Are exclusive games all consoles got?

After long reading posts and articles and from my personal experience with all types of gaming, I think that consoles only have exclusives, in every single other PC beats them.

Edit: To clarify my post, I also mean console exclusive, like RDR, Bayonetta and such games. Games not available on PC.

this generation alone, the pc has more high scoring exclusives (8.0+)than all three consoles combined.

Erm true its why i use my PS3 to play its exclusive games. But sum games like Fight Night not exclusive that dont get released on PC.

They have the games I want .... I tired gaming on PC .... it sucks, even with a game pad, I just dun have fun on PC.

I guess that is the main reason I own a Wii and PS3 to play Exclusives.

I also play Multiplats but I mainly play Exclusives.

The Ps3 has the cell! Teh Cell! THE CELLLLL!

Most people in the world prefer controllers to keyboards.

So people like consoles. Sure, hardcore gamers dont care, but they sure as hell dont make up the majority of gamers.

Except you can use any controller you want on pc, so it's better in that aspect too...

It may be better, but it doent appeal to people in the same way. Theres a stigma against gaming on the PC in modern society. Consoles seem less "geeky" to the regular public.

No. There's also:-

- many multi-plats which don't make it to PC.

- not having to wait for a long installation process for every game. The vast, vast majority of console games need no installation.

- for many people, it's convenient to have their console/s set up under their big TV in the lounge room hooked up to the surround sound speakers, whilst their bigger, more expensive PC is set up in a different part of the house with a computer desk.

- many people don't care about frequent upgrades in hardware and like using a console for anywhere between 5 and 10 years without ever having to worry about the latest games running on their system, or how well will they run, what upgrade may be worthwhile, what patches may improve performance, etc.

The PS3 has a badass theme then. :P

Yep true i have bought 9 games this year and only one of them is available on PC

PC just doesn't have any games anymore :(

Games are what make a cansole. . .and make PC gaming. Without games then consoles and PCs are simply silicon bricks. All those exclusives make consoles great, and the fact that PCs have very few exclusives makes them a waste of money, well at least paying the extra cash to have a "gaming" PC. In addition to this, console games are streamlined so there are no compatibility issues or differences in graphics as a result of having a medium or low performance PC. I could go on, but that is enough to address your fatuous assertion.

I doubt there is any truth in that.

PC gaming is somewhat more of a hassle compared to consoles. Not to mention the errors you get on a PC. Oh god, how much i hate getting errors....

Nah. I have no probems with a mouse, but the keyboard is the single worst game control device I've ever used.

I thought console games had multiplats, too?

that's because the statement is meaningless without any context. Everything is relative.

My guess is that he ignored several important barriers that would've kept the vast majority of them out.

For instance, this is probably a GS only list; lol. That's pure bias.

No not exactly, 360 has XBL which is a pretty big plus too me.

So all consoles have are more good games? They must be getting screwed after all!

And that's why consoles are better. Console exclusives that I can't play on PC are better than PC exclusives that I can't play on console.

I game a lot more on PC today than I used to, while I was away at college I didn't touch my consoles at all and played so many games on PC. So I started to think that PC gaming was actually better. But now that it's summer and I'm back home with my consoles I remember how much better console gaming really is.

I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. Everything system has exclusives and multiplats.

The "console exclusive" argument just seems to exist to exclude PC rather than say what isn't available on PC. The same argument can be made to say games not found on PS3 (Left 4 Dead 1/2, Fable 3, etc.) or games not found on Wii (Bayonetta, RDR, Dead Space, etc.). Just because a certain system is a console does not mean it can only be paired with consoles. I can boast how the combined exclusive libraries (in this case, meaning games not found on 360) from PC, PS3, and Wii dominate the 360's exclusive library, but instead of being used to say what isn't available on it, it's used to claim "ownage."

The only reason why I bring up the "console exclusive" argument is because most people boast paying a cheaper price for a console over a PC when it involves a direct price comparison. Consoles are cheap by themselves, but it seems hypocritical to say that paying $750+ - $800+ dollars is cheap as long as the money is spent on consoles. The only way you are going to get all of those "console exclusives" is to buy every console, and that is just excluding the games and other miscellaneous items.

**For the most part, preference plays a huge part in what a person may play, but preference cannot be debated since it is an individual's opinion. My argument refers to availability/variety rather than what type of games an individual may prefer.**

That's not true. A lot of console games are ported to PC.

I didn't say everyone. I know that there's plenty of gamers who prefer consoles, it's just that I know a lot of people who play just cod and halo.

[QUOTE="Chris_Williams"][QUOTE="cain006"]I know what you mean. A lot of people on consoles just play call of duty or halo and don't really know much about gaming.

A lot of people on PCs just play Farmville and Sims and don't really know much about gaming.

You act like there are no casual PC gamers. Meanwhile I don't know anyone who just plays COD and Halo on their consoles. Most people I know who play consoles play games from the 3rd to 7th, avidly.

Oh, and TC you forgot local 3-4 player with your friends, no lugging hardware around required.
