Question for anyone that can be bothered ansering me:
In mid-2010 I got an x360 (since I couldn't afford to renew my gaming pc at the time) and I've been playing on that almost exclusively for the past 3 years.
Now I finally got a semi-decent laptop (Geforce GT 750m, core i7, 8gb ram) and I want to check out all the PC exclusives I've missed in the past 3 years.
So please list here what you think are the best pc games I've missed, anything goes (indie games more than welcome) as long as:
-They aren't strategy/simultaor games (find them boring)
-They don't exist on the 360
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Every game you played on the Xbox that you could have played on a PC, because
On a more serious note:
Arma 3
Battlefield 3/4 (Yes, I find them to be PC exclusive )
Terraria (EDIT: oops, not PC exclusive, gonna let it stay on the list though)
Faster than light
Hotline Miami
Magicka
Minecraft (Is it possible to enjoy this with a gamepad? )
Dota 2
DayZ Mod (Had it's glory days in march/may 2012, don't know how it is now, I'm sure you can find good servers and improved mods of this. )
There are so many good PC games I want to write down, but I'm surprised how few of them are PC exclusive. Or how few PC exclusive games there are in general
Antichamber: the best/most unique first person puzzle (you know.. Portal-like) indie game there is. Highly recommended.
Q.U.B.E.: ...the second best
The Stanley Parable: a very unique experience that is also VERY funny
Dear Esther: who said you can't use a 3D engine to tell a story?

You're absent from PC gaming for 3 years and go for a laptop with a GT 750m ?
No wonder console-players can't see why we are the master-race.
I've been playing alternately on both PCs and consoles since the glorious days of Apogee software and 80286 processors and the NES, and one thing I know for sure is that I never lost my sleep over not being able to run a game a super-duper-max resolutionzzzz or not being able to run it at 3548573 frames per second.
Also, and more importantly, I need the laptop for my work. Gaming is just an added bonus. I know there are professional gaming laptops out there, but they're all 2000+€ for something decent, and I don't have that kind of money to spend on gaming, otherwise I would have just bought a high end desktop with enough to spare to buy both next gen consoles...
Back IT:
Dear Eshter, Outlast and Antichamber all look very intriguing, will surely check out.
I tried Magicka on my old pc, but it was the most buggy game I had ever played... did they fix it? Is it playable at this point?
More stuff that I'm 100% sure that your laptop will be able to handle:
Volgarr the Viking: basically a 2D Dark Souls. You'll suffer. A lot.
Gunpoint: 2D stealth game with many different gadgets and approaches, short but very well made
Gone Home: interactive adventure (in 3D), more like an "experience", but extremely enjoyable
Giana Sisters: hardcore platforming, 100% old school
The Swapper: one of the most atmospheric puzzle games released recently
Botanicula: charming adventure game from the makers of Machinarium, short but fun
Gemini Rue: Blade Runner in awesome pixelsauce
To the Moon: you'll cry a lot
The Binding of Isaac: simply one of the best recent 2D roguelike games
Papers, Please: I don't know if it's too 'strategic' for you, but it's definitely unique..and pretty fun
Path of Exile: if you're looking for a Diablo clone, only better, then it's your choice (T2 is also great like mentioned above, Van Helsing is good too). It's F2P.
Doom I and II with the Brutal Doom mod: a must play
Gas Guzzlers Extreme: pretty good arcade racing game with guns
Then there are all the multiplatform games that got ported like Guacamelee, Mark of the Ninja, Trine 1/2, Rochard and many others that I can't remember, but definitely worth to be played.
edit:
In case you need some good online F2P games, you can try Tribes Ascend, War Thunder and Planetside 2 (although it's performance-heavy to say the least at the moment).
Chivalry is great too, not free, but quite cheap during the sales.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
