games ON a console and FOR a console #71

Although not the perfect rating algorithm, going to metacritic. and the top scoring console games of all time, 6 out of the top 20 games of all time ON the PS4 are console exclusives and only a single out of the top 20 games FOR Xbox One . task_015 new_doc id = a5b56ce5-e05b-d41a-155e-d4cfb0ff376c sent_id = 2

We had trouble reconciling the fact that this ON and FOR seem to mean very similar things in context, but we would be inclined toward very different annotations for each in isolation. Tentatively, we said Instrument~Locus for ON ("games [played] on the PS4"), and Purpose for FOR ("games for [the purpose of playing] Xbox One"?). There was also an argument for something more like Circumstance, at least for ON.

Are the games stored on the PS4 (in memory)? In that sense they could be plain Locus.

"games FOR Xbox One" feels like #70. It's highlighting the games that are applicable to Xbox One as opposed to other consoles.
