Did jaws not drop for the Tomb Raider exclusivity announcement?


I think hearts dropped more.

I think exclusivity was announced at Gamescom not E3. A teaser was shown for E3 on Microsoft's stage.

They did, but a lot of people don't have faith in that franchise these days. Though it is coming back BIG! The Tomb Raider reboot was phenomenal and pushed the series into new heights and renewed interest to the franchise. It has a lot of life ahead of it. Though it didn't quite generate the backlash across the internet like Bayonetta 2 generated. At least as far as I can recall, I could be wrong. Also Bloodborne also generated a lot of heat though Tomb Raider being a more accessible game had a lot more of an impact. I think we may start seeing more 3rd party exclusives this generation. There are pleanty of good ones coming out for all platforms that are looking fantastic!

I do love Phil, still not buying an XB1 (pointless when I have a PS4 and PC) but my god that guy puts a smile on my face.

He's dethroned Reggie as the best boss IMHO. But that's more because Nintendo is in such a tailspin these days that no amount of body-readying can help.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Dark Souls and Dark Souls II had it's fans on Xbox 360 and had some decent sales. Believe it or not a lot of people were bummed out that Bloodborne was not coming to the Xbox One. On that note it is also true that these games saw more success on the PlayStation platforms. That doesn't mean it didn't have a fan base on the 360 and PC. Despite it being a smaller fan base, that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist and that there wasn't a backlash within that community.
