Tomb Bomber: Rise of the Bomber.
Ms and SE must be really happy. Wonder what will happen to this franchise after this.

I'm stil holding out for PC and PS4 releases. Depending on what SE does with the PS4 release sales could still be really good IMO. The game got a 87 metacritic, now add an extra year of development to polish things and a possible GOTY Edition for the PS4 release and you could have a 90+ metacritic game, that alone will sell a bunch of copies. Then if possible SE could partner up with Sony for a holiday bundle, a Limited Edition PS4 with a GOTY Edition could do very well.

But yeah, I hope for SE that Microsoft paid a big amount and I doubt they'll do this ever again unless they have no other option.



Hopefully the PC and PS4 releases help out TR somewhat cause at this rate this franchise is doomed!

Doubtful. This game was doomed to be overshadowed and it has. It's  hard to compete with Fallout 4 hype, along with Black Ops 3 just a few days prior. The game would have stood a better chance releasing outside of the holidays.

Well I agreed that the game is good infact i also enjoy playing the reboot and looking forward to playing this game on pc. I also hope the pc and ps4 release will help TR sales so this franchise wont go to waste. But as you said it depends on what will SE does with PS4 release. It might sells ton of copies but it might also flop on PS4. I just wish SE learned they lesson not to release it alongside those mega franchise to maximize its full sale potential.

I guess RoTR sales in context:

US Xb one install base is >4:1 vs UK Xb one install base.

US RoTR sales is <3:1 vs UK game sales.

US attach rate for ROTR is a lot lower than UK.

In comparison Xb one FO4 USA sales is ~5:1 vs UK sales. So USA attach rate is much better than in the UK.

Damn, Fallout 4 seems really close on both systems.



Yokai Watch out of the top 75, I didn´t expect that to be honest D:



First time I looked at this chart I didn't even notice tomb raider was releasing this week. this is an example of a big exclusive deal that makes no sense for anybody. All it did was piss 80% of the fans off who are on pc and Playstation m



Ouch Tomb Raider sale.... (exclusives never paid off for the gamer)

Exclusives between microsoft and sony, are beyond a joke, they are like two kids arguing over a toy.
