It's just temporary exclusive at launch (Holiday 2015)... it will hit other platforms later. Microsoft seems handle announcements like this, in a fog. They don't understand public perception at all. People are looking for reasons to hate on Microsoft. http://tombraider.tumblr.com/post/94529480860/rise-of-the-tomb-raider-update They should have called it "First XBox One" and branded it.... the word 'exclusive' upsets people when it's a lie. There is too much money on PS4 and PC side to make the franchise truly exclusive - Crystal Dynamics / Square Enix can'r afford to exclude 2/3(+) of their customers.
First off its Xbox not XBox... I find it weird that's it's exclusive on Xbone first. The last Raider lacked in the story telling. Probably won't play this for a while anyways even though I have an Xbone.
I bought it on the day of release and didn't open it for a month because downloaded DCUO the night before.
The game developer isn't blameless. I mean after that e3 reveal why would you let the Microsoft pr department handle the reveal?
