| Kerotan said: Not from the subject at hand, which is their games console unlike MS. You really should move on! It's not a multiplayer only game and it's a weak effort at both. Fiar enough if they just went with the online but even that is half baked. It's not the first time I've heard dead populations on Xbox games. There was a guy on here a while ago who sold his Xbox for a PS4 because he plays COD in Australia and he said he could hardly get a game for half the modes. That's ghosts on the X1. PS4 no problem at all and he switched consoles for that. The reality is if Titanfall was selling well enough the price would have been slashed. Hell even Infamous second Son is still a good bit more expensive. I'm pretty sure the online of the game is similar to Killzone, yes I can get a game but it's hardly booming and some of the modes you can't get full games anymore. That game was also slashed in price so it all makes sense to me. Sony does advertise other peoples games but they also advertise their own. Nothing lazy about that they just want to advertise a wide variety of games. Same as MS. many people who are upgrading to the X1 are doing so as a result of the firesale that began in November. Forza, Sunset did nothing for Hardware sales and they were good exclusives. Hell even the over hyped Titanfall had to be given away for free and it couldn't beat the PS4. That tells me that tomb raider won't sway too many people either especially when it's fans on PS know it's coming in 2016. The reality is a much cheaper xbox swayed people. It's the only way MS has a chance against the superior console. They may have got some of that $50M back but the reality is MS have done a lot of things similar that ultimitely are not exaclty worth it. They'd be a lot more popular if they spent more of their moneyhatting money on new dev teams like sony has done and get more first party games out. Instead of going for established franchises that just piss people off. They done a huge deal for GTA IV as you know and how did that fare for them when GTA 5 came out? PS3 version sold way more. Just shows you that the world of PS is not exactly shook by this massive waste of funds. It just gives MS an image worse then they already had. Now lets move on good sir! |
It shouldn't surprise you to see Titanfall cheaper than a game like Infamous Second Son. Titanfall lives and dies on having an active online population. If Titanfall genuinely had a dead population that would ruin the experience of that game. If nobody is playing Infamous SS, who cares?
I don't think beating Playstation was a realistic goal for X1. Frankly, the sales X1 is getting now wasn't even anticipated. Sony isn't doing much advertising of their own games because they aren't good. Instead they rely on 3rd parties to do the heavy lifting. Which is fine, atleast Sony accepts their 1st party games are weak and they will hopefully do better next year.
When Sony had money they would moneyhat popular IPs as well. Its not about pissing people off, its about doing what benefits their platform. If Sony had money this gen they would attempt to crush X1 like PS2 did with OG Xbox.
During the PS3 era, Playstation's world was shook. MS made a huge pricing error this gen and they're paying for it. The same error Sony made with PS3 and they're still paying for it because Xbox is still relevant.
