Sony users would complain, dont say they wouldnt. Also the whole tomb raider thing is stupid. Changing a multi-platform title to a exclusive is just ridiculous.

Some would, of course. But to think we all would is short-sighted. Like I said, we are used to it. Most of us sigh and move on, because that is what the Sony culture has been for a very long time.

I am sorry thats a poor excuse, sony players cry just as much as xbox get over yourself

Yep and thats not right though. If its a multi-platform game we should all get the same things we pay for. Not pay the same price and basically have a pre-order for later content.

Understand what you are saying, but exclusivity like this is neither new, nor limited to the gaming industry. The thing that Sony bought was not exclusivity for the release, but an entire window of time. And, the outline of what that deal would include was likely determined before Microsoft and Sony were asked who was going to pay more for it. No different than early access for DLC on Microsoft consoles in other deals with Activision, just on a longer timescale. Jumping back into the Tomb Raider example, that is actually an incredibly smart business move by Microsoft. I would go as far as saying it is the best move, by either side, for this generation, so far. The reason is simple - Uncharted 4. Within the Sony culture, the game is incredibly popular. It is a great franchise, in my opinion. And, Uncharted probably would not exist without Tomb Raider. Taking that game from being multiplatform to a time-limited exclusive means that Tomb Raider will, in all likelihood, be the only game of its type available for the duration of that exclusivity. As someone who is likely to by an Xbox One, given the right motivation, it is going to help me make that decision to get the console. And, I am sure that I am not the only one. :-)

Oh for sure its a great buisness move for Microsoft. I just personally think from a consumer standpoint that taking things away from gamers who pay their hard earned cash for a console shouldnt have to now purchase another console to play something they like. Then again you would be stupid to buy a console for one game lol

Very much agreed on that point. When I say that it will help me make the decision to by an Xbox One, it would not be just for one game, either. Simply put, there needs to be enough exclusives on a console's radar for me to want to buy it - and that depends on if those exclusives are in my wheelhouse or not. For every generation, I eventually end up owning all of the consoles - but how late into their lifecycle is dependent on games that I want to play that I cannot play on another console or one of my PCs. Each generation, the first console I get is usually determined by announced first-party content, and exclusive content.

For sure. Im sure ill one day buy a ps4 depending on if they show me things ill enjoy.

Everyone's different

Yes, it is called "Snowflake Syndrome", and the outbreak starts on Friday, and runs partway through the weekend.

Do they have Christmas specials for dlc
