I hope that Tomb Raider game is just a console exclusive, because I'd really rather play it on the PC.
 
New Tomb Raider not on PS4? Eff that.
 
Smart move by Microsoft, though. They just got themselves their own Uncharted.
 
Agree. Uncharted is still the better series, but I liked both. First game of the new consoles that I'll wish I had access to that I don't. PS4 exclusives have been much better in my opinion in regards to games I like playing.

I'm reading on NeoGaf that it's a timed exclusive.

The letter they published on their tumblr sure sounds like its Xbone exclusive.



"Dear Tomb Raider Community,

As you may have seen, we’ve just announced that Rise of the Tomb Raider, coming Holiday 2015, is exclusively on Xbox. We consider all of you to be the lifeblood of Tomb Raider and the work we do at Crystal. I’d like to give you some insight into this decision, and why we feel this is the very best thing for the Tomb Raider sequel we’re creating at the studio.

Tomb Raider in 2013 was a success due in large part to your continued support. Our goal has always been to deliver something truly special with Rise of the Tomb Raider. Today’s announcement with Microsoft is one step to help us put Tomb Raider on top of action adventure gaming. Our friends at Microsoft have always seen huge potential in Tomb Raider and have believed in our vision since our first unveil with them on their stage at E3 2011. We know they will get behind this game more than any support we have had from them in the past - we believe this will be a step to really forging the Tomb Raider brand as one of the biggest in gaming, with the help, belief and backing of a major partner like Microsoft.

This doesn’t mean that we’re walking away from our fans who only play on PlayStation or on PC. Those are great systems, with great partners, and amazing communities. We have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris coming to those platforms this December, and Tomb Raider: The Definitive Edition is available on PS4.

We know that there are probably many more questions and concerns. Please do send them to us, and we’ll answer to the best of our ability. Meanwhile we’re going all out to try and make something truly special - the most ambitious Tomb Raider game ever built.

Thanks,

Darrell Gallagher
Crystal Dynamics Head of Studios"

Potential game changer?

New PS4 Update Will Let Your Friends Play Your Games Without Owning Them

The best way to think about Share Play is like a "virtual couch". PlayStation 4 will create an online local co-op experience by allowing you to invite a friend to join your game—even when they don't own a copy of it. With this first-of-its-kind feature, you'll be able to play games with a friend just as if you were together in the same room. Let's say that with games… you'll be able to invite your friend online to play against the Miami Heat for the championship as the San Antonio Spurs in NBA2K, tackle the challenging Towerfall Ascension Quest Mode together, or aide, heal, and protect you as Igniculus in Child of Light's local co-op mode.

With Share Play, you can even jump into a game to assist a friend. For example, if there is part of a game that you can't quite finish, you can invite a friend to take over your controls. Like handing over the controller to a friend on your couch, your screen will be shared as your friend gets through the part of the game that has been giving you trouble—can't get past that part in The Last of Us: Remastered when you're hanging upside down? Get a little help.

Share Play will be coming to PS4 as part of the upcoming system software update v2.00, scheduled for release this fall. The update will also add highly requested broadcast and video share features, including both uploading you game play footage and dedicated app support for YouTube, which we mentioned on stage at E3. Finally, What's New will get enhanced real-time activity through friend-of-friend suggestions, allowing instant access to friends' and recently played games' broadcasts, and a real name search function will also be added. More features to come when v2.00 is made available this fall, and we will have more to announce in the coming months.

"Invite your friend to join you in your game...after they spend six hours downloading it over PSN." :chuckles:
 
Anyone with knowledge of the PS4 think they'll eventually allow for files to be played via USB?

Seems like an easy fix, with enough outcry I'd think they'll get that done eventually.

Yes, it should be included in v2.00.. There is no reason this is not already a possibility.

That was part of Microsoft's DRM stance that everyone hated lol.

Wait wut???

The DRM stance that everyone hated was "always online or your system shuts down," it had nothing to do with shared play...
 
Yeah I thought it was the complete opposite. You couldn't bring your games over to a friend's house to play on his/her XB1. Stifling sharing rather than encouraging it. That was what it sounded like to me at least.
