I can't wait to see the sales numbers of titanfall and the xbox one for week one and week two

lsujester3706d ago

We can see it did well in UK with the price drop and all, but I wonder about everywhere else where it didn't have that luxury.

SonofGod3706d ago

I bet you do.

If you're waiting to see if the Titanfall sales go down then yes that's what usually happens after a game is released. So I don't see where you're going with this.

Maybe it is to help you sleep at night?

Now go do your "future" thing.

Nocando3706d ago

Why the hell would you care?

Haki11123706d ago

Because Sony fans somehow gets paid when an Xbox games sell poorly lol /s

Killzoner993706d ago

Exactly, this game has NO staying power. In a week nobody will be talking about it. They'll be talking about Infamous SS a TRUE next gen game.

Nice... great to see TF giving the X1 a nice boost. EA , MS and Respawn must be pleased.

WeAreLegion3706d ago

EA will be more pleased when MS writes a check for Titanfall 2. It'll be much bigger next time.

FriedGoat3706d ago

I don't think EA will accept another cheque. Considering PS4 is a much bigger market. EA have actually lost money from this exclusivity deal.

pakua3706d ago

Exactly, MS would prefer to lose money and stop PS4 getting Titanfall 2.

andibandit3706d ago

@FriedGoat, well that actually depends on what MS paid them, dosn't it?

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad608d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g608d ago (Edited 608d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

littletad888d ago

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

Ethereal887d ago

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
