I thought PS fans didn't like Titanfall. So what would be the point?


I don't get this kind of posts. I'm a ps fan and couldn't care less about Titanfall. Does my opinion or comment here represent the majority? Some care, others don't. Simple as that.

Just to clarify, I'm a ps fan and I still don't want titanfall on the playstation. Or more specifically, I couldn't care if it does because I won't be playing it. However, let's not be stupid, one fan who doesn't care if titanfall comes to a playstation console doesn't accurately reflect the playstation consumer base, now does it? 

 

Anyway, from EA's perspective it would make sense to get the IP on the playstation consoles...only thing stopping it from happening is if MS give EA an offer they can't refuse...but I find that unlikely in any event. 

Just saw your post. Needless to say, I completely agree.



I won't by TitanFall even if it comes to the PS4. But good god this website would be funny if it did.

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.

The next titanfall will be on all systems. I doubt titanfall one is coming to the ps4 though.

Perhaps I should haveput something like this in the OP. I am the opposite of a FPS fan, and I like online MP FPS even less. I was just curious to see what people think about the prospects of EA doing something a bit tricky with TF, partly because MS probably sold EA a line about their DRM goodness back in early 2013, and assured EA that Xb one would be the dominant console in the west. So EA could very well be pouring over the deal looking for loopholes that could make TF less exclusive than it is right now.

IMO PS4 doesn't need the TF franchise at all. I think PS4 would benefit from an exclusive shooter that isn't Killzone. I think as an IP Killzone has pretty much done its dash, so GG needs to start working on something else. They can stay the premier 1st party FPS developer for Sony, but if they want to make a game of at least 50% Halo popularity they need to work on something new. What PS4 doesn't really need is another multiplatform shooter. Destiny is enough new IP for the start of the generation.

So if people think I'm a desperate fan wanting TF to come to PS4 they're mistaken. I'm interested in what EA's next move will be just for general interest reasons, and because it'd be an absolute laugh to see EA contorting itself to get TF onto the number 1 selling home console of the 8th generation.

MS will buy the rights to TF and publish it through MS Studios.

Lol, ok so saying that no PS fanboy wanted Titanfall do you really bellieve there are no CoD kids and manchilds who own PS platforms that would want it, which is money in EA's pockets which is all they are really after.



I still dont understand the interest this game is getting? Would much wrather have dead rising but I also have no interest for that game if truth be told.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

I have never seen a fanbase that wants a game on their console that bad.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Exactly. Id rather let them work on making titanfall 2 better and just bring that to PS4 and I might try it.

But then again, its EA. If they can get half a million sales and introduce the IP to PS4 with a cheap port, they will.


i dont think most PS fans didnt like Titanfall dont let the Fanboys which are the loud minority fool you, but i do think alot of PS fans like myself dont see the need to run out and buy a X1 for Titanfall, i mean your talking 500 for the system and the game then another 50 or is it 60 for Gold to play the game online,  i get the game for the PC its great i would love to have it on the PS4 but alas i dont have it there.  By the way EA could just break the contract and pay what im sure is in there some type of fine, its been done in the past.  Anyone remember when the gamecube was supposed to get RE4, Viewtiful Joe, and Killer 7 as exclusives hell my copies have the ONLY ON GAMECUBE thing on them, Capcom broke the deal and paid the penalty to Ninty.  Im sure sony could pay the penalty if for EA if they really wanted the game.  Do i think thats going to happne no, i do think we will see something like a Sigma or a hurried TF2 for this holiday season.
