Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Phil Spencer: "Tomb Raider Deal Still Same as Before...Timed"




       

Around the Network

Yes, another thread about news from August 2014.

By now, it would be poetic justice for the game to get delayed to 2016.



I wonder who took it upon himself to dig up this Xbox Australia tweet yesterday (or whenever this whole thing started), some Xbox fan(boy) hoping for the game to be a full exclusive so he can brag about it I guess or some PS/PC fan(boy) worried that the game wouldn't come to his platform so that he wouldn't be able to rub it in the Xbox fans' faces?



A lot of XBox fans will be ashamed for their recent behavior.

I don't mean you guys, VGchartz's users are among the best, trust me.



I wonder what could have happened to the initial 1 million units launch for the XB1 if Don Mattrick actually had the decency of saying that their lineup's exclusivity was mostly timed.

With that being said, Phil Spencer is probably the best PR in the industry right now.

Will the soap opera finally end when the game is out on all platforms?

No, because by then there will be another timed exclusive to complain about.

with the ridiculously high rate of game delays i had the same thought a lot over the last six months.  

 

 

OT - this is the part of spencer i really like.  relativly low on the bullshit. not zero, it is his job to promote xbox so it is part of the job.  but as and industry average he is well below.

But that's a different soap opera with a different plot, might be more interesting.



People got excited and many got angry when they thought its Xbox full exclusive. Jay, even you renamed the empire thread thinking its full exclusive. The reaction from the community was a sight to see.
