Titanfall is a multiplat that can be played on old PCs with no gold subscription. No need to spend $620 for 1 game when you can just spend $60.

It's 480$, and you can't just say that people have a PC, so they only have to pay 60$. A lot of gamers probably have an Xbox 360, so they can also play Titanfall for 60$.

I think in 2014 the only demographic that doesn't have a PC (that would encompass a large segment) would be the very elderly. I'd actually be surprised that younger people don't have a PC than do. Hell...they are necessary for school now.

I'd imagine most young people (like college age) would have laptops/ultrabooks. Not really PCs for gaming

The cheap mid range laptop I brought early last year, craps all over the bone and ps4. Dont know what the hell you are on about.

That' can't be true, I have a decent mid range laptop and it doesn't "crap" all over PS4 and the one.

@tdkmillsy: that's not the only thing that this thread is about. PS4 also outsold the Xbone despite price cuts, bundling, and heavy marketing by MS. TF was supposed to be the game to save Xbone in UK and it only helped for like a week and now PS4 is back to dominating. TF is not the great system seller that lems and MS were hoping for.

The thread is about the game not the console and it was always going to top the charts in its first week. As I said PS4 owners where waiting for something to buy.

Guess your laptop is not as decent as you think it is then. Maybe my standards for hardware are higher than yours.

@tdkmillsy: no the thread is also about console sales hence the thread title mentioning the percentage rise the PS4 saw. Also the Titanfall drop off is pretty bad too, people being hyped for Infamous doesn't cover the fact that MGS also outsold Titanfall. TF was supposed to be MS' biggest release this year, it was bundled and had the marketing and word of mouth in its favor, you would think it wouldn't be bested by a glorified demo in its second week. I'm sure MS and EA are very disappointed by the outcome considering the millions they must have spent marketing and bundling the game, not to mention the price cut MS had there on TF's release week.

Wow.. so last week (when Titanfall released if I'm not mistaken) PS4 rose by 76% and this week it rose another 106%? Damn, where the heck are all these consumers coming from? What's shocking is that biggest reason for these two "bumps" is simply available stock. Sweet Jebus, at this pace Sony should reach the 10 million mark well before the end of the year.

Percentages mean nothing without real numbers as a base.

If they sold 10,000 the week before the 76% increase the week on the 76% increase would have sold 17600

Now this week (carrying numbers forward) they sold 106% of the 17600 that means they sold 18,656

It all depends what week 1 number was on whether the percentages are significant.

That would be 18,656 + the previous 17,600 (using your example), thus a total of 36,256.

While we don't know numbers for either platform, we do know that neither was selling terribly (10k would be a low ball number for either really) since the start of this year.

You are right I accidentally multiplied by 1.06 instead of106.0

TitanFail wasnt enough.

If it was you think M$ would have cut the bundle price further ( 450$ ) or promoting the bundle as 399 for a limited time thru their site ? No they wouldnt. Those extra cuts happened because sales werent extremely good as they wanted. Period

Since this is the last month of the Fiscal Year 2013, we will know soon enough whether Titanfall closed the gap or if Titanfalls 360 delays were an emergency move to shift XBone units by the end of the quarter and subsequently EAs abandond ship move to secure the IP for Playstation releases in the future.

Titanfall sparked Xbox One sales and reviewed very well. Its only Cows that want to make it seem as if Titanfall has to sell millions of consoles in the first month. One game has never in the history of games except for Mario done what Cows keeps saying Titanfall has to do. The Titanfall bundle outsold the PS4 4 weeks in a row in the UK and was pretty high on Amazon and GS here in the states. The game has reviewed very well and sold well. Titanfall has done for its first month exactly what its supposed to do. Then each month going forward we'll see what its long-term effect is. I suspect MS has crossed 4 million sales, and has enough data to see that a worldwide price drop will help the One going forward far more than any one game will.

As for EA, I stand by the comment that TF 2 will never see a PS platform. Whatever EA thinks a the game will sell on PS, MS will simply write a check like they did this time with part one. EA's relationship with MS is almost as close as Epic's was. No way MS lets it on a Sony system. This has been and will always be about money and MS will pay IMHO.

You are going to be awfully butthurt when Titanfall 2 is released on PS4 and it will definitely be superior to the Xflop version. I don't play competitive FPS, but I am rooting for this to happen just to see the meltdowns for lems like you. 792p..what a joke Xflop is.

PS4 is going to sell over 15 million units by the end of the year. It will be at 10 million by the end of July.

I don't know why anyone is even remotely surprised that a MULTIPLAT didn't shift a billion units for the Xbox One.

Sure its a great game, but I don't need to drop $450 for a new console to play it.

Nope because I expected that. Both games scored about 5 points lower than I expected though. As long as PS4 is killing Xflop worldwide individual games don't matter to me. Now that Titanfail hype has died down the Xflop will crawl into the Fall while PS4 continues to sale extremely well.

I already told you why I want it on PS4. Doesn't if I don't personally want to play. It hurts Xflop and I know PS4 owners that do want it.

I guess ISS selling 50% less than Titan fall on it's launch week is dominating now? 94% of TF sales were on the XB1 also.

The PS4 has supply issues in UK...that 106% could mean anything.....good/bad

MSV has some info you guys should read before posting.

I love this place. Reading though the complete and utter BS/misinformation and straight out lies in these threads anymore is just sad. WTF?

Why did people buy this. It's just going to give suits all the more incentive to release demo/half finished games to milk the fan bases.

It's money gab. Kojima made sad pulling this crap.

yet 4 weeks X1 was on top. I should hop infamous tops the chart on RELEASE week. The true test is if these games stay on top. O expect titanfall to stay top 5 a long time while infamous and mgz fall down weekly. Not trying to beba fanboy but fps generally have legs more so then infamous

With Infamous & MGS being released, I'm not surprised the PS4 outsolde the XB1 the week after Titanfall bundle had huge sales. Infamous SS was bundled as well. Systems and games selling is never a bad thing.

LOL, titanfall had a bigger launch and will sell more copies. stay mad

Irrelevant is the PS4 is selling more platforms and Infamous is doing great you find me one exclusive on xbox one that is doing better,to play Titanfall you don't need and xbox one to play Infamous you need a PS4..aahaha

Infamous >>>Forza,Ryse,DR3 that is what matter,but we can compare MGS5 to titanfall you know since both are mutliplatforms i guess that is logic..lol

hahahaaaaaaaaaa

But to play infamous you need a PS4, and you dont have one.

cry more eltormo

Titanfall, hundreds of hours of amazing multiplayer goodness..

Infamous 10 hours of pretty nursery school colours and an open world where nobody lives.

Ive been playing hours of multi goodness on PS4 without that gun game im looking towards others and when the second one comes to ps4 then i could at least look at it

If I had a 360, I would be pissed that M$ is forcing this delay on the 360 titanfall. It a bad move to screw their main base and i dont blame anyone who is tired of dealing with m$ bs. I dont buy the excuses for the delay, its being delayed to sell more x1 and its very obvious.

MCV has also been told by a trusted retail source that Titanfall sold just under double the amount of units its first week than InFamous managed in its debut week, although of course Titanfall sales fell around 75 per cent in its second week leaving it behind both Sony's game and Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes.

Guess well see in coming weeks if infamous stays 1. Titanfall doubled infamous debut

MGS4 is also on PS3,xbox 360 and xbox one,sadly is a game that sell better on PS,by the way the PS4 the week before that got a 76% bump just by having units with no new game release..so that is a 106% over a 76% increase the week before.

Yea lems like you have been owned.

"bu...bu...bu....bu...Titanfall!!!1"

Sells for one week then drops below games like MGS:GZ/Infamous SS that have less than a tenth of the marketing/hype and aren't bundled for free. Xbone sales then proceed to fall off a cliff. So much for Titanfall being the Xbone's savior lol.

I do not know, but typically people do not outright attack me unless they're quite bitter about something. I wasn't aware that calling one out on sales means I am "crying." You are assuming I care about sales, when I have on many occasions showcased the opposite.

rofls. Oh no! Someone is trying to undermine their favorite inanimate object at every turn, I must reply and tell him how mischievous his actions are for showcasing such dishonor at my favorite corporation! How dare he come into a thread and poke fun at how obsessed one is with sales!

Perhaps it's time to take a deep breath there, lad.

yeah, thanks for proving my point.

Throwing poo at the wall and seeing what sticks isn't exactly a valid path to take in an argument.

The X1 didn't have a price cut...

It had a pricecut in UK. Look it up.

Are you talking about the Maplin price cut? Just give a link.

I can't find anything on an official price cut. I found something in February, but was that a Microsoft cut?

MS did an official price cut on Feb 28th, 11 days before Titanfall release: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-one-price-cut-to-ps399-99-in-the-uk-from-this-friday/1100-6417929/

They also bundled TF free with Titanfall Xbone bundle at the new slashed price: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-02-24-microsoft-announces-first-xbox-one-price-drop

Thanks for the article. Google required far too much phrasing.

I noticed the TF bundle at $500, though it's not an official price cut -- likely after the TF bundle, it will stay at $500.

Yes, I believe it will stay at $500 in the US. No need for a price cut here since XB1 is already selling well here. They needed a price cut in UK because their sales fell off a cliff due to the charging 429 Pounds for it originally.

I grew up in the UK, and sh*t was expensive in general. Microsoft needed it... Sony actually nailed it this gen.

Sales are worthless BUT if your console is more powerful, cheaper and sells more, you can be your ass all multiplats will be made for it and then ported to the other systems and that's a plus/

Uh oh. Seems another price cut may be coming after March NPD if that's the case. If Xbone doesn't handily beat PS4 in march NPD or if PS4 by some twisted fate beats XBone in March M$ will be forced to do that pricecut in the US.
