Sine Mora Is NOT A Cross-Buy Title

Chris writes: "Digital Reality have answered the question today on Facebook with a “unfortunately, no”. The reason behind this is that the games have different feature sets. "

oh wells. Have been looking forward to this title even before it went xbox "exclusive". I'll go for the portable option. If they're still rocking stereo 3D on the big brother version, I'll bite too.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4171d ago

Yea. Seems like I'd like this on vita more than ps3. Going for the vita version.

Things lacking Cross-Buy is not a surprise, developers can't afford to do that and I am sure many of them would much rather sell them on both systems instead of giving one away for free.

Even though yes in some situations it could actually make more interested in purchasing the game, people who wouldn't simply because it isn't Cross-Buy but is isn't big enough for many developers to take that chance.

Cross-Buy is excellent in the sense that it even exists at all but I for one am never expecting it to be a huge thing for a lot of games due to how bad the economy is in general. For me it's a bonus nothing else.

Developers just don't seem or from a common perspective would want to use Cross-Buy. As it seems more like a gamble right now than a guaranteed profit.

SandWitch4171d ago

Cross-buy for this game would be completely sensible - I'm quite sure that pretty much noone is going to buy two copies of Sine Mora anyway. Cross-buy, on the other hand, may attract new customers who weren't interested in the game before.

My vita will get this for sure

izumo_lee4171d ago

Sine Mora for what i have heard is a great game, a rebirth to those classic SHMUPS of yore. I really hope more of these games particulary from developers like CAVE to bring these games to the Vita.

I saw someone on Youtube play the classic Squaresoft game Einhander & on the Vita it looks absolutely beautiful for a game over 14 years old.

porkChop4171d ago

That's a poor excuse to be honest. That excuse might make sense if people were asking about Cross Play, but Cross Buy? How does slightly different content mean you can't support Cross Buy? Shit, you could do Cross Buy with a spin off Vita game if you wanted to, there's nothing that limits it.

Destroy all Humans was $2 at one point... this is by far the cheapest month so far. Sine Mora, Shantae? WTF

crazyCoconuts1423d ago

Sounds like you may need a little Coffee Talk

darthv721423d ago

is this the same coffee talk with linda richman?

LucasRuinedChildhood1423d ago

Are MS even trying with Games for Gold anymore?

drpepperdude1423d ago

I guess they are using it to fund all the money they losing on Game Pass from $1 subs.

UltraNova1423d ago

Why would they even try giving away decent games when they can have their customers pay for them with GP?

crazyCoconuts1423d ago

Do you think it's possible XBL will include GamePass in the future and just drop the free games?

Z23ash1423d ago

That’s what gamepass ultimate basically is

crazyCoconuts1423d ago

I'm talking about them dropping free games and providing GP at the same cost as XBL. $15/month is too much for lots of ppl imo

mandingo1423d ago

How is 15/m too much. That's just disrespectful lol

Kribwalker1423d ago

this is a terrible month for gwg

execution171423d ago

I don't even remember the last time they had a good month with gwg

Kribwalker1423d ago

april was pretty good with Project Cars 2 and Fable Anniversary, but the rest this year haven’t been great. But, mind you, you do get 4 games every month as opposed to PsPlus scaling back to 2 games a month so 🤷

Specter2291423d ago

Another month of saving space on my harddrive.

A lot of the times FF2 was released, it was actually FF4. :O

V0MIT_M0NSTER2408d ago

Rather get news of a new Elser Scrolls then all this re-releasing of Skyrim. Curious to see how many people actually get it on Switch.
