Talk about... ignorant.Karnage108360 users being able to play with PC users in Fable 3 all but confirms PC is a MS platform nope windows is a MS platform, the PC is not. basic example...i can play diablo 2 on linux...multiplayer and all. wheres the MS in that? same PC...no MS. you cant legally do that with a 360 or any other console but MS can do absolutely nothing to stop me from plonking linux on my rig.

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
it keeps losing EXCLUSIVES... Even it's worst games go MULTIPLAT.
while ps3 is getting to keep all of its exclusives
imagine if reach was also released on pc...the lems here would kill themselves...but i would be one happy gamer.
[QUOTE="Giancar"][QUOTE="lundy86_4"]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.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 :?

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...
Does anyone really care?killerfistPC users care. And I'm sure lemmings aren't happy about losing their best chance at AAAA.
Fable 2 was mediocre do not see Fable 3 being any different. I could care less about it coming to the PS3.
No surprise, MS gets hardly any exclusives these days, not enough FP development.djsifer01Fable 3 is FP :roll:

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

It actually quite funny that even though MS hardly has any exclusives. It still has more than PS3. :roll:
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.
[QUOTE="KaoSXFACTOR"]And guess what. That means its not exclusive :POh boo hoo! I guess Cows can have another field day with this one considering that it may also be developed for Microsoft WINDOWS!
Respawn-d
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.
ok am i seeing things?
because to my knowledge fable was only on the microsoft platforms i.e games for windows and 360

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).

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.
I really doubt MS cares if System Wars considers their game exclusive or not... Just saying
RyanShazam
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.
Then it´s PC exclusive as well.[QUOTE="XboximusPrime"]
Its console exclusive then.

Console Exclusive is actually a real thing. Wether peopel like it or not.
[QUOTE="theseekar"]Come on now,you just made that up lolSo, i guess no PC version, the whole thing was retracted and was false
Arach666
Well, not, that is what happened, it was an error
Not that showing the box a year before release seemed valid in the first place
