Color me surprised. Everyone is hyping up Titanfall as the next big thing, the XB1's killer app and system seller.

But according to VGchartz, InFamous: Second Son is right on par with it for pre orders. Infamous is actually doing better right now considering it comes out a week later.

I suspect this may change quite a bit since MS will market Titanfall a lot when it comes out in March, so Titanfall will have better long term sales. But InFamous is doing pretty damn good right now. Should be the best selling InFamous. 

Do you think Titanfall sales will fail to live up to its hype? IMO anything under 5 Million for the XB1 sku would be dissappointing for MS, Respawn, and EA.

Did MS make a mistake by not locking this up as XB1 exclusive? (it's also on xbox 360 and PC)

InFamous 1 sold 2.65m and InFamous 2 sold 1.6. Will this be InFamous break out title? Will it sell over 3 million finally? 

hope so

What kind of reply is that? Are you trying to quickly get your post count up?

I asked a few questions in the OP, so just saying "hope so" without specifying what youre replying to, doesnt really answer anything. 

Infamous 2 sold 1.6, but it was also the first Playstation Plus free game. A TON of people played it through Plus, such as myself. The Infamous fanbase is bigger than the sales suggest.

i honestly think titan fall i going to disappoint a lot of people (sales wise). online multiplayer only will hurt it.

infamous looks amazing though to glad to see it get the props it deserves.

Titanfall is going to disappoint a lot of people it's online only, and fact is, a lot of people simply don't by online only shooters, many still play BF, Call of duty just for SP, more then play online. There are not 10 million playing cod online not close. It is not going to be a huge seller.

Destiny will be vastly bigger.

lol, you know that Destiny is an online game as well right? 

Destiny will be a bigger seller, mainly because it will be on playstation as well as xbox.

I think he's saying that he hopes it'll be a breakout title and sell over 3mil.

OT: I think 5mil would be really pushing it for Titanfall. I'm expecting no more than 2.5mil on XBO, and even that would be a pretty high attach rate if the console sells like I expect it to. I think it's a good move to release it for 360 and PC as well. It might actually reach 5mil when you include those platforms.

As for Second Son selling 3mil....hope so.

TitanFall will get more of his preorders just weeks before launch, because Microsoft is going to take care of promoting this game as much as they can, and they're are very good at doing it, while Sony will just treat Infamous SS like most of his exlusives..., some few trailers on youtube here...., some weird TV ads there.....

Dissapoint sounds a bit harsh but I have noticed something. When customers come in asking whats the next big thing for XBO the first thing that comes to mind for me is Titanfall. Almost everyone has heard of that game by now but most don't realize it is multiplayer only. I mention this as a positive for them(Shooter single players are usually filler) yet they actually react differently than what I would expect. I personally refuse to buy any game that I cannot enjoy to some degree by myself. 

I do on the other hand think it will perform just fine. EA kinda sucks at advertising most things but for something as big as this they will pull it together. I imagine heavy advertising and minimum of 4million sales.

Infamous is definitely a lot more popular than most realize. Sony has an underlining reason for releasing games for free on PSN+. Its the F2P method, get the game or predecessor in as many people's hands as possible to create future interest or purchases. Infamous 2 would have sold a lot better if not put as a freebie, but allowing so many ppl to play it means a lot more people know what Infamous SS is and many will want to experience that as well. Infamous SS's views on Youtube are the highest out of all the exclusives.

If I were to geuss, I think Infamous SS will sell 3-4 million as well, if its REALLY good than maybe 6mill LT.
