From what I can see, there are more PS4s out in the wild than XBONEs. In fact it looks like PS4 is selling 2 to 1 over XBONE in Europe alone. I can see that MS wants to use it to sell XBONEs just like the original TR sold PS1s but this just sounds like a stupid decision after Squeenix whining about TR's sales last gen. "Gee, let's see how much we can do this time with one arm tied behind our backs!"
From what I read on the TR site, they just pissed off A LOT of people.
