If a game is announced for 360 and PC, isn't that still ownage to the PS3 because they don't get to play it? Or is it assumed that every PS3 owner has a gaming quality PC? How does that work on system wars?

Its multiplat, just like any PS3/360 game. An exclusive means its on 1 platform.

Not really, because MLB 09 on PS3 is a vastly different game than the PS2 MLB 09 and PSP MLB 09.

So going by that logic, Dreamcast games are Microsoft exclusive as well because Dreamcast used windows?

They are not exclusive to the system.

Just like logic, really, if a game is on multiple platforms, it's considered "Multi platform" Doesn't matter who does or doesn't get to play it, it's multi-platform regardless, and therefore, can not be listed on an exclusive list. No MS, or console exclusive exists in System Wars.

Who are you to speak for every PS3 owner? I have a PS3 and a gaming PC... Though the PC has seen better days (Somethings quite wrong with it) all it needs is a little TLC and it'll be back up and playing Xbox 360 games in no time :P Games are only exclusive if they aren't multiPLATFORM. PC counts as a platform of its own, in fact, its probably the best platform for a few genres (Shooters, RTS, and even some RPG's/Racing games) If the PC doesn't count, then what is Crysis? does that game simply not exist? How can something be a PC exclusive, but if its on the PC and something else, that game instantly belongs to whatever else it is on? That isn't fair at all. I guess PC games can only be exclusive when the Lemmings say so, right?

Just avoid calling them exclusives. No one can deny they're a deffinite plus point for the 360.

Not exclusive; however if they go to the PS3 the became exclusive for a short time allowing for 'ownage', it is a interesting little thing here in system wars.

People don't think of them as exclusives, but I wonder about games that are Mac/PC games being PC exclusives or not, I'm not much of a PC gamer, so I'm just curious.

It just seems silly because there will be 360/PC AAAE's that dont count as exclusives, so PS3 fans will "technically win and have more AAAE's" when really the whole basis of that argument is actually that PS3 + PC is better than 360 since they're saying "well, PS3 has more AAA's assuming you have a gaming PC".

Who are you to speak for every PS3 owner? I have a PS3 and a gaming PC... Though the PC has seen better days (Somethings quite wrong with it) all it needs is a little TLC and it'll be back up and playing Xbox 360 games in no time :P Games are only exclusive if they aren't multiPLATFORM. PC counts as a platform of its own, in fact, its probably the best platform for a few genres (Shooters, RTS, and even some RPG's/Racing games) If the PC doesn't count, then what is Crysis? does that game simply not exist? How can something be a PC exclusive, but if its on the PC and something else, that game instantly belongs to whatever else it is on? That isn't fair at all. I guess PC games can only be exclusive when the Lemmings say so, right?

Right. And i'm shure every cow has a gaming pc....

How come cows claim mlb 09 is exclusive then?????

PC counts. I love my gaming rig. what is Crysis? probably the best FPS ever. I dont speak for every ps3 owner.

Just the ones i Know ;P.

Maybe it is because MLB09 the Show for PS3 is not the same game as the PS2 version, which isn't the same game as the PSP version.

It's not silly. It's logical. If a game is on multiple systems, it's a multi-platform title. Why do Lemmings have such trouble grasping this? Multi-platform titles simply don't count in Exclusive comparison lists, regardless.

Microsoft doesn't receive any money off PC Game sales, unless it is a Microsoft Published game. IE. Microsoft Flight Simulator.

You can only consider a 360/PC game exclusive if you have trouble understanding the meaning of the word 'exclusive'.

Scenario: Wii has 10 AAAE's, PS3 has 5 AAAE's, 360 has 5 AAAE's, and there are 10 AAA's that are for PS3/360. You claim that in this situation, Wii would be the best system to own? That's not logic, that's silly. It's silly to ignore the fact that a 360/PC game is not available for PS3 when attacking the PS3 because it is a game that PC and 360 owners get to play and PS3 owners do not.

Are PS3 owners not allowed to own PCs? By buying a PC, they can play an "xbox 360" game without actually owning an xbox 360, therefore making it not exclusive.

It is still ownage: "more multiplats ownage" just like people say that to Wii when they forget about Wii's exclusives.

However, not of the same scale as system exclusives.

Not if you already have a gaming PC (which more people do than any next-gen console).

In that case, the Wii or the PS3 are by far, the most logical choices in terms of library.

It's silly to ignore the fact that a 360/PC game is not available for PS3 when attacking the PS3 because it is a game that PC and 360 owners get to play and PS3 owners do not.death919

Nobody seeks to ignore these games. They simply try to stress they AREN'T exclusives.

No, because if you had a vastly inferior PC, you wouldn't meet the system requirements. Also, it goes beyond just graphics. If you actually played MLB 09 the show, you would know that PS3 version has modes that the PS2 and PSP version doesn't have. It also uses a different engine with incorporated ball physics and different AI protocols.

The simple fact is, they're on multiple platforms, therefore multi platform. The scenario you created is irrelevant when comparing a consoles exclusives. It's not hard to comprehend. The simple fact is, nobody is limited by one system, so if someone wanted to see the benefit of a system, they'd look at titles they simply can not play anywhere else, first. I really tire of people trying to "reinvent the wheel" in System Wars any time something that would benefit their "side" comes rolling around.
