So what we all thinking?
Surely gonna do more than 500k at launch. |
Wish we could track digital sales (outside of the bundle). Seems like a good 20% or so are claiming they are going to buy it digitally on the Xbox One.
Hopefully, we will be able to pre-order (and download) digitally too soon.
Personally, I think it's retailer friction holding us back.

What do you mean?

Gamestop can stop ordering a game if MS pushes too hard with digital deals on popular games. It's most likely what happened when MS retracted pre-loading Titanfall. They announce it, out of excitement for a new feature for a big game people cancel Gamestop pre-orders, Gamestop threatens to stop promoting Titanfall, MS retracts statement and full pre-loading page.
|
what a load of crap, unless you think Gamestop have a vendetor agains MS, Sony have pre download games all the time.
|
Its a normal thing for Sony that started small and gradually became that. If MS started off pre-downloading with one of their most anticipated titles of the year it would be bigger than any pre-loading that Sony has done.

Well MS clearly have a differnt relationship with retailers, they admitted to being to scared to do day 1 release at all digitally on 360, which Sony didnt have a problem with on PS3. But now there day 1 on all XOne titles, i really dont see how preloading matters either way, the amount of people that would decide there preorder on which option allows them to play it as close to midnight as possible will be tiny.
