The question I have is why announce this now? Are their internal metrics for this game looking terrible? I'm just not sure why MS would allow them to release this information so far out from release.
@lkpower: This game would have definitely been made without MS's "help". It was (and probably still is) being developed for multiple platforms at the time of it's announcement. The only thing MS did was to buy console exclusivity for a one year period.
EA trying to work their way back into Sony's good graces after their partnership with Microsoft. Guess they can no longer ignore the writing on the wall now.
@ungodly: I'm talking exclusively about recent history. Not shit from 20 years ago. I would also point out that TR was a game that was set to release for all platforms until MS swooped in to buy exclusivity. This isn't the case with SF5. They're making it very clear from the get-go that SF5 is exclusive to the PS4/PC.
MS set the precedent and has moneyhatted two games that were meant to be multiplatform already. So why should I be outraged when Sony is just playing the game?
