I don't mind waiting a couple weeks but anything close to six months or a year (Rise of The Tomb Raider) then I'm going to start my own petition, lol. I hope they just do what COD did with Black Ops 3 content coming to PS4 three weeks early, then it's no biggie. Another question is why give the worst performing platform/console content first or for that matter having it even be your platform for all promotion? Many people have only seen footage from Xbox and are talking down the game based just on that recent footage alone. My answer to this is that I think since this game has been in dev. for so long, Ubisoft already made a deal with Xbox back in 2013, way before it was factually proven with all the recent cross platform titles ex. (SW Battlefront, AC Syndicate and many more) running at sub par levels on Xbox One compared to PS4.

 
this isnt surprising, like g1nt3r said, its who ever pays the most to get first dibs..playstation has done this same thing with Destiny. its all for sales and i dont see this type of thing ending anytime soon, with either company

 
That what kinda sucks about the PC, no one cares about us, unless steam decides to do something like that for exclusives.

Funny everyone complains about it when MS gets tomb raider first or CoD maps, but it was a wonderful thing when  Destiny does it (dark below) or the enitre AC series.  It's BS on both sides.  I know devs do it for the cash, but I wish some of these publishers had the stones to come out and say how terrible this is.

It's like music now.  A cd comes out and if you buy it at best buy you get two bonus tracks.  Target has two different bonus tracks.  I tunes has a bonus track, three live tracks and a digital booklet.  They want fans to buy the same music 3 times, so you know what people do?  Pirate it.  And it hurts the industry.  So does this.

Just make a good game, support it post launch, release DLC that is worth the money and you'll do just fine.  Look at the Witcher.

If only it worked that way. Too much greed.

​You are completely correct. Sadly the market these days doesn't revolve around pleasing your customer, it's about "exclusives" and $$$

I agree. I personally, love my Xbox, yet everyone gets in an uproar anytime it gets any special treatment.  I'll play mainly on my Ps4 this game, to play with my clan, not for graphics and so on. I grew up on NES for Christ sakes...graphics really don't matter that much to me. Especially if it's hardly noticeable ? All this generations entitled gamers need to stop crying so much and see what's happening. The industry isn't about the gamers anymore, it's about them, and the console wars. 

 
Yeah people cry to much about graphics however I do not like developers giving special treatment to any platform, even my own beloved PC. It's not so much about the art anymore it's about money... It's sad.

 
These companies that release exclusive content to one specific platform first have to know that everyone knows it's all about them and their wallets, and that it isn't to make us feel special. Anything released by third party devs should be available to all three platforms simultaneously, at least that's the way I feel. I think my earlier post may have come across otherwise.

 
Like MesaSean says when it comes to the business of game development it's way deeper than just the devs or publishers. They have stock holders and boards that they have to answer too. Sucks for the gamers on the platform that have to wait for the content.

​Yeah, suppose thats a good point... still though.. the art, no love for it anymore.

 
Long as they don't do like Bungie and have years of exclusive stuff it will be fine for me. That is the only thing that bothered me about Destiny exclusives. I could get them but after they are not even important anymore?
