I posted a thread in which i said to use a new term "Semi Exclusive".Most of you disagreed because that term was in more favour for 360 than ps3 or wii.Here is the thread in which I told you about Semi Exclusive http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26683983
And here is the article in which IGN used word SEMI EXCLUSIVE
" This is the doing, of course, of Star Ocean: The Last Hope. The Square Enixsemi-exclusive gave the 360 another rarity: top placement in the software charts. The game sold 162,232 units in its first week -- nearly better than the rest of the top five combined. "

There is "timed exclusive" or "console exclusive", "semi exclusive" sounds so unprofessional.

And IGN's credibility is now in the toilet.

Exclusive has and will always mean "one platform only."

Chances that Star Oean the last hope could come to the PS3 in the Future Could be Very HIGH!,But we live in the Present so SO4 remains Exclusive to the 360:)

That's my point.
IGN's blunder aside, TC should've realized that oversight before making a ridiculous legitimacy claim for a term that contradicts itself.

Ok, I dont care if SO4 will or will not come to anyother platform, but my point is that there exists the term Semi Exclusive which was denied by most of ps3 fans.Like Left 4 dead is a semi exclusive xbox 360 game

Semi-exclusive means it's half way exclusive which I guess means it's on two consoles which means it's not exclusive?

Your term is pretty bad, and contradicts itself completely.

You're either exclusive, or you're timed exclusive meaning it comes out for one way before another. There's no semi-exclusive.

"Exclusive" implies that the game, or anything, is only available to one entity, whether that be permanent or temporary. Left 4 dead is not "exclusive" to anything. It is on both PC and 360. Gets your fact straight please.

That's because those weren't built from the ground up with us in mind :| Console ports generally suck, as PC ports usually don't transition well from PC to consoles.

But PC gamers cannot play most of the games (except RPGs AND strategy games) which cohsole gamers can play. There is no SF4 on PC, similarly MGS4,TEKKEN 6 etc. Okay forget it, we are taking this thread to wrong direction.Let me rejoice because IGN used my coined term !!!!!

I wasn't talking about console exclusives though, I was talking about the term semi exclusive, often times games that are 360 and PC only, see the PC version being drastically better (imo) in more than just graphics.

GRAW on the PC didn't look or play as good as the 360 version.
