I think they matter because not everyone knows how to make a gaming PC.

I am a PC gamer and the exclusives is the only reason I bought the PS3.

as a PC gamer i built my PC for mods and and top of the line graphic(from 2007 -2011which I doubt would last till next gen console hit the market) the most memorable gaming experience for me are most from console, without exclusives like RDR, demon's soul, MGS and heveanly sword, the quality of gaming would serously stink.

As a PC Gamer I got my computer to play games with incredible graphical quality, as well as games with strategic depth and sandbox freedom of the likes which console games rarely see, particularly those exclusives that sacrifice fun and open game play for stuffy artificial corridors and generic cover shooting in order to be able to handle good graphics on six year old consoles. Not to mention all of the cool indie games I get to play. I use my xbox mostly for hockey and games I can play with my friends (most of whom don't have gaming PCs), and I use my ps3 to watch blu ray movies.

Consoles matter for their exclusives and most importanly for their marketing campaign. Nintendo marketed the Wii in a way that it got to the masses.

Pc gaming is barely marketed at all.

So, it goes Marketing > Exclusives > Price

PC : MMO, RTS

PS3 : Exclusives

360 : Everything else

I just made level 85 yesterday in WoW:cool:

I will just say that each of these platforms gives me a different kind of experience, I like having that diversity, of being able to play Heavy Rain on PS3, jump on my 360 to play a shooter, then jump on my PC and run some instances in wow.

My life would be boring without that variety.

But at the same time I find myself getting worn down because I'm missing alot of games that I don't have time to play, it's hard to keep up with 3 platforms.

While exclusives made the systems back when mario was still fueding with sonic now it seems to not really be that big of a deal. As far as the post about Nintendo marketing the Wii right...putting out a system a $199 while the others were close to $300 probably didn't hurt either.
@LazySloth718 congrats at hitting 85 sadly I recently retired from WoW due to the elitists in the dungeons but i'm kinda getting swayed into wanting to try out the Mists of Pandaria then our cap is 90 ha ha

This! Exclusives matter but i would also say that games a platform library doesnt contain also matters

In which the Wii has exclusives with good critic scores, you just don't like them, or Nintendo for that matter (though I shouldn't be surprised).
