That's a good get for Microsoft. They're getting their ass kicked, they had to try and pull something out from up their sleeve.

Apparently it's a timed exclusive. XBone gets it first, then PS4 gets it the year after or something.

Jeez, you figured since Tomb Raider is an PS original(i think), the PS4 would get it first.

Wow, that's a huge coup for Xbox, even if it's only just a timed exclusive like Brett says. The Tombraider franchise is huge and the most recent game really did a great job of reviving it. There's going to be a lot of hype surrounding this game at its release.

I never really understood why a company would want their game to be an exclusive. You're only getting like half the sales right? Anyways im glad I have an Xbone. I loved the Tomb Raider reboot, so ill definatley be getting this.

Good job Square Enix. Release a reboot. Sells millions of copy, you still brand it a commercial failure, release it again on next gen systems, then the sequel is a console exclusive.

??????????????????????????????

Fair enough. Hope it dies and never comes back :)

I do wonder if there are retarded people in charge of that company. Srsly.

They like money so I imagine we'll see it on PC eventually.

Yup, timed exclusive.

I get why this is a thing but I still resent it, all it does is inconvenience people on other systems by making them wait for the deal to expire. Nobody is buying an Xbone for this, it's on 360 as well for fuck's sake. This is stupid all around.

The timed delay for PS4 had better not be any longer than 4-5 months. Otherwise, what's the point as PS4 owners like me are just going to watch it online.
