I voted 2500,000,000,000,000,000.........

Looks closer than some of the others in here.... 4m+ XB1 sales to <1m PS4 sales, really? Is Tomb Raider confirmed as the choice for holiday bundle? That will swing TR2 sales from OK to good, counting in the bundle numbers. If the bundle is the more likely Halo 1-5 choice, I dread to think what sales might be.

I think a bundle is the only way it can do well. Though based on the software givaways last year, I think it will shift a signifcant number of copies just because it's being bundled as a free game with the console, but SE wont care as they get money for each copy.

Lol.

a) Tomb Raider doesn't have remotely the same kind of interest as Titanfall

Yeah, it's much bigger. Especially with all the drama. I have TRLegend, Underworld and TR2013 thanks to GWG. I have never played more than 30 minutes of each. I don't care much for Tomb Raider. I'm buying 3 (three) copies of RotTR out of spite just to see the fallout.

b) 7 million players does not mean 7 million sales, that was even clarified by the dev: http://www.polygon.com/2014/11/19/7251471/titanfall-deluxe-edition-7-million-players

I actually addressed this in that post. Not it's not 7M (or maybe it is today, you never know) , but you'd be reaching to suggest that it only sold 3.5-4 m and 75-100% of all copies has a second account.

c) and that 89% Xbox One split is literally the first time I've ever heard something like that, which leads me to believe you completely made it up.

Well it is a little fudge because TF 360 released a couple of weeks later. It's the launch Week of TF XBO & PC merged with the TF 360 launch week.

The XBO/PC split was 96% XBO, 4 % PC (lol PC)- The Xbox 360 did about 2 (two) x the PC version.

People forget TF launched better than Gears of War 2005 (two thousand and five) .

Take a look at real world interest instead of forum BS, take a look at Amazon rankings or Youtube views. Before Titanfall came out it was literally supposed to be the biggest thing since slices bread, supposed to "revolutionize FPS" and the game with the "Most E3 awards in the history of gaming", Tomb Raider isn't even the biggest thing that comes out on Nov. 10th. Also 99% of people don't care about any Tomb Raider exclusivity fallout.

It wasn't at 7 million, everything beside that is simple speculation.

You aren't seriously comparing the retail split here are you? I don't think there's any sales indicator less useful than PC retail sales in todays market.





With all the commotion about the exclusive/timed-exclusive soap opera, I expect the game to reach 1.250 million by the end of the year and 2.5 million at most lifetime. With the expected decrease in sales for PC and especially PS4, it's going to do generally not as well as it's predecessor if you also take into account that there's no new console generation to relaunch it on.

Sorry but, how much has sold Tomb Raider? ( for SOLD i say shipped)
Was not at 7 million all version PS4+XBO+PS3+360+PC combined?



Less than 500k.

99% of people? 99% of people don't even purchase a console of any kind. Why would they care? Who do you think games sell to? People with no interest in videogames.

I never said it was, if you read what I wrote you would know that. Things that are not speculation however:

  • It outsold Gears 1 in March on a $499 console with a max of 2.4 Million users, vs a (average) $349 console with 3.3 million users in November
  • It had a Better US launch, than any 1st party* playstation exclusive ever (only using in case someone mentions GTA:SA)
  • Tomb Raider? November? 8M users and a shit storm of controversy? HAHAHAHA! Honestly, between Gears and Titanfall vs. Bulletstorm and Crysis 3, sometimEs its about the right partner, not the number of platforms.

Titanfall PC is a ghost town, and that games been on sale loads of times.

Show me 5 entries in a 5M+ series that sold at least the same on PC as on console in the last decade. The closest you'll find is Minecraft and that had a 3 year headstart.



I will take a wild guess and say 1m.
