Multiplats vs Exclusives. where does your choice go?

are the exclusives still adecisive factor for making you choose a console instead of another?

Both Multiplats and Exclusives are important.

I play a pretty even amount of multiplats and exclusives. I do base my choice of which console to buy on what exclusives they will be getting. I wouldn't have bought my PS3 last year if MGS4 wasn't coming out for it alone for instance.

Eh? What does it matter they are all games. Honestly SW gets far too carried with excusives and treat MP games like they don't exist.

I agree, but fanboys use exclusvies as their weapon to bash one or another console. I miss the good old days, when each console had very different libraries

Well since I own all the current three consoles, nothing is really exclusive for people like me. So if there are games or content that is "exclusive" to one system, I can always get it for that system. So I guess I'm both since I do put in the time for exclusives and multiplats games I get.

I wouldn't say I follow one console but if a console has a host of exclusives that I want then I'll most likely purchase it, did so a few months back with the PS3.

I'm more into exclusives, which is why I bought a PS3. I do play multiplats as well, but those alone don't satisfy my needs

When deciding a console exclusive is what I'm looking for, however I do buy both exclusive games and multiplats.

It is a game, i don't care whether it is exclusive or multiplat as long as the game is good. Sure Demons Souls exclusive to the PS3 but it doesn't come anywhere close to Dragon Age or Fallout 3 in terms of depth

I like exclusives more. I'd guess 7 or 8 out of every 10 games I buy are exclusives.

I seem to play exclusive games more than multiplats, but whether or not they're exclusive or multiplat doesn't effect my purchase.

GTA, Mass Effect, Left 4 Dead... I'd have to say Multiplat.

Apparently it seems I could argue that those are console exclusives, but then I wouldn't make sense, so call me old fashioned but I will carry on calling them multiplats.

mainly exclusives on my consoles, the only multiplat games i have on my PS3 are Street Fighter 4, Batman and GTA4.

my PC has more multiplats as iv got alot of steam games HL2, L4D, Dragon age etc. with the exception of Killzone 2 and halo 3 all my FPS games are on the PC.

i dont really pick a game because its an exclusive or multiplat i just buy games i like the look of, no real loyalty to any platform although my 360 has gone into the shadows as iv not played it since last November when i finished playing mass effect. perhaps January will bring it out of its slumber when ME2 comes out.

Definitely exclusives. It's not that I only play exclusives, it's just that most games I love happen to be exclusives.

I could care less who can play what on what system. As long as I can play it thats what I care about. 3 outta the 5 games I will get this holiday are multiplat (Forza 3 & Uncharted 2 are exclusives, MW2, DA:O & Borderlands are Multi)

As long as the game is good I don't care, but the weird thing is all my PS3 games are exclusive.

PS3 If you were really into exclusives You would have a Nintendo DS or a Wii.

Multiplat. There are some exclusives I like but considering how much multiplats outnumber exclusives... there are more to chose from. Also SF4 is MP which is my fav game this gen.

I buy both, leaning a little towards the exclusive side, but I know alot of people that just buy MP not on purpose that's just the games they play, so I understand having a 360 being it cheaper.

Neither. I just buy good games, period. I have a tendency to leave out titles scoring anything less than 9.0, though the occasional purchase goes towards 8.0 and 8.5, sometimes even a 7.5. I don't have that much time to play and enjoy all the games being released year by year (responsibilities in life keep me fairly occupied), so I generally go for the cream of the crop, whether they are exclusive or multiplatform titles.

I buy systems because of exclusives yet I have all 3 consoles of this gen. Why buy the console if there aren't any good exclusives for it? There's got to be a good enough reason for me to want the console. Multiplats are usually about the same gameplay wise on each system, so it's really not a determining factor when it comes down to buying a system.

It really all comes down to how great the games are, if it is good then I am all for it regardless of the game status of exclusive or multiplat. So yeah I am sort of both in this case.
