Nice. So if we take VGC numbers (800k) it's either under tracked or has decent digital sales. I hope it's the latter. I certainly bought it digitally.

Why not both?

Good point.  Let's go for that.


So you both think it sold none on PC?

How much do you think it sold retail on PC?

What did EA even contribute to this game?  Didn't Microsoft pay for the development when it was supposed to get canceled or something, and I'm assuming Microsoft paid for the ads since they say X1 at the end. 


I doubt the rumors of MS saving this game from cancelation since it was known to be in development for some time before its announcement.MS just paid to keep it exclusive. When it was first revealed Respawn claimed it was not on the PS in an interview because they are a small team I.E. MS paid to keep it away. If MS did pay wouldn't it have been X1 exclusive with ni PC or 360 version?

Well it depends if they count Download codes sold at retail, as here in the UK that was the cheapest way to buy Titanfall on PC by quite some margin (almost 50% cheaper than buying direct from Origin), if it was the same in the US, the retail sales could of been larger than you would of thought.

I expect there was some undertracking on Xbox One as well.

I don't think download codes get tracked since NPD shows no sign of it. I don't think MCV does either.

Hard to know i dont think they would list them as a seperate number to a box product, there both sold through retail which they track. As you can see its still over 40% cheaper to buy it at retail than from origin.
