Yeah I have it on 360.Fantastic game.I think the sequel Rayman Legends is a Wii U exclusive so maybe that's why you thought Origins was a Wii exclusive

Nah, I am just a n00b.
I'm having a really hard time knowing the different exclusives, mainly 'cause I don't care

The PC is great for strategy generally, the sort of games consoles can't handle due to the pad controls and disk space/memory/graphics power issues. Total war, Supreme Commander that sort of thing.

I think PC games still generally hold their ground on strategy games purely because the games suit the control style of a mouse and keyboard, if they ever master controls of strategy games in consoles with a hand controller i would imagine those fast overflowing into the console market.

Also Supreme Commander is also on Xbox360

True, however you can buy a game on one disk that will run on Linux, Windows or Mac, whilst you can't do that for Xbox, PS3 and Wii. With a PS3/Xbox/Wii you'd have to buy the disk for that platform, whilst with a PC game you buy the PC disk and if you have a Mac PC [And the game is compatible], you can run it on that, or if you have a Windows PC it'll run on that, and rarely if you have a Linux machine and its compatible it'll run on that. Now Windows Disk, Mac Disk and Linux disk for the same game.
They're the same platform, just different specializations IMO, with Windows being the closest to a dedicated gaming platform, though hopefully that'll swap to Linux soon. Windows keeps looking worse and worse IMO, and Mac... I'm not going to go there.

Im happy to conceed to rope them all together under the general personal computer option as they are closer related than different console brands (Playstation/Xbox/Nintendo) but i would just like to point out:

You can buy a game for windows on disc and run it on a Mac/Linux etc. with some kind of modification, emulation or manipulation of files or OS, but you cant just purchase a game of Mac insert it into a PC and press install and have it instantly work. (there are a few rare exceptions but as the years go this is more and more rare) I could equally get my PC to emulate an Xbox and use it to run xbox games, but that doesnt make it equal to an xbox, as standard they are seperate systems. Its only through manipulation and modification (which is one of the strengths of Computer gaming) that allows this.

There are some clever people (these kind of peoples technical genius amazes me) who can do this to consoles as well to make them think they are different consoles but that doesnt make people rope the consoles together as one system. Windows(Microsoft) and Apple are very much seperate brands with windows very much being the dominate one in terms of gaming. (Apples mobile gaming being yet another seperate system.)

I could go on about branding and the greyness of it all with microsoft owning both windows and xbox and yet being different brands while nintendo wii and 3DS being totally different hardware and software and yet being considered one brand, but i would only go massively off topic and bore people.

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

PS3:

Metal Gear Solid 4
Little Big Planet
Ratchet & Clank
Infamous
Valkyria Chronicles

Xbox 360:

Halo series
Gears of War series
Euhm, Shadow Complex? Comic Jumper? 'Splosion Man? Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet? They're the only other exclusives I have.

PC:

Black Mesa
Civilization V
My laptop is pretty good, but not enough to play most current titles, so this is all I got for any recent games (i.e. released in the last 4 years). If I include older games, you can scrap Civ V and add Thief 2, Planescape Torment, System Shock 2 and Outcast instead.
