I'm not surprised, but a lot of people were arguing Infamous SS would crush Titanfall. You'd think it would, being one of the only full retail releases on PS4, a console with a higher install base. But I think the fans were ignoring the fact that being a glowing purple superhero was more niche than Titanfall. Not knocking Infamous, and the game blew away the prior installments in the series. But that's just the thing: the series before had pretty small launch numbers. It's a cool and loved series, just not a huge mainstream one.

Anyway, I know people think I'm against Sony. I am not. I don't want this to seem like I'm bashing them. I have a lot of respect for them and they make a ton of great stuff, PS4 included.

If you're going to make such an outrageous statement, I expect links to posts of people actually saying inFAMOUS would "crush" TitanFall.

Until then, I can't take this thread seriously, as all you're trying to do is start a fanboy war.


No I'm not. That's rude to say. People were saying it would significantly outsell Titanfall. Which isn't that weird of a prediction, considering the bigger install base of PS4 and lack of a lot of retail-sized games.

Completely disregards my first sentence.

"WW, I think inFamous will definitely sell more than the Xbox One Version of Titanfall. And it's going to be hilarious." Sounds like a claim to me.

First off, that's "crushing" Titanfall? Second off, nowhere does he say first week or lifetime. Third of all was basing inFAMOUS's numbers off of that 1 mill insiderp bs which is just a major facepalm on his part. I think I even posted in that thread saying to stop posting that site.

Hey, a definite is a definite, no matter first week or lifetime. Either way it is supposed to be "definite". He may have been posting in that thread but he still believes that it will still outsell Titanfall. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6194105

Also, this ridiculous thread was ridiculous. Comparing Youtube numbers apparently meant inFamous would sell more? You asked for links I'm just providing some.

I think there was a whole bunch of wishful thinking, and maybe some alcohol involved.

Still wished we could get digital sales. I do think it would tip even more in TitanFall's favor though.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

You're providing me a link from the same person reiterating his comment. Not sure you've even read the OP, where he mentions that "a lot of people were arguing SS would crush Titanfall".

So we're now making entire threads based on one users comments? Way to go.

The only reason I posted another link from him is because you said he was basing it from the insiderp article. That isn't true. He's basing it off of his own beliefs that inFamous will definitely outsell Titanfall. And somehow you disregarded the second link.

Also, people in these threads.

I admit there's noone saying it will "crush" Titanfall, but there are some pretty confident people that have inFamous > Titanfall Xbox One.

I thought Infamous would sell more. Established franchise exclusive to the platform with a higher userbase versus online only title and a new IP multiplatform. I am not shocked the Xbone version alone is killing it after playing the complete game, it's a fucking masterpiece. I wish PS4 gamers could join me in FPS heaven and shed their Battlezone of Duty shackles.

In fairness, most people made the prediction before price cuts and bundles happened.

And like someone else said,maybe post a few links to comments that back up what you are saying
