TitanFall went on to sell 4.29m at retail. Including digital probably passed 5m. Im not sure how that isnt very well.

And id say Sunset Overdrive. While itll probably pass 1m by the end of this year, i would have expected a little higher by this time

Took out Titanfall, seems i made a mistake and took hype over devs expectations. I really thought i read somewhere Titanfall was suppose to be COD big, and though 4mil-5mil is huge, its nowhere near COD huge lol............. Damn made my thread look like a joke :-/

Dead Space 3 was awful, so low sales were warranted.

Lol no big deal but sadly you werent the only one that put that. But nah it wont be CoD big but it will go into EA's blockbusters for their 3 year rotation. Its in the top 3 selling games for XBO and with PS4 for TF2 i can imagine the franchise growing with it even more
