I suppose. I don't really agree that a delay in release makes it an exclusive, but it's a matter of opinion. But I think an important point is that the console release isn't inferior to the PC version in any important way (as far as I can remember), unlike, for example, Unreal Tournament on the PS2 (which was a great port, don't get me wrong, but it lacked many of the options of the PC version, plus of course it didn't support mods, whereas the PC version was host to countless fan-made mods, some of them superb), or a very bad console port of a PC FPS (I can't think of any offhand, but no doubt they do exist)/
But for that to be true, the console version of F.E.A.R. 1 would have to be inferior to the PC version in a way that the console version made necessary simply because it was on the XBox 360 or PS3. But from what I remember, there was no difference (I played the first game on both PC and 360, and I can't remember any differences, though granted it's been a long time since they played them, and I can't recall if I completed the PC version, as I did the 360 version).
It's true that a mouse is faster and more precise than a joypad (though the difference is nowhere near big enough to make console FPSs unplayable, though these do tend to be built around control by a joypad), and a PC version of the game potentially offers higher resolution/higher resolution/higher frame-rate (though that is all dependant on it being a good PC version, since PC ports can sometimes be terrible, though since modern consoles now allow full post-release game patching, the bug-tested standard of day one release games is getting lower on consoles too), but my point is that PC elitists act like that first person shooters can only truly be enjoyed on the PC, and that PC FPSs are somehow objectively vastly superior to console games. I'd cite Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Timesplitters 2, and Timesplitters: Future Perfect as as good as any FPS on the PC, but as you say, that's subjective opinion.

I would make a joke about how email spam filters weren't as good back in the day, but that just seems to be a low hanging fruit.

Discussing the FPS genre with regards to PC and consoles is relatively on-topic, considering how many FPS games are on the 360. Some, like DOOM 3: BFG Edition, play similarly on the PC and the 360. But I won't try to argue with you, as much as I could use some more pointless conversations in my life.
You're joking, correct?

Sonic 06 was my first 360 game. 2 months later, the console red ringed.
So many memories.

I beat it, too. However I got past this nonsense:
I don't remember and I don't want to, either.

What a great system it (was) is:
Highlights: RR6, GoW(s), DoA4, Halo 3, PGR3, Dead Rising, Assassin's Creed 1 & 2, Lost Planet, Burnout Revenge, Bioshock, Kameo...
Not So Good: Vociferating pre-pubertal bellends on XBL, 3 Rrods, 4 different systems, that's it

Definitely had some great titles Rise of a Ninja, I was able to download Ninja Gaiden Black on there, had a few mutiplats, the indie games weren't too bad on there either.

Sounds to me more like the console couldn't bear to suffer any longer and took its own life.

If the Red Ring of Death hadn't existed, I think that the Xbox 360 would have sold many more millions of units.
A lot of people, especially in the early days of the 7th gen heard terrible stories of the reliability of the Xbox 360.
Still to this day I hear people say this : "I know that the Xbox 360 has good games, but at least the PS3 won't break after a few months"
People don't easily forget things like the RROD.
