Was not expecting this...at all.
It just didn't make any sense. Unless the amount they were paid by Microsoft was enormous (and it probably wasn't), I cannot see how it was worth damaging the IP for a short-term gain. Tomb Raider has a long history on Playstation, it sold better on Playstation last gen, and the PS4 is leading this gen by a comfortable margin. It's just asking for brand regression.

It reminds me, to a far lesser degree, of the stupid moves Sega made when they went third party. They put their best games on Xbox, the platform that their games sold the worse on. The Gamecube got the iffiest games but had the best software sales. PS2 was in the middle.

Is this what the PS4 version has?
Good. They probably sold over 3M on Xbox/PC. Hopefully they will do the same deal for other titles.
That whole thing turned out to be a debacle. I enjoyed the game, but the drama murdered this iteration of the franchise. Then again, a lot of people don't like this version of Lara for some reason. Looks like it's back to the drawing board again with Shadow of the Tomb Raider or whatever.
Sad news, but hardly surprising. It's really a shame, I enjoyed the reboot quite a bit, but I'm sure this will hurt the franchise in the long term; SE should have been more foreseeing than this.
I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!
Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
this is what happens when you do shady backhanded deals.
Well it got nice pro features. Besides that the game arrives a year latet it is also unplayable after patch 1.05 on all ps systems because of frame pacing issues. This is according to digital foundry it's latest analysis, my advice buy it on pc.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
