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 would anyone be angry about this? It's just stupidity. It would have been a waste for Sony to spend a dime on this, and it won't be missed.

Oh damn. There is definitely a Taken GIF to be made about this.

Whilst I know what point you're trying to make, you realize how that movie ended right?

Using your anology, Square Enix busts in, and screws Sony just as they try to screw Microsoft.

Kind of a weird choice for a third party exclusive, but maybe the hardware effect will be enough to offset whatever MS paid for it. I doubt software sales will be sufficient for MS or SE honestly, but this could convert a decent number of PS fans. SE probably got more shafted than they know from this deal, but that's on them.

This is interesting... I saw this on Neogaf:



It says Microsoft Studios. But now look at the Xbox official Gamescom website and scroll down to "Coming to 2015"

Might've been a typo, might've been something they wanted to remove immediately... but worth taking a look.

Does anyone have a link with an SE/Crystal Dynamics official saying that the game was coming to PS4. I honestly cant find any.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Already corrected, game is not published by MS, was a listing mistake.

Well some people are fans, and are kind of angry that they have to spend 400 dollars to play the next entry, because they thought that it would be avaliable on the most popular platform, but they will begrudgingly buy an XB1 to play it, Even if it turns out to suck. But it will be done!
