Average? No. Titanfall is amongst the best reviewed games on 8th gen at the moment.

The X1's "savior" is significant price cuts and numerous noteworthy games. That's the same thing that saved PS3.

@Bold: Because the Generation has been sooooooooooo looooooooonnng.

@italics: and free online multiplayer, and free games/no paywall on its subscription service, and europe and japan, and optional peripherals, and losing billions of dollars, and including everything the 360 had as peripherals in the system while maintaining price parity, etc...

Titanfall is reviewing above average on 7th gen as well. Its an above average game, simple as that.

Clearly, I wouldn't say its the best or even the best so far, but its pretty damn good.

You're going into detail about what Sony did with PS3... but what actually encouraged many people to eventually buy a PS3 was significant price cuts years over year.

I'm sure bundles had just as strong an effect plus ps3 has only had 3-4 price cuts, so year after year is a bit of exaggeration. It wasn't just price they had to make the system a lot more valuable. Hence giving away a lot of stuff for free.

600 & 500 -> 400 -> 300 -> 200

No 8th gen console is taking the same finanical risk as the PS3. Even at $600 it was apparently selling at a loss. Courtesy of Bluray and teh cell.
