiplatform.

and i mean the same exact game, not spin off or sequels.

xbox 360 ,,microsoft corporation

game for windows microsotf corporation,.

If of all forms you buy yourself a PC not to play in xbox360, nonetheless, you kiss the ass of Microsoft.?

Loser..ha ha ha ha ha

Best post in the thread.

Oh I think they do.  Which is why they've always forced their internal studios to release PC ports at least six months after the console release of their game. 

With third parties, unless there's a publishing deal, usually the best they can do is convince the company to keep the game off the ps3.  They can't really hurt the PC, given the dozens of others games that people are more likely to buy/build one for.  They can, however, try to do as much as damage to the (at the time) struggling ps3 as possible.

Again.  You continue to further my point for me.   There aren't many "quality" games outside of Halo that you can't play on the PC.  I could list a whole slew of good games on PS3/Wii that you can only play on those two platforms.  Microsoft has tried to put just about every game on PC.   The point then remains,  what is the point in owning an Xbox 360?   What games would you purchase a 360 for?  If you had merely an average PC?

I never criticized Halo or console FPS,  but since you brought it up.  Microsoft tried to bring Halo(1) to PC and it failed and died miserably.  If it was such an amazing game it easily should have toppled PC based FPS.  Fact is, it didn't.  The simple fact is that console based shooters just don't match up to PC based ones.  Not yet and probably not ever.

people always muddle with the term "exclusive" to make their console look as best it can. Basically it goes like this, if the same game is available on any other platform of gaming then it isn't exclusive. That's al there is to it. Yes this means that PC/360 games are not 360 exclusive, just the same as any PC/PS3 game. And yes this means that Twilight Princess is not exclusive either, because it is available on something else other than the Wii.

Thanks for that. I think your post is pretty good as well.

I think the key comment in the above is this: 'many 360 games that are claimed as exclusive simply aren't; I play them now, and I have no 360'

That pretty much sums it up for me. The games in question are not exclusive to 360, they are exclusive to PC and 360. This is important, even to the 360/PS3 war, as it means that you do not need a 360 to play those games. To requote myself again: 'I play them now, and I have no 360.' This could not be the case if the titles in question were exclusive to the 360. This seems transparent and pretty indisputable; to me, at least

For me, the above clearly answers the OP's point: 'I don't understand why games released on the 360 and PC aren't counted as 360 exclusives in the context of the console war by some. You can't find them on any other console, therefore they are Xbox 360 exclusives.'

They are exclusive to PC and 360, not 360; thus, they are not exclusive to 360 alone. It is important to make the distinction, especially in the context of the console war, as, for example, many PS3 gamers have gaming PCs (including me); therefore, they can play the games in question even though they do not have a 360. Yes, the 360 has a game the PS3 does not have, but this does not mean you need to have a 360 to play it. In short: if you do not need a 360 to play a game, it is not exclusive to the 360.

Wii Sports not Wii exclusive CONFIRMED !!!!!!
