Mr.Playstation on 23 July 2015

Well that was announced earlier than expected. From a business perspective, it seems kind of stupid, I guess. I'm happy though and I can't wait for more info about the PS4 version of the game.

What I do believe was unexpected was to have them sharing this info at this point to the game release.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

And i was just talking about someone in denial just yesterday

But that sucks, it is really a pathetic move from Microsoft, its that Kind of deal that make me sick about them, instead of making réal exclusive , they préfèr to prevent a big game to go on an other platform for 1 year to artificially fill thé end of thé year with a false exclusive

Micro is relentless with their exclusivity deals. They didn't even forgive their Xbox360 with the release of Titanfall.


Thats zxactly why m'y 360 went from m'y primary console to m'y secondary console when i discovered ps3.

I thought they would have learnt from their mistakes and use that 3 years of almost nothing on 360 to dévelop a ton of exclusives for One to not do this shot anymore but it seems i was wrong, it is even worse



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

You do realize that Sony did the same thing with Street Fighter V, but not timed, right? *sigh*


Of course he does, which makes his "denial" comment ironic to say the least.

Not at all, if it was thé same, it would be obviously timed, SF V is " exclusive " ( on PC , no lie about that ) for 2 reason : Microsoft didnt accept cross play with PC + Capcom needed a real co partnership , someone to fund the game like they said, so this is more a bayonetta 2 situation , they made it very clear

I do not see how this announcement helps the Time Exclusivity?!

This confuses me.

Excuse my ignorance, is It just a timed exclusive for Microsoft? and will there be a future PS4 version. Not long bought a PS4, and loved the last Tomb raider game.


Spencer already said the dead will be like dead rising 3 and ryse that means you won't see it on ps4 

I am sorry, but this thread.

1. PC-XB1 crossplay is now a thing with Windows 10.

2. MS didn't just buy Rise of the Tomb Raider timed exclusivity, they've helped with it's development, much like Sony is helping with Street Fighter V's development.

Define "help" in both situations. It is a broad term as you can help with development through various means, either through covering development costs or having your own employees collaborate with the developers.
