Fixed, and I agree

Maybe. But I'm just going based off his Dead Rising 3 comment still. That's why I'll stick with PC in 2016 for now.

Hope MS paid them enough to offset killing the franchise after such a successful reboot.

Why didn’t Microsoft, Square Enix or Crystal Dynamics say upfront it was a timed exclusive? Why all the indirect language?

We certainly didn’t intend to cause any confusion with the announcement. The Microsoft Gamescom stage was a great place to make the initial announcement, but not necessarily to go into details

Erm, so why did they then put out and obviously reactive press release which actually added to the confusion rather than clear things up? They must have known it would cause a shit storm and they should have known sustaining the myth of total exclusivity couldn't be sustained for more than a week.

It was obvious since spencer couldnt say " it's not coming on PS4 " or " it will stay microsoft exclusive", no, he had to use other words because he knows he cant say that since he look silly when it comes to PS4 because it's up to Square Enix to take this decision

PS4: 17m XB1: 10m WiiU: 10m Vita: 10m

They said the same deal is in place that they have for Dead Rising 3. That's why I'm skeptical of the PS4 release and thinking it will only hit PC . Hopefully im wrong though cause it would be nice for all to play it
