Next gen console exclusive. 


I don't get what you're trying to say though. One post is that Titanfall didn't sell well and then the next it sold great.

Like the cloud, it's only word that MS has for you, no delivery.

 Halo and Gears.  Xbox 360s top selling exclusives.  Kind of points towards the fanbase being more interested in shooters than anything else.

You obviously know why I said what I did both times, or else you wouldn't have read enough into it to come up with this reply.  Both times I referenced it selling more than the rest of the exclusives, go back and read the posts and figure out why I did if you want.



Titanfall may not have sold a bajilion copies but it sold better than Call of Duty on X1 and that says a lot about the game. Either people were tired of COD or Titanfall is just great... or both.

As for new IPs, we'll see more when they are ready to be shown. Hope they expand Ryse as a franchise, revive Kameo or just build something as big as Gears but in a fantasy setting... like Fable but not Fable.

I'm pretty sure people fap to MS bashing. Everyday!!!

Anyway if Titanfall is not a mind blowing seller what is it?
It's attach ratio to X1 is second to none. Imagine if X1 had sold 6+million when Titanfall was released.


Titanfall will is not made, published or owned by MS. The second game is most likely going to be multiplat.

quickest way to deal with this thread is to just post upcoming games and if it hits 6 million plus you can say: "I told you so"

I'm doubting this will sell more than one million.  If it does sell more than six million, then "I told you so" away.

It's a little early to tell don't you think.


Look at the history of Platinum Game sales. Its exclusive to one platform. Nope...I am not expecting much so if it does sell well remember this post and say "I told you so". I am 100% with that guy.

Titanfall was it.


Titanfall is not the future of MS.



jlmurph2 said:
Hopefully something like Quantum Break, Scalebound, Crackdown or some new thing that we don't know about surprises us.


Yeah, Quantum Break seems like the only one out of that list. I trust Remedy with their pedigree for making games.

Wow a barrage of third party games. That is not helping. Shooters are popular whichever HD twin you look at.
