The Xbox exclusive was a big mistake, and while I want the series to be successful in general, I think sales are going to take a huge hit over this. I doubt it will be the cash cow they had hoped.<br /><br />I'm still debating whether and how to continue to promote the game, but as a long-time fan I'm angry and heartbroken. :(Stellalunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03782486742546192464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-3335433640634421422014-09-15T07:53:37.563-04:002014-09-15T07:53:37.563-04:00I stand by you on this one, Stella.

It was amateurish to think that they could disrespect tombraider gamers like this and this insensivity was very revealing. Did they really think that they could disregard Playstation gamers like this? Sony can thank Lara for a large part of PS' success and her creators can thank PS gamers for their success. CD created a good game with the last installment of Tomb Raider. However, there are questions asked whether they are able to relate to what made Lara great in the past. They shifted the balance to action whereas the Lara we followed in past was more of an adventurer in my opinion. At any rate, their credibility took a hard beating with their latest marketing flop.<br />RobertAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-89900862011581016832014-08-26T20:12:47.300-04:002014-08-26T20:12:47.300-04:00No, I will not.

I think this deal was a big mistake and I stand by that assertion.

Not sure what I will play in its place ... somehow the trailers for Drake just don't resonate with me. Though maybe I should try it. I almost picked up The Last of Us several times but it seems kind of depressing. Just don't know. --Can't believe we got screwed over like this. JMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
