We need to stop making it an argument that 360 games that go to pc. The reason that many go like ur halo, halo 2, maybe gears and what not is simple. ITS freaking MICROSOFT, they are a computer software giant. of course there going to take there console exclusives and move them to the pc. it allows them to go to a even bigger market and make even more money.

my other argument is to also still include the 360 games even if they do go to pc if ur making a great gaming comparison arguement. why because its one thing if u own a wii and a pc gaming console. but i mostly see cows try and claim different arguements. i should add a poll of how many cows honestly own atleast a ps3 and also a gaming pc that is worth (u spent) over 1000 dollars on.
[QUOTE="cobrax25"]No, unless the game is made by MS itself, MS does not profit from the sale. they do not get royalties like they do with console game sales. This is correct. Open platforms rule.
[QUOTE="cobrax25"]No, unless the game is made by MS itself, MS does not profit from the sale. they do not get royalties like they do with console game sales. so they get zero money for publishing a game.

Microsoft doesnt make Halo they cant tell them to send it to the PC... And going by your logic why didnt Rise of Nations,AOM, and AOE show up on consoles

It's not our fault that the Xbox 360 loses so many exclusives to the PC, but it sure doesn't help having to read about yet another Xbox fanboy crying about it. :lol:

Just as you said, they might have published it. Microsoft does publish games, but they get no royalties for games published on the WIndows platform. There are MANY games on the PC for which MS gets no money at all. It's an open platform and that's the best kind of platform to have. I don't understand why you WANT Windows to be a closed platform. It doesn't make any sense to me.

so now console wars are flat out about which company generates the most money i could have sworn this had to do with consoles and games.. voxware00
in a sense they are. why would these companies make consoles. its all about money sure they can make the selling point of we care about the customer and offer this and that. there are three things in this world that many people go by Sex, Money, and Power.

so are u saying no money at all is behind having the liscensing for the logo of something like bungie or microsoft on a video game box. im pretty sure there trade marked. that is what liscensing i was talking about.

I find that remark odd for someone with your sig considering Christianity teaches that those things are poor measure of success. I just found it odd. Anyway, there is no licensing involved in the Windows platform. If i wrote a game for Windows I could freely publish it myself, charging users who play it or not, and I wouldn't owe anyone a dime. In fact, many people do this and release various programs for small fees or even for nothing (these programs are called "freeware" and they can be free because MS charges nothing for allowing programs to run on Windows).
