They're tied with cows, make fun of a good PS3 exclusive and they go all out to prove you wrong.

Easier to just post a jelly pic. :P

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

can everybody please just report him and put this thread to sleep?

CaseyWegner

Report me? Because I asked I simple question on the first page, and you herms went bonzo? Casey, I know you've been tracking me, all Snake like for along time. I don't think my wife gives me as much attention as you do. Are you single? :cool:

no. the question you asked on the first page was fine. it's your actions afterwards that are the problem.

not single. sorry.

I believe the hellstorm began on the third post with Mr. Tenaka2 and his "Begone peasant." I asked a simple question and was answered with a tempest of butthurt and...tattletaling? :P

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"] Well, I was kinda looking for some answers. I did not receive any as of yet. I mean, the master race should be able to answer this no problem. :cool:

ispeakfact

On the link you posted, press PC, you will see a long list of AAA games, im sure why you found that complicated lol.

And I'm sure you didn't find it complicated that I'm not seeing pc exclusives on that list. :cool:

Took me 2 sec to find the long list of aaa pc exclusives.

And you wonder why sometimes we call consolites dull? Sorry, no mercy anymore. can't even use a website properly. PC Gamers play games. Console gamers play 10 hour hand held corridor games.

so if he hadn't done that then this would have been a legitimate thread where you would have just said "sorry, guys. my mistake." after being shown the list?

"This is not console wars this is system wars" whine the hermits. But then they lump the MAC OS and Windows together to pad their exclusive list. Last time I checked Windows and Mac are two different operating SYSTEMS. And therefore games they share are not exclusive.

And WTF? Witcher 2 still counted as exclusive? How pathetic can you get Hermits. If you think anyone takes that bullsh!t list seriously you're kidding yourselves.

Since when is System Wars about being factually correct and serious? Maybe a long time ago but now it's all about getting under posters' skin and making people mad. In that regard he has succeeded brilliantly.

If you want things to change around here you need to get rid of all the trolls, and bring back the heavy moderations and rules. As is this place is truly chaos and nothing more.

I can put whatever OS I want on my PC,it still remains a PC...

If I wanted,I could replace my Windows with OSX or Linux anytime,but I still haven't changed the fact I'm using a PC...

Hell,I can even install more than one OS on my PC,and use the dual boot...

So because I can play the game on Linux its not exuclusive either? :lol:

without taking a side, its kind of a valid arguement. If a game is ported by a developer, to macintosh... doesnt the act of porting a game usually remove its "exclusive" status?

then again i think the idea that exclusives even matter is stupid in itself.

Sure it is, that is why 99% of my gaming is on consoles

.

Witcher 2, Mass Effect 3, Bioshock, Skyrim etc are all on xbox 360

Fable 2, Demons Souls, Halo, Gears, Ni no Kuni, Lost Odyssey, Dust, Bleu Dragon, Tales of Vesperia, Castlevania, Zelda SS are not on PC

Dark SOuls, Mass Effect came years earlier on consoles and are terrible PC ports

.

It is all about consoles these days

Gears is not on PC?

If you can play it on more than one system, it's not an exclusive. Even according to Gamespot's own SW Basics: http://uk.gamespot.com/forums/topic/29096536 And as far as Mac also being a pc, then what do you make from SW Basic no. 5? 5. The last rule. Games found on both the PC and the Xbox360 can NEVER be called Microsoft exclusives. (This is kind of obvious. Although it may be true that they are both run on systems that were developed by Microsoft, there are Sony computers. And since Sony is also a competitor, it therefore loses rights to be called exclusive.) Even GS refers to pc as a Microsoft system. You herms are really splitting hairs here. I suppose I could have named the thread title "Have computers running Windows only had one AAA title since 1998..." but Nooobody talks like that anymore. When someone mentions pc in everyday conversation, they are referring to a windows based operating system. You can talk technicalities and split hairs all you want, but that's the modern lingo.

Wrong. The PC is a machine. Without an OS it doen't do anything including play games. You're trying to say that any computer is a PC, which is an equivocation.

Well, mac runs windows too.

But the mac is a competing piece of hardware.

the pc is the system. just because it has more customization options doesn't mean it doesn't count. gamespot doesn't have a mac tab either.

Ok. So consoles are the "system." Gotcha. I'll bite and use your logic.

no. where do you see the "console" tab on metacritic or gamespot. that is not my logic. consoles are distinct entities. the customization options available to the pc are not.

Wrong. The PC is a machine. Without an OS it doen't do anything including play games. You're trying to say that any computer is a PC, which is an equivocation.

you're saying the operating system is what's important?

[QUOTE="MBirdy88"]And you wonder why sometimes we call consolites dull? Sorry, no mercy anymore. can't even use a website properly. PC Gamers play games. Console gamers play 10 hour hand held corridor games.

Dark Souls is a 10 hour hand held corridor game?

PC gaming has been PC gaming since before PC was synonymous with Windows. Is that such a difficult concept to grasp? Gaming on a PC means gaming on a personal computer. The term "personal computer" has been defined for you multiple times in this thread. Go be stupid somewhere else.

I would definitely make a thread or two about how much fun I'm having gaming on my iPhone but I would get flamed by ignorant people who probably would read none of what I wrote anyways.

but consoles are essentially personal computers... the hardware is all pretty similiar.

You can put linux on consoles afterall.

EDIT: and what if a console company struck a deal with onlive and got the service on consoles. These are all things to consider when defining a platform imo.
