How much did MS pay for TR?

This timed exclusivity is one of the things that made me get an Xbox One, face it we all knew it wouldn't be an exclusive forever.

What it showed me though, along with other things, is that Microsoft are still looking at games. They want the gamer to look at what the Xbox One is now and not at what they had originally planned.

It worked in my case. I say that "yeah, Microsoft do give a crap."

a lot of that is opinionated @TabooBunion4, timed exclusives make sense to a point, and i'd imagine that part of that point is brand recognition, like with CoD getting DLC a month ahead.

and you speak about comparing Apple products like someone who's never touched a MS product, as a Android and Linux person, i think Apple is absolute garbage compared to just about everything else. i've used Windows phones and they are pretty nice, and the
same with the Surface tablets(which are actually very nice).

Windows phone and nice in the same sentence??? Lol, whats nice about it? The fact that its $50 on contract? I personally am a android guy, but all other devices Apple makes I own. I use Windows all the time at work, every 3 hours I get a blue screen, they
are brand new Dells, with the latest windows software! Why do we have them, because we have a contract with dell and MS, they gave us huge discounts to use their trash. Pages is zoo much better that word and its free! Why anyone would buy a MS produce outside
of xbox is beyond me (if you could afford Apple that it). Now don't get me wrong, Apple gouges prices because they know what the alternative is, so they aren't all cookies and milk eather.

Taboo - you win arguments and debates with facts and supporting evidence, not opinions.

I believe it has vDEACON. Can we shut this down please?

TabooBunion4 · Aug 13, 2014

We truly have, once TR was confirmed as a TE it was done.

@tzar

So you know that for a fact, that if Sony bought TR it would be praised? Where is your proof? When did sony buy a exclusive and everyone loved it?

Im sorry, I'm not like you I don't memorize who ones what studios. Honestly the only reason why MS is being flamed, because it makes no sense, they bought exclusive rights of a game that Xbox fans don't want. Titanfall made sense, thats is an xbox game!
They should have thrown countless money to keep that a xbox exclusive. But they didn't, COD is an xbox game! Destiny is an xbox game, Battlefield is an xbox game, Tomb raider is a PS game! If you like fps you go with xbox, if you like platformers you go with
PS, thats how it is.

If you are a real gamer, you get both consoles! Or all three if you count Nintendo.

1. WOW, you MS fans need to get your bashing together, half of you say Sony is too poor to afford to do something like this, then the other half said Sony did it with Bloodbourne and the order, you guys should message each other and get it right.

2. Timed exclusive makes even less sense, as the guy said above, that just gives more sales to uncharted, which is the better game. (assuming its not delayed(which it probably will be)) Then when it comes to ps4, it will probably be during the 2016 gaming
drought march, april, may etc... If you're going to spend the money spend the money!!! get COD/destiny exclusive, those are the Xbox games!! 3rd person platformers are the PS games.

Microsoft just have money to burn sony can't afford to waste money

@Messiah I'm not a fan of timed exclusives nor exclusive content so I won't be congratulating Microsoft for buying timed exclusivity, nor will I congratulate them for attempting to imply that this game is an xbox exclusive.
