I'm sure a bunch of people are going to rag on me for posting this but i needed to get it off my chest. I absolutely hate it every time I see the phrase "exclusively for _____" substitute any system name, but they all do it. When I bought my first xbox, i felt all special because no one else really had one yet and because all these games were going to be exclusive to the system. To me, thats like saying thank you choosing my console for your purchase (even though I own them all) and here's a reward just for you because you are an xbox gamer. Amazingly though I can barely think of two games that stay on one platform (with exceptions to like mario series and stuff). The reason I even bring this up is because I was reading about mass effect and sure enough it says its going to be an xbox 360 exclusive, but we all know if its any good its going to get ported out to the PC or PS3. Obviously I can't blame our friendly console producing companies for this, but rather the blame falls squarely on the shoulders of the developers and publishers. Its not that much of a big deal to other people i know, but to me its like saying "this is just for you because your so important to us as a loyal gamer(then they turn their heads and snicker, give it a year and I'll have it ported on every system)" I realize that they're in the business of video games and its just that, a business that needs to make money to make more video games to make more money. Am I wrong for feeling a little betrayed when do something like this?

imo there shouldnt be any exclusives except of course 1st party titles....it is about the money... thats why i doubt any game that comes out for all systems will be that muich better then the other versions... for me exclusives dont matter since i always get all the systems... i might feel differently about them if i only had 1 but oh well

On that theory, then there really isn't much of a difference between owning each console besides obvious things (cost, hardware, multiplayer function design...etc). So then why not just buy one console and sit it out?

the entertainement industry is ran by money, we supprt them through the games, acessories, and consoles we buy.  having an "exclusive" is just a money making scheme, them saying it is only coming to the 360 will have 360 owners drooling everytime a new screenshot comes out, or vid.  Then a few months after it is release...omg the dev changed thier mind and it is now coming on the PS3/Wii/Whatever.  Just watch the money move.

But my question is this, does anyone else feel like this is a little disloyal, I understand the money aspect. I'm accountant in the hospitality industry and understand this ideaology better than most about making more money by doing these little things, but something else that they instilled in me is customer loyalty and appreciation. Where is the appreciation let alone the loyalty towards us as gamers.

what loyalty do these publishers owe u? now if halo 3 was released for the ps3 then yea id understand where ya coming from but... titles like assasins creed and what not... those developers dont owe any loyalty... if anything, if they want to be loyal to their customers they should release all their titles on all platforms...

You felt special because you had an xbox first? hmm ok compensating for something? You sound special without one. Your problem is you don't get concept of an exclusive title. It doesn't mean this game will never hit another system ever it means its being made for only one system atm. Regardless if its ported 1 year or 5 years later. It was made for that system and you got to play it months ahead of everyone else. i.e there is no way Halo would sell as much 3 years later on than it would the first year regardless what system its placed on.

People are inpatient, graphics date even a 6 month exclusive is huge. Think of the word exclusive sort of like a warranty, it doesnt mean it'll last forever but for the time being you have service. And please realize PC is not involved in Console Wars and Bioware of all companies IS exclusive with Xbox. Even IF you wanted to consider the PC part of the race, realize that PC/Xbox is ran by the same company thus making them the same. If a game came out for PS1 and PS2 would you think it wasnt exclusive?

The loyalty that they owe us is that they have jobs at all and that they drive they're nice BMWs to work. I understand what ur saying about them really being loyal by releasing it on other platformers, but if you remember the original premise on the exclusives, prime example being halo, is that you would have to buy an xbox to come and enjoy the experience and become part of the xbox family.

You know what, I love this trend.  Heck, maybe they'll improve the game or fix bugs when they decide to port  I mean look at Ninja Gaiden (lol) finally getting ported to PS3 with tons of new bells and whisles.

In the end, you the consumer has more options.  And yes, options are a good thing.  Instead of having to buy 3 consoles for awesome exclusive titles all I have to do is wait.  Eventually it'll come to the 360 or vice versa and when they do decide to port, it'll be a pleasant surprise for me. 

I have no idea why everyone gets steamed about it.  You're saving money nitwits!

[insert 3 letter abbreviation to remind users that my opinion is coming from me and not representative of fact] Loyalty my a$$. Loyalty to a video game console. Loyal to a brand. Loyal to a product of a multi=billionaire philanthropist. I know who cares, but I don't know why? Is there some reason that loyalty should play a factor into video gaming? If they want to turn a profit then let them have a profit. Most of these games being talked about are over an average of 8.0 in terms of quality, which last I checked the ratings scale was a "good". The devs made a good game, wouldn't they like a good profit? So what about exclusives? Usually nothing is truly ever going to be exclusive. I can possibly name a few 20 year old "exclusive" games right that are ported now if I wanted to waste more time in this post of mine. I'm sick of games that are "exclusive". Just sick of the "exclusive label" that everyones so proud about. OOOh, I gots more exclusives at the moment than you.... If you don't like my ideas fine then. Go exclude yourself. Then everybody will love you from a distance, then when you're no longer the flavor of the month and are not exclusive. You're a port, and a game like Oblivion falls into the same category as "Harry Potter: And the [magical person] spell of [mythical creature]" and spongebob squarepants.

And if the PS2 had newer hardware like the original Xbox it would have probaby been on it too. The PS3 and 360 are more alike this round

Because suddently most games are coming on both consoles, very few exclusives, I'm regreting getting both a PS3 and 360, in the end they feel like the same device, just different case.

I consider an Xbox 'exclusive' an Xbox/PC exclusive each time, as its Microsoft- if the Xbox version makes money, they'll port it to Windows to get even more. Examples: Halo, Halo 2, Fable, and some others.

ok im sorry but i think it can count as an exclusive even if it goes to the pc. atleast for me since i only use my laptop for school, music, emails, aim, and porn and all my games are console so im pretty sure that certain companies will be stubborn and stay exclusive. MGS4 i think will only be PS3 kojimi hasnt done something like this before.

How many more exclusives do you need at this stage of each consoles life span? Please find something better to complain about, or actually find the facts. There are plenty of exclusives. Now I realize some of these may be later changed into multiplatform games. But if you look at it, they all have certian titles that'll nevercrossover.

Sony has FF and Metal Gear

Xbox has Halo and GoW

Nintendo has mario....(it used to have FF but Sony pwnt nintendo for it).

I don't consider 360 gamesgoing to pc a loss of exclusives, mass effect is published by microsoft as is halo, gears, crackdown, viva pinata, and many more.. as for 3rd party publishers, why should they cut off potential revenue. IT makes no business sense. It's hard to believe that no one gets that. What is the advantage of publishing a game on a exclusive console with no financial rewards....as a 360 I'm happy to see more ps3 exclusives hoping the fence, but I'm not seeing the opposite trend as much and as i said pc doesn't count int he console market.

Dude u must be retarded because several of those games have already been announced to be multiconsoled and not to mention how many of those games predecessors were multi consoled. They'll all be mutli consoled. and to clarifiy, i dont so much have a problem with games being ported to the PC as much as I do to the PS3 or Wii. I own all three, but am still an xbox loyalist. Good day to you sir, i think i will go attempt to fly using pizza boxes crafted into large bird-like wings!

Dude you must be retarded to make a post whinning about this. Yeah, most third party games will go to multiplatform. That was a list from the link I gave you, so don't blame me for discrepencies in it. Just realize, corporations screw people over, and money will prevail over your indiffrences. Third party publishers will go for the more money.

I think we're missing what intial gripe was about, if the developers tell you that its a console exclusive then they shouldnt turn around and say well we now decided that we'll release them for every console. I'm not developers should should only make games for on console, but if you say "a game" is exclusive to that system then thats how it should be. Whats the advantage of one console over another if they keep making exclusives until they change their mind and make "the game formally known as an exclusive".

Well some do and some don't. But alot of Ps3 titles are selling out to Xbox and Xbox generally keeps it's titles, I think it's cause Bill Gates is a little more scary than Japanese people.

I really believe that Bill Gates is the most powerful man in the world. I fear his wraith so I acknowledge his greatness.

Fanboys need to stop and take a chill pill! Barely nothing is exclusive anymore unless it's a first party title. It just makes me laugh when 6yr. olds go Ha-Ha we get this game and you don't, then a few months later BAMM! You just made yourself look like a donkey.

Every great, rich and powerful man falls hard in front of the hands of God. This my people is called lust and greed for power and money!

How is being rich lust? Unless he's screwing the eye holes outta benjamin fanklin? And we're not your people. Bill Gates isn't greedy, he has enough money, I doubt he really cares how much anymore. He's a buisness man who knows the value of his products. If he was greedy we'd be looking at 600 dollar 360s

I don't argue with little under age children, sorry! Only an adult would understand the terminology of this statement, apparently you are not one of them!

I personally don't care for exclusivity. I tend to eventually have all the consoles, and I like being able to make an informed descision about which platform I want to buy a particular game for. When you think about it, people's console loyalties tend to center less around the actual hardware, and more on the talent that the company can court into exclusivity deals. If you're a Squeenix fan, you tend to like Playstation, even though you would probably switch your hardware allegiences in a second should the next big Final Fantasy come out on another platform. I like Bungie and Bioware a lot, so I consider myself primarily an Xbox guy. The system wars are really all about the developers, not the systems... the developers could make their games on any console. (Not ALWAYS true, but you get my meaning.)

I only think exluses should be made by the company like, microsoft studios. Unless they're released at the same time, they are exlusive. Since otherwise, you're going to be waiting up to a year to get the game. Only thing i get bugged about, is when say oblivion came out on the 360, now its coming out on the PS3 with expansions such as NotN which is the only thing that ticks me off.
