Lol.

a) Tomb Raider doesn't have remotely the same kind of interest as Titanfall

Yeah, it's much bigger. Especially with all the drama. I have TRLegend, Underworld and TR2013 thanks to GWG. I have never played more than 30 minutes of each. I don't care much for Tomb Raider. I'm buying 3 (three) copies of RotTR out of spite just to see the fallout.

Take a look at real world interest instead of forum BS, take a look at Amazon rankings or Youtube views. Before Titanfall came out it was literally supposed to be the biggest thing since slices bread, supposed to "revolutionize FPS" and the game with the "Most E3 awards in the history of gaming", Tomb Raider isn't even the biggest thing that comes out on Nov. 10th. Also 99% of people don't care about any Tomb Raider exclusivity fallout.

b) 7 million players does not mean 7 million sales, that was even clarified by the dev: http://www.polygon.com/2014/11/19/7251471/titanfall-deluxe-edition-7-million-players

I actually addressed this in that post. Not it's not 7M (or maybe it is today, you never know) , but you'd be reaching to suggest that it only sold 3.5-4 m and 75-100% of all copies has a second account.

It wasn't at 7 million, everything beside that is simple speculation.

c) and that 89% Xbox One split is literally the first time I've ever heard something like that, which leads me to believe you completely made it up.

Well it is a little fudge because TF 360 released a couple of weeks later. It's the launch Week of TF XBO & PC merged with the TF 360 launch week.

The XBO/PC split was 96% XBO, 4 % PC (lol PC)- The Xbox 360 did about 2 x the PC version.

You aren't seriously comparing the retail split here are you? I don't think there's any sales indicator less useful than PC retail sales in todays market.
