Forums - Gaming Discussion - Why are exclusives so important to you?

I'm mostly referring to this recent topic, but it goes for all games: why is it so important for you that an announced game must be exclusive for your console of choice?

I mean, you can still play FFXIII on your PS3, why care if it's available for the 360? Why care if L.A. Noire is coming to the 360?

Why do you need to know if a game is exclusive to know if you should be hyped for it or not?



Around the Network

If a game isn't exclusive it means it isn't good anymore.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

Basically this.

Multiplatform games can still be very great but the standards are usually higher for an exclusive.

Was Devil May Cry 3 better as a PS2 exclusive than Devil May Cry 4? Is BioShock a worse game when it got ported to the PS3?



What Leo said,
The game takes advantage of the hardware. It doesn't have to be changed for anthor console's ablitly. This is why wii excluesive are usually better than Muiltplatforms. Dunno about other platforms though

I'm sure you get the point. There will always be exceptions.

Being ported is diffrent. It was made as a exclusive. When the game moves somewhere else it changes but it doen't mean it gets
worse. Unless they are being made at the same time
