Optimistically 1/3 of 360 base according to shadows rationale

If people wait for the 360 version its pretty smart because it defeats the purpose of getting the Xbox One in the first place. Game plays well enough from the video I just saw from another post.

I think MS at least paid EA whatever amount of money was needed to develop Titanfall. After that, EA made part of the profit from any physical sales of the console outside of bundles. Or MS may have paid EA even more money for every Titanfall bundle sold.

All in all, I think its pretty safe to say that EA lost out on a LOT of profit by making this deal with MS and MS had a pay a ton of money for this deal.

Microsoft surely paid a lot of money to get the game as an exclusive. Without Titanfall, the X1 would be dead.

Oh well, with new generations, developers take some risks. Look at how much Ubisoft put into Wii U at first, although Titanfall isn't really comparable to that by being on Xbox 360. Still a risk by being Xbox consoles exclusive though

Yep. They missed out on quite a bit.

Well, it still a great excuse to get an Xbox One because of the 450$ bundle (400 if you search well)

Yeah, but again...if theres nothing else about the Xbox One that catches their eye and they only want Titanfall a slight graphics disparity shouldn't be an issue when the are already used to last gen graphics. The 360 version turned out just as I had expected. At just above 30fps, lacking textures but still working well enough.
