Unfortunately, there's no platform royalty for Windows games. I wonder why.

Um, Microsoft completely own Fable and Lionhead, so they don't need royalities. I think thats the point in this thread, they are choosing to release it on the PC in order to reach more people, and help push Natal. More money for them.

[QUOTE="Anjunaddict"][QUOTE="SoRawr2"]

yeah, that'd all be nice if i had actually mentioned the PS3.

it's DC because you are trying to negate potential damage to the Xbox 360 by either saying that "it doesn't matter, PC and Xbox 360 are brothers!" or even worse using the mentality that you can throw around PS3 comparisons in order to take the attention away.

Okay then, explain how this will hurt the Xbox 360? :) And I mean in the real world, not in terms of exclusive counts on system wars.

This isn't the real world, though. This IS System Wars. So whether it will hurt MS in the real world is irrelevant. Here on System Wars, it would be one less exclusive. It's pretty funny how things flip flop around here from year to year. 3 or 4 years ago, AAAE count was one of Lemmings' favorite conversation topics.

Exclusive is a relative term and in relation to the ps3 its an exclusive title not on it.

Whats wrong with XBOX 360

while ps3 is getting to keep all of its exclusives

In terms of The Show '10, a well thought out post was made regarding it's exclusivity, much like Mitu uses for GRAW. As such, Casey decided they were different enough to be deemed exclusive.

Not sure about LBP and MNR though :?

SaltyMeatballs

both are exclusives (we should wait to MNR portable version though) whoever thinks a psp game compares to it's PS3 counterpart...well :?

Whoever thinks it's exclusive when it's on the PSP... well.

i can play a flash gears of war 2...guess its not exclusive either since its on pc...what? you cant compare them? but why they have the same name...

Fable 2 was mediocre do not see Fable 3 being any different. I could care less about it coming to the PS3.

Im debating against people saying it's a MS exclusive. That's be like me saying Battlefield is a DICE exclusive...

This isn't surprising news / rumor. I'm mildly interested in Fable 3. If I do play it in the future, it'll be on the 360.

It does seem very likely that it'll be on the PC (if not at launch then eventually), but as a fan of the other two games i hope they dont balls up Fable 3 with some tacked on gimmicky Natal usage.

Wait, Microsoft publishes it, owns the intellectual property, owns the developer, owns the operating system its played on, and owns the virtual gaming platform (Games for Windows - LIVE) for online play, yet it's not a Microsoft exclusive? How does that work out? Still can't be played on Linux PCs.

NOT exclusive to Xbox 360, but it is 100% exclusive to Microsoft. PS3 users can't play it. Mac users can't play it. And Linux players sure as hell can't play it.

Ditto, ALTHOUGH the first Fable was also available on Mac, but that was at a time when Microsoft did not own the IP and Lionhead did (Lionhead was independent around the Mac release).

Logic fAIL. When FF14 launches, and windows pc users can play with ps3 users, will that mean windows pc is a Sony platform? Before FF11 was on 360, when it launched as a PC/PS2 game, was PC a Sony platform? Better yet, after FF11 launched for 360, when PS2 and 360 users could play together, was PS2 a MS platform, or was 360 a Sony platform?

If the PC game in question has this header:

Then it is clashified as a MICROSOFT exclusive.

If it DOES NOT have that header (like Mass Effect 2 and Splinter Cell: Conviction) then it is NOT a Microsoft exclusive.

BTW- The word "clas s" (without that arbitrary space) is banned on these boards, so "clashified" was intentional.

It wasn't a troll attempt; just you failing to fact-check yourself.

BTW- DC Universe Online should be added to that list as well.

That's not the point of system wars, though. This board is here to let your fanboy loose to find out the console that "wins," and the console that loses has no bearing on anything outside of system wars. Unless, of course, it goes the way of the Dreamcast, which isn't going to happen to the big 3.

Fable was cool, if flawed. Fable 2 sucked. Don't care about Fable 3.

Khadaj32
Agreed. Loved Fable. Fable 2 was craptastic. I'm hoping Fable 3 is better than its predecessors.
