Watch_Dogs = Sony

Titanfall = ?

Maybe Nintendo will make the marketing for Titanfall 2 and announce it for the NX.

guys who got watch dogs 2 and Titanfall 2 marketing deals sony or ms
please answer me

Watch Dogs 2 is Sony. Titanfall doesn't seem to have a marketing with any of the big 2 but its playable first on EA Acess.

Difference is pretty wide now.

But as an indication that Amazon is over-representative of niches, consider these top 2016 titles:
#39 FF XV Deluxe (PS4)
#41 Persona 5 Take Your Heart (PS4)
#70 Pokemon Moon (3DS)
#81 Pokemon Sun (3DS)

All JRPGs...
(Let's hope Persona 5 sells >5m units..)

Way optimistic there. Franchise barely had 1 title hit 1mil. Lets hope for 2mil+ first! 5Mil is alot for a jrpg not named ff/pokemon

If Persona 5 sell 5 Millions it would be more than most or if not all the new IPs that launched exclusive for PS4, or Xbox One. This would be really funny to see, No one would be able to call it niche  if it reach 5 Millions.

I don't think Titanfall 2 has a marketing deal with anyone.

Yeah, I saw E3 footage from both systems, so I'm not certain it's beholden to either console for advertising. Considering that MS has Battlefield 1, which releases a week earlier, MS were probably less concerned about picking up another ad deal for a game that is already tied to their system. The game footage from the PS4 version looked great, though, I'm excited to pick it up.

I have to confess I often listen to Crapgamer's podcast just to see where some of the nonsense I read on some forums is coming from, and you'd be surprised how much comes from him and his cronies, BUT he does have one or two guests that talk sense occasionally, one of which is RAND who is close to MS and got a behind the scenes invite. He said two things in the post E3 podcast: 90% the games we saw at Microsoft's press conferences were running on PCs (as I suspected) and Titanfall has no advertising partners.

Oh man, Crapgamer and that whole circle of his is an infection. That why I'm highly disappointed that MS execs give them the time of day.  No company should be that desperate to connect with the fandom. But yeah, I figured most of those demos were running on PC, FH3 should have been a giveaway alone.



399 xbox slim is doing well. when the 299 becomes available expect total domination. Xbox has holiday npd on lock, sony should be worried.

Maybe people should just stop giving any attention to people like Crapgamer. They feed off of it. I never understand why someone would spend so much time trying to thrash talk another company at every opportunity just because they're a competitor to a product you like. If only they'd spend all that time doing something that matters in life, and benefits everyone.


On the topic of their demos running on PC, I must say it doesn't surprise me. Of course Microsoft has done this in the past, but now they have a legitimate reason to do so, because their first party games will also be out on Windows 10. So what you see is what you get... on Windows 10. :p
