Tomb Raider II.

Here's is the thing, this is Practically MS's MO, they only have 2 major first parties, one of which they bought recently in Gears. maybe the investors have an issue with inhousse 1st party dev or something.

Regardless, Xbox is at 10% hp right now and this is their limit break, Buy all the games, I personally hate it but I loved the trailer more than I hate this so if I see some gameplay and I like it then well, +1 XB1. obviously their are better ways, that can get more people, but MS wants ppl to buy Xb1's nao, in 2015, and why risk a new franchise when they can at least get .17 million sales assured hopefully. Crystal Dynamics doesn't have to worry about selling cause MS is paying them.

Exclusivity always screws over consumers, but at least with exclusive franchies like Mario, Halo(not counting 1), and Uncharted you know where to get it. Making a 3rd party exclusive a multiplat makes the original fans a bit salty but its still pretty good, but making a multiplat an exclusive, like this is really just a dick move. Even if they ignored last gen thats like 16 mill ppl + pc, and then 176 mill with last gen.

Pre Orders weren't opened yet as a company yet, so I'm thinking someone even higher than me had some knowledge of this.

But if you guys want something I can give you this. Uncharted 4 is for sure 2015. Nothing huge I know and we pretty much all assumed it but I got a date for it.

Bloodborne is Sony Game. stop already with this bullshit.

Being developed by a 3rd party studio - From Software

But Bloodborne is unknown, this is essentially what happened with Bayonetta, but TR is a much bigger game. So the butthurt is going to be even more massive.

Expect it.

And a first party studio; Sony Japan.

Well, I think the biggest thing with BloodBorne is that it's funded by Sony Japan, right? As in they paid for the development and own the IP?

This TR type of moneyhat seems to be a game that's already funded, already in development, and already coming to as many platforms as make sense (to try to recoup the investment in development). The funds in this case are simply used to compensate the company for NOT getting sales on competing platforms.

IOW : it's money spent to keep the game away from gamers, not to pay for the game to be developed in the first place.

Microsoft is paying for Gears to be developed, I'm great with that. Same with Halo, Killer Instinct, and others. That's wonderful.

Paying for multiplatform 3rd party titles simply NOT to appear on other platforms is a dick move, plain and simple. And in this case, it's even more puzzling, because TR is a terribly weak franchise.

Lol

So me keeping a level head and simply being a gamer and buying everything is bullshit.

You guys who care about these pieces of plastic are so bizarre to me. Honestly. Do you guys even enjoy the hobby? Like do you people play games for enjoyment or do you simply do this so you can argue with each other over the internet about pieces of plastic and code?

Well...erm...I'll have them. Saves burning them I suppose, better for the environment as well.
