Microsoft Exclusives

There always Sony fanboys trying to claim ownage of just saying why would I get xbox version I'll just get PC verson Claiming they owned Microsoft xbox 360 LOL.

Like 99.9% of all PC games can only Played on Microsoft Windows and most the times Direct X to work right.

So really your still playing on Microsoft operated machines owning nothing.

Yes PC games look better on PC Im not gonna deny that even if MGS4 went on PC it would look better too.

 Example: Halo 2=Xbox=Microsoft Halo 2 PC=Microsoft=Same that includes all othere games too

Microsoft does not get a cut of games that are made for the PC, but they get a cut for games made on the 360.  So games that go on PCs dont help the MS gaming division in the slightest and if their games are bought more on PCs then consoles you will quickly see the end of a MS console.

And as for windows being needed for games, most people who buy a PC that can render a game correctly bought it with Windows bundled in meaning they didnt pay extra for the it.  MS gains nothing from PC games. 

Sony uses Window's based machine for their employees. Buying their products means Sony is expanding, and likely, buying more machine to accomodate their employees.  MS wins in the end.

I guess everything is an MS exclusive, even games on the Sony platform. 

Ok go play  99.9% of the games on Linux or Mac os you can't there only small amout of games that can be played on those OS.

Does't matter if microsoft makes money of Pc games They make money on the Microsoft windows Os you need to play the games.

They make money off Sony products too. Does that make it an MS exclusive?

If its on 360 and the PC its not exclusive to either :| GsSanAndreas

Console Exclusive.

Games for Windows + Xbox = MS exclusives.braydee1234

MS does not profit off of games For Windoes either.....

GFW is just a set of rules that the games have to abide by.  Such as run on Vista, support Widescreen, Run on 64Bit Vista, and so on.

Woah now, we're talking about profit? because I was under the impression we were talking about platforms. As far as I can tell, Windows and Xbox are both MS platforms, as a result: Games for Windows + Xbox= MS exclusive.

Its people like you that make System Wars worth visiting everyday! Thanks for the laugh!

This is like saying that automobiles are 'gasoline exclusive.'

Games are only played on Windows because it's the platform we're forced to use. Cars use gasoline because it's the fuel we're basically forced to use.

I didn't know Ford and GM made money everytime someone filled up at the pump. Microsoft does not get licensing fees from the PC games outside of the ones it publishes.  

Ok go play 99.9% of the games on Linux or Mac os you can't there only small amout of games that can be played on those OS.

Does't matter if microsoft makes money of Pc games They make money on the Microsoft windows Os you need to play the games.

gamer4life85

Most of those people would have the OS even if they didn't play games......

MS owns the PC gaming industry no more than Intel, AMD, ATI, Nvidia, Gigabyte, BFG, etc, etc own the PC gaming industry. They actually lose money for the "Games for Windows" label (they have to PAY the publisher to put that on their game). You fail!

FOR THE LAST TIME, MS DOES NOT OWN PC GAMING!!!!!!!! I've thing I've said this 5 times already today. I am sick of people saying this.trix5817

[QUOTE="GsSanAndreas"]If its on 360 and the PC its not exclusive to either :| JeffGenocideX

Console Exclusive.

This is SYSTEM WARS. If you can say "Console exclusive", than I can also say "PC Exclusive". So I guess Halo and Halo2 are PC exclusives! You see, it goes both ways. 

Games for Windows + Xbox = MS exclusives.braydee1234

No. MS doesn't own any part of the game with their label on it. They have to PAY the company to get the "Games for Windows" label on the publisher's games.

Fact is:
No Windows = No PC gaming *PERIOD*Radiant_Sol

Uhm, if Windows didn't exist, then there would be another operating system to takes it's place. And therefore another platform for PC gaming. Logic works most of the time.

But MS does profit directly from 360 games. Do you understand where I am going with that? MS doesn't control PC gaming, while it does control the 360......use logic, please.

Its not the "Microsoft PC" , just a PC. Its nobody's system, stop complaining.

Go look at your PC, there's probably a little tag there that says "Designed for Windows XP/Vista" or "Built for Windows XP/Vista".It's a Microsoft system dude...Radiant_Sol

I think what people are trying to get at is you may need a graphic card, memory, and all the other hardware to use the PC, but there is no sole company making all the profit. While Microsoft is the the only OS that allows you to play the widest variety of games making it the only OS people will buy (for gaming). You can pick between graphic cards and memory and etc... but some games are exclusive to the windows OS, no game is exclusive to one graphic card, etc...

How any lemming could defend PC games as Microsoft Exclusive is puzzling to me.

It's more detrimental to the Xbox platform than anything else. What's the matter? Can't just accept the term multiplatform and still have enough reasons to claim your ownage over the cows and sheep?

Do ATI, Nvidia, and IBM get a direct profit from the games? Do they have control over the games for consoles? Nope. Does MS get a direct profit from PC games like they do for 360 games? Nope. They don't own PC gaming anymore than Intel does. About 80% of PC's have Intel CPU's inside them, does this mean that they own PC gaming? Nope. Just because MS has their OS on 90% of PC's, doesn't mean they own PC's. They own the OS, ONE PART OF THE PC, and they don't directly profit from PC games. I would bet that ATI and Nvidia profit more from PC gameing more than MS does.

I get ya there. I mean, I AM a Microsoft supporter. Windows is hands down the superior operating system. But when a 'Microsoft Exclusive' happens. The don't get paid for those PC games like they do for the Xbox 360 ones.

As far as console support goes, meh. I'm just now getting into that whole race but have been a long fan of Sony's personal electronics, cinema equipment and displays. I think the Playstation 3 is a great machine for multiple uses, gaming included. It's just not the best gaming machine. The PSP is the answer to my prayers though. MP3s, videos, internet, games.

Nintendo still has to really, really impress me. The DS is just kind of 'meh' for me but I'm warming up to the Wii.

That means nothing though. MS doesn't control PC games, no matter how you put it. They don't make a direct profit like they do off the 360. And OS and system are two totally different things. A PC and a console are systems, while an OS is just part of that system. Developers also have to programm for ATI and Nvidia cards, Intel and AMD CPU's, etc, etc. MS can't say, "if you want to make games for PC's, then you have to give us a share of the profit", while with 360 games, they do just that.  

There always Sony fanboys trying to claim ownage of just saying why would I get xbox version I'll just get PC verson Claiming they owned Microsoft xbox 360 LOL.

Like 99.9% of all PC games can only Played on Microsoft Windows and most the times Direct X to work right.

So really your still playing on Microsoft operated machines owning nothing.

Yes PC games look better on PC Im not gonna deny that even if MGS4 went on PC it would look better too.

gamer4life85

are you like my old history teacher? he used to talk for 10 minutes without stopping and took really loud short breaths in between so he could talk fast and without stopping. 

none of that makes comprehensible sense. 

anyway, what does this have to do with anything anywhere anyhow?

if you don't like sony fanboys, then don't listen to them or say/post something that will make them shut up, like how the xbox 360 is hardwarically superior. (yes it is even though i am a bit of a ps3 supporter, read any recent article that compares the two.)
