inFamous Second Son Leading Titanfall In Social Metrics, EA Sorry For Not Bringing Titanfall To PS4

Industry insider Pete Dodd, also known as NeoGAF member famousmortimer reveals a few interesting tid bits.

[ArbitorChief]

If you go on GameTrailers, there's a system in place that details which game is being talked about the most and Titanfall sits currently at 94 while Infamous SS sits at 84. Clearly more people are still talking about Titanfall. Judge for yourself:
http://www.gametrailers.com...

And where's the source from EA? Didn't see any evidence EA said that.

[gameseveryday]

It does not consider Youtube views, does it? According to the videos released, inFamous SS was seen more.

[Hatsune-Miku]

I believe titanfall will be on ps4 by years end and by then if it does come to ps4 it will be in 1080p @60fps.

I can't wait for infamous second son

[ArbitorChief]

Wait... You only consider 1 video and not the hundreds of thousands of Titanfall videos not just from EA, but from Youtubers... Titanfall would utterly destroy Infamous SS. In fact there are 1.5 million Titanfall videos compared to 21,800 videos of Infamous SS. That right there tells you Titanfall utterly destroys Infamous SS on social metrics.

@NewMonday
1.5 million Titanfall videos to 21k videos of Infamous SS on Youtube... Titanfall is utterly destroying Infamous SS in terms of social metrics. You tally all those videos up, Titanfall would have more than 10x the views compared to Infamous SS.

[NewMonday]

@ArbitorChief
view count is the important stat

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Published March 7th, 4.7 million views

the best Titanfall’s could do was 3 million and it was the old E3 trailer.

also..
top 5 inFAMOUSSS videos total over 16 million views
top 5 Titanfall videos total just 7.5 million views

EA Sorry For Not Bringing Titanfall To PS4

Of that I have no doubt http://www.google.co.uk/img...

[Evilsnuggle]

Michael Patcher said that Titanfall is on xbox brand because of EA ceo wanted that deal. But now EA has pulled a Don Mattrick on their ceo and secretly fired him. Michael Pachter said EA made a huge mistake going xbox brand exclusive on Titanfall. Michael Pachter said that Titanfall will sell 500,000 x1 or less than that. Michael Patcher also Said that Titanfall is not even enough to close the sell gap between PS4 AND X1. PS4 and x1 was closer in sales this month But only in the USA. Worldwide PS4 is destroying x1 in sales Europe and Asia is not even close . PS4 is still in short supply and when the 360 version of Titanfall is released x1 sale are going to crash and burn.

http://www.gametrailers.com...

[Zool 08]

@ amiga-man

If EA are sorry at anything, it's because of potential sales they would've made had they put Titanfall on both PS4 and 3

[Charybdis]

what about facebook likes
titanfall 887.733
infamous ss 444.297

Would be interesting to see a ps4 version and if they would have the same servers problem on a global base as microsoft does.

[raWfodog]

@ Zool 08

Well, of course. What else would they be sorry for?

The article stated:
“Sony also used it’s own metrics in a meeting with EA last week and showed them what they would have sold on the ps3 and ps4. The money EA took from MS doesn’t even begin to cover it. The EA guys went over the math and agreed. EA is in full ‘We’re so f**king sorry, Sony’ mode currently."

[PONTIAC08G8GT]

Why is it such a big deal that TF is not on PS4? I mean come on already. I don't see this kind of want for any other Xbox game but for some reason, PS4 fans are so upset/angry that TF isn't on their system. Exclusives exist for a reason. Maybe TF2 will be but give it a rest already, these articles are tiresome. I've never seen a game get so much criticism for not being on a competitors system. What makes this game any different than any other Xbox exclusive?

[Charybdis]

@PONTIAC08G8GT

Well it has high review numbers, is made by a third party developper and would be interesting to do a side by side comparison with titanfall on ps4 and xbox one, especially considering the use and so called benefits of Microsoft azure services. This is the game that would have been able to proof or disprove the advantage of microsft azure servers.

[LightofDarkness]

The sad thing is Titanfall is a great title with much potential, but without cross-platform support it will never gain the kind of marketplace position and following it probably should/would have. Snubbing the Sony brand will harm them this gen, if PS4 players had Titanfall right now you can bet it would probably sell twice as much as it likely will. There are 2.5 times as many PS4s and XBOs in peoples' hands right now and they are dying for something new to play. It wouldn't even have to compete with InFamous, they have fairly different target markets. I'm afraid they might have already missed the bus by the time the sequel rolls around.

This also means that Respawn themselves will likely bear much of the fallout from this because EA aren't terribly good at admitting when something was their fault.

[creatchee]

@LightOfDarkness

"The sad thing is Titanfall is a great title with much potential, but without cross-platform support it will never gain the kind of marketplace position and following it probably should/would have."

You could replace Titanfall with the name of any good exclusive.

[DarkZane]

If that article is right, this basically confirm titanfall 2 for PS3/PS4, or at least PS4.

[sonarus]

lol all these fanboy tears over rumors and speculation. Why do you even care either way. If you want to support Titanfall or infamous vote with your $60.

[UltimateMaster]

Are those metrics really relevant?

I mean come one.

They add up the amount of people that are talking about it, but not if they are talking good or bad about it.

I not the kind to think: "Any publicity is good publicity"

[UltimateMaster]

@ArbitorChief

Youtubers, dude, the game isn't even released yet and Titanfall had a beta that both PC and Xbox One have been playing for a month now.

The Best that Infamous SS has is a few leaks of some gamers that got it early and Sony has been pro-active to take down Youtube video before it's official launch to not spoil the game before it's release.

Chill,
PS4 hasn't even released the Youtube update yet. (Something some games had on PS3...)

@Evilsnuggles
Nope, Steve Balmer is not fired.
He just stepped down as CEO, but he's still on the board of directors making the important decisions.
They just switched people places, but they are the same people working there.

[PoSTedUP]

not to sound like an a** h*** (but well, here i go), i m glad Titanfall isnt on ps4, its not the quality i would expect from a ps4 title. glad ppl are enjoying it tho, xbox gamers like thoes kinda fps.

as for views/popularity, who gives a s***, titanfall was thrown into everyones faces and hyped by MS and EA, they bassically threw all of their eggs into one basket. while InfamousSS gained most if not all of its exposure from just looking freaking awesome and word of mouth, basically.

[DaCandyman]

Lesson/Message/letter to all 3rd Party developers. NEVER!!! close the door on a console at the beginning of its life cycle... Unless his name is Nostradamus never follow early predictions. Hey Respawn/EA how did you manage to twist your foot that far to kick your own arse?

[AceBlazer13]

What makes this sweeter is despite the shit loads microsoft is marketing this game, despite the xbox fanboys screaming how fun it is the ps4 just drowns it all out. The ps4 hype train is still running and once you go against the hype your gonna get run over.

Was on twitter and so tweets along these lines 'finally got ps4 #swag'.There were multiple tweets like this,When you have those type of people backing your system, the trend followers, you know your safe.Looking at all this I realized something.Any exclusive launching against the PS4 will not only be competing against ps exclusives but the initial hype of the PS4 itself.Now it doesn't matter if Titanfall is good or not it chose to oppose PS4 hype. When march npd releases we'll see how that worked out for it.

http://i.imgur.com/d7E18mp....

[scott182]

Infamous looks fantastic, very excited to play it! Glad it is getting a lot of attention :)

[minimur12]

@arbitor chief

there is one big difference though, Titanfall is out, and has had 2 betas on PC and Xbox one which had 2 million players, inFamous however has had only official gameplay videos and a couple of leaked videos.

did you not think of this when typing your comment out ?

[Visiblemarc]

@ArbitorChief

Not that I really care about this irrelevant story. However:

Check your logic.

Titanfall is out already, there are obviously going to be more videos out of it.

Also, this bickering is ruining gaming news.

[mewhy32]

I don't think Infamous sales will come close to what Titanfall will be able to get selling on PC, xbone, and Xbox 360.

[kamisama]

arbitorchief u have a lil more to consider then that my friend like the fact titanfall is already out so there will be a saturation of uploaded gameplay just like there will be when infamous comes out also titanfall is pc xbox 360 and xbox one as infamous is only ps4 so if your going to point out that someone else is wrong dont be just as vague as they are

[DragonKnight]

Wait, have we come to the point now where people are honestly arguing over which game has been seen and talked about more?

Absolutely pathetic.

[nicksetzer1]

Meanwhile at sony

http://m.huffpost.com/us/en...

[Cyanide85]

@Arbitorcheif Did u even consider the fact that infamous SS hasn't even released yet? So how the f**k could people be uploading videos of it on YouTube then?

[kiz2694]

GDEX has been flawed ever since it was launched. Its a just rough estimate and its not very refined.

Arbitor Cheif@ There talking about one youtube video, compared with any of the Titanfall videos, including there launch trailer and reveal trailer, none of them have the same views as this single trailer released for I:SS. Stop crying for your Titanfall. Poeple are more hyped for Infamous now that Titanfall landed quite softly.

[mafiahajeri]

They weren't lying when they said the king is back...

[ArbitorChief]

1.5+ million videos of Titanfall on Youtube compared to 21k videos of Infamous SS... Yep, people are definitely talking and are more hyped about Infamous SS... Do the maths.

@Kizz
I know that, but I'm saying, 1.5+ million videos of Titanfall compared to 21k on Infamous SS clearly demonstrates on social metrics, Titanfall is destroying Infamous SS.

[kiz2694]

@ Arbitor Chief, its not the number of videos released, its the popularity of each video, many of the titanfall videos you mention will be rookie youtubers trying to get 1-10 views. The article is talking about the trailers coming from the developers, and in this case Infamous owned Titanfall in views.

[Oago]

You know infamous isn't released yet so how can there be 1.5 million videos?

[PONTIAC08G8GT]

I think there have been more Titanfall/PS4 articles than infamous/PS4, and only one of those games is coming to PS. Infamous might sell more copies than TF, but it's not generating as much hype or attention.

[OpieWinston]

Infamous...an established franchise
VS
Titanfall it's first iteration coming from a team of experienced competitive shooter devs.
FB likes comparisson Titanfall wins.

Video views on the Playstation channel...Of course we expect to win. At the end of the day the game has got a large fanbase watching these videos...Not to be racist but Asians own Playstations and they do take up a good chunk of the worlds population.

You have to take into consideration all variables to make a claim...And the day I judge a games love by video views...That's the day I call Justin Bieber one of the most talented pop stars in the world... That day isn't coming anytime soon.

[legionsoup]

It makes sense that Titanfall is talked about more. It's out. People will be talking about it. Asking questions. etc.

Infamous Second Son isn't out yet. People can't get on and say things like "can you help me with this part?"

[yarbie1000]

Yes, a lot of people need to ask for help on how to play Titanfall....

[Angeljuice]

@ Yarbie1000

You may think you're being funny but I have already seen articles on "How to play TitanFall." I suppose that's the price you pay for launching a game on a console marketed most prominently towards "Telly Addicts" rather than gamers.

[Legacy212]

@yarbie yea too many people play it like a traditional FPS. I let my buddy try it and he was just walking on the ground scouting to find people. I had to remind him that he can run on walls and double jump. So needless to say he got whooped.@angel juicr... what? Telly addicts more then gamers. Okay friend. Where I professionalize the correct term to use for you train of thought it a delusion. A belief that is ultimately false but you believe it to be true despite the facts.

[rdgneoz3]

@Arbitor So you're saying more people use GameTrailers than YouTube? Most videos linked on N4G are youtube videos and a lot more people know about YouTube than GT...

[GarrusVakarian]

“Second Son – https://www.youtube.com/wat... – Published March 7th. 4.7 million views.

“To find anything even close on Titanfall’s YouTube you have to go back to October

Just thought i'd post that. 4.7 million views in 2 weeks. Two.

But comparing an FPS with mass appeal on 3 platforms to a singleplayer only exclusive is downright ridiculous.

And about EA....i bet they are KICKING themselves over not bringing out TF on PS3/4. We all know how much EA loves money...and with over 6 million PS4's sold, they would have made some serious bucks.

[Rimfro]

Are you guys really arguing over which games YouTube videos have more views?! Is this what the "Console wars" have come to? Haha. I'm going to continue dominating on Titanfall, while waiting for Second Son to drop. Who knew March would be such a great month for gaming?! I love it!!!

[medman]

@arbiterchief
Butthurt alert!!! Butthurt alert!!! The denial is strong with these types.

[sak500]

LOL you sony worshipers are butthurt...

Before TF launch: sony lovers: Look at that COD clone, nobody will buy that, graphics are dated doesnt look fun, thank God we dont have it on our platform we have ... Infamous.

After TF launch. sony lovers: Why those MS money spenders bribed EA for exclusive just wait TF 2 or even TF will be on ps3/ps4, EA is not going to lose so much potential sales.

LOL you bunch of sony fans have done more 180s than MS on xb1. Are you still waiting for a decent game on your ps4? how about you wait few years just like you did for ps3.

[Allsystemgamer]

Um. Sak. If sony fans want to play it they can buy the PC version which is better than the Xbone version...any half decent PC from a decade ago can run it...

No one is crying over it not being on ps4 and the ps4 has plenty of games.

[moparful99]

@sak500. Its not butthurt.. Vindication for EA snubbing the PS4.. This game was originally a multiplat including PS4 until EA's backroom negotiation for platform exclusivity with Microsoft. It was a underhanded move and is bitting them hard.. Sony fans are only expresding that feeling of vindication..

[joab777]

Who cares? Titanfall had a beta and has released already.

But I do bet EA wishes they had brought Titanfall to PS4. Look how well CoD has done in recent yrs despite the timed exclusivity of the dlc.

[TheXgamerLive]

Clearly its titanfall. All you have to do is look at every gaming media. But im sure ss will pick up when it releases.

[otherZinc]

Exactly.
We'll see if this "Social Metric" will buy more Infamous Second Son copies than TitanFall copies. We'll see what NPD & other services say sold the most.
Talk is cheap.

[moparful99]

Considering Killzone: shadowfall outsold all other exclusives speaks volumes.. Titanfall has met overall tepid critical and commercial results so far..

[GraveLord]

Gametrailers is a shitty website. You really think they're social media tracking is any good?

[DJMarty]

Yeh they saying X1 version sucks, PC version is the one to buy.

[SilentNegotiator]

Well if Titanfall is more popular on a site that's always had a major Xbox lean, then of course Titanfall is more popular on social networks.

/s

[MysticStrummer]

You could have stopped at "a site" and left out the part about the XBox bias, since there are many sites where gaming is discussed. Hell I sometimes look at a site mostly dedicated to the paranormal, and it has a long standing gaming discussion in the forums.

[kparks]

It's prolly a good thing M$ did get titanfall as a exclusive. Could u imagine if PS got it instead it would be game over for Microsoft

[Major_Glitch]

Agreed. MS NEEDED Titanfall. Sony on the other hand does not.

[DFogz]

Just because people are talking about something, doesn't mean they're saying nice things.

[MysticStrummer]

"Clearly more people are still talking about Titanfall."

Clearly one site represents an incredibly minuscule portion of the internet.

[kopicha]

@ arbitor

ya the whole world and the entire internet evolves around 1 website. right?

[scootscottskeet93]

Arbitor stop being so insecure.. I own titanfall and it's trash. Soooo even if say titanfall is talked about more it doesn't matter, infamous will turn out on top in the end.

[parentoftheyear]

Im sure they are a couple hundred million reasons sorry they didn't bring it to ps4.

[parentoftheyear]

Also comparing stats on Facebook titanfall- 800k likes ss only 400 likes you do realize titan fall on 3 platforms and ss on one. So do the math on that.

[DeadlyFire]

hmm......
80 Million divided by 800 K = 100 or roughly 10% of users on X360 with interest in Titanfall.
4 Million XB1 divided by 800 K = 5 percent of possible XB1 users interested in Titanfall.
Together = 15% with possible interest between Xboxes, but there is also the PC crowd as well which Activision has shutout with no dedicated servers in the past few years except for select titles. So that could also be a big percentage.

6.2 Million divided by 400 K = 15 percent of possible PS4 users with interest in SS.

Interesting numbers indeed. Although one could guestimate anything really.

[JetP0619]

LOL gametrailers. One of the most biased website out there. u do know the people there loves their 360s and x1's.

[Sarcasm]

It's ridiculous how the games are even being compared since they are two totally different types of games.

I already bought TF for my PC, and have Infamous SS on pre-order.

TF on PS4 would have been nice, but oh well.

[moujahed]

There is also something called sales. Where you can determine whih product is being sold more than the other. Right now Titan Fall isn't selling nearly as much as Infamous 2nd Son. Just because people are talking about something does nt mean it's a good conversation.

[ALLWRONG]

Meanwhile on N4G

Titanfall 159760°
inFamous Second Son 48880°

You can't get any more pro Sony than N4G so... take what is said in this article with a truck load of salt.

[nicksetzer1]

From the company who did this

http://m.huffpost.com/us/en...

What a surprise.

[bigfish]

Someone needs to contact google to see which game has been searched more in order to bury this argument once and for all...

it will no doubt be infamous but need to check with google to make sure.

[Fgfttfgff]

Do you forget infamous SS also hasn't been released yet not allowing it to have the same ability to be put up my youtubers? Titanfall has been released and spammed with videos. *cough* *cough* I mean uh facts are bad!

[xetiro]

It make sense that Titanfall is being more talked since a Titanfall Beta was available to be played by thousands of ppl, and the retail version is available on Xbox One since March 11st.

Infamous Second Son will be launch on March 21st, so...

[daggertoes83]

" Sony used metrics in a meeting to show what they would have sold on the ps3 and ps4. The money ea took won't even begin to cover it. Talking about titanfall.
Yea Microsoft punked you!! We'll take you back though.

[Team_Litt]

Talking about games < playing games. So much easier to talk about a game when you aren't playing it.

I'll leave it at that and go back to playing games.

[curtis92]

Sometimes people are at work, looking at these sites when they get a chance. Like myself. We can't all be playing games 24/7 but power to ya, man! I'm jelly.

[Team_Litt]

And other times they just don't have any games and talking non-staap about it makes them feel better until they have it...that or their games are boring/short.

[NewMonday]

@team

I thought you went to play games

[Ares84HU]

Hahahaha, too funny! Got owned Team_Litt

[Hicken]

Some of us have higher brain functions: we can talk and play a game at the same time.

[Team_Litt]

I can do that too, when the game I'm playing isn't fun enough to engage me fully. . .But when I'm fully immersed in a game, coming here to talk to nobodies is the last thing on my mind.

No, I reserve replying to ridiculous internet for when I'm in the john...and with that, dookie time is over. Back to the games. Enjoy talking and "gaming"

[SilentNegotiator]

Gee, team, all of these comments must have taken you like, 5 minutes to write. You even a gamer, bro?

[SilentNegotiator]

Yet here you are.

Discussing in a forum isn't that time consuming. Even actively engaged in a conversation, all you have to do is take 10 seconds to leave a comment and then go back later.

You've never even typed up a comment during respawn time?

[MysticStrummer]

"I'll leave it at that and go back to playing games."

…said the guy who then went on to use the rest of his bubbles.

[Kayant]

"There needs to be a book about 2010-2014. The stories i've heard are absolutely fucking incredible. Almost the entire industry was convinced in 2012 that the next xbox was going to dominate the world. And now here we are..." - Hmmmm I want to know more. I do wonder how MS pitched themselves back then to reality now.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum...

[Salooh]

MS has been screwing their xbox 360 costumers for a long time. I expected this result. Before e3 last year and even before the reveal all the signs showed that they are aiming for their interests first / second / third and then costumers interests come . I expect them to get worst even after they fixed their mistakes by force after e3. They don't care about gaming and they don't care if their costumers satisfied or not. They learned now to get greedy in a smaller steps though lol ..

[sak500]

OH really? PS3 was going to kill the xbox brand after the original was dropped by MS. Ps3 was supposted to sell 1 billion units in first year and would have ended world hunger and brought 4 D in gaming. All happened and we are now salves to SONY master race right?

GO drink more of sony koolaid, PS4 launched early and still didn't kill xbox brand.

[Allsystemgamer]

Didn't kill it but is outselling it nearly 2:1. No one wants the xbox brand to die. Competition is good.

They want your kind to die.

Enjoy the 720p for the next 8 years and after 3 years one exclusive a year.

[razrye]

Only launched a week early in America. Not Europe and UK. Try harder next time.

[Fz6soldier]

I bet they're sorry. Titanfall 2 will be on Ps4.

[frostypants]

Now sure who is disagreeing with this. It's a virtual given. The cost for exclusivity, if MS wants it, is going to be through the roof. Just because they may be able to technically afford it doesn't mean it will make sense, especially to shareholders.

[WeAreLegion]

Nobody gets this. You can have all the money in the world, but if you're a publicly traded company, you have to appease investors and the board or someone's getting fired. They can't sink all their money into a division that makes them virtually zero profit right now.

[Tedakin]

Wait. EA knew Titanfall was an Xbox launch window game right? And they also were aware a PS4 was coming out and that PS3 was already in homes, had been for years and had a huge install base correct? So why would they act all :( now? I'm not saying this story isn't true, I'm just saying it doesn't make sense for EA to not realize cutting out the PS4, and especially the PS3, would cause a huge loss in sales.

[SmielmaN]

Maybe TF was supposed to be next gen only? Then after the poor lead up to next gen launch they put a team on a 360 version and PC version? I'm just spitballing here. Just speculating.

[speedforce131]

They were banking on Microsoft absolutely dominating Sony when it comes to a 1v1 battle. Obviously Microsoft lost but I'm shocked that people who were in charge of seeing these trends beforehand didn't see this coming.

[sak500]

Really from what retarded branch did you pick out this cherry of news? PS3 sales were equivalent to 360s and with fail of an E3 reveal and all the negative hype for xb1 and even before that the GD3 vs GD5 yet you came out with theory that xb1 was thought to have dominated new gen as well?

WHat you dont' like your sony master's games anymore that you coming out with damage control for not having one shooter on ps4?

[Allsystemgamer]

Lol sak500 you're an idiot bf4 and cod are both on ps4 selling better and look and run better. Plus there's killzone.

Seriously is ms paying you to act like they're pr team?

[macethedon]

@sak500

What the fuck are you on about, everyone is/was aware of how X360 "dominated" in terms of how the multi-platform games out of the two consoles performed (you only need to look at the sales difference), this is also backed up by the fact that nearly all the main figures of the gaming industry preferred to game on the X360, hence the reason EA deciding to get in bed with MS, all so they could get in on that CoD money (which baffles me as to why they didn't go multi-plat).

This is all because EA thought MS was guaranteed to continue there so called dominance.

They sure as hell fucked up, royally at that.
They may not desrve to be called the worst company in America (or is it the world?), but certainly the worst gaming company that's for damn sure.

[zeuanimals]

@sak:

The 360 came a year earlier and it's tied with the PS3... Doesn't sound to good to me. I know a couple people who had to buy new 360s because their old ones failed and MS wouldn't replace them. This was very early in the lifecycle, before MS started replacing them. So who knows how many of the 80 mil 360s sold are dead consoles?

[SliceOfTruth888]

If sonyfanboys still don't realize the fact its only on xbone because psn wasn't ready and ea didn't want to add anything to their battlefield server load I feel bad for them. Seriously its common sense Sony dropped the ball

[Fz6soldier]

lol, I haven't had any issues with multiplayer games on PSN, why should Titanfall be any different?

[Sevir]

Lol. Is that why Titan Fall is having issues on Xbox One!!!? Because Sony dropped the ball?

Look, they went with MS because they were a small studio, and what MS pitched was servers and the fact that on 360 MS dominated the mind share, so they were confident they'd have great penetration because the XBOX brand became powerful... 2 years ago the world believed MS would be the dominant force in the 8th gen and consoles... So that's why the deal was struck.... But see, the future is tricky, past success doesn't always mean future success. MS's pitch sounded good but execution was poor and it's been poor since they announced the XBO well beyond launch...

EA made a bad deal and seriously TF should be released on All platforms just like Destiny, if they ever have any chance of competing with Acti with COD and Destiny!

And we''ll know next month with NPD... Platform to single platform infamous is going to dominate, TF will sell more being on 360/XBO/PC but I:SS will handily beat out TF on XBO...

EA should be very sorry, MS's Money chatting isn't going to improve EA's bottomline and I hope some clause loophole is found where TF is brought to PS4 this year, kinda like Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Sigma 2.. a rename would get them out of exclusive publishing.

[D3ATH_DRIV3R_777]

@SliceOfTruth

*laughes hysterically* what a joke.

[SoulSercher620]

That is the talk of someone who not only doesn't use PSN but doesn't even know how online infrastructure works.

Please come back when you make more sense.

[candy_mafia]

Titanfall's a good game on Xbox One. However, TF could be on PS4 this year or early 2015, but it may be called Titan_____something else, since they can't use the full 'Titanfall' name due to EA/MS' (alleged $50 million) deal.

If it doesn't, at least we can be certain a TF sequel will.

[Why o why]

What, like a ninja gaiden sigma... doubt it but yeah, ea being ea must be a little peeved but like a commenter mentioned above, they weren't blind. They knew they would be missing out on ps4 and the larger ps3's install base if a deal was struck.

[Bruce_Wayne]

TitanFall: High Definition? No? Close but no cigarette..?

[Tempest317]

How about Titanlawl? :)

[Vanfernal]

Titandrop?

[frostypants]

Giantstumble?

[sak500]

it's TITAAAANRACER.. TITANZONE, TITAN the Second son. So many names but unfortunately you guys are stuck with crappy games for the moment.

[Why o why]

@sak. Guess you'd be the expert on that after owning a 360 for the last 3 years. It's like a repeat of last gen. You guys were were way too quick to call 'delay station' and 'no games' and look how dumb and hypocritical ms made you look in the end. Turned you screamers into apologists Lmao. Don't make the same mistake.

[candy_mafia]

Nice to see so many 'intelligent' replies ;/

[MRMagoo123]

I personally prefer they keep the average FPS games on the xbone, i can play it easy enough on my PC, tried it on a friends PC but its just not a game i would bother buying really when there are better games out right now like South park: The stick of truth and infamous coming out next week. For the people that havent played it, dont worry you arent missing anything special imo it gets very samey with the lack of modes and lack of anything really. Its basically the FPS equivalent of Forza 5 but ugly.

[Jack_Reacher]

Unless M$ pay serious big money EA will move this multi platform. Its a business after all.

But in the mean time thanks to all you xbox owners for play testing the game before the proper version comes out in a year or two on everything. /s

[Tedakin]

There are things called contracts and laws that you can't just break. MS would sue EA into oblivion. I'm not sure how many times EA, MS, Respawn, Vince Zampella and Abbe Heppie have to say it's never coming PS4 before people say okay and walk away.

[iceman06]

These things called "contracts and laws" often have HUGE loopholes that any half decent lawyer can get around with ease. MS didn't buy the IP. They bought exclusive rights to this particular TitanFall. However, with clever wording and an addition or two, it's entirely possible that they could release Ultimate TitanFall 2K14 (being facetious of course) for other consoles. Not saying that they will, but saying that it's not out of the realm of possibility.

[lodossrage]

@Tedakin- we've heard that before.

Think back to the first Bioshock game. MS paid for it to be exclusive. Yet PS3 code for the game was found eventually. Then Ken Levine went on record saying "there will be on PS3 version". Then a year later, a PS3 version with added content came out.

I'm not saying this first Titanfall game will come to Playstation. But the situation is very similar. Just like with Bioshock, Titanfall code was already found for a Playstation version. And Zampalla went on record the same way Levine did saying there won't be a Playstation version.

So history has already shown us that just because they "say" something in public doesn't make it true.

[Fz6soldier]

All Respawn has to do is announce Titanfall 2 on PS4 at E3.

[frostypants]

Tedakin, the "Souls" series says "hi". Mass Effect says "hi". Ninja Gaiden says "hi". They could take Titanfall, add a few maps, and mess with the title to the extent required by the contract (I doubt MS could stop them from calling it Titanfall: Platinum Edition or something), and release it on other platforms. These contracts are full of subjectivity, and MS is not going to threaten EA and risk losing them as a publisher, especially at a time when they are already fighting from a position of weakness. MS will have gotten everything they are going to get from this exclusivity after the game's first few months on the market.

[mkis007]

@ frosty I totally agree

Ms has no positional strength. If Ea came to MS to nullify the contract MS would have no way to stop them. All EA would have to do is threaten with not publishing a game on their system.

..."it may be hard for us to release Battlefront on xbox one if we are not let out of this deal." Shady...but it is EA...Ea would never do it but it just got me thinking.

[Clogmaster]

People say they will love their spouse forever.

Then one day they get divorced.

[sak500]

You get bored of sameness, that's why ps fanboys always want more games of MS platform.

[Allsystemgamer]

Lol sak you're one to talk. RYSE is the same thing over and over. Same with forza 5 oh yet another gears? Another halo? A halo every year? Another fable?

[razrye]

Sak is a moron. Lonely lil troll

[mkis007]

sameness? PAH-LEase... xbox is the shooter console. Playstation is the everything else console.

[No_Limit]

1.TitanFall 163740°

2.inFamous: Second Son 49930°

I don't know about other places, but Titanfall is more than 3X the hotness of inFamous here on N4G.

[ToastyMcNibbles]

You have to keep in mind Titanfall released this week so with the amount of articles released this week including reviews its no wonder its a hot topic. Expect the same to happen to Infamous next week as we get closer to release.

[listenkids]

Why would logic come into play?

[Slothnut]

Actually titanfall has been on top of n4g n4g hotness for a couple months now

[mkis007]

It isn't even that... MS is spending a fortune advertising this game since E3. They had an open beta on 3 platforms.

Sony meanwhile doesn't even look like it is trying to over-hype the game...Infamous is speaking for itself... and im dying of the wait for it.

[Paulie_gualtieri]

90% of the hottest articles are all flamebait resolution/framerate rumors or wild "insider" theories.

All the infamous submissions are just previews/interviews

[Silly gameAr]

Kind of easy when N4G is being flooded with Titanfall articles.

[sAVAge_bEaST]

and 1000x the articles, blushes, and a$$ grabs.

[MRMagoo123]

Odd that titanfall is soooooo high up there in the heat with this being such a Sony fanboy site and all huh No_brain ? So what you are saying now is N4G isnt all about sony all of a sudden ? the stupidity has no boundaries with you huh.

[No_Limit]

As much as I like the inFamous series and going to buy the third one on PS4, outside of Sony dominated forum, yous hardly hear anyone talk about that game, unlike other big Sony IPs like TLOU, Uncharted or GOW.

[Tedakin]

I'm a way bigger Xbox fan than Playstation, but when a new God of War comes out, everything on Xbox can kiss my butt. God of War 3 was magical, and to me the best looking game of the entire last gen. I've never played more than a demo of the first Infamous game.

[Why o why]

There's always that title that makes honest gamers do the dirty......... glad I'm not the only one

[HeWhoWalks]

Anecdotal at best. I hear plenty about both games and have been since both were given release dates. Means nothing.

[bleedsoe9mm]

bought my xb1 for titanfall bought my ps4 for second son , but i loved the first infamous game , doesn't seem like a game that would sell systems , but you never know .

[DeadManMMX]

Agreed Infamous is one of my absolute favorite series but like a lot of Sony games they aren't considered Mass system sellers. For me it was a system seller for a lot of guys on here I'd imagine so too, but for the guys who only jump on and off COD and Madden not so much. We will see how this goes sales wise. Sony is riding a train of hype and goodwill the likes of which I've never seen and they are riding it to great heights. Microsoft is fighting against a tide of hate and negativity its truly amazing to sit back and watch these articles and forums. Every Sony post is overloaded with positivity and happiness and they can do no wrong. Every Xbox One post hell even Titanfall's Amazon page is getting trolled. I'll be glad when this hysteria dies down.

[ananas]

where EA say this... ? :)

[lonewolfjedi]

“Sony also used it’s own metrics in a meeting with EA last week and showed them what they would have sold on the ps3 and ps4. The money EA took from MS doesn’t even begin to cover it."

ouch! if this is true. ouch! thats all I can say regarding this statement. ouch!

[bleedsoe9mm]

giving up about the same numbers on sony they will sell on xbox , shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone at EA . allot more cost to do a sony launch as well, nothing with a sony name on it is going to run on a azure server without paying thru the nose . at the very least probably would have pushed back the launch date .

[mkis007]

It would have still been a year later release. So there would have been time for Sony to get on that.

But the problem is they didn't expect Sony to be in a lead. Not only are they leading, but they are leading by a lot...The check EA got from MS was probably half of what they needed.

[bleedsoe9mm]

@mkis007 -
both console are way above any sales projections they would have made when the decision was made

[Budobear]

I wasn't even sure if Titanfall had launched, considering the build up in the press they didn't seem at all bothered once it was on the shelves!
Its very odd.

[hankmoody]

Let's play a game. Let's play where instead of spitting out sales numbers and tech stats and other assorted nonsense, we talk about the specific games on each system. All I hear on N4G day after day is how the PS4 is destroying the XB1 in terms of sales but barely anyone is talking about the games available for it. Did people buy a PS4 to play games on it or to flaunt sales numbers? Why don't we talk about titles instead for a while and see how that conversation goes?

[megatron_78]

that conversation would go as anyone would expect everyone would say their chosen system has better games because it has the games they like ....i don't think anyone can be wrong in that retrospect i mean we like what we like right ? facts and stats etc don't change they can spin shit but at this point play what u like on what u like ,mgs soon infamous soon titanfall out and darksouls ......which is the fucking BEST!

[Why o why]

Lol, big and bosey now huh....musta been hella quiet for the last few years when all I was hearing about was NA sales and that exlusives didnt matter anymore...not you exclusively or specifically hank but you know what I mean. Now there are games to play you kinda imply like theres nothing to play on the rival console (no offense wii u fans).. this topic is about what greedy ea may of missed. This doesnt affect x1 guys as they're enjoying TF and thats all good. Second son lands soon so its not like theres an impending 3 year drought to weather.

[styferion]

Just because few months after launch they don't have many AAA games doesn't mean it'll be like that the whole life cycle,

in case you don't realize 2 of 3 major 2014 BAFTA winners are PS exclusives, PS3 still spitting exclusives here and there while X360 abandoned by MS so much that they didn't market anything on it for their current biggest game (TF).

if you look at PS history you'll know the games are coming, just be patient.

[hankmoody]

To be fair, if you were in charge, wouldn't you push Titanfall on the better system than the last gen one? Titanfall is getting ads on the XB360 also, it's right there on the dashboard but I mean, I'd focus more on the higher end stuff personally.

[liquidhalos]

Well said. Bubs for you Hankmoody. Im also sick of this constant argument about sales and figures. Im desperate for news about games. Upcoming games, tips, tricks, game nights. You know, gamers on a game website talking about games and meeting up online to play games. I don't care what console sells better according to numerical wizardry, it doesn't matter to me, I made my console choice and that's final. Lets talk games people, lets actually talk about what makes us gamers instead of numbers and sales

[hankmoody]

Thanks for that! I'm just tired of it and frankly, I honestly don't see how throwing out sales figures and other numbers in response to the success of a particular title is even an argument. Taste in games varies from person to person but that doesn't mean we can't keep the argument focused.

[Meltic]

infamous is so Close to release. My ps4 and my ps4 wireless headsets are ready !!

[TheRedButterfly]

Really reaching with this one huh?

[Majin-vegeta]

Of course EA would be sorry.

http://weknowgifs.com/wp-co...

[Ocsta]

"Sony also used it’s own metrics in a meeting with EA
last week and showed them what they would have sold
on the ps3 and ps4. The money EA took from MS
doesn’t even begin to cover it. The EA guys went over
the math and agreed. EA is in full ‘We’re so f**king
sorry, Sony’ mode currently." That made me LOL for some reason :P

[pandehz]

Lol dont even compare.

Titanfall is in every game conversation.

Infamous Second Son barely pops in.

Regarding EA being sorry....dafuq?

Author's write any kinda crap nowadays and ppl just gobble it up. Sounds like a sour fanboy to me.

Anyhoo Titanfall incoming tomrrow. Yeeeeehaw

[Bonkerz]

Infamous just like Killzone is gonna sell well because everything else (exclusive) sucks ass. Its the truth i already know the disagrees are gonna come, but KZ only sold well because it was in competition with Knack lets be serious ere. Infamous is gonna sell well because PS4 is thirsty for a new AAA game. The facts are there, if you disagree thats fine but give me a valid arguement atleast.

[desolationstorm]

Killzone was fun, an adequate exclusive launch title. Not amazing or mind blowing. Been looking forward to Infamous since I opened my PS4

[pandehz]

My friends and I discussed about this too.

Its like Infamous will sell because there is nothing else at all. Same happened with KZ too.

[mantisimo]

@pandehz

I'm buying infamous because 1 and 2 were awesome games that kept me and my 2 sons busy and having fun for hours and hours.

They were probably my 3rd favourite franchise last gen.

I wouldn't like titanfall because I don't like cod or other fps games.

There are a lot of people looking forwards to this on its own merits not because of the current drought on both ngen systems.

Very hotly anticipated by many players who loved the first 2.

[Salooh]

Some of us live in a different reality . LOL

[mochachino]

I'd prefer a nice SP experience like Infamous over competitive MP-only any day.

I get bored with competitive MP after an hour, it's not something I can play all day. I love k/d shooters, but only in small bursts. I play a little everyday but it's not relaxing at all.

SP is my major focus with gaming, I'd choose SP-only over competitive MP-only every time. Even if the SP-only was an 8/10 and the the k/d shooter was a 9/10

[GW212]

Actually most of what you just said is opinion. That's the problem on N4G: people thinking their opinion is fact.

Having said that, I don't disagree with most of what you said. However, I do disagree that Infamous is going to sell well because PS4 needs a AAA game. I could say the same thing about Titanfall and XB1.

Infamous will sell well because it's the first true-next gen title on either console.

Further, let's not forget that 9 out of 10 games are multiplat. There are plenty of games on both consoles relative to us being 4 months into the generation.

[iceman06]

Exactly! Every console has it's drought after a launch. Usually, whatever exclusive comes out the soonest after that launch gets a huge boost in sales. Had TitanFall not received so much attention at E3 and beyond, it would have STILL sold well because (just like the PS4) X1 hasn't had a AAA exclusive release since launch either.
There are about 40 games available on PS4 and about 30 on X1. So, the argument about "nothing to play" is opinionated at best...unless you are referring ONLY to AAA releases.
It's just a silly, short-sighted, and highly biased argument.

[fenome]

What's wrong with Knack? Goddamn, that game's got so much criticism. I like that game more than Shadowfall. Killzone looks amazing, but I'm just not a huge FPS lover. Borderlands is an exception for me though, as far as FPS go, I love that game.

[desolationstorm]

And here I am enjoying Titanfall and happily waiting for my copy of Infamous to arrive.

Flamebait and who cares?

[pandehz]

You are a happy person.

I jealous

[Ko_Uraki]

It's incredible that insiders are still considered reliable...

[76erz24]

Lol Gaming bolt is so pro Sony it's kinda obvious.

[Sadist3]

You know you're a loser when you actually brag about how many views a product got on YouTube.

[Berenwulf]

LO! EA is a money bitch.. They will do anything for money, they don't care about customers or loyalty they just want the green stuff...

[mochachino]

All company's are "a money bitch", the problem with EA is that they sacrificed the series long term health for a quick short term gain in money. The millions of sony gamers are just going to play something else and convince themselves that they wouldn't want the game anyways.

Every person that purchases a PS3 or PS4 has already convinced themselves that Titanfall on xone/360 isn't that special.

[Brettman2008]

What a generalisation! I have a PS4 and think Titanfall is cool. Looking forward to Titanfall 2 on PS4.

[MilkMan]

What I take from this is, EA will want to see how Infamous Second Son sales. If it competes with Titanfall.
If it does and if what the article said is correct, you can practically guarantee that all future releases of Titanfall will be multiplatform.
EA is not in the business of losing money.
Unless, MS gives them money proportionate to what they would truly lose if they don't go multiplatform, especially since now they have the Sony metrics.

Its a matter of when does it become cost effective to buy exclusivity vs. letting it ride multiplatform.

The sames of both hardware and software will dictate the outcome of this.

[Tempest317]

No one should compare the sales of Titanfall to infamous imo...an online only competitive mp fps vs single player open world action adventure? Nowhere near the same ballpark, so the games arent 'competing' against each other.

[Brettman2008]

I think the amount Microsoft would need to pay to keep the franchise exclusive would be pretty astronomical. I think Titanfall will sell millions on Xbox One and the sequel would be even bigger on PS4 due to its larger install base.

[barb_wire]

If you think about it.. maybe this deal between EA and Microsoft was brokered when the XBone was still in it's original form.. (all that DRM).

This way, EA gets a game (digital only, no physical copies) on a system, where at the end of the day (due to DRM) they control the product, who you can play with, whether or not you can sell it and so on..

Microsoft gets out the deal, a potentially system selling game on a DRM riddled gaming console.. which was (which they found out rather quickly) a hard sell to the gaming public.

Respawn, despite being made up of industry veterans, go along with the deal (trust me, they always knew Titanfall was going to be XB/PC only) after, all, first game from the new company and it's guaranteed money, both from EA and Microsoft.

As for the actual topic.. I don't believe EA gives a rat's ass whether Titanfall is on the PS3/PS4 - they already made the deal to exclude 86mil potential customers, probably over a year ago.. Will be interesting to see if shareholders of EA have the same opinion though.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

I hope Infamous sells well. Sucker Punch do good work and deserve a hit. Being early in the life cycle on PS4 and basically the only big AAA on horizon I think that will bode well for the game.

[TheTwelve]

No worries. It'll sell a ton.

[brianunfried]

Titanfall with never be the COD killer until its on all platforms.

[TheDarpaChief]

This article is pointless, dark souls 2 supercedes both of these games. How about instead of trash talking infamous or titanfall youtube views you just play the games if they are so great. Only reason why I'm on here is cause I'm stuck at the dmv bored to tears

[Flames76]

Haha these pathetic fanboy articles are so funny.Second son cant match titanfall sells bottom line case closed so stop with these BS here.It just makes sony fanboys look stupid to be honest.Also EA never said anything about being sorry for not bringing titanfall to the PS4.Fact is titanfall would had flopped on the PS4 hell look at the playstation fanboys they hate the game dont want anything to do with it.Plus its rumor that respawn has said with so much hate from the playstation community that there is a chance that titanfall 2 wont make it to the PS4 either.Titanfall had over a million pre orders worldwide second son could never hit those number hell infamous 2 only sold 1.6 million lol

[Kingoftherodeo]

Well this is useless one game being talked anout more than the other. One has yet to be released

[dragonopt1]

Who cares about Titanfall, I'd rather have Infamous. I played Titanfall on my friends PC last night and wasn't impressed. The game was fun for the first hour but the maps seemed the same and with only it being 6v6 there was a lot of pausing between battles trying to search for more players. Can't wait for next week though!

[OiNioB]

A lot of pausing you say?
Stop BSing

This is quite possibly the most fast paced FPS I've ever played.

I can go a whole match without a single pause.

kill a pilot , get to a higher point kill some grunts to reduce titan countdown, sneak some shots in on an enemy titan jump around and avoid being seen....

"the maps seem the same"
I'm sure you didn't play all the maps within an hour,
there nothing alike

[Bhai]

What dragonopt1 is trying to say is that there is a persistent feeling of lack of variety that gives you a lessening impression. What I got from the game was that it feels nothing more that what I've seen with the classic Unreal Tournament games with cheats enabled... I got mech warrior like bots into this game, I don't get hurt due to gravity, I couldn't destroy the world and that's basically it.
Tech-wise, there is nothing next-gen... please argue with me really,

-6 v 6? Today??? Is it even taxing enough to drop the framerate?
-No collateral damage? Its mechs we're talking about here people!
-No physics onslaught? where are next-gen particles? next-gen water, grass, cloth, .... and explosions are past tense man... in a bad way I mean.
-Man, the texture work and sky-boxing is great but nothing that PS3 or X360 couldn't do...

So yes people, you can't shake the feeling its been given free passes all around people,just to save Xbone's a$$ when there's basically nothing pulling it around.
Why aren't any reviews recommending it on the X360? If they're sincere with the game then they should promote it on all platforms its at, if its all that revolutionary and all. Its a collaborative effort to promote Xbone's image that's all.

[Speak_da_Truth]

at this point i don't give a f*ck about titanfall whether it comes to playstation or not

[OiNioB]

With the hate that Titanfall was getting from the Community(specifically PS fans, COD haters, MS haters and EA haters combined) I wouldn't be surprised if the sequel stayed exclusive

The reaction online that Respawn has received for making such a fun game is disgusting.

Click bait articles are through the roof, even though sales look good the gaming industry is now a fraction of what it used to be and after reading the hypocritical comments in the past few articles the future doesn't look good at all :/

[younglj01]

@Axiniy

Personally I think you're reading too much in some people views.So people are really truly upset about TitanFall.Not everyone that plays a game is a fanboy aka dumbest term ever created.I will play any game if it can bring me excitement.I loved MW2 3rd person game-mode.With the amount of playing that game I think I have the right to say that TitanFall is nothing but CoD:MW2 Mech DLC they had plan for 360/PS3/PC....

There is nothing wrong with Respawn Ent trying to re-invent the FPS genre again, but atleast try hard then this.I was thrill when I heard about Respawn Ent joining EA and creating a new IP.Yes it is fun but where is the "challenge"?

[OiNioB]

Well Said, though Respawn are really focused on this game being balanced as much as possible and after about 10+ hours of playing I can say they have done a hell of a job for a game with mechs humans and maps that I can FULLY EXPLORE. I only wish COD had this much balance, one of the things I hate most about the recent CODs is the restrictions they've put on a player when designing their maps

MW3 we were LITERALLY only allowed to climb on specific trash dumpsters.

a matchmaking system would be nice though and they have stated they are looking into adding a good bit of additional content in the near future(see twitter)

[younglj01]

With the launch of BF4 and now we have TF not selling as much as MS and EA thought....I wonder if it's possible for DICE and Respawn Ent. void their contract and go the indie route?
This-gen is off to an bizarre beginning.

If Sony continue to sell at this rate before E3.Don't be surprise if Sony announce some 3rd party exclusives for PS4.I'm taking projects from well respected developers that have secret deals with Sony ICE Team......

[stinkytofus]

i went to costco two months ago, the same pallet of xbox one's still there, around 70 left on the pallet

i went back last month, i think 4 were gone, i'll say around 66 left

i went back yesterday, around 8 is gone, that pallet has a good 58 xbox one's left

microsoft overstocked and the demand is just not there

wait till metal gear solid 5 comes out... damn.... lolz

[GraveLord]

Hey EA, don't be sorry. Just bring the gamer over us on PS4.

[quenomamen]

Speak for yourself, I could care less if it ever comes to PS4

[quenomamen]

$60 for a last gen looking, 6vs6 MP only game where they will then sell us DLC at $15 a pop or $60 season pass ? No thanks EA, we're still walking funny over the reaming we took over BF4's broken ass. Keep your sorry game, besides we all know it will not run without Teh Powa of da Cloud !

[HacSawJimThugin]

$60 season pass?? It clearly states 24.99 on the marketplace dashboard. Stop with misinformation. If you were referring to a different game then please clarify.

For the millionth time 6v6 works and it's awesome.

[Ginesis]

Let the disagrees rain because this guy said absolutely nothing that could be considered concrete. It was a lot of "this person told me this and that person told me that and I heard this and that happened. What a joke.

[Keregan]

Infamous doesn't looks really entertaining to me. the city looks empty and the gameplay seems repetitive and boring.

[metatronx]

the same could be said about TF, boring and repetitive...

[corvusmd]

This article just sounds like fanboy bull. Take a step back and look at it, and it makes more sense. OF COURSE infamous will sell like hotcakes. 6 mil PS4 owners have been waiting for a game to play since November...there is a huge drought in games since then. I wouldn't be surprised if it sold 6 mil copies. The part about EA being sorry sounds stupid. there are only 2 mil more Global owners of a PS4 than XB1 (based on latest PS4 numbers and month old XB1 numbers). Out of those 2 mil, how many want the game? Then out of those...how many don't own a computer or XB1 (forget 360)? I guarantee that whatever MS paid for the exclusive rights is well worth it. Not to mention all the future owners of XB1 will also grab this game.

More to the point, if you go to respawns website right now...it's still up, there is an article that says they went to Sony and MS with this idea for a game, Sony had a chance and couldn't make the game work because they didn't have a large enough dedicated server/cloud compute system in place. MS did (go ahead and downvote me all you want, it's true, go see for yourself). So in that regard, Sony should be apologizing to Respawn/EA, not the other way around. MS on the other hand enabled Respawn to actually make the game. I'm not saying the "the cloud is some magic sauce", but it IS a real thing, and Sony doesn't have it...so they don't have Titanfall...at least not until they catch up in this area...again...read it for yourself on the Respawn website, instead of taking the words of bitter posters here. Past THAT...Titanfall has now solidified itself as a strong new IP that IS helping sell XB1's (at least 1 mil more as of 3 days ago IF rumors are correct). Which means that the relationship between MS and EA/Respawn is now golden...MS will cater to their every need now, which is something Sony has snubbed their nose at them with for at least a year now....again...it's not EA that needs to apologize here. IF someone at EA said "sorry", it was probably just about being polite...cause in every other aspect it just sounds wrong.

Xbox On

Go to Titanfall

[H0RSE]

I think many from the Sony camp want Titanfall to come to PS4/3, simply to take away any "upper-hand" or "bragging rights" MS fans currently have in the "console war" due to MS having exclusive rights to a game that has received positive reviews, continued success, and growing popularity. I don't even think some of those who want this game on PS, even want to play it - they essentially just want the name/brand to not be exclusively tied to MS.

[ThatBlackDude187]

they should be sorry

[gamer2013]

TF is on three different platforms as it is anything after that is just gravy.

[cell989]

I just think it's funny to know that Titanfall would have sold more on PS4 than xbone and it would have performed better

[BABY-JEDI]

Social Metrics? WTF is wrong with you people? Seriously. Enjoy your gaming & stop the BS please. Some of these comments are really scraping the bottom of the barrel (including this one).

[Ethereal]

I am glad infamous is getting credit where it is deserved! Ill be spending my money on inFamous come the 21st.

[jasonpugh]

Honestly who cares. Just enjoy what you enjoy. Case closed. Everyone can go back to playing now.

[aragon]

nice rumour however i thought ps4 owners didnt want cod with mechs why are there so many comments on they should have brought it to ps4 to do more? is this the first time in history a 3rd party made a game exclusive to one console? and for examples of why i prefer multiplayer games on xbox vs ps3? cod xbox live match making easier and quicker than on psn, soul calibur 4 and 5 matchmaking quicker, live has never been down for a month, i have never personally had issues with live unless my isp was acting a fool; same cant be said for psn.

[palaeomerus]

"Industry Insider" rumors are considered news again post CBOAT fail. Sigh.

[ARESWARLORD]

I bought a xbox one for titan fall and the game is great. It gives me the same next gen feeling as when I first played Mario on NES Altered Beast on Genesis, Twisted Metal on PS one, GOW on PS2, Halo on Xbox. Call of Duty 2 on Xbox 360, GOW 3 on PS3, It is the first real game of this NEXT generation. I have Ghosts and Knact and Injustice and Killzone on my PS4 and god knows this game kills them. Titanfall deserves respect. Its fresh as the Dreamcast was. I am not buying Infamous until a few price drops.

[The_devils_chum]

Eat shit and die EA along with that CEO that looks like an over sized cabbage patch doll.

[urwifeminder]

Trying to attach infamous to titanfall articles seems like a desperate attempt to give the game some relevance to xb1 gamers lol , well that's the advertising budget blown .

[Inferno30]

Both games are totally different from each other so who cares which one is more "talked about" Titanfall is a multiplayer only fps and the Infamous is a 3rd person story driven open world game. Good month if you own both systems or a gaming PC and PS4.

[Brettman2008]

At least Titanfall is mixing up the FPS genre, like Evolve will do when it is released later this year. Need more fresh IP's to do well rather than the same generic franchises.

[GoPanthers999]

TF was #3 on the Today Show this week on social media, Infamous was nowhere. This article is pure fanboy bs.

This game is called Call of Duty Titanfall, people will continue to flop to this franchise.

Can't believe that some people here are so bent over brands it's amazing.. xbox, ps, just corporations, stop being mindless zombies and be happy our generation gets to play such great games. titanfall is awesome and infamous is going to be great so just take a chill pill and calm the f**k down.

I think Titanfall is being more talked about honestly, but with more people owning a PS4 currently I wouldn't be surprised if Infamous is more popular. Both are must buys if you have either console IMO, I don't understand why it matters so much which game is being talked about more. Seems like every article these days fires a shot to get another fanboy war going, people just want reads so they do the obvious and take the easy way out and submit more flame bait.

Why are gamers comparing 2 completely different games? Titanfall is the best FPS game on the market where as Infamous will be a good open world game, I am not sure if its going to be better then GTA5 (most likely not) People need to stop comparing different genres for different people. Mario outsells everything because its a G rated game and a Platformer. Titanfall is 15+ and a FPS game and Infamous is most likely 15+ and an open world game. All different games for different tastes.

Hahahaha that's funny, sorry eh ? xD

Why N4G approves articles full of lies?

[Animal Mutha 76]

Wow.

N4SG. Another flame bait title. Only surprise was this wasn't Maria.

What has infamous got to do with Titanfall anyway?

[stormfire78412]

Lol, I thought ps4 fanboys didnt want titanfall on there system, because titanfall is just call of duty with mechs, or its just another boring and repetitive fps...i can tell that ps4 fans really do want the game and they're really butthurt because they can't play it....lmao. Xbox....FTW!!!

Is there a way to downvote this type of story in its entirety?

[Condemnedman]

Yeh Right!

[MultiConsoleGamer]

Calling complete and total bullshit on the EA / Titanfall thing. Seriously. If this so called "insider" doesn't know about the back room deals and partnerships / alliance between EA and MS then he isn't a reliable source nor is he a real "insider."

Pro-Tip: The current head of EA used to work for f****** Microsoft!

Really people. Really.

Santa Monica should be worried not to have released Second Son on multiple systems. Every game loses out on Sales when restricted to 1 platform. at least Titanfall is available on 3.

[Berenwulf]

Does it matter? I don't understand this rivalry...

Bought TF and imo after playing it it should be f2p because it's NOT worth the money! The so called storyline missions or what u call them takes 4 hrs to complete ALL of them 4 HRS! And then it's the same thing as all other FPS multiplayer experiences with a few changes like the titans of course which I do not like it's more fun just being on foot imo, and the burncards which is a good idea but not enough imo.

And the grunts or AI or whatever u wanna call them are soooo stupid it isn't even funny I understand they aren't supposed to be smart AI but the last game I played I stood in front of 2 enemy AI for like 10 seconds right in front not behind cover or anything and they could not kill me even then, and I'm not the only one that has have this happen if u don't believe me u can watch angryjoe's review of the game that's making the AI little too stupid for my taste.

In all honesty I regret buying TF and I want my money back.

The worst thing is now I don't have the money for Infamous SS for a few weeks either :-(

And remember Xbone fanboys all of this is just my opinion so u don't have to get all riled up and cry ok?

[CanineSnow]

Your're the dumbass for buying the game in the first place

[CanineSnow]

Fuck N4G
