Titanfall exclusivity proved to be (quite) pointless

People like to forget it took COD 3 tries in the 7th gen before it hit it big. Titanfall is purely MP based.....it boggles my mind what Titanfall 2 will sell with a full campaign and expanded MP features.

- Will be the best selling X1 game so far, much better then ANY release at this early in a console lifecycle in any generation (aside from Wii Sports lol).

- Drove up Gold subscriptions
- Increased X1 weekly sales by 20k average
- This is a 3rd party multiplat and it behaved like a exclusive. Trumped Infamous numbers, a 1st party game.
- Gives 360 a shot in the arm and IMO makes its 2014 lineup better then whatever PS3 has this year.

Come at me bros.

Considering Infamous is currenly outselling titanfall it's not true that it "trumped" infamous's numbers. They did have a good lead tho but it won't last.

Fact is it's being outsold by infamous and its on 3 platforms. That's not something to gloat about.

 

You are right tho it will be a great game once they get their shit together and produce a game worth playing instead of just a few repetitive multiplayer maps with audio logs thrown in.
