Idiots.
18 years and she dumps me like this.
Shame though, I was looking forward to more Tomb Raider games on the PS4.

Looks like it could be a timed exclusive anyway.
Does that translate as 'Microsoft offered us a load of dosh'?
They'll regret making it an xbone exclusive. Uncharted 4 will be out around that time anyway so I don't think it really matters.
Well that sucks, the first one was brilliant.
feck off.
Microsoft being wankers because Sony is ahead?

Of course.
So, how many people will actually buy an Xbone to play this?
A sequel to a multiplatform game is an exclusive. Don't think I've heard of that before. (Ok maybe Bayonetta.)

Feels wrong. Tomb Raider made it's name on Playstation, it would be like if Gears Of War switched over to PS4.
I am glad I own both.
Best example I can think of is Final Fantasy from Nintendo to Playstation?
Absolute horse shit. Microsoft really are the man city of the gaming world. Throw money at stuff and ruin it for everyone. Absolute wankers. I am not even going to bother complete tr: de now. It can just feck off.
Oh feck off microsoft.
Disappointing, although I'll prob end up with an xbone by then anyway
Yes. It's the most corporately worded open letter you're ever likely to see.
Well, that was done because of the optical disc over anything else, so it's not the same thing.
I mean for fans, a game switching platforms after building reputation on another rather than whether it was moneyhatted or not.
feck 'em I suppose.
soul < money
Microsoft is not to be blamed for this , for them this is just a marketing as usual , its the developer who fecks the fans

Watch Glock defend MS over this then have a go at Bungie for selling out for timed DLC.
What? 
I don't like exclusive content for anyone, MS or Sony or Nintendo - if you're paying the same price for a game you should get the same content. I haven't ever paid money for it either.

Xbox exclusive = it will bomb.
Such a shame. I would've loved to play this on the PS4.
I find the fact that the Xbone name has stuck far more hilarious than any one of the dick moves Microsoft has made or will make in the future.
How could they not see it coming? Idiots.

They were released on PC atleast. It isn't just Sony fanboys angry over this.
I think a lot of us are just a bit pissed that this game is a sequel to a multiplatform game we all enjoyed and suddenly it's exclusive to one platform. They really did a fantastic job with rebooting the series and now many of us wont be able to play it. A part of me hopes this will be a timed exclusive but I doubt it.
I really wonder how much they're getting paid for this though. The PS4 has sold 10 million now, it's way ahead.
But they still signed a contract to specifically make the series unavailable on the system in which the first game started out on.
I just find it funny that all over the internet you see people saying Microsoft are dicks and that Sony would never do such a thing.
A shitload, I am guessing.
Square were moaning about sales on the last game saying 3.4m copies failed to meet expectations. And it cost £60m to make.
I thought the first game started on Playstation too?
Sony show they are willing to do this type of stuff constantly with the exclusive content which in my eyes is just as bad. Ok, it's not as impactful - but I've never understood why some people get extra stuff due to the platform they're on when everyone is paying the same.
If Sony had more cash to throw around, we'd see this from them too. I know Bloodborne is technically a new IP, but we all know it's basically a spiritual successor to Dark Souls which is a multiplatform game.
I'm not saying that Microsoft aren't cnuts, just that they're not the only ones.
Sony Japan are developing bloodbourne too.
And you do know what Dark Souls was a spiritual successor too?
Well yeah, I didn't mean exclusively just that it started there as well
I guess I should have said "a system" rather than "the system". My mistake.
Plus the majority of the sales of the first game were on playstation. It didn't sell much on the Saturn. And wasn't released on a Nintendo console.
I do, but Sony had the chance to continue with Demon Souls and let it go multiplatform. After that point it really doesn't matter..
Come on.. we know that From Software are developing Bloodborne with a little collaboration from Sony.
It's not the same, but it shows a willingness from Sony to do similar. They don't simply rely on their own first party exclusives - infact, early Playstation eras were massively helped by third-party exclusive games.
No one is disputing that it's a dick move, but I think it's crazy that people think that MS are evil for it and that Sony/Nintendo wouldn't or haven't done similar.
