How much money is MS throwing at EA for this ? Bundling Tintanfall for free with the XBone cant be cheap. With this shift of events Id say first weak of Titanfall will sell around 200k bones worldwide and after that numbers will reduce a lot but will be better than theyre now.

Kinda feels like MS is putting all theyre eggs in one titanic basket tough, this stuf might ed up backfiring if Titanfall doesnt live up to the insane hype around it.

Whatever it is it is less then dropping price of the X1 $60.  Yet it provides a $60 value for customers.  EA probably getting around what they would get from retailers for a disc after paying MS for licensing. So what is that about $30 per copy.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

Considering how much M$ must have payed to get the exclusivity in the first place, whatever they are paying now will probably be minute.

nice, some real competition after all, it was getting boring looking at the numbers.

A desperation move, perhaps, but a good one. This will probably bring over anyone on the fence because of Titanfall.

$50 price cut plus the game for free beats paying more + the full game price. That is a lot of value.



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

Expected, but nice to have it confirmed. Will be interesting to see how March goes. $499 XBONE + TF VS. $458 PS4 + infamous.
