Exactly. Steel Wind's retort puzzles the heck out of me. Someone who's informed about the industry probably knows that the company that makes Windows is also the company that makes the Xbox. The Xbox was conceived as a way to take advantage of folks developing games for Windows, by expanding the market to gamers who prefer to play with a controller in front of their TV's.

Thus, a game that's available only on Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Xbox is, of course, a Microsoft exclusive. The rapport between the two is a feature, not a flaw.
