The best games at E3 in my opinion? Start with The Old Republic, then move to Crysis 2. Finish up with Civilization 5. Yeah they're all PC staples. But they show a level of polish and grace that has been sorely missing from PC gaming for years. The Old Republic, my pick for game of the show, is insane it's a monstrously well produced MMO that combines Dragon Age style storytelling with the open world questing of World of Warcraft. And every MMO staple system in-between. The Civilization 5 presentation was a perfectly produced snapshot of an experienced development house tuning their best work.

But it's not just about PC exclusives. There are, at best, just a couple of console exclusives that aren't available on PC. But everything else absolutely everything else incredible games like Deus Ex, XCOM, and Call of Duty, will arrive on our platform, with better, smoother graphics, smarter online support, for lower cost, and playable at your convenience on as many machines as you own through digital download platforms. PC gaming's victory seems like a no brainer.
