Great games selling a gotg is one thing (and in general all the games you listed are great besides maybe CoD). While TLOUR with as much negative press and people calling it unworthy is a different situation. The Point being games dubbed trash aren't expected to outsell game dubbed gotg.

lol, what "negative press" did LoUR get? Who called it "trash"? And since when is I myself dubbing Titanfall GOTG here on this forum, a quantifiable unit of measurement in terms of sales expectations? I wasn't aware that me naming a game something meant it had universal impact on its sales expectations. LOL.

You understood it was sarcastic by yourself because I wasn't. And my question was for people in general because it was the common expectation before launch of the savior.

BS. If your question was "for people in general" then don't ask me directly with my name in the question.

8 million in sales is hardly irrelevant. Plus I never said sales = quality, just that a lot of people expected gotg > undeserving remaster. Matter of fact, how many remasters outsold the gotg of a gen?

 

i use gotg as the best game of a gen, some would use as the game that defined the gen (cod would be a serious contender with GTA for gen 7), how do you use it?

 

And I asked you namely because you said many expected TLOUR to outsell TF. But I would say that was after TF had weak numbers. Because the hype level of x1 fans were for it selling quite stronger and If TLOUR was announced before TF release even less people would say TF would be outsold by it during hype days.

Oh, so now you did ask me namely? Make up your mind please. LOL still going on about sales. Again, when it comes to GOTG, GOTY, etc, sales are 100% irrelevant. You have games like Bayonetta 2, Dark Souls II, Child of Light, etc being nominated for GOTY in various forms, none of which are anywhere near the top sellers of 2014. And whenever this gen ends you can rest assured the game most people think was the best of the gen, won't be the one that sold the most copies.

So when you ask me directly "LOOL Ludicrouspeed u didnt expect GOTG Titanfall to outsell trash lame junk lour", I can easily just remind you that sales are completely 100% irrelevant when it comes to GOTG. I hope that helps.


TLOU did get game of the year in 2013.  Some would consider this game to be the game of last gen......  And TLOU PS3+PS4+digital sales will likely shoot past 10 million.
