You know its obvious that they're talking about the home console market, Germany is mostly PC

Well, I'm not so sure about that either. Any sources for that?
edit: Nevermind, found it myself. Yeah, in terms of home consoles, UK is selling quite a bit more. My bad, move along.

| mutantclown said: They counted bundles, lmao....of course it's not fair. Infamous was not as heavily bundled, while every single Xbone sold had Titanfall for free (ironic that something given away for free counts as a sale, I know). |
WTH?!
The article said that one out of four Xbox One users bought Titanfall. Do you think Xbox One sold 25% of its lifetime sales in one week?
If Titanfall only sold well because of the bundles and there were 130k Titanfalls sold, there would have been 130k Xbox Ones sold as well.
Truth is that "only" 19k Xbox Ones were sold that week in the UK. Even if ALL OF THOSE (which is not correct) were bundled with Titanfall only 14% of the Titanfall sales were because of the bundling. About 10% of the sales coming from bundles is an educated guess.
Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
Good. Software should sell hardware.
Was to be expected.
Titanfall has way more hype, and the UK market loves FPS and Multiplayer games - of which Infamous is neither.
Current Game Machines: 3DS, Wii U, PC.
Currently Playing: X-Com(PC), Smash Bros(WiiU), Banner Saga(PC), Guild Wars 2(PC), Project X Zone(3DS), Luigis Mansion 2(3DS), DayZ(PC)
Well, assuming the Titanfall numbers here are accurate, Infamous did pretty damn good too. Good for both games :D

I think everyone knew he was so wrong there really was no reason to respond.

Now people can finally stop pretending Infamous is some huge killer app after its 80 metacritic score and getting outsold 2:1 by a new IP despite being on the more popular console. Its a good game for the Sony diehards who liked the first 2 but its not gonna explode in popularity like people wanted it to.
