Crytek are dicks for wanting to own their own IP?
Well considering the IP didn't sell well and Microsoft actually seeking them out to retrieve it, I'd say they were dicks about. Even in their period of hardship, they wouldn't sell it. You have TimeSplitters, why do you need Ryse?
Because it's theirs. What's difficult to understand about that?
Microsoft funded it and got a pretty thin game in return with a fuckton of potential. I say it should be their's.
Them's the breaks when you fund a game's development instead of developing a game internally. Maybe they'll learn from their mistakes and invest in buying first-party studios rather than renting them.
You don't need to own the studio to own the IP, you do know that, right? Microsoft could get Rockstar to make an X1 exclusive game for them and still own the IP.
Unlike Sony with Agent, they probably went broke trying to offer the sum of development. lol, poor company is poor.
