Playing it now. It's fantastic so far. After 5 minute install, it let me play. Then it asked for an update that took about five mins. Then, it gave me a "bad read" error twice.

If you get it, go ahead and let the game install entirely before playing. After that, prepare yourself for the spectacular.

Sony did it in the past so many times. I can't blame Microsoft for doing it, but its not like i like it. But, business is business. This is not the state, its companies. You have no rights and they laugh at principles (look at all those shady/overpriced DLC deals). 

I have never seen Sony pay to delay a game on another system,but this is about TR and I don't want to make this Sony vs MS and their money hat deals.My issue is with Square who made the decision,but some people just had to defend MS as if their life depended on it.Ayway I was only going to make that one comment until some defenders threw on the cape.A deal is a deal,but we all have the right to criticise it.Only sheep would just ignore it.


During the PS1 years they done it multiple times.

Wipeout, Tomb raider 2, Resident Evil 2... just off the top of my head.

You have bo proof of any of that and  keep seeing things like this posted with no evidence to prove it.Why would they bother to pay for games that will sell better on their platform anyway? Especially when the PSX had more than 50% market share and it had nothing to do with any of the games mentioned. Sony owns Wipeout BTW, so that game was never going to nother platform. There is no proof of Sony paying for any third party game to be delayed on another platform like MS has don RoTR period.

Wasn't Wipeout on N64 (answer: yes)?

I can't prove it right now but I have an issue of EGM where Microsoft was talking about the upcoming Xbox console.  I reread it a couple of years ago. They said a lot of stuff about the industry but one thing that stood out was them saying they weren't able to get every game they wanted due to Sony moneyhats buy they were able to get most of what they wanted for launch.

Remind me on Saturday and I'll dig it up for you. It was either the issue with the all green cover or the "Xbox vs Gamecube" issue.
