if it included games under 40 dollars, believe me, pc would own even more.

There's over 60 exclusives there coming this year for the PC, and that's not counting all indie games. Now add the multiplatforms coming also.
well PS3 still has a way better lineup than wii and 360 combinedKevinButlerVPWell, thats subjective.. If none of the ps3 games interest me and the Wii games do, I guess that would mean the Wii has a better line up.
As much?

Pretty much this... Also..... you might have been a little late though the picture is pretty cool.
well PS3 still has a way better lineup than wii and 360 combinedKevinButlerVPYou're saying that at the beginning of 2011?
I bet the PC has more then that anyways. People weren't comparing the PS3 2011 exclusives to the PC. They were mostly bragging about much ass kicks it over the 360.
That 360 lineup (can we call it a lineup? :lol: ) is pathetic. Theres going to be nothing but Kinect titles and arcade games, then in 2012 their going to finally release all those exclusive FPS they were talking about. If you have a PC and PS3 your going to be enjoying tons of new games then when you factor in multiplats its just overkill.
Allow me to fix your trend title. "PC has a lot of exclusives for 2011, more then 3 times compared to PS3"
To bad NONE of the PC exclusive games interest me at all. I will stick with the consoles. ShadowNinja87It annoys me when people say nothing interests them when a console has a large lineup then they turn around and say the only 1-2 games releasing on their system interests them. You mean you never looked at any exclusive PC game and decide if the game interests you because of the name or because your PC can't run any of those games. Theres alot of PC exclusives i wanna play but my PC can't run them.
The other thread got deleted.. ?
I guess the butthurt fanboys probably got so mad they started trolling the entire thread.
Men lie, women lie, opinions are opinions.. but numbers don't lie. 60 exclusives + multiplats = God.
Now tell 'em why you mad, fanboys.
Lucianu
Do you post on the systemwars website? Theres the only place i remember people posting tons of head pics lol.

I found a lot of head pics & other smilies on a certain site, its a hip hop site, i'm a rap fan. And i use them as smilies here also, the smilies on Gamespot are boring as heck, they should be changed.
I can also make head pics my self from other normal pictures and use them as smilies. The posibilities are endless lol, and they are pretty funny & do a better job at describing how i feel.
I'm smiling like hell like now, almost laughing.
Anyway, enough offtopic, or the mods will moderate me.
Ontopic: uhh.. Diablo 3 will dominate!
Okay, I think I am going to say somethings that will piss a lot of pc and wii people off.
It doesnt matter how many exclusives pc and wii has, it still doesnt have as good of aLINE UPas the ps3 and 360.
they haveexclusive games, BUTa lotof the good multiplat games are not on the wii or pc. Assassin's creed: Brotherhood, Red dead redemption, Vanquish, final fantasy XIII, mortal kombat (2011), Enslaved Odyssey to the west, Super Street Fighter, Bayonetta, Ufc undisputed 2010, Ninja Gaiden etc. these are just ones that comes to mind and well known, if i dig i would probably find more.
The wii had a lot of good exclusives in 2010 but at the end of the day, if you buy the wii over the other consoles, you will be giving up numerous of great multiplat games
and sad to say it, while i love that the pc is getting more exclusives, the line up for it isn't really as great as consoles. I dont really care about the wii though.
Okay im done, bring on the hate.
Huh?? That is an opinion. In my opinion, which can be different then someone elses, the PC Line-up IS AMAZING!!!!!! This is coming from a Mostly Console Gamer of 2000's. To me, PC Games offer a unique experience because we have a lot of different unique developers. To be a console developer most of the time, you must be either rich or have a publisher on top of you. Having a corporate publisher is nice but most of the time it censors the uniqueness of games, for the sake of established IPs profit share. Again, this is just my opinion.Okay, I think I am going to say somethings that will piss a lot of pc and wii people off.

What's important to note about the PC line-up; when compared to that of consoles, is that PC is 100% 3rd party. As in every exclusive PC gets, it earned, the developers chose to produce that game for PC exclusively. When I look at the PS3 list, I see all sorts of Sony funded projects.
To the gamer; they won't care about that, just so long as they get the games. But in a platform comparison, it shows PC is able to compete with consoles, despite the lack of a 1st party to simply buy/pay to fill out their exclusive line-up.

I respect your opinion. I never said the pc line up wasn't amazing, in fact it is very amazing. I am just stating that it and the wii lacks some stellar multiplat games. You are right about the uniqueness of the pc. The interface and controls for wii and pc are different. That is one of the reasons why they have so many games that are created just for them.
the ps3 and the 360 are largely the same. hell, even the buttons have the same placement and do the same things. that is why there are games created just for them. but they are on two consoles so we dont call them exclusives. the 360 and ps3 should honestly be under one category, but obviously that will never happen.
My point is,the ps3 and 360's line up is on par with or better than pc. simply because most of the games that are only on ps3 and 360 are not considered exclusives, exclusives count dont really tell the full story. Thats why I get some what upset when people say the wii has the best line up because of its numerous exclusives (this is an example)

So now its Ps3 and 360 united?i think the thing is that while PC does indeed get many exclusives, not just this year but every year, and they may be pretty good, nobody really knows about them except for the already hardcore pc gamers. they get no advertising and no casual gamers will ever here of them. Amnesia rings a bell. A shame, because it truly does deserve more attention. Only a handful of PC games (like diablo) get it.antifanboyftw
Your statement has some truth but ignorance does not discredit anything. Sadly, with so many people in the world caught in "mainstream", hype, add focused, friend peer pressure gaming, they have lost base to actually finding games they personally really enjoy.. PC gaming really gives those who have love for many genre's and gaming in general a place to enjoy games without being told what you must buy. It use to be like that on consoles as well but this last generation people have really stretched out that mindset for the masses.
The great thing is that PC gaming does not need that type of hype too still have games sell well or have developers release great games for it. You don't have to be a "hardcore" anything to find great games. A gamer just has to dissolve off his ignorance and do a little research for himself and he will find countless games to enjoy. That goes for all platforms.

Better lineup is pretty much different from person to person. There is no way to prove yes or no. The big thing is that Pc is still getting many of said multiplats coming this year to go with a massive list of exclusives for the platform. I would personally go to say it has a better lineup on that analysis. To each his own though.

Essentially you are arguing games 360/PS3 have over PC; are more desirable than games PC has over 360/PS3, while sticking the line-up of two platforms up against one to make that difference in games appear bigger...
Excuse me if I don't relate to your argument.

I am essentially saying that if you put ALL the games in the ps3 line up (Exclusives and multiplats) againstALL the games in the pc line up (exclusive and multiplats). You will find the ps3 to have more games in its line up. because pc has more exclusives but not as many multiplat.if a person choses between ONE of the consoles and a pc as the only way to game. One of the consoles will see more releases in the next year regardless of multiplat or exclusives than the pc.
is that clear enough?

Hmm... Something Seems VERY off on numbers then... Maybe you can get some clarification.. Outside the list stated earlier (70+ games), on the multiplatform side of the Pc you have:
Sorry if i'm missing one or two
I don't see this list + the massive list of exclusives being lower then the ps3 exlcusives and multiplatforms this year.

If we combine all the games for each platform, exclusive and none exclusives, PC ends up with more games than PS3.
I do realize these are only the games that GameSpot have reviewed, and hence won't include the entire exclusive line-up. This however is the case of all platforms, arguably in the advantage of consoles; given PC's entire line-up is immeasurable when compared to closed platforms.
There's over 60 exclusives there coming this year for the PC, and that's not counting all indie games. Now add the multiplatforms coming also.Lucianuanyone can make a long list filled with filler.

And? What do you classify as filler? What does that statement have to do with anything? Very confused what this even means or where your going with such a simple statement like that.
