It's always been like this in System Wars, you have to be new(like a lot of people in this thread) to NOT know that.mitu123

I know, it's quite bizarre :P

You'd think having more highly rated exclusives, over one GOTY calibre game would be better (naturally consoles still have more than one GOTY calibre game, much like PC).

Shielder7

in 2007 Crysis 9.5, its unplayable on the consoles

in 2008 Crysis Warhead 9.0, it's unplayable on the consoles

in 2010 Stracraft II 9.5, it's unplayable on the consoles

See...I could play this game too on and on and on. ;)

And Steam makes PSN and Xbox Live a JOKE.

How many of thoes wone GOTY? Oh yeah..... Whens the last time a PC exclusive won GOTY? Oh yeah....... In fact How many PC exclusives win GOTY or any top catagory? Oh yeah thought so.............

So, it HAS to win GOTY? No thanks. I would take Crysis over SMG in a HEART BEAT. I would take Crysis Warhead over MGS4 in a HEART BEAT.

Crysis Warhead > MGS4.

|Eh, personally i'd take both over the Crysis series (SMG by a smidge), but games like The Witcher clinch it for me. If it wasn't for the damn crashes it would be my best of gen!

PC always wins, consoles are just cheaper and weaker versions of PCs that do less stuff. You're using a PC to talk about how better consoles are, you automatically lose the argument.

Gamespot's GOTY doesnt mean anything. Look at 2010 Red Dead won over SC2, im sure people will be playing SC2 for a long time while red dead is already hitting the bargain bins, Or 2004 where Resident Evil 4 won over Battlefield 2 and Civ4 lol, people are still playing both those games. Mark my words gamespot will never give a PC game GOTY, its just too much of a console centric website.

Largest amount of exclusives, best versions of multiplats, mod releases, immense amount of indie games that never get reviewed.

Yet developers seem to cater to the console gamers more. I wonder why..

You mean the declining development of console triple A highstreet retail dependent titles due to ludicrous costs? If anything the trend is that developers have been switching to smartphones and web development.
