Yeah it's really funny, isn't it. The one calling me a baby/kid indirectly repeatedly and doesn't want to make a simple forum bet due to not getting anything "worthwhile" in return if he wins...
Don't reply to me with a counterclaim if you're not willing to back up and stand by your claims. It makes you look silly

Such comments are unnacceptable so just report them.

Except that there is nothing to report.

There would be, if I cared enough (but I don't)

It´s not like Microsoft put a gun in Square/CD president´s head to close the deal.

It was a bussiness decision. Money was exchanged and contracts were assingned.

So? It was a stupid business decision then.

How do you know? You know how much money microsoft gave SE? But what do I know? I guess a bunch of people on online gaming forums MUST know better then a multi-billion dollar corporation!

Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

MS moneyhats T

Wasn't Dark Souls created in the first place because Sony wouldn't allow Demon's Souls outside Ps3?

Sony owned the IP, why would they allow it?

Then why you'd say "lets other people continue to play Dark Souls"?

If they owned the IP as well, they wouldn't have allowed it. They won't allow 360 and PC fanbase to play Bloodborne outside Ps4.

This reminds me of the big middle finger Capcom gave Playstation fans all those years ago when it pulled the well established Resident Evil series from the Playstation to give exclusivity to Nintendo via the Gamecube.

Perplexing decision, really. I expect the Xbox One to establish much better sales by then but it is still a franchise that has been heavily associated with the PS brand. They have to understand that no matter what the Xbox One install base is by that time that sales are going to suffer tremendously.

Not sure what executive thought this was a good idea. Good get for Microsoft, though. I just would temper expectations as far as sales go that is for sure.

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

Yeah, I see the numbers last gen were really not all that far apart. I was talking more historical significance I suppose. Tomb Raider has just been on the Playstation forever at this point so it will seem sort of odd to have it exclusive to another console. I enjoyed the remake but have never been a huge fan so it makes little difference to me. And who knows, I may find a reason to have an Xbox One by that point. I have previously always had two different consoles until now. It is just always a little odd for me when whatever long-standing franchise suddenly moves to another console like this. It is business and it will not be the last time we see this sort of thing.

Well, in some way you are right but Tomb Raider was not really "tied" to PS. Yes, PS systems all got the main games but they were also always on PC and other platforms, too. IIRC it was never exclusive to PS. But yes, it is more tied to PS than Xbox. This might change now, perhaps ;)

They Ported the 2013 tomb raider to the PS4 and Xbox One where the PS4 trounced the Xbox One version.

Square Enix took money to not put the game on the PS4. Even if they are a business they are also screwing over the majority of their loyal fans.
