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

I wonder how many million $ MS payed to Square Enix for that. And how long it will be exclusive. My guess would be 6 month timed exclusivity until a better and more complete version arrives for PS4.

Bloodborne is Sony Game. stop already with this bullshit.

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?

i dont care about the console. i always bought every system for the games i wanted to play.

gears of war is one of my favorite franchises. i bought xb360 for it.



”The environment where PlayStation wins is best for this industry” (Jack Tretton, 2009)

Been reading through the comments...and MS's MONEYHATTING is NOT the same as what Sony has been doing with "No Man's Sky", "Bloodborne", or any other property! Sony helps DEVELOP NEW games, Microsoft simply pays to LIMIT EXISTING games! If anyone ever wonders why some of us are so anti-Xbox, anti-Microsoft...well, it's this crap right here! The sooner the Xbox fails (and it IS failing, exclusive Tomb Raider won't save it), the sooner bullshit paid exclusivity deals die with it!

This isn't "salty fanboy tears" here, this is me calling bullshit on a bullshit business practice!

Oh, and Squeenix? You can FORGET about me buying your game, even WHEN (not IF) it comes to the PS4. I will buy "Uncharted" instead. You want to play games with your customers? FINE. Then we can play too. RIP "Tomb Raider".

Alright well, I can understand maybe some don't have enough cash to buy all consoles and if so then yes I'm sure this is frustrating.

But its business. That's just the way it works, unfortunately at the end of the day it isn't always about making the consumer happy.

I'm unbelivably salty right now. But I totally understand it, and frankly I don't have to like it, but I'm buying it anyway...eventually.

Edit: Cause Unlike Bayonetta, I actually wanted this from E3 trailer.

I don't much care what system it's own, my concern lies with the very real possibility of SE pulling the plug on crystal dynamics when it ultimately sells below expectation.

A deal was done to make a PS4 exclusive game

Here, a deal was done to keep a multiplat game from being multiplat.


I still cant find anything official from Square Enix, Crystal Dynamics or Sony that actually says this was a PlayStation game after it was first revealed. You got me anything official?

And I can understand that. My only beef is with the people screaming about how MS is a terrible company for doing this. Will the reaction be the same when Sony announces?

I'm curious. Very curious.

Just listed my TR copy and artbook on ebay
Still haven't decided if i'll do the same with the comics or if i'll just burn them or put them in the trash


lol

i feel dirty for buying TR:DE

Good thing I sold my PS3 TR copy the other day.



Good move on their part, bad on SE.

Ill buy it on X1 unless rumors of early PS4 2016 release persist.
