Roy Taylor, Nvidia's VP of content business development, reckons the days of PC exclusive are numbered, and he's not afraid to say it.

"I think we have to face the facts - the value of consoles is such that no-one is going to make a PC-exclusive game in the future. Why would they? Why would they ignore consoles?" he told Eurogamer.

"That said, PC gaming is changing - and consoles don't threaten PC gaming. They're just different. Adapting to that and understanding that is what I think is really, really important.

"Most PC gamers also own consoles - not all of them, but a lot of them. What we're seeing happen is that, yes, people are developing for Xbox 360, for PS3 - but they're also developing for PC."

Lots more through the link, including why quad-core processors are rubbish.
