Do you really think people will buy the Xbox One only to play Rise of the Tomb Raider?

Some people will do, because of just how popular Tomb Raider 2013 is with people.

What Microsoft need to do is really get behind the marketing for the title and hope to God that it will at least distract the mass market from the inevitable Uncharted 4 advertisement juggernaut that Sony will have planned.

I gotta be honest, it didn't do so well on the current gen consoles, especially on the Xbox One. Seeing how many people got angry at Microsoft today, I doubt this game will be a system seller. I admit they did a good job with the Fall 2015 release date, since there will be more consoles sold by then, thus giving a better chance for the game to have decent sales.
