Is it fair to call games Xbox 360 exclus ...

When the majority get released on PC under Windows.Would it not be fairer to call them microsoft exclusives?A lot of people judge the success of a gen by the amount of exclusives, especially AAAE's. Since microsoft is windows and Xbox 360, is it fair to say that MS lost an exclusive to MS?I personally don't think it is fair, what do you guys think? Not that it really matters, you still get to play X game regardless. Is it fair to call games Xbox 360 exclus ...
I believe in ''console exclusive'' so it doesnt bother me.

If it goes to pc it's not exclusive. This applies for all consoles.
I think it's fair to say they lost it because they say 360 exclusive then it goes to pc which means this 360 exclusive can be played else where, now you want to make a new rule up which serves you best?

[/QUOTE]No. It's obviously no exclusive then, the same as for the Wii and DS.

[/QUOTE]Nope. The whole point of an exclusive is that it's unavailable on other platforms, thus making it a reason (assuming it's good enough) to purchase that platform over any others.

[/QUOTE] Same. I don't care if a game is multiplat as long as I get to play it.

[/QUOTE] Why?If I have Tekken: Dark Resurrection on the PS3, doesn't that mean I have one less reason to buy a PSP? Likewise, if I have GTA: LCS or Silent Hill Origins on the PS2, doesn't that mean I have one (or two) less reason(s) to buy a PSP?When you're someone who buys a console for GAMES, then it makes perfect sense and not at all foolish.
