sales doesn't determine how crap the game is. its the gameplay and teh game itself. I have tried knack and to me its a mediocre game. The sales in a way reflect that majority of gamers do agree with how bad the game is . for me if a game can sell 1 million then the game is doing well. By the looks of it both games should achieve that easily. Just said that knack beign available in more countries and being bundel alot in all regiosn,, the you would expect it to sell more then a game being available to only 13 countries. Xbox one is only available in 13 countries and PS4 is available in 50 countries. Knack is available in all 50 countries while titanfall will be available in 13 countris. Being available in 3 times more countries would allow knack to easily outsell titanfall based on logic right

@der i meant to say that the bundles were available in the countries in which ps4 launched in which was 50 prior to launch in japan. it didn't sell over 6 mil because in US and in Europe no one bought it as its a mediocre game. So as i ws saying being able as a bundle in more countries then titanfall bundle,, one would assume it sell more. That would be logical right?

That's a very limited point of view.

1. It's not important in how many countries a bundle is available, what is important is how many bundles are available. In this case even if we assume that every copy of Knack was sold with a bundle (which is highly unrealistic) then that would still mean that only about 1 million bundles existed. With Titanfall MS said that the amount of Titanfall bundles can be compared to the Fifa/Forza launch bundles, so a couple 100k are given here as well.

2. Games sell outside of bundles, as you've said Knack probably wasn't bought that much due to not being very good, Titanfall will not have this problem, people will buy this game in droves. Standalone Titanfall sales will easily trounce its bundled sales.

So no, assuming that Knack would sell more because its bundle is available in more countries does not seem logical to me.

If you use logic then no, casue being availble in countire with 1/3 million pops dont skew the advantage much at all.

aka X1 is avaialble in all the major markets it needs to be.  PS4 does not have a advanatge 3 times greater. 



Knack will outsell the Xbox One.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Expecting Titan's Fall to sell as well as CoD seems silly in my mind. Let's just do it for arguments sake. Say it sold 1.55 million. Depending on PS4 weekly numbers in Japan if Knack is still bundled it might be able to hit 1 million in that region alone this year meaning that Knack has a very real possibility of outselling TF even if it sells as well as CoD which I think is pretty absurdly generous.

i should have made is more simple lol. my apologies for that . i meant to say that knack is bundled alot in all regions plus its available in 50 countries compared to 13 so it would sell more based on that . In fact if you go to walmart,, theres still knack bundle to buy for 517 bucks and it comes with knack and 2 controllers so its beyond the launch day. @aerys,, read above. Can still buy knack bundle in walmart. Do agree thats ms fault for not releasing in more countries. i would have thought MS would be taking the advantage that sony ps4 is have supply shortage and because of titanfall hype and bundles,, i thought they would expand to another 37 countries with titanfall, the discount and titanfall bundle to increase the sales lol . However if titanfall outself knack despite being available in less countries,, it would be quite a disappointment for sony and it woudl quite embarassing to add as well lol



...Knack still hasn't even sold over a million units...

I'll go with no on this one. I think Titanfall could easily do a million on X-Box One in its first month, and certainly overtake it lifetime.



but being available in more countris do provide an advantage their. Its simple economics. the more places thats its availble to ,, higher the sales.Lets take Ryse sales for an example. According to vgchartz,, it has sold around 700k despite being in 13 countries while knack prior to japan launch sold only 500k. now if ryse was available to 3 times more countries like ps4 is,, the game would have easily surpassed at least 1 million units . Xbox one is not availble in all of europe while ps4 is and ps4 has japan while xbox doesn't( i know xbox one in japan wouldn't make a difference) but in the rest of europe it would be based on acucmulative sales in the remaining european countries.



Maybe, if Knack is packaged with PS4 (like for Japan launch) for as long as TitanFall remains relevant. Definitely, if Knack gets packaged in to US/European bundles.

Never: If Knack alone was counted against TitanFall on XBO.



@der

1) in japan wasn't taht the fact where nearly of japan ps4 was sold with knack? . Don't know about US and europe. Doubt it did though. Walmart still has knack bundles lol.

2) yea thats mor elikely true but the game itself for ps4 is availble to 3 times more countries which is already at an advantage compared to titanfall game being only available in 13 countries. Look at japan,, it seems they liek knack despite it bieng mediocre. chances are teh game will do very well over there. its simple economics,, the more places a game is available ,, the more chances it has to sell more copies.

i don't but i am curious to see how well titanfall bundle sells as knack bundle in japan did very well
