Rise of the Tomb Raider - (Timed) XB1 exclusive

    I might have to pick up an XB1 at some point now, unless there's hope for a multiplatform release a few months after the exclusive initial one:

    Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

    Bahahahaa. Big long epic speech that basically can be summed up to: "Microsoft gave us shit loads of money, so we are now making our game exclusively for their console'.


    Also, Rise of the Tomb Raider is a terribly generic name!

    This sucks but it's probably only going to be a timed exclusive.


    Didn't the first Tomb Raider sell they least amount of copies on the Xbox anyway? Would be silly not to make this multiplatform eventually!

    It's really kinda silly the way they try to word these to make it seem like it's exclusive to Xbox forever. First Ryse, now this. Even the original Halo has "only on xbox" stamped on it, though its on PC as well. I know timed exclusives aren't exactly a new thing, and that Microsoft isn't the only one that does it. I just wish they were more clear so people aren't misinformed. My friend bought an Xbone because of Dead Rising 3, they flat out said it was an exclusive and definitely wasn't coming to PS4 or PC, but then 7 months after its release they announce it's coming to PC. I don't understand the timed exclusive either. Is it really the deciding factor to buy a certain console because a game comes out a month earlier on it? Or are they just trying to grab the people who are impatient and can't wait for the other platform releases? Makes you question if the money they're giving them is really worth it at all on their side. I guess that's why they're so ambiguous about mentioning whether or not its exclusive forever.

    what the

    and?


    and i tought this game was for PC


    NOOO!!!!


    the last tomb raider 2013 was epic i liked it very much but i am not willing to sacrifice my money for xbox only. its just like if i wanted to play halo only

    On a snow-themed quest for the secret to immortality, sounds like Uncharted 2 to me!


    Joking aside, really looking forward to this. Its predecessor was such an unexpected gem, but as a result it has a lot to live up to this time. It's also got stiff competition in the form of Uncharted 4, which of course exists in that same Indiana Jones-esque genre. Hopefully the end will be two fantastic games of that type this year.


    It'll have to be really good to make me get an XBone, though. I'm still waiting for a killer title to convince me to hand over my cash.

    Hey guys,

    I was paid a lot of money to make a game for the Xbox One. It's an exclusive. Well, not really, but we are going to pretend that and later admit that we will be withholding the game for a year so that the other peasants can play it too. Also, we put a lot of effort into rebooting Tom Raider. Now that it's successful, we don't feel that need to excel anymore. Besides, the money is already in the bank. We've been playing a lot of Uncharted and The Last of Us. Naughty Dog unfortunately did not want to work with us so we replaced Drake with Lara, copied the Uncharted 2 setting and borrowed a lot of gameplay elements from the previously mentioned titles. It's with great pride that I will show you new gameplay from "Theft of the Uncharted Series". Sorry, I mean, "The Last of Us in the Snow". Dammit, it's "Rise of the Tomb Raider" of course.

    Regards,

    Crystal Clear Ripoff uh... Dynamics.
