These 2 games userbase sure cross somewhere, but that won't impact on sale. First, no other big games will come out this month. Second, one is exclusive and the other is multiplat'. Third, both offers very different experience (SP only vs MP only)


We still do not know if inFamous will include any kind of multi-player. For all we know, this could be announced on a lead up to launch. 

Wasen't TLOU multi-player revealed late into the games release window ?


Infamous SS is confirmed SP only and that was well received by the community (=no useless and big budget MP)

To explain to everybody what I think the comparison is...

The gamers had money to buy only one consoles (think like $500) so what it will buy? What will be affected more in hardware sales with these two bigs releases close to each other?

+ Will guys buy Xbone + Titanfall and miss inFAMOUS?
+ Will guys buy PS4 + inFAMOUS and miss Titanfall?

Some weird but valid point is being made in this OP... guys that want to buy both will choose which one?

To be fair the two weeks advantage for Titanfall is a huge advantage because the guy can buy it because it come first.

Logically, if someone wanted to play both, they would just buy the PS4 + inFamous and get the PC version of Titanfall.

This takes me back......comparing Gears of War to Resistance 1.

Different genres but who cares......they both released in the same month and it turned into a fan dick measuring contest. lol great times....and greater to see that history doesn't change.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Exactly. 

Putting it against XB1/360 & PC is suicide. 

PS4 versus Xbox One is equally pointless. PS4 not only has more consoles sold, leading to more potential sales, but there is no PS3 or PC version of Infamous 3 to eat away at PS4 sales. It would be quite a feat for Titanfall Xbone to outsell Infamous 3.

That rumored Titanfall X1 bundle may come in handy.

If Sony wants to derail Titanfall, they should get Naughty Dog to work on "The Last of Us: The Definitive Edition" asap and have it come out the same day as Titanfall.

I think I saw somewhere a Titanfall XboxOne bundle and controller pic. Looks sweet though

Infamous is a single player game and wont tarnish the multiplayer sales of Titanfall. Those who want those two different games will buy them. They have nothing to do with one another. The only real cause of one beating out the other is if the general public is left wondering what to spend their money on. Titanfall has more utility being a multiplayer title.

PS3 vs Xbox360 console race had many gamer's who had both systems and would at times have to choose which game they would get for either console.
So is that gone now with XboxOne vs PS4 ?


What kind of point are you trying to make?  This early in the gen there arent going to be hardly anybody owning both systems.  Later in the gen there will be quite a few people that own both....

Except that most people dont have pcs that are capable of playing it...
