However, MS really doesn't have any alternatives because they have no real counters, with the exception of Halo 5 which is probably going to have to counter all of the PS4s exclusives at this point. Personally, I think timed exclusivity is a terrible reason to get a console ESPECIALLY with this embargo buggy release bullshit as of late, why in the hell would you want to get a game first is beyond me. So I guess its a biggish deal, but I doubt it will have very much payout. To be honest, I'd rather Square get burned for this, and honestly, it doesn't really hurt MS in any way so I'm actually for it. If SE wants to take EA's title from Ubisoft, be my guest. |
The recent reboot isn't comparable to the Tomb Raider series of old. I think it's fair to call it a Uncharted rip-off with a Lara Croft twist, It's actually why the game is so good because of the similar Uncharted element to the game. That's why I was so surprise with the game on the weekend it so much better then I expected.
It's like comparing the Dark Knight Trilogy to the old movies the reboot is so good and doesn't compare to the old movies and hardly take any element from the old movies. Same can be said about the Tomb Raider reboot it doesn't take any of the series roots to influence the modern games. It's not the old fanbase that was supporting this new game.
