Do the SF games even sell that well any more? I know Capcom are in dire straits, but...

Damn! I was actually waiting for the next ten SF game :(

Gutted it's on PS4 though.

I imagine it'll be on Xbox eventually. Didn't Capcom previously do an exclusive with MS for Dead Rising or something?

Yup. You'd imagine SFV would be quite a big seller on XBO though and given Sony don't have two beans to rub together, I can't imagine they could afford to pay Capcom for indefinite exclusivity i.e. pay them as much as the total profit on an XBO version would be.

The only fly in the ointment is if it's a Bayonetta 2 type deal - the original publishers either couldn't afford or didn't want to stump up the cash for the game so the platform holder stepped in and financed production in exchange for complete exclusivity. Haven't heard that as happening in this case though.

Just seen the official announcement. Sounds like it is a 'Bayonetta 2' style deal, Sony's guy suggested they were a 'partner' in the development. PS4 is the only console SFV will be on, although it will be on PC too.
