...Don't you mean console exclusives are what keep the gaming industry going, and multi-platform games are the cancer of the gaming industry?
Without exclusives, all the consoles are exactly the same. Thus, the only differences are things like online. Therefore, everyone is going to choose the console more people play, as that is the console the one their friends would be using online, and, boom, before you know it,
monopoly.
Edit: Okay, maybe the example with online was terrible, but my point still stands that, without exclusives and competition, the game industry would either be A) a monopoly and/or B) much more terrible due to the lack of competition between console companies.
