If Halo 5 is not getting delayed, which I wouldn't expect to see happen, then this is feasible. The holidays are so busy already with big multiplats that dropping this mid-tier game in that midst is just asking to get run over. Gamers only have so much money, so ROTR is pretty likely to be a game that many just skip and wait to get on sale later on if they try to cram it out during a crowded release time.

Remember Sunset Overdrive? That's another solid exclusive that had terrible sales because it got murdered by a slew of multiplats, even if arguably SO was better than most or all of the major games that released in the same window.

There is a certain art that must be mastered with releasing games. Movie studios are much wiser overall about this, as releasing the wrong kind of movie at the wrong time spells disaster, and so does going up against really big guns. If you think I'm kidding just look it up. Whenever Avatar 2 comes out for example, watch other movies avoid releasing on that same week (or maybe even the week after as well). The holiday multiplat storm is much like that. You don't want to release same time as :

COD
AC
Madden
FIFA (depending on region)
Batman
etc

i think Halo will be the Microsoft game that gets the delayed.



If Black Tusk hadn't publicly denied Gears collection, i'd bet both QB and ROTR were only released in 2016, without much of a doubt.
Without it...still possible. Halo 5 + Forza 6 just by themselves isn't bad, considering how things are looking for the competition.

Yeah I don't see it coming in 2015 either, game just sounds like it's too early in development for that. ROTR and QB in 2016. Halo 5 and F6 in 2015.



The deal will prevent a delay! More than likely, it's better for Capcom to release an unfinished game which honors their contract, then re-release/add content/patch it for the PS4 release if it is in an unfinished state.



Heck, delay everything! 2015 can be 2014 2.0

Yeah and even QB already had some gameplay footage, and Crystal is still not ready to show some gameplay footage? Definitly hard to believe onless the game will be very short compare to the previous one

Tomb Raider takes a lot of inspiration from Uncharted and other recet games so i'm inclined to say maybe.

If Ms delays a game that will be Quantum Break not Rise Of The Tomb Raider.

Capcom isn't making the game though.
