Not the complete story here but yes MS did save TF from completion in the beginning hence the 13 month exclusivity. Sony were overly protective/secretive of the PS4 and lost out on getting a game that could have widen the gap quite a bit. In the end MS seeing the buzz around TF around E3 came in and locked TF to MS platforms. Which is why we got this tweet from Vince Zampella when the deal was made because he and his team where indeed not aware of the full exclusivity.

Said what.... Oh shit was not expecting that before NPD results at least.
Good job Sony. PS4 is doing well.
"And destroys the theory that MS paid to kept the game off of PS4" - Well actually they did but also they saved the game in the beginning which is why it was a timed exclusive. So probs to MS for that.
Why explains this tweet ---> https://twitter.com/VinceZa...
"The way Respawn saw it, the developer had never agreed to full exclusivity for Titanfall ...
A trailer like Battlefront 3, Halo 5, etc sure. They only just got the license a couple of months ago so it's unlikely they will be showing any footage anytime soon.
Mostly agree with this expect a few things...
If two piecing is along the same lines as in Judgement than that's fine as it wasn't OP and was something that acted like a last defense like it should. Gears 2's was just annoying and unskillful the majority of times.
Sawed off is fine IMO as long as it acts like the one in Judgement again because of the revamped damage/range system it went from OP in Gears 3 to ok.

It's only a console exclusive because of MS's policies with cross-platform play.

Very true I:SS has done an excellent job. Will be interesting to see how both pushed hardware sells with Thursday's NPD report.
That bribery/incentives.... Oh man reviews are going to be funny to see.
I don't get why he keeps on saying these things when he clearly doesn't/hasn't worked on XB1 before.

XB1 doesn't use the same D3D as PC. MS have said that benefit is for PC's/mobile.

Read it for yourself and decide.

Sorry you're right... My bad I read that completely wrong. From the sounds of things looks like we will be getting more games like deep down going forward with a social focus.
It's not because of that sadly. It's the complete opposite. Not surprised the headline and the first paragraph are misleading here... From their press release --> "Capcom believes that these actions will give the company a competitive advantage due to the more powerful development capabilities in the rapidly growing mobile content and PC online games markets"
This is for social/f2p games not AAA development.
That performance benefit was in reference to PC's/Mobile. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dir...
"Under the hood, Forza achieves this by using the efficient low-level APIs already available on Xbox One today. Traditionally this level of efficiency was only available on console – now, Direct3D 12, even in an alpha state, brings this efficiency to PC and Phone as well. By portin...
Not happening anytime soon if even. It's has less than 5% of coming IMO . And the Tomb Raider definite edition was not free that was the regular Tomb Raider on PS3 that was free on PS+.

@GameNameFame
Well said. It still makes me wonder why people are trying to connect dots that are not there. MS have not specifically said how DX12 will affect XB1 compared what they have said and shown(graphs)that could come to PC.
All they have said is that it will have an effect what that effect is no one knows.
Oh I never knew that's great to hear. It makes sense now given X360's user base as well.
Wow the X360 version did really well given that it's hardly advertised. Not surprising to see XB1 TF keep it's spot given price cuts/offers that have been.
Minecraft has some ridiculous legs.... The game just prints out money. MS/Notch will be happy.
I:SS dropped quite a bit.
Will be interesting to see where Kinect sports rivals is next week.

Loool you are so damn comical which is why does same outlets where magically playing games before the patch arrived also please provide links to such outlets.

No just parts that has been posted on Gaf that explains the exclusivity/saving of TF.
Going to buy the doc because it's cheap and should be interesting to watch/read.
