I meant for Tomb Raider.
Well, I guess from its E3 reveal when it was multiplatform we know Crystal Dynamics is developing it and Square Enix is funding it, so...I'd say that's how we know.

Well, in a way it is subcontracting. Microsoft have subcontracted Crystal Dynamics to be afflicted by selective amnesia which makes them forgot they were developing a previously multiplatform game on both PS4 and PC.Argh.
I'm pissed that I can't get anyone to acknowledge the textbook definition of subcontracting.
Wow, that Timdog guy is harassing me on Twitter at 3AM over this. /slow clap
That's not how it works, the sales of delayed version are usually (always?) are not good. It will sell like shit in PS/PC platforms.

Remember when he was a neogaf junior for like a day?
He was, wasn't he? Did I hallucinate that in some wild fever dream?

Microsoft-die hards must really be mentally exhausted by now. First they have to defend EA Access and now they have to defend this. Not counting DRM and Kinect. We seriously need to cut them some slack and let them know we're their friends that we're on the same side and that they don't need to defend every single stupid ass move made by Microsoft and their partners.
pics pls
Yeah I think so. lol
What a champ.
Glad you see things my way
Haha, what? What kind of world do you live in where paying $5 for access to Battlefield 4, FIFA 14, Madden 25, and Peggle 2 is a bad thing?Microsoft-die hards must really be mentally exhausted by now.

Well there may be some exceptions, like if the game gets critically acclaimed so the ported hardware owners would be still interested a few months later. (IIRC Mass Effect did decent on PS3, right?)
My point is while facially SE seems taking rather a safe route, they're actually taking more risky route for maximizing overall revenue...

Timdog - if Sennin brought that up about kagari being wrong on the 6gb he would be at risk of getting ban
SenjetsuSage - lol you just nailed the very reason why I just said to hell with it and deleted the post I was about make
Looks like Senjetsu has something to say too
That is...what? Like I know insults don't usually make sense but what? Seems he's linking to your posts in this topic now though.Ah too late, I reported and blacklisted him. But he did call me a brony.

I have to go to bed, but I'm more than willing to carry on this discussion if you're so inclined. It's going to be about 7 or 8 hours before I respond though.
All this deal did was to reassure people that MS is the evil horse in this race.
They might as well bring back DRM full circle, you done fucked up.

Kagari (mod and an insider) said SE didn't need MS help.
Yeah. Microsoft is literally the devil.All this deal did was to reassure people that MS is the evil horse in this race.

How evil of them to commit to their platform and offer their customers the very best exclusives they can. How fucking dare they spend money to benefit their customers.
Fuck you Microsoft you evil horse. I thought you we're selling off the brand, but instead your committing to it! I hate companies for supporting their products!
Wow @ the salt in here.. Really shows when people post "uncharted is better anyways". Keep on telling yourselves that. I don't even own a xbox one, but I'm not gonna throw a fit over MS securing a good game for next holiday. Good move for them
Funny thing is, Tim Dog reads Gaf everyday. (Hi Tim Dog.) He wants so much to be a part of it and hates us for not loving him. Like his mother. I'm guessing. This is all conjecture but I have a Bachelor of Arts in Communication so I think I know a thing or two about subtext, people.

yah, and barrack Obama is a Kenyan Muslim set out to destroy america by giving people health care.
Really? Are there numbers for ME2/Oblivion/Bioshock and so on? I can't find any unfortunately :/ But I can see the initial buzz wearing off of course.
However I still think TR2 will sell significantly more on current gen than tr1 did on last gen despite or because of the exclusivity deal and the attached marketing/buzz which is already starting on here...
I can't believe people are defending this bullshit, i'm actually disgusted with every single person that is. MS would rather buy a game than make one, as an owner of an xbox one this feels like a double slap, not only do they fuck over many gamers, they dont get me a new game for the xbox one either. Banjo? Viva Pinata? a new IP?
As a console the xbox one is fine but the company behind it, I want them out of the games industry and I dont care if my opinion pisses anyone off, MS are a detriment to the games industry. I don't know who but I cant imagine many companies that could replace MS actually being so anti gamer and anti consumer.
As for SE, uhhhhhh, that company has been a shadow of it's former self for years, they were one of the best companies in the games industry and in the space of 1 gen are now laughing stocks.
The next time SenjustsuSage tries to act all measured and impartial I'm gonna post any of his correspondences with Tim Dog on twitter. What a joke.
This doesn't benefit their customers at all though. Tomb Raider was always going to be released on the Xbox. What benefits are there, for Xbox customers, for preventing a release on other platforms?How evil of them to commit to their platform and offer their customers the very best exclusives they can. How fucking dare they spend money to benefit their customers.
