Why would Titanfall be an XBOX ONE system seller?

as i said, i have no fucking idea. maybe the mech AI? like in forza driveatar? 

You're getting Forza and Titanfall confused. To my knowledge Respawn has said nothing about AI (I may be wrong, but I haven't heard it). They wanted the "cloud" in order to have dedicated servers like a PC game would.

Why would you need teh Cloud for Dedi servers? I know PS3 games that have dedi servers and they don't need teh power of teh cloud.

I suspect either:

1. Microsoft's cloud service was cheaper than the competition (though I'm having a really hard time understanding how it can be cheaper than Amazon's super cheap cloud servers, EA's very own dedicated servers used for Battlefield 3/Medal of Honor on PC, or just using their own servers like Call of Duty 4).

2. Microsoft gave them a fat check to use their dedicated servers and keep it console exclusive.
