From the first time they announced it at E3 I was psyched for it. I have been a long time fan of TR. I even played the crappy Tomb Raider: Angel Of Darkness on my PS2. I really enjoyed the reboot and bought it for my PS3 and then again later for my PS4. Even after finishing the PS3 version I wanted a sequel to see where they took the series. So when they were trying to pass this off as a exclusive yes it upset me. Now that it is timed I am still a little upset but more because of the statemen...
The reboot actually sold more on PS4 than it did on XBOX One. It also sold more on PS3 than it did on the 360. Also the reason why Uncharted, The Last Of Us, God Of War, and Killzone won't be going to XBOX One is because those games are 1st party titles. That means they are IPs owned by Sony and Developed by Sony owned studios. Microsoft could have used the money they spent to grab the TR sequel as a timed exclusive and instead invested it in a new 1st party studio to develop a new 1st pa...
There is a big difference between securing some DLC content and grabbing a sequel to a known franchise. Even worse is the fact that the Tomb Raider reboot actually sold more on PS3 and PS4 than it did on the 360 and XBOX One. I have no issues with Microsoft or Sony grabbing up DLC. Even the Call Of Duty DLC remains timed to come out first on XBOX One. But I would be just as upset had Sony grabbed up the sequel to a game that had already released on the XBOX One. Grabbing new IPs as 3rd party ...
It sold more on PS3 and PS4 than it did the 360 and XBOX One. But Square in their stupidity decided to piss off the ones who actually bought more copies of the previous game.
@Charybdis That Kaz account you mentioned is a parody account. It is not the real Sony CEO's twitter account. And the reason why Sony sold their Square stock's was because they needed the cash from the sale. Also the TR reboot sold more on PS3 and PS4 than it did on the 360 and XBOX One. Microsoft was hoping to get a boost from this timed exclusive and it just blew up in their face. If they had been up front from the start about it being timed they never would have had this backlash. ...
The game sold more on PS3 and PS4 than it did on the 360 and XBOX one. So this mess is on Square for screwing over the fans.
MS is not doing any favors by doing this now either. People already got tired of this kind of stunt last gen. Even worse they kept relying on the same few franchises. Many said that if they wanted to really compete with Sony now they needed to take money they were spending on timed 3rd party games and put it to work developing new 1st party studios and new 1st party IPs. Instead they made a big mistake with the XBOX One reveal and are left playing catch up to Sony and are again resorting to t...

Yeah ToO did look like a lot of fun but I certainly won't be buying it now. I had even considered buying Sleeping Dogs DE for my PS4. But now I won't even bother. Square is going to lose on this deal more than they ever hoped to gain by taking Microsoft's money.
On another note. If Microsoft had really wanted to make a serious go of it this gen and give Sony a run for their money they should have used that cash to open more 1st party...
This could turn out to be a blast to play. Seems very ambitious in the size of the area and the fact that you can play as any creature in the game. I definitely want to see more about it and I hope it lives up to what is being promised.
I will be adding to this total later this week when I pre-order the digital Guardian Edition on my PS4. Already have a lot of my clan mates ready for this game to come out.
I have always wanted a sequel to Heavenly Sword. But I also really enjoyed DMC and am now enjoying Enslaved finally. I cannot wait for this but man that chick looks a lot like Kai from HS.
All games on PS4 now require the full install. There is no difference between digital and physical for disc space. That is a big reason why I went all digital this gen. I am going to use up the space anyway so now at least I can access my PS4 and all my games on my vita anywhere I can get a good wi fi connection. Also I don't have to worry about my disc drive wearing out because it has to read the disc for me to even access the game that is fully installed on my system.
Same here. I cannot wait to see what the full game has in store and hopefully the rest of my clan mates who are buying this won't take too long to get to level 20 as well. I really want to get into the Raids and we have already determined that Friday nights would work well for them.
It is Raids not strikes that require 6 friends. Strikes only require 3 people and those do have matchmaking.
EA Access compares better to PS Plus than it does PS Now. Plus gives you free games, discounts, and trials to some digital games. the free games are downloaded to the system just like you can do with EA Access. PS Now only streams the game and yes they do need a subscription for it but you don't actually own the games and even if you could buy them you still have to play them through PS Now. EA Access doesn't stream games but if it did stream EA titles it would open up their back cata...
As it stands now no. If it was also on PC with access to the back catalog of games available there then yes. The fact that it is limited to XBOX One and with how they wanted to push it on PS4 just means that the back catalog of decent EA games that would become free is very limited. Because it is for digital copies and not streaming the games then the games would have to be able to run on the next gen consoles and that makes it very limited until they start doing that for newer games. Most li...
Well now that this game is on my radar I will be buying it for my PS4 on day one.
I swear people are treating this as if Destiny when it releases will remain that way forever. It will change with new content added all the time and no doubt future expansions and titles in the franchise will add new areas. It is nice to know for once that while yes their will be DLC/Expansions and sequels, it all fits together and the characters we start out with can also be taken into the future titles. We aren't just playing an MP game for 11 months only to have to buy a new one the ne...
People who are complaining about lack of content should go check out the video IGN released today where Bungie talks about Raids and other end game content. The fact that you are still gaining experience and rank after level 20 and that some raids can't even be started until rank 25 is huge. Also the daily and weekly Nightfall missions. Bungie has a big plan in place for this game and the Beta as fun as it was didn't even come close to the whole story. I for one cannot wait for the fu...
I agree that attacking people over it is going too far. Just make your voice heard in a respectful way to Square and Crystal Dynamics that you aren't happy with how they handled this. Don't go off threatening people because of it. I was displeased by how it was handled but I went to their announcement page and told them that without threatening anyone. I think the true fans did the same but just some idiots on the fringe always take things too far.
