To those that dont understand, is it really that difficult to understand that they decide not to invest on a port for a console with a 4m userbase?

I think people forget that sometimes.


That argument fails because they invested in a Wii U version. X1 has generally done a better job at moving 3rd party software.


Has 6 million userbase though. Probably a cheaper port based on the later gen versions.

I've looked at some walkthrough gameplay of this title and quite frankly it looks awful.

I'm not sure what went wrong along the way when making the X1 version. But maybe they aren't making a serious effort to get this on X1 because of the poor quality.

If Activision cancels more noteworthy games, then I'll be worried.

To bad, welcome to Amazing Spiderman-Chartz 2

This isn't true



Microsoft's parity clause is not just about technical issues. Timing is also MS's bread and butter.

What if....

The developers failed to bring ASM2 Xbox One version within reasonable length of PS4 version. All they probably needed was a bit more dev time, but longer than Activision is willing to wait to release this game. MS's parity requires day and date release, they would want the entire game held for when the XBO version is ready. They couldn't come to agreement on this, not so close to release of the game, so it was scrapped all together.

MS is very strict about these rule sets as they are in place to keep them for being the short handed ones. They actively work against having done to them what they did to PS3 all gen long.

Once again, I'm saying its more likely something went wrong along the way on the X1 port.

The userbase argument doesn't hold water considering numerous 3rd party games have performed significantly better on X1.
