Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Rise of the Tomb Raider Timed Exclusive for Xbox

I think this could turn out to be good news. The last game sucked so hopefully by concentrating on one platform they can put effort into the story/gameplay side. Shame it won't be on pc though. The first one looked good so at least it had that going for it.

Well, on last gen it was 2.2m against 1.7m so the difference is not *that* big, I think.

When the userbases were equal...Now PS4 is completely dominating One. It's completely different.


But this is changing the argument and not what was about in the actual discussion.

Sorry, what? No. It's still a franchise that has always been associated with PS. This gen the difference would've been way greater. Hopefully MS' money helps SE sleep at night over the lost sales.

Really? You mean to tell me that millions of hearts crushed isn't worth anything? That's like priceless, bro.

When those hearts are the ones buying your games, it's a stupid move.


Ohh, you thought I was referring to SE being happy about crushing hearts? Ohh no, M$ and the beat up fans that have been constantly bashed for the past year are happy for this and its worth more than money. M$ just did this for the lulz.

Just announced at the Microsoft gamescom conference! 

Dear Tomb Raider Community,

As you may have seen, we’ve just announced that Rise of the Tomb Raider, coming Holiday 2015, is exclusively on Xbox. We consider all of you to be the lifeblood of Tomb Raider and the work we do at Crystal. I’d like to give you some insight into this decision, and why we feel this is the very best thing for the Tomb Raider sequel we’re creating at the studio.

Tomb Raider in 2013 was a success due in large part to your continued support. Our goal has always been to deliver something truly special with Rise of the Tomb Raider. Today’s announcement with Microsoft is one step to help us put Tomb Raider on top of action adventure gaming. Our friends at Microsoft have always seen huge potential in Tomb Raider and have believed in our vision since our first unveil with them on their stage at E3 2011. We know they will get behind this game more than any support we have had from them in the past - we believe this will be a step to really forging the Tomb Raider brand as one of the biggest in gaming, with the help, belief and backing of a major partner like Microsoft.

This doesn’t mean that we’re walking away from our fans who only play on PlayStation or on PC. Those are great systems, with great partners, and amazing communities. We have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris coming to those platforms this December, and Tomb Raider: The Definitive Edition is available on PS4.

We know that there are probably many more questions and concerns. Please do send them to us, and we’ll answer to the best of our ability. Meanwhile we’re going all out to try and make something truly special - the most ambitious Tomb Raider game ever built.

Thanks,

Darrell Gallagher
Crystal Dynamics Head of Studios


Dear Crystal Sellouts!

Keep your game and enjoy the loss of sales which you'll be regretting sooner rather than later. Instead I'll be playing Uncharted 4!

Cheerio!

Lots of unhappy people here.

I didn’t see a bunch of people cancel their PS+ and sell their PS4s to show Sony that Moneyhatting exclusive content for their system via a White PS4 and Destiny content. You can’t have it both ways. Either you accept that companies make deals with publishers or you don’t. If you don’t want to accept it, sell your XB1 or PS4 and go PC only. If you do accept it, quit complaining or saying you’ll never buy their games again. If you’re such a big gaming fan, you’ll find a way to own both consoles and get any game or content that you want.


Oh, so announcing a game for a platform and then cancelling it and making it exclusive to the competing platform is the same as getting exclusive skins and weapons. Lol

Yes

No...

One is taking something away that changes NOTHING for xbox owners. The other is giving PS owners something additional that has been known about right from the start

All this time Xbox gamers have been given middle finger by Japanese devs.
TR exclusivity is a nice change of pace to show Japanese gamers that they can game Japanese games on Xbox.


LOL  Like Star Ocean the last hope, Tales of Vesperia, The Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery, Magna Carta 2, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata. Seriously?   Sounds like you play a lot of games from Japanese devs...



As a PC gamer first and formost, I am outraged!
