Because the really good xbox exclusives end up hitting the PC. So eliminate Halo 3, Bioshock, and probably Mass Effect sooner or later. And if a 360 game is also on PC or at least we know it will be (Halo 2 now on PC) then its not worth our timing buying it on 360.

I love it how cows become PC gamers just to "spite" the 360...

Dude, dead rising sucked. Honest to god, this is how I feel.

ANyway, there's a page on wikipedia dedicated to PS3, 360, and wii exclusives....the 360 one doesn't even have PC/360 games, and it's still fairly big;

I love how every cow "magically" has an amazing PC all of a sudden to play all of these games. Also, I've heard that Mass Effect won't be going to the PC. Have fun waiting three years to play Halo 3. :)

I don't have a PC huh? Right.

Hiding behind a PC? Well, If I can afford a PS3, then I can afford a PC. The point of the thread is that a 360 in the "long run" is a waste of money when all its "hit" exclusives hit the PC 1 to 2 years later. I have a valid point.

I don't need a PC to hide behind either, my PS3 is bas@ss enough to have fun with. And if you look at the 2007 games coming, the PS3 looks more impressive in the graphics department already.

Most big PS hits don't hit the PC. Killzone 2 won't, Metal Gear 4 won't, Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, Lair, Heavenly Sword. All PS3 only.

The good 360 games eventually do end up on the PC, but since I don't have a high end gaming computer that doesn't matter at all to me. Plus I doubt that most of us have a computer to run the PC version of Gears of War as good aswhat was shown with that high of a frame rate.

All the PS3 exclusives are probably coming to the 360. I like the TC, can provide no proof, but apparently in this thread you don't have to.

Fact is fact lemmings. It doesn't matter who delivers the message. A cow, a sheep, a lemmings, a hermit, George W. Bush, whoever. Its all the same.

A lot of the top 360 games, because of popularity and the possibility of money gained, go to PC. Fact. When it goes to PC, its no longer exclusive to the 360. Fact.

Does it hurt the 360? Maybe, I don't know until I see sales. Does it allow people to play these games without ever having to spend $1 on anything 360? yes.

So what your saying is that our current list of exclusive might be going to PC because they are so good. That doesn't say much about the PS3's exclusives does it.

I agree, most of the 360 games aren't even exclusives. I keep an open mind about systems but the PC has what the 360 does covered.

True, but the PCs you need to play Bioshock, GEARS or UT3 will cost you $2k+. And im talking 1680+ res with 4AA/16AF. It really doesnt hurt the 360, because it usually comes out on 360 first.

MS wins both ways

(1) you play those games on the 360, MS gains since you've bought one of their machines and they get royalty off of every game sold or rented (hell they take all the money if it's a game they developed and published on their own)...PLUS, if said game has online then chances are you're playing it on XBL, which again means more dough for MS

(2) most people play the PC versions of those games on windows, which again means money in MS's pocket, plus if the game was developed and published by MS (like Halo for the PC), again, MS makes money

Such deep analyisis. So if Halo 3 goes to the PC in 2010, it is not an exclusive for now? Not sure what you are rambling on about, but enjoy!

Pc's are a joke for playing games on, no local multi, pay lots to be able to play at minimum reqs and have to wait a few years just to play the 360's number 1 title. Tell me why i would want to wait for the exclusives to hit pc...

That's not what I'm saying at all. Who owns Windows? Who owns Xbox? Who would stand to make the most money if a game went from 360 to PC? Who makes the decision to put games on windows?

Its all about MS and all about MS money. Pretty easy to see that it has nothbiong to do with how good the game is in the whole gaming world. Just how good it does on 360. Get a clue and quit trying to twist words.

True, but the PCs you need to play Bioshock, GEARS or UT3 will cost you $2k+. And im talking 1680+ res with 4AA/16AF. It really doesnt hurt the 360, because it usually comes out on 360 first.

dracolich666

Show me a specifications list for Bioshock, Gears, or UT3. Show me where you have to buy this equipment in order to play.

Also, just because they come out on 360 first doesn't mean when it goes to PC that it won't hurt them. Does it not hurt PS3 or 360 when a game is released for the competition's console? Even when its a timed exclusive?

You cows are all about graphics right? You dont need it to play, but you will need atleast a 7900GTX/X1900XT to run those games well, and thats @ 1280x1024, any higher you will need my card or a 8800series card. You can quote me on that, ive been PC gaming for about 10 years now, every year is the same, new games WILL push these DX10 cards.

Timed exclusives dont sell consoles. So it doesnt hurt, what hurts is sales of games like halo 1/2 on PC (i had halo 1 on PC and I LOVED IT, looked great in DX9) :D

I can do that and I could care less about Halo 3 (I assume that is what you are talking about) being a microsoft game the fact is people will be able to play it without a Xbox 360 on a system that is not exclusive to Microsoft, before you go on telling me that MS owns XP/Vista they are software and consoles are hardware therefore when we talk about a system we are talking about the hardware which is in no way exclusive to microsoft.

Who's talking about timed exclusives and how they well consoles. We're talking about how timed exclusives sells software to specific buyers who are looking to play on specific machines. How if some are on the fence on which console to buy, and own a PC, they may not worry about buying a 360 just to play a game that they can play on PC.

Until it isn't offically announced that its pc/360, then its exclusive. Stop pretending 360 games sucks, way better than your library.

True, but if your PC sux, it would be better to play it on a console, and ALOT cheaper. Unless you "need" a huge 1080p TV, then well they are about on par. :D

I can do that and I could care less about Halo 3 (I assume that is what you are talking about) being a microsoft game the fact is people will be able to play it without a Xbox 360 on a system that is not exclusive to Microsoft, before you go on telling me that MS owns XP/Vista they are software and consoles are hardware therefore when we talk about a system we are talking about the hardware which is in no way exclusive to microsoft.

Just to make a point...when MS releases Halo 3...the people that say oh well i dont need a 360 ill just wait 3 years until it comes on PC...prrrobably arent gonna get a 360 either way or dont care about Halo that much...so it doesnt hurt anybody

Timed exclusives dont sell consoles. So it doesnt hurt, what hurts is sales of games like halo 1/2 on PC (i had halo 1 on PC and I LOVED IT, looked great in DX9) :D dubvisions

Who's talking about timed exclusives and how they well consoles. We're talking about how timed exclusives sells software to specific buyers who are looking to play on specific machines. How if some are on the fence on which console to buy, and own a PC, they may not worry about buying a 360 just to play a game that they can play on PC.

Those sort of people don't really own gaming rigs or at least they are not the same sort of gamer as me. I can't see how a hermit can laugh at the fact that Halo 3 or GeoW are coming to the PC eventually. If you where that much of a gamer, you'd buy a 360 and play them when they first come out.

It's like someone waiting for Gears to come out on platinum before buying it. You'll still love the SP, but no one will be playing the MP and if they are they will be a lot better than you.

By the time Gears comes out for the PC, the game will of been played to death by the majority of avid gamers, with only those who missed the boat playing. Lemmings will be onto the next best thing, which at the moment is looking like Halo 3 or we'll be playing crysis on outr gaming PC rigs.

Pc's are a joke for playing games on, no local multi, pay lots to be able to play at minimum reqs and have to wait a few years just to play the 360's number 1 title. Tell me why i would want to wait for the exclusives to hit pc...

[QUOTE="Ragashahs"][QUOTE="SgtWhiskeyjack"]All the PS3 exclusives are probably coming to the 360. I like the TC, can provide no proof, but apparently in this thread you don't have to.SgtWhiskeyjack
besides DMC4 can you tell me a major exclusive that PS3 lost?

VF5, Fatal Inertia and Unreal Tournament. 3 for starters. Can you tell me when Mass Effect going to PC was announced?

VF5 no big deal same with fatal inertia and UT3 was never exclusive. 360? gears to PC and halo 3 and Mass effect will come to PC face the facts MS wasnts all the money they can get so the make the them games for windows. and yes they haven't been announced but come on do you really think they won't come to PC?

Because the really good xbox exclusives end up hitting the PC. So eliminate Halo 3, Bioshock, and probably Mass Effect sooner or later. And if a 360 game is also on PC or at least we know it will be (Halo 2 now on PC) then its not worth our timing buying it on 360.

You fail to mention that not everyone on these boards, and sure as hell not inthe world does not play on PC. Consoles are mainstream, PC's are not, so therefore this topic is useless.

Fact is fact lemmings. It doesn't matter who delivers the message. A cow, a sheep, a lemmings, a hermit, George W. Bush, whoever. Its all the same.

A lot of the top 360 games, because of popularity and the possibility of money gained, go to PC. Fact. When it goes to PC, its no longer exclusive to the 360. Fact.

Does it hurt the 360? Maybe, I don't know until I see sales. Does it allow people to play these games without ever having to spend $1 on anything 360? yes.

dubvisions

It does not matter in sales, 360 destroys in software sales, especially third party which are multiplats. What was it 18 to 0 on both the wii and Ps3 on Top 10 charts for Third Party? I think so!
