| binary solo said: Titanfall Sigma or Titanfall 2 Prologue I think EA figure that since MS dicked them around on DRM then they can dick MS around with Titanfall console exclusivity, so they are probably looking for a way to get the budding franchise onto PS as soon as the first wave of TF DLC has gone out. A Titanfall Sigma approach would be largely the same game with a few superficial tweaks to make it not exactly the same. A Titanfall 2 prologue approach would be different in campaign (possibly no campaign) but extremely similar multiplayer, with perhaps a new prototype Titan or some other new feature to giver it a sequel sort of vibe rather than just a port by another name. What do you reckon? Are we going to see Titanfall on PS platforms in some way shape or form before Titanfall 2? 50/50 chance of it happening I reckon, but I think it's highly likely that EA is thinking about something like a sigma or prologue option. But MS could make EA an offer it cant refuse for the publishing rights and that would be the end of it. |
EA will attempt to get Titanfall on PS, however, if they miss the hype window most PS fans will simply shrug and not care. Sort of like Mass Effect and Bioshock. For folks who only own one console, exclusivity kind of takes them out of the entire life of a franchise when they miss the first, because you cannot recreate the hype or interest, a year or more after the game came out (Think Uncharted, to a gamer who only owns an MS or Nintendo console). Sony will force EA to provide more content, because Sony can (even moreso now, because they are in the HW lead), and it's their way of giving EA/Respawn a nice liver shot, all while appearing to be protecting their consumer's interests heh. Worked great in the PS3/360 gen, that's for sure...though I'd still argue that Mass Effect and Bioshock sales suffered on the PS3 due to missing the initial launch craze.
