So fantastic. The Sony fanboys crying on Twitter.
Wow, the people at Eidos are incredibly smart. Tomb Raider sold millions on release but was still considered a bomb for months since their sales targets were stupidly high and now they're taking the sequel which is obviously going to cost a whole lot more to develop and they're releasing it exclusively on a console with a dramatically smaller installed base than it's main competition.

They might as well make it an exclusive to Wii U since it'd make about as much sense as releasing it solely on XB1.

Might as well make it exclusive to the Wii U? Rofl. MS will of put in a hefty offer. It's been accepted it. That's business. There will be exclusive games and content throughout this generation. People will have to deal with it.

If Sony announced it as an exclusive there wouldn't be anywhere near as much fuss as there is about it on Twitter etc.

Because Sony wouldn't be excluding such a large part of TR's audience if it was exclusive since, if you own a next gen console, chances are it's a PS4. Last report I read about the sales of next gen consoles had Sony outselling Microsoft by four to one. Combined with the huge PC gaming crowd that's probably, what. 60/70% of TR's potential audience that's now been alienated? It's just dumb and I can't imagine it'll stick because total exclusivity of third party games are almost unheard of these days outside of Portable gaming.

Mark my words, Rise of the Tomb Raider will not remain an XB1 exclusive.
