I'm not surprised, I'm totally lovin' this game.

Great game indeed, however this little line of info is wrong :

FH3 is also the second-highest exclusive in terms of sales for the year, beaten only by Naughty Dog’s Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.

Uncharted 4 is the only exclusive since FH3 is also available on Windows 10.

Might not be an XBOX exclusive, but it's still a Microsoft exclusive.

Might not be an XBOX exclusive, but it's still a Microsoft exclusive.

So by that logic if Microsoft would buy out Sony next year then suddenly every game would be an exclusive? IMO exclusive means unique to a single platform no matter what company owns said platform.

In terms of physical copies, FH3 is indeed an XB1 exclusive. That's what the chart is covering, so it's technically correct.

"Exclusive" generally means "You can't get it on the other console".

"Exclusive" generally means "You can't get it on the other console".

That would imply a game supported by Windows PC and PS4 is an exclusive title, which doesn't sit right imo - They run on platforms provided by different companies.

Ok, you sir do have a point.

Only you....

Not the others here!

It doesn't sit right, but it's what most publishers are doing.

On a related note, an "Ultimate Edition" would include everything, right? Not in Forza games it doesn't
