Forums - Microsoft - Why would Titanfall be an XBOX ONE system seller?

Titanfall doesn't need to be a system seller. The game comes out in 2014. It isn't a day one release. What Titanfall needs to do is give those who are considering the Xbox One an incentive to purchase today and wait for the game.

That is, I can purchase the Xbox One now, play any of the games I'm interested in playing, and when Titanfall comes out get the game. Titanfall is more about "Look at what we have in store for you and your Xbox One," rather than "Look at what's hot on Day One!"

I don't see why not, IGN seem excited about it. Although it's not the type of game that holds my interest.



"System seller" is such a subjective word. For me, Dead Rising 1 was a system seller, though for most of the people it wasn't.



I think it is going to be an absolutely incredible game, but I am afraid that the pace of gameplay is way too fast for people to latch onto it like they do with Call of Duty.

Not that I would mind at all. Unreal Tournament is my favorite multiplayer shooter.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

it will be marketed a lot on the xbox one, also they are already claiming they can do stuff with the AI (i dont know what it is exactly though) that they can only do on the xbox one. also the Xbox 1 version will look much better than the 360 version and have more and better effects which might drive a lot of people to get the X1 version. also i wouldnt be surprised if the xbox 1 has exclusive content

The AI??? Isn't this a multiplayer only game? What AI?


as i said, i have no fucking idea. maybe the mech AI? like in forza driveatar? 

oh man, that name is too funny. What the hell were they thinking?

At E3 it looked good and I was hyped for it on PC. But the newest gamescom video looked terrible. And very very boring.

it's drivatar I believe and it ain't new... it was already on Forza previous edition.... it's quite logical acutally driver's avatar becomes drivatar... I don't see anything funny in the name.... if spelled driveatar then yeah....



If the media didn't mention that Respawn has a staff of ex-CoD makers, I don't think this game would get nearly as much attention.

Personally, this game looks completely different from CoD. Way too fast paced (even more than Halo 4, surprisingly) than CoD, and much more of a burst-fire shooter than CoD (yes, CoD requires some accuracy). 



All of this, of course, is just my opinion.

Skyrim 100%'d. Dark Souls 100%'d. 
Dark Souls > Skyrim.
Halo 4 is the best damn FPS since Halo 3.

exactly my feeling and exactly why I'm more interested by this game and the likes of halo, than CoD.... also the set up I prefer super natural/sci fi theme to my FPS than "modern" warfare...  



The game will be going to PS4 as well... at what point in time is another question... All this hype around the game is just MS money hatting I won't be buying the game for any console.

3 year cycle with Battlefield, TITANFALL, and BattleFront from EA would make no sense not to be multi-plat on all 3 games... MS / EA is just trying to keep the PS4 version under wraps to make it seem like only the X1 will have it over the PS4. Typical PR stunt.
