    Aside from all that though since we're getting off topic yet again, how is missing out on the biggest new next-gen IP not a big mistake? I'm sure multiple people were fired over it.

      What...the...fuck? Are you delusional? Just like Pad said in the PS4 thread. It was a sensationalist piece by Keighly. The video you posted is probably some Xbone or Tf nut hugger that acts so appalled that Sony would pass up on the opportunity to pass up on Tf being on their system. When anyone with two brain cells can read between the lines and see it was nothingbut EA and Respawn trying to start a bidding war for exclusivity but Sony didn't bite. And based on early sales, even though Tf 'won' March software sale they barely squeaked by INFAMOUS with ten more days on sale, Sony made the right decision, which was my point.
      So how was I off base again?

        Is it though? It took Tf over two weeks to sell as many copies as infamous did in nine days.
        Maybe Sony didn't buy into the hype like so many other people did. Maybe they just felt that what EA was asking for was way more than what they could get out of it?
        Based on MS's fire sales and bundling the game with the console, only to still get their brains beat in by the PS4, says a lot.
        People getting fired? LOL. More likely that the people that made the decision at MS to invest so much in this game probably will be looking for new employment sooner rather than later.

          Hang on twigg, TF was the #1 selling game in march, how exactly was it outsold? Unless all those NPD reports are lying (or M$ paid them off)?

            Where did I say it was outsold. I just said it took twice as long as inFamous took to sell a million copies. Learn to read.

              Same shit, different day around here.

              I still need to pop this in though. I'm just dreading the install.
              Apologies, I misinterpreted the bolded part. Thank you for clarifying.

              Also, have you purchased this game?

              Also also, stop being so angry all the fucking time

                Yeah, the bold part was referring to console sales, but it looks like you figured that out.

                Yes, I got it and PvZ but haven't popped them in yet. I'm dreading the installs.

                  Did they break the NPD down to US numbers only and the like? I would be curious to see if they xbone outsold the ps4 in the states, in fact, I'd be shocked if it did not.

                    I'm pretty sure they do.

                      U.S. Console Sales March 2014 (per VG Chartz)

                      Sales ending March 8 Ending March 15 Ending March 22 Ending March 29 March total

                      XBOne: 45,811 101,872 66,457 53,711 267,851

                      PS4: 49,447 61,042 97,614 69,544 277,647



                      Whoops. Prepare to be "shocked". Even with Titanfall expected to move XBone consoles (in the launch month especially) the PS4 still edges it out in NORTH AMERICA by 10k. Damn.

                      I'll be more than happy to post the Global numbers as well but they are far more embarassing.

                        VGchartz is just estimates right? I would like an official NPD link, especially if you are going to act like a smugdouche.

                          All of the numbers in their weekly charts add up to the Grand totals (7.1 mil PS4 to 4.3 mil XBOne btw, which are accurate Global sales numbers) so I would think they're pretty accurate. I think it's the software numbers that are more estimates, mostly because I don't think they include digital sales.

                            If only I could install a mod for the Arcade forums that would link to your gamer profile on either system, and if you have not played a game, you aren't allowed to post in it's thread.

                            Seriously, take this to one of the console threads. People who want to come onto the site to talk about Titanfall don't need to wade through this garbage.

                              Exactly. Titanfall rules. Xbox Rocks.

                              Who's ready for some new Titan chassis ?

                              Any ideas on what you'll like to see in the future?
