Ive been looking all over the Internet for about 5 minutes, and I can find no actual announcement of the game being announced for PlayStation platforms.

Anyone have a link from around E3 for me? I cant find anything.

so i expect the same reaction when sony announces some 3rd party exclusive

cant wait to see this game in action

A 3rd party exclusive that was previously confirmed for Xbox, sure. Imagine the backlash if they announced Destiny was now only on Playstation

Destiny is a much much bigger game though. 

It's the same scenario though. Expect TR is already an established franchise on PC and PS.

People who are angry about it should not be angry at MS or SE but angry at sony (if you want it on PS4).. Everybody of use knew that TR did not well enough for SE even when the game sold millions. I am sure if Sony went to SE and invested some money it would be have been an exclusive game for PS4....Could have been one for Wii U aswell but MS did it...

Why are so many people pissed about it's exclusivity?
I thought Xbox needed more exclusives to warrant a purchase?

You don't see how making a PS franchise not available on PS (or PC...) would get people pissed. Put yourself in their shoes

I've definitely been in their shoes countless of times. but people told me to suck it up and buy the platform that franchise is moving to.

Found the prefect quote here:

Instead of investing this money in a great first-party title, Microsoft is paying off Square Enix to not release Tomb Raider on other consoles


Who says they didn't do both? How do you know now what they are doing with their budget? And how does this change for MS? It's an exclusive. 1st or 3rd, where is the difference for Xbone customers?

First... I don't care much about this. Have the 2013 tomb raider game but still didn't find the time to play it.

Now... @bold, how is this different for Xbox customers? That is a great question... Where is the difference? Xbox players will play the same game as envisioned for this sequel... What will xbox customers win with this? Xbox customers should be sad about this, money was spend to bring nothing new, just the same they would get as a multiplatform.

And yet you were still pissed. And now you ask why people are pissed? Wat
