It doesn't work that way, they work out the math, x loss in sales, then they pick up the tab over x months, plus, its incredibly tempting for a publisher and developer to have a guaranteed lump sum of cash.

Fact of the matter is that Sony didn't want to or couldn't match Microsoft's offer.
Meanwhile anyone with a X1 gets to enjoy one of the best games this year.

No, they have a lump sum based on so many sales, they offer that upfront.

MS in more money than sense shocker, it's nothing new.

Sick to death of this thread being derailed with rubbish. Have a holiday if it occurs again.

Out of curiosity despite my not being able to play it yet 
FU MS, Is it littered with quick time events?

I'd say there about the same number as the last game. It really is just a very well-polished update, if you enjoyed the last game then this is more of the same with sprinkles on the top

There are a few but rare and not that bad when you do have to go through it. The cinematics into live play are really well done again. Been playing this since Saturday and I love everything about it.

What was that all about
Not that I'm taking sides or anything, just wondering what caused half a page of posts to hit the deck.
The normal bickering between MS and Sony...best ignore and don't add fuel to the flames.

I heard about it, can't remember the details but I recal it's not worth it.

Finished the main story and just got 100% completion Not too fussed about the expedition mode so will sell it on whilst I can still get a decent price.
It doesn't bring anything particularly new and some elements (learning languages and having so many different items for upgrades) add nothing to the experience but everything is very polished and just good fun which is why I started playing games in the first place.
One thing I would suggest is to take a break of at least a couple of months between playing the first game and this one because they are very similar so over-familiarity might kick in otherwise.

And just got finished with ROTTR.
Completed too 80% on Normal mode (Tomb Raider) intentionally.
Will start a new profile on maximum difficulty, and complete 100%.
ROTTR story I enjoyed immensely, but personally I think I pre-fared the Tomb Raider (2013) Maybe because it was the first, that I truly played and fell in love with.
But thanks Square Enix, for two great Tomb Raider games. And I look forward to Lara's adventures going forward.

Almost finished on normal difficulty and love it! best single player game I've played for years.
When I start again on the hardest difficulty do all my upgrades and skills carry over or do u have to completely start again ?

Once you complete the game can I take it you can go and mop all tombs, collectibles, missions etc that you haven't done?
Curious about the Complete all Tombs in one playthrough achievement - I presume that means in one save file?
