Name the excluisves on your platform of choice that you really didn't care about. Also name the ones that made you a fanboy( the ones that you really enjoy) and why.  Its simple just about everyone hear is a little biast toward one platform some more then others.  Many of the reason why people are bias is because they love certain exclusives. But some of us need to admit just because its exclusive to your platform doesnt make it good.    

I will go first.  Most consider me a cow and I loved

1. God Of War( series)- The best action adventure series in the genre in my opionion. It actually has a good story, great gameplay and the graphics are production values are second to none in the genre. 

2. Uncharted (series)- The standard of TPS , good story , great visuals and a healthy balance of shooting and platforming

3. Killzone (series)- This series gets much hate but i became a fan at KZ2.  Always had great visuals for its time and the Helghast are some of the most interesting villlans in my opionion

4. Infamous( series)- Open world sandbox game with super powers done right.  Not to many games like this and they keep getting better

5. The Last of US- Outstanding story and characters and some of the most brutal combat ive seen this generation.  Amazing title that I hope becomes a franchise.

6. Gran Turismo( series)- Its really the only racing game I play anymore.  The variety of cars and the visuals are always outstanding for there time.  A great and fun racing simulator.

 

 The ones I didnt care about

1. Resistance Fall of Man- Always thought the fiction was stupid and the weapons seemed silly.

2. Ratchet and Clank- Good games but couldnt ever get into them .  Maybe im just old for platformers

3. Little Big Planet-Not bad titles but just didnt appeal to me.

4. Journey- I thought was really boring and I cant believe it won GOTY.

Nintendo:

The Legend of Zelda: Gaming's premier series. Console gaming owes a major debt to Zelda. Link's re[eated adventures in the fabled land of Hyrule have brought us some of gaming's most seminal, memorable, and important moments, and the series continues to move from strength to strength. (Best Game: A Link to the Past)

Pokemon: Synonymous with handheld gaming, Pokemon is one of the rare series that got it right the first time around and hasn't had to change since then. Each new installment augments the depth of the franchise even more, and each new installment is by itself a reason to purchase the newest Nintendo handheld.

Super Smash Bros.: Basically, this series defines local multiplayer fun. Each game is better than the last. Tons of content, incredibly high production value, and it's as easy or hard as you make it. Super Smash Bros. is the rare game that everyone can like and enjoy.

Mario Kart: Like Super Smash Bros., albeit a little less consistent, Mario Kart remains incredibly fun to play and can sell systems all by itself. Incredible track design, sense of speed, and random chaotic fun put it in a class of its own.

Metroid: The thinking man's game, the cerebral, slower paced Metroid games have you actually think about where something fits in the larger game world. For those brought up on this generation's shooters, Metroid won't do much, but for those with an appreciation for game design, Metroid can be paradise.

Donkey Kong: One of the few Nintendo series that haven't yet made the transition to 3D successfully, and are better for it, Donkey Kong is a game that epitomizes expert 2D game design.

Super Mario: The mascot, not just of Nintendo, but of gaming in general, Mario has been at the forefront of gaming innovation. He repeatedly pushes the boundaries and defines what gaming is, time and time again. He might be milked and overused, but a mainline Super Mario platformer will be a tour de force in level design.

Edit: Oh, the ones I don't like.

Kirby: I do like the character and his whimsical charm, but most Kirby games are simply too straightforward and simplistic for me to appreciate; I do like the odd Kirby game, but on the whole, the series doesn't hold a whole lot of appeal for me.

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door was incredible. Literally every other game in this series has been a massive disappointment. 

Wario Ware: The series' premise is simply not something that appeals to me; again, I can see why others appreciate it. I don't.

PC obviously. Lets see here, going off the top of my head:

-Amnesia: The Dark Descent: Its good horror and I'm a sucker for good horror, not much else to say.

-Baldurs Gate 2: The most 'balanced' in terms of combat, character interaction, and story of the infinity engine games. 

-Killing Floor: When I want to kill zombies with some buddies in co-op, this is my game of choice.

-Mount & Blade: Warband - One of the best combat systems in gaming, has a great sandbox singleplayer, and it has one of the most active modding communities out there.

-Neverwinter Nights 2: The best combat in a real time with pause D&D game, plus Mask of the Betrayer is one of the best written stories out there.

-STALKER CoP or SoC: Some of the best atmosphere you can get in an FPS, and they have amazing replay value.

-Torchlight 2: The second best combat in a Diablo style game, and it has an amazing modding community.

Some I didn't like:

-Paradox grand strategy: I understand the appeal here, but I don't have the time/patience to sit down and figure out how to play these things. 

-Spiderweb Software games: Some people absolutely love these games, but I cannot stand any of them. The games are filled to the brim with trash combat, there is a terrible inventory system, and the writing is cringeworthy on everything but Geneforge.

-Arcanum: An actual game with botched real time/turn based hybrid combat system (seriously, youtube a video of the combat).

$10 > 0 one of the reason why the Dreamcast and the Neo Geo died was due to people pirating their games. It hurt the PSP a lot as well.

Well people need to make up their mind. If they want to support the developers they can't violently hate DRM. The developers want DRM badly. And the fact that people are so opposed to emulators is mind boggling. It is about time for consoles have a viable download service. Something with affordable games with more money being shifted the developers way. But I guess that is something exclusive to PC.

I don't necessarily game on the PC for the exclusives.

I just think the PC provides the best experience for virtually every game out there. From having the best graphics to having the best controls to having the most content to having the best online. It basically makes the entire line-up of multiplats only worth playing on the PC for me.

All that in addition to having the most diverse lineup of games, the most variety, and just simply having the most games in general. 17 games released on Steam in the last week. That's NORMAL. It's just disgusting how many games the system gets, and it's a shame people choose to dismiss the platform.

God of War series

Killzone series

Sly Cooper series

Gran Turismo series

Resistance series

Twisted Metal series

SOCOM series

Uncharted - a landmark in story-telling and the most epic and seamless set-pieces in gaming. Its level design wa so good you didn't even notice how linear it actually was (at least on UC2 and 3 since the first one was quite archaic and blocky).

Yakuza - story blew my mind because it was as ridiculously crazy as Metal Gear but in its own way. Setting is so good it actually enhances the enjoyment of the gameplay by making you feel like a badass and this is why you still wouldn't get just by playing a short demo. There is no game quite like this to be honest. This is one of a kind.

Valkyria Chronicles - changed how strategy games are played (just look at X-com which copied most of its concepts!), it was charming and for once the aquarella anime art didn't include a bunch of annoyingly tacky and out of place oversexualized females like you'd see in basically every Japanese game these days like: Atelier, FFXIII, Xillia, Blazblue, etc. just for the sake of it. The other VC games on PsP joyned the party though.

 

The one I hate:

Little Big Planet - this sh*t is boring yo! You can create the best stage ever but the gameplay of this series is so broken I never understood why it was worhy of a 90+ in Metacritic.
