Exactly. The deal is not console exclusive. I should have said it has nothing to do with this article. But I said "doesn't have everything to do..." because I can understand some of the arguments that it's a small branch of excluding gamer options.

Though, I guess I could argue that what exclusive content is really doing is giving the gamer too many options. We'd like options in our games but we don't want the option of choosing between consoles because one offers more than the other.

That's fair. But it's still unfortunate that you won't get the chance to play with the other character the competing console has exclusive rights to.

The Top Spin 3 issue is exactly the problem like you mentioned. Not having Nadal available in the 360 is a huge issue. We're talking about arguably the second best tennis player in the world.
