Hum, I figured Tomb Raider would do better. Is she not as big as she used to be? Good job tho Fallout.


These days Fallout is bigger.

As another poster said, PS4 sales of the reboot are better than X1 sales. Likewise, PS3 sales of the reboot are better than 360.

Also can't forget that the game has already been announced for PC and PS4 next year, so whatever exclusitivity advantage MS was going to get with the release has been lost somewhat.

I am sure the game will do well but I am sure few ppl expected TR to be the bigger game when it compared straight with Fallout. 

Yeah, it seems like Fallout is big now, while Lara isn't like she was in her haydays.

Was it announced for PS4 and PC? I don't remember hearing that announcement being made already...

Does anyone know if Target sells the digital download cards for xbone?

Sorry for off topic post, I've just seen a few target employees post in this thread...

I work at Gamestop, and we haven't had any trouble selling tomb raider, in fact we got 60 copies in and sold through 45 of them at midnight release.

Oh yeah, it was announced shortly after everyone saw through the initial XB1 announcement.  Where Microsoft/S-E wouldn't be definitive about exclusivity (Which automatically means timed exclusive).  PC comes out in January I think, and PS4 6 months after that.

Yeah, I remember them saying somewhere along the lines it is only timed, but I didn't hear about them being announced for PS4 and PC. I guess I must have missed that announcement...

SE announced the 2016 Holiday release (PS4) for the new TR themselves. PC is early next year. This was back around E3 I believe.

PS4 version will most likely be a GOTY edition with all DLC included (obviously released alongside PC and X1 versions of the same edition). Though I admit I am speculating more than anything on that.

 

 

Somehow I missed that announcement. Kind of weird to do so soon. Pretty much kills the potential sales of the XBO version. Seems more like MS wasted their time.

What happened was that the same day the xbox-exclusivity was announced Phil Spencer made a comment that the deal had a duration, but there was no real confirmation that it would come to other plattforms until July of this year. Early 2016 on PC, Holiday 2016 for PS4

And how would you compare that to Fallout 4?
