This just upset me, seeing as I won't get the chance to play it for for months after release. Still excited as to what CD can do to improve on the previous game, which was alraeady really good.
It's already begun
except one is multiplat

If they minimize the shooting and make the environment your worst enemy, I'm all in. Please be a survival/mountain climbing game and not another cover shooter.

Yep.
I would hate to see a mountain climbing game. That would be boring as fuck. Climbing is the most boring part in Uncharted and Ass Creed for me.
Why are they doing this? The wait is going to kill me.
Xbone parity clause.
lol at that sentence in OP. They are "still unsure".
Because people are very slowly moving away from X360.
I guess people are still satisfied with their 360s, eh?

I hope Nixxes is working on the inevitable PS4 version. I thought they did a great job with the DE. Hopefully they get the same performance out of this new game as with Definitive Edition, since the base game is still cross gen.
Shame I have to wait till next year though.

What's all this talk about "picking this up on PS4 eventually"? Isn't Microsoft publishing the game? I.E. no way in hell it's getting on Sony's console?
Is that wrong?
It's the game. The developers seem confident enough. And I'm glad GameInformer finally lifted the curtain. The Rise of Tomb Raider sounds like a very special game so far. A very... special game. Maybe one for the ages.

Waiting for the PS4 version ? Isn't this Xone exclusive?

This is a sequel to the Tomb Raider reboot. Why wouldn't people be excited? It was a very popular game.
MS is publishing game on Xbox platforms. Square will publish game on other platforms when and if deal ends.
If is the big part of your sentence.
If this was a new IP or the first entry in a reboot... but we have a reference to what we are getting already.

Sure, but it's an adventure TPS, not a shooter. We've already seen DE sell twoce as much on PS4 and I think TR, overall, sold more on PS3 too.
This kind of game also does well in Europe where the X1 is on life support (outside the UK). I think the argumemt does make sense, the Xbox audiance just has a thing for shooters. there's a reason that perceptioN exists.
Thay doesn't mean every single Xbox fan is the same, obviouslY. For example, one could say the PS audiance has a thing for JRPG/Racing/Fighting/Adventure games but there are plenty who also enjoy shooters.
Good chance this will be 1080p on XB1 since TR
Ah true, but wasn't it variable? With it being last gen, you're right. I could see 1080 or at least 1080pr
I think it's pretty safe to assume going by leaks, and MS' own handeling of the situation and the wording they've been using.

Well being that video games are things we actually play yeah I think its odd to get hyped over something so inconsequential. Are people going to get hyped over the next book cover in the ASOIAF series?

We're getting the first details on a highly anticipated game. Why wouldn't we be hyped?

People can get hyped over whatever they want, first of all. Secondly, if I had to guess, I would say that people are simply more excited due to the fact that we are getting new information.
Come on, man. Do you REALLY have a problem with people being excited about something?
Why do you not like fun?
Timed.

It was not variable. The cutscenes were rendered at 900p.
Probably.

I hope it doesn't get released on PS4 too long after the XB1 version.

Looks pretty much like the previous game visually with a few tweeks. Still I am mildly interested. I quite enjoyed the last one.
Which could mean PC, but okay.
Blah, this argument has been on since the announcement. The port begging is just dumb and always seems so unenforced on XB1 titles.

No its confirmed timed exclusive. Granted a PS4 release isn't confirmed, neither is Madden 16. i.e. we know its coming.

It was only variable during specific cut-scenes. Most notably with close-ups of Lara, which Digital Foundry noted was most likely because of TressFX. During actual gameplay it held a 1080p resolution.
