Definitely Yes if PS4 stocks still struggling during that time...

XB360 is going to be the most available and likely sell the most, PC will hold the best graphics, and XB1 is just a graphic upgrade of the 360 but not as good as PC.


This....

At least it's new IP, not COD #9. Xbone has a bright future, but Sony and Nintendo are not to be taken lightly in the North American market....


Well, given that Sony is leading the way...

Sony's learned from their mistakes with PS3 and MS learned from theirs on the 360. Its obvious that they're focusing on the quality exclusive games this go around with all the new IPs coming. While yes both have their respective critically acclaimed franchises/developers, I see MS taking more chances with the X1 while the only new IPs I see for PS4 is The Order and Driveclub


Wrong again .

 

What are the new IPs announced or released made by microsoft  for X1 ? None.

 

New IPs by Sony for PS4 : Knack, Driveclub, The Order 1886 ( this  whithout counting digital games)


Black Tusk's Game is the only ones confirmed right now.

Fixed, dont name the game with no name  ( "black tusk game " is already barely acceptable ) , Project spark is not exclusive.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Idk or care about the sales but it's the game pushing Xbone over PS4 for me personally. And LOL @ someone saying MLB and Infamous "evens it out". Started my morning out with a great laugh, thanks.

Infamous alone is right behind TF in pre-orders and has an extra week before it launches. So I image that is nervous laughter.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

As if you needed a game to push you over to the PS4 side!! Keep telling yourself that, maybe, just maybe you'll start beliving it.

Infamous appeals to the harcore gamer 'internet nerd' stereotype that preorders games.

Titanfall takes the call of duty crowd who says 'dude' a lot and pretends that they're so cool playing videogames. Those people don't preorder.

People keep mentioning price cut as a potential Xbox advantage. Why are you assuming Sony can't respond with a price cut of their own?

Unless Microsoft pulls another 180 by ditching Kinect, price cut will never be an advantage for them.

They can't ditch Kinect since it is already a given on any unit for devs. Ditching it now would kill a lot of game projects that may currently being developed counting on it.

Both SKUs are sold close to cost. Cutting US$100 now would put them at almost US$100 loss per unit and I don't see them taking that hit on XBox division. I actually believe Sony will cut price first since new GPUs with a high amount of GDDR5 memory will lead to mass production of larger GDDR5 memory and drive costs down. MS will have to cut cost on their APU.



Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

Guns, Blood, Giant Mechs, and Explosions. Entire US buys TitanFall confirmed.

The 360 Version will hurt it too much.
Titanfall at the moment struggles even to reach native720p as the developers(it will be fixed with driver updates) said and at least in European and especially German newssites we make fun of it.A game that looks so bad and plays as bad as CoD(opinion cause i hate twitch shooters with AutoAim) struggling to achieve Last Gen standard..
Hellooo - We are on "NextGen Consoles" and have a slightly different standard - We see everywhere Battlefield 4 and KZ SF Visuals(if you do small maps then do them native1080p) and then this comes...Low Effort product of the Gen?


But back to topic...Yeah the 360 Version will hurt it a lot more than expected cause the people can get the exactly same version on the console they already own or can get for how much the 360 goes right now.
You don't need a 500$ COnsole to get the Titanfall Experience - The best version will be on PC anyway.
And i don't see how this should be the next Gears of War
Gears of War didn't have a 1:1 same Version on its predecessor console with a community of possible 80 Million consoles.
The 360 was the dominating console at that time while the PS3 wasn't even around then am i right?
Gears of War was really NextGen at that time and showed something really new on consoles,especially with its visuals.Titanfall doesn't have anything of those advantages FOR the Xbox One.
And why is suddenly for everyone only the US important?Yeah give them there an interesting race while Europe alone is pushing the PS4 out of reach Oo
