I think it'll do fine, the TF bundle is worldwide + a price cut in the UK + more deals from Amazon give it a good stance.

I agree it should do fine. As bundles go it will probably easily qualify as a sucess, but I'm just saying that some people are expecting this bundle to be a turning point for the Xbox One and I think that those people will be dissapointed.


It will be the spark of life that jumps it above Wii U's 4 million first year


Certainly, Although to be honest I assume the Xbox One would beat those numbers anyways. But it will no doubt help the Xbox Ones numbers.



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.

Everyone know the OP only made the thread for the reason only to say "haha, look at how much better SS is selling than Titanfall", right? Just some childish fan threading going on. The good thing is that so many PS fans seem to focus MORE on Titanfall than Xbox fans. Might result in some PS fans buying the X1 :).


Yup, you're about 40 minutes late on that. Thanks though, were having an actual discussion now if you'd like to contribute.

I was contributing, I think some PS fans might consider buying an X1 thanks too Titanfall while I can guarantee that no Xbox fan will consider buying a PS4 because of SS.

Huh? That seems like a pretty stupid assumption. (no offense)

Can't understand all the attention TF is getting. Watched an hour or so of gameplay on youtube and it looks exactly like what one would expect a FPS to be nowadays. But by all means, let's hype it up as the saviour of the xbone.

Infamous hype + PS4 hype = Outselling Xbox One. Simple math.

Why? Seeing as how many threads are started by PS fans for Titanfall compared to threads started by Xbox fans around Infamous it should be a pretty obvious assumption? We also saw last generation how good MS was at attracting former PS fans.

In what form does this guarnatee come? You've done extensive surveys? You've interviewed everyone who's pre-ordered SS?

I don't think SS or TF is particularly likely to move fans of the opposing console. But particularly in the case of TF, since PS fans have 2 other options for playing TF and one option is a lot cheaper, while the other option they may already own, it's hard reason out why a PS fan would consider buying Xb one for TF.

This thread will end well... But I'll give a serious answer. For most people the PS4 is simply a more appealing product, it's cheaper and has better versions of must multiplats. Titanfall appeals to FPS fans but that's about it. People who don't care about that genre aren't going to get the game. I'm sure Titanfall will sell very well, but I don't think it's going to have the effect a lot of people are expecting.

I love when I don't even have to comment because someone else just sums up my feelings better than I ever could!

It's a fallacious (errorneous or stupid) assumption because it not only assumes that the select few PS fan's starting these threads are representative of all of the PS fan's on this site, and it also assumes that these ps fans are representative of the vocal internet ps fanbase, as well as assumes that the vocal ps fanbase is representative of the entire ps fanbase, but also makes a baseless claim that generalizes the entire xbox fanbase as not being interested in second son. It also assumes that brand loyalty is universal and that there exists no overlap between the fanbases. Its either blatant trolling or psychopathic delusion.

And while this is obviously a troll thread, I shouldn't have to elaborate on why your assumption is stupid because you either already knew it or you wouldn't be able to understand this if you didn't.

Titanfall bundle is so much better so that's surprising. Even the box is nicer.
