Argh I hate these threads! What would the point be? Why would you only limit the game to one console when you would sell far more if you sold to all.

Anyways if it did happen I would shoot myself.

I agree, these threads often lead to console bashing, and some of it did on the first page lol.

The first page has no console bashing.

Stealing multiplatformers? Seems like bashing

I'll say the same thing I said in the other thread -- no way would (or should) Crystal cut out half their sales by making the game exclusive to one platform or the other. The platforms aren't different enough that there is a real reason to focus only on one of them. Wii, on the other hand, shouldn't get any more of the 360/PC/PS3 games because it will seem gutted in comparison to the "real" version. However, if Buzz Monkey or someone else wanted to do an exclusive Wii TR game with its own story and locations, I'd probably buy it because it could be optimized for Wii without trying to compete with the 360/PC/PS3 TR games.

You can get the DLC with a free Silver account. You still need to pay the $20 for the levels, but that's the cost of the DLC, not the internet price. You don't need to pay Microsoft for a Live membership to download levels or buy DLC (only for playing multiplayer games online).

The 360 version of TRU was fine, especially with the patches. I experienced very few bugs, and none of them were game-stopping. The DLC was even better. It was nearly flawless in terms of bugs, and they did some really creative things with level design and the grapple. Crystal did just fine on the 360, and they'll do even better if Square gives them more time and money to work upon TR9.

If the next TR was exclusive to the 360 then i simply wouldn't play it. I would never buy a console just to play a game, even if it is Tomb Raider.

Perhaps if one of my friends bought it for their 360 i would play it.
