I know Halo 3 and Fable 2 will also be coming on the pc. So all you need is a ps3 and pc. PS3 exclusives never get ported to the pc. So any 360 exclusives should be called, "Semi Exclusives" They are always on the pc. I don't understand why 360 fans are proud of their so called exclusive games. None of them are fully exclusive. I know fable 2 is going to get ported to the pc in less than a year from its 360 release. The last fable did. The pc version of fable was 9 times better than the original xbox release. The 360 is just a poor mans pc. A cheap way to get a somewhat decent high grade pc for cheap. Even if it comes with terrible hardware!

Not all of the games go to pc. Banjo 3 is not. Also gears 2 wont go to pc for a while

I'd wait for a port because the port for PC is usually better than its 360 counterpart (but I dont play on max setting so this is a moot point). And it's cheaper, and I dont have to buy a 360.

I'd buy a PS3 because the exclusives usually don't go to the PC, unlike 360 exclusives. Zhuk, please read, he was talking about 360 exclusive. Not multiplat.

Status: offline 		ps3 exclusives never get ported to the 360. DMC4 was never a ps3 exclusive neither was Assassins creed. They just said they were from the start. I mean its ubisoft. The only exclusive they have ever made was Haze. So Assassins creed was bound to be multiplatform. DMC4 was just obviously going to be on the 360, capcom doesn't have any exclusives anymore. MGS4 will never go to the 360. The 360s lineup this year is just BS. Nothing to play except Gears 2, if the bullet lag is fixed So much for that Ninja Gaiden 2 to be anything special. It got a few 8s. Than some mediocre reviews. Ninja Gaiden sigma just killed it. Full 1080p 60fps. Have fun 360 owners with whatever exclusives you have this year.

I don't know about you, but I play multiplatform games also.  Not only that, I am really looking forward to playing Fable 2 and Too Human.

Pretty much.


I wouldn't want to spend thousands on a new PC just to play them so 360 versions for me.
