Makes sense.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

if 10% of the people that bought the TR reboot buy an X1 for this one then I'd say the deal was pretty effective.

True, but that's not what it implies since the vote includes existing XB1 owners or people who planned to buy one anyway.

Commanet on the forum: "I have an Xbox One, so yes I will buy it. But don't kill me! I enjoy all platforms alike!"

If only 10% of the fans buy the game that's pretty terrible sales overall.

For some reason I doubt there are many Xbox One users on an Eidos forum.

And pray tell me how many people voted on this poll?  There was what 5 million Tomb Raider sales?  I would be suprised if there was 100 unique active users on a tomb raider dedicated forum.  And if this tomb raider forum is some sub forum on ign.com or something like that. You can bet 90% of the vote are not fans but just fanboys of PS4 going around to wherever they can and voting/posting/ect to make the other systems look bad.  

If someone were a big enough tomb raider fan to make an account and be active on a tomb raider website, then chances are they will buy the system to play said game.

Makes sense although basing it on forum polls can be a bit silly cause they can be rigged or have a bias and etc (*looks at vgc polls*)

With that being said, I doubt that many people will buy an x1 for it, specially since most people know its a timed exclusive

I've played all the TR, so i'll buy this one too...if only is going to come on PS4.
I won't surely buy a XBox for a single game.

Well this is not IGN - it's the official TR forum and most of the people posting have been members for a long time.  Members that don't have a longer post history can't vote in that poll, so no I don't think a lot of people signed up to vote and make the other system look bad.

Pretty much only folks who already have an XB1 said they would buy it on XB1.  Maybe 1% said they would buy an XB1 because they have to play TR.  It's just 100 people so take it for what it is.
