Microsoft has done timed exclusivity before and it killed everyones buzz for Bioshock on the Playstation. Its pretty sound in strategy but screwed up at the same time. At least we know with Sony and SF that Sony is funding the game. MS isn't doing the same. Tomb Raider 2 was planned out the second the first game dropped.


Microsoft is helping to fund development of Rise of the Tomb Raider. There are articles from the game's developers basically saying that Microsoft brought in additional talent to help with development of the game.  They could have easily screwed gamers on other platforms like what Sony did when the original Tomb Raider 2 when it became a PS1 exclusive but they  chose not to.
