I just woke up and sorta glad I didn't wake up early. No new info on Dragon Age.
Caught up with the news and I am a bit annoyed that the next Tomb Raider will be Xbox exclusive.
That ruined my morning ![]()

Glad I didn't wake up early for this. Sucks that I'm going to miss watching the DAI stuff tomorrow live though. I hope it lasts more than five minutes.
I personally think the Tomb Raider exclusive is a terrible idea. The TR series has had a PC fanbase since, oh I don't know, THE VERY FIRST GAME?? Heh, bad move I think. That won't make most PC gamers get an Xbox One. They'll just lose sales until the inevitable 're-mastered' version that will come out on PC a year or so later.
Oh, by the way, is that stream already available to re-watch? Just wondering if it's going to be the same tomorrow for the EA conference.

I could've forgiven them a little bit if the last game had been an Xbox exclusive as well. Because this reboot has brought in a lot of new fans, which includes me. And suddenly they're cutting us off by allowing Xbox to have exclusivity on it? It makes absolutely no sense. Well, it kind of does if you think about MS just hoping to sell more Xbox Ones this way, but still, it's a d*ck move.

I watched it for DAI. What do I get?
Tomb Raider Backlash. Damn.
But Daaayyuum. I haven't seen this kind of backlash since ME3. Understandable of course. but still, DAaaayuum.
TR fans have been throwing around a number all morning - dunno if it's real - claiming that the Definitive Edition of the reboot (next-gen consoles and PC only) sold twice as many PS4 copies as Xbone.
During its first week it sure did.

Square Enix: Gentlemen, the first game could not meet out unreasonable expectations of 6 million sold copies, and the lack of Lighting or anything Final Fantasy in it is also quite disconcerting, let us solve this issue by selling the sequel out as a exclusive Boner title. That'll definitely do wonders.

I feel like I'm fightiing with Pandora, trying to open the box while she is pushing the lid down, my hands clutched around that last piece of hope that got stuck in there.
Seriously shocked that Tomb Raider 2 is Xbox One exclusive.
Also, Quantum Break looks terrific.

That should be the other way around. Making you Pandora. ![]()

Not in some tellings of the myth ![]()
The ones where Pandora was so terrified at the sight of what she had unleashed on the world, that she closed the box so that nothing could get out and hope got stuck in there.
Do you know if that is being live streamed?
Yes.

I'd be surprised if DAI was at Sony's conference, given how they have been doing all of the platform-specific advertising with Microsoft. I'll be watching anyway, but being an Xbox owner, I'm only there for the multi-platform games. Not sure if there will be anything there that interests me.
I've nenver understood platform-exclusive titles, particuarly ones that aren't availible on PC. Is the amount of money Microsoft are willing to pay to make it an exclusive really larger than the sales they would get if they sold it on multiple platforms? For that matter is having it be an exclusive going to result in microsoft getting more money than the massive amount they must be paying to have it be an exclusive?
I just can't see how the numbers could work.
The Sony conference starts in around 4 hours.
Maybe we'll get some more info on Tomb Raider there.

It starts in 2 hours, actually. Well, a bit less than that. More like 1 hour and 45 minutes.
