You can't call people out like that and its not a Santa hat. Mods don't like when you do that. But you're right, I don't think it will have an effect for a few reasons. 1. I'm presuming MS took the hit for this sales lost on a Playstation 4 release. Why else would the game be exclusive? 2. Its a great game, millions of people will play it on X1 and PS4 eventually. They can also put it on GwG and PS+ to hype the next release. 3. Between financial support from MS, great critical reception, and other platforms coming, this was low risk SE. If Angel of Darkness (Playstation console exclusive) didn't kill Tomb Raider, this certainly won't. |
I was expecting you earlier.... you dissapoint me...
The hit would've been bigger if it was a full exclusive. It never meant to be a full. It was listed for a ps3 and 4 release before the gamescom announcement, the weird wording at gamescom about its exclusivity and obviously then square announcing its later release for pc'n'4. It cost both companies greatly..
And I don't think anyone thinks it'll kill the series. But much like other bad-selling games, it could put the budget for future releases in question, it may have to focus on bitesize 'lara croft' games for a while...who knows..?
