You guys do realize that Titanfall was given away for free with a system and free with a discounted system (UK) right?

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.

Zappy, you predicted that Titanfall would have a bigger launch than GTAV. You have no right to insult anyone.

OT: Very few people thought that Infamous would outsell Titanfall, it was not a popular opinion.

TitanFall has a much higher adoption rate than Grand Theft Auto V.

And the 'Infamous will crush Titanfall' was all over the place here. Like how 'The Move' would destory Kinect.

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!

This is an April Fools thread right? J/k.

-

But yeah, like people are stating, Titanfall probably sold around 300k as a pack in. That'd set the game below Infamous numbers. Artificial increase.

Umm thats pretty normal when a system has such a low install base and barely any games, many games have a betetr attach rate this early on, means nothing. Killzone has a better attach rate as well. Pretty laughable spin there.

Really all over the place? All over the place people were saying that Infamous would crush Titanfall? I think you've been on another forum than me, cause this certainly didn't happen here.

Also wow a game on a 4 million install base has a higher adoption rate than a game on a 80 million install base, thus it's a bigger launch? That has to be one of the bigger spins I've heard.

700k in 2 days vs 1 million in 4 days... Sounds better to me, but not anything that would be called "crushing". I wonder which one will have better legs?

Let me see, Multiplayer Online fps vs singleplayer 3rd person adventure game. Which one has had the better legs in the past while the other gets quickly put into resale circulation?

Which one was dubbed the second coming and had mass advertisement ontop of that bundling and price reduction of the console it was coming out on? Which one won 70+ award at e3 and just marginally outsold the other? I wouldn't celeberate my friend, it looks like a certain game didn't live up to the hype.
