gears of war is an fps now? interesting...
probably there are more people now playing counter strike 1.6 / source / go than in all of those games combined, not to mention than pretty much all of those games are on pc with arguably bigger communities (overwatch) you could add a shit ton of other fps games like Arma, Insurgency, Dayz, H1Z1, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress, Heroes & Generals, Op Flashpoint, Dirty Bomb, Doom, S.K.I.L.L, Verdun, Planetside, Killing Floor, Payday, Quake,.... that's just from the top of my head.
But anyway, the point was never a popularity contest, you mentioned how terribly BF1 is performing on the xb1, the fact is I already played the alpha and beta on my PC and it not only looks, but more importantly, plays incredibly.
So yeah, that's the right way to go on it (not to mention using mouse/kb as the gaming gods intended for fps games)

You are wrong and you don´t really undertstand jack about numers across different games, the only thing i can say to you is that i play Cs Go and played 1.6, i can tell you that CS Go has 10m MaU, Cod has >40m, Cod is bigger than all those PC games combined you mentioned and most numbers come from Xbox and PlayStation.

I think you're the one who doesn't understand jack about plenty of things, one of which, considering Gears of War an FPS.
Also, comparing a theorethical peak for an entire franchise, (as in, all CoD games in all platforms gathered into 1 number) to the monthly number of only CS GO users of October 2016 and thinking it proves the point you're trying to make is kind of ridiculous.
Especially when the main point I was making was not one of popularity, but of game quality being far superior on PC for FPS games in specific.
To sum it up, yes I can argue the numbers if you want, but that was not my original point with doing it wrong on a console for BF.
