Totally agree with this.

Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

I suppose Sigma 2 can be called a remake of NG2 with the differences.

That's a "Yes" then, thanks for clearing it up

So, somebody would be banned for saying Left 4 Dead is 360 exclusive?

Okay.

I suppose if they're warned first, then it's okay. I still think it's a bit nitpicky, but if it clears the forums of "X is an exclusive" "No it's not!" "Fanboy!" *BAN*, then I suppose it's a good thing.

Would have been better to say the rule is if it is exclusive to a certain console then it is exclusive.

PC isnt a console, it isnt even a standard platform. But anyway....

No, the PC isn't a console. Hence, the term "console exclusive"

But is it really correct to call Mass Effect an exclusive, when it is on two, current, readily available platforms?

So if I make a typing mistake, it can get me banned?

*tapes down e,x,c,l,u,s,i,v*

How hard to typing now.

Alright thanks.

I never really got any warning messages (except some Game database warnings about things I was not doing the right way >.<) and I've never been banned so I didn't really how it worked.

Sorry about that, I hope you don't hate me for it

No way!

I'm happy I know how to do it the right way now. I must apply the rules of the site and it's perfectly normal. Don't be sorry for doing your job >.<

You are authority and I must respect.

And I quiet appreciate you
