Shadowrun as a FPS so they could do something like auto-aim for console to balance things out but this is RTS! There should be some really serious balance issues since PC users have: 1.Mouse 2.Hotkeys and Keyboard.

"LOL ROFL THE XBOX GOT ANOTHER EXSCLUSIVE, LOL, the ps3 is so last gen it can't even do cross platform gaming."

If its on pc its not exclusive you really need to know the definition of "exclusive". if its on pc it saves people from buyin a x360 to play a game if its on both platforms. so everyone obviously has a pc so dont
need a x360 to play it. so its not another x360 exclusive. ok, or do i need to make it more clearer for you ?

EDIT: @ odion :

it still might be a MS game but it still isnt a x360 exclusive it makes it a MS game exclusive. ITS NOT ONLY ON X360 SO ITS NOT A X360 EXCLUSIVE. do u get it now or you still dont understand ?

@ boink :
yes that is what im trying to say. and most people have a pc good enough to play these games that are on both x360 and pc (shadow run,Universe at War etc.) so my point was that its not a x360 exclusive and it is very easy for a lot of people to play these games without having to buy a x360.

4.1 - you're absolutely right

But when it's says "Xbox 360 only" it doesn't count on the PC. Except for Lost Planet. :P

Incorrect. This is definitely a 360 exclusive. Unlike the people on this site, most people dont buy pc games. Is this game coming out for ps3 or wii. No. If I walk into a store and see universe at war for 360 but not on ps3 or wii then it is exclusive. Why? Because I as are most people are not some extremely rich person or some nerd who has no life who dumps thousands of dollars into a pc just to play a video game.

If I looked up hypocrite in the dictionary, I think your face would be there. I love when some gamers will call out others for being nerdy or having no life. FYI, your posting on a game website...some would consider that nerdy enough. As far as your whole PC = Nerdy theory, every one has PC's, they generally cost $500 to $700 for one with decent capabilities, so why not throw in a few extra hundred dollars to make it a gaming PC? If you already have a computer it might cost you less than a new PS3 or 360 to give it good gaming capabilities. Also who said being a geek was a bad thing?

6 - Finally a new game

Rooted_Dust , I think he probably meant a "Hardcore PC Enthusiast". Yes most of us are geeks on here. I would expect, everyone to have a Decent computer, since we log on here most of the time. Of course a big difference between a "Good Gaming Rig" as oppose to one that can barley run todays games. A decent Rig will run about $1500.

Anyhow this game look like that movie "War of the Worlds", good movie by the way. So they have tried an FPS with mixed elements and now an RTS, can't wait for a MMO, if it can be done right. I game mostly on consoles so it is Exclusive to me and plenty. Only fanboys will boycott the 360, and buy for the PC. I rather buy it for the 360 anyways, because of my RIG, right now I cannot enjoy any game on a PC the way it was meant to be enjoyed. "MAXED OUT", At least I know the 360 will be pushed, without me needing an UPGRADE.
