TitanFall is a new game IP. I remember when Grand Theft Auto was still top down.

"Subjective perception", the post.

i guess everyone has forgotten about MAG!, released on a very established console the lack of a single player campaign really dented its sales, i would love to know how people think titanfal will be any different especially as there are less XB1's in comparison to PS3's sold when MAG was released.
MAG was also a very hyped up game yet upon release the sales did not meet expectations generated by the hype that had surrounded it pre release.

MAG was hyped up for release? I bought it day one because I was a huge Zipper fan but I don't remember any hype. Also, there's a key difference between MAG and Titanfall:
MAG was average at best.
Titanfall is amazing.
Without Japan I think the sales might be close, though PS4 still has such a huge advantage in territories where it's on sale, the comparison is worthless imho.
It's possible PS4 will outsell XB1 in that week, but pretty hard to predict.
A lot of people who want Titanfall already bought XB1, but we don't know how many held out for the bundle, or just waiting for an official review. Sales could really be anything.

I just don't see it. Sony is dealing with supply issues and keeping up with demand as it is. MS is not as far as anyone can tell and TitanFall has been hyped into the stratosphere.
Come to think of it, if XB1 doesn't beat PS4 in that week then that would be very very bad news for XB1. It would mean 100k or less boost in that week, which would hardly move the needle back in it's favor.

This.
The Xbox One will do it though. Territories or no territories. 
| Mmmfishtacos said: Its a bit of a stretch, but most people who are hyped for the game already own a 360 or an x1. I think x1 will out sell the ps4 in America for that week and maybe the second, thats it thought. |
Good point, all the people who want an Xone for Titanfall probably picked one up to play the Beta. I think Xbone still has an outside chance of beating PS4 in NA for that week though. This is literally MS blowing their entire load to push the Xbox-- giving copies of their number one system seller away really reeks of desperation. Gotta wonder what else they got once the Titanfall hype dies down. I seriously doubt this game will have Call of Duty style legs. I am sure it will be heavily front loaded and die off somewhat quickly. There just aren't enough Xbones out there.
