TitanFall at #1 and #4

Well done Respawn

Does anyone remember those ridiculous articles about TF not lasting, me neither.

Good to see X1 still selling well in the UK

@ Lukas, I'm paying attention to Global sales of TF, be interesting to see it spike again in September

@ Likas, considering the install base, yes

@ Lukas, they all combine to put TF in the top 5 globally

@ Lukas, France it is, France has less than half number of X1 as PS, yet TF is less than 15% behind ISS in total sales, like I said, TF is doing very well.

lol at ppl saying TF is a free game, that would be a $500 purchase, I guess NewMonday is trying to say that TF is a system seller then.

"Does anyone remember those ridiculous articles about TF not lasting, me neither."

I'm not sure....i guess it depends on which countries you choose to pay attention to. ;) For some people, France and Germany don't exist.

"@ Lukas, I'm paying attention to Global sales of TF, be interesting to see it spike again in September"

Clearly you aren't. You ignore countries where TF isn't do well. You only comment on the ones that show TF doing well. For example, you plainly ignore Germany and France, TF is at #26 (360), #41 (PC) and #56 (X1). "Dat staying power" for those regions too?

NewMonday4408d ago (Edited 4408d ago )

Titanfall is a free game in the UK, like Knack in Japan, so it is actually doing bad because it is not making money, and EA didn't talk about profits from the game in the last financial report.

it is doing worse than Homefront, the game that caused THQ bankruptcy

Bundi4407d ago (Edited 4407d ago )

Newmonday, explain to me how these numbers support your logic. Xbox One has sold more units than Titanfall games this week. This means VGChartz is not tracking the digital copies that come free with every Xbox in the UK.

Vgchartz does not track digital bundles as there is no way to tell how many have actually been downloaded.

inFamous is doing worse than Titanfall and by extension Homefront, the game you claim sunk THQ. That plus Sony is knocking on bankruptcy so I dunno why you of all people would want to open that can of worms.

NewMonday4407d ago

@Bundi
the UK market still has pre-Titanfall SKUs

and all Sony games have moderate budgets and they hardly spend anything on marketing.

Titanfall is made to sell over 10 million minimum and it is barley over 1 million now.

morganfell4407d ago (Edited 4407d ago )

Oh look, it 's a contradiciton to vgchartz. Of course I could throw darts at numbers on the wall and beat vgchartz. So either Amazon is not indicative of UK sales or else vgcharttz, proven wrong time and again is in error. But unlike vgchartz, as least those numbers from Amazon are factual.

Bigpappy4407d ago

Lukas you are beginning to sound more and more like every other angry fanboy on the site. You say you have an X1 but you are first in line to jump on anyone how points out a positive on the system.

For you to jump all over this guy about a general statement, which is in fact wholly true, by brining up countries where Xbox has never been a big seller, shows what lengths you are willing to go to try to downplay his point.

Titan Falls may not be your cup of tea, but it is the main reason Xbox is still selling very well. Then you look at the 360 version and that is also a consistent seller. So if you want to argue that it is in decline, may be you can point to any game that has been more consistent so far this year.

Eonjay4407d ago

I wouldn't get to worked up about it. After all NPD is tomorrow and VGChartzs says its a win for Xbox One. Would you like to make your own prediction?

VegasDawg4407d ago (Edited 4407d ago )

LOL, you are reaching man, there is a time to just to get quiet and just walk away.

Lukas is a fanBOY I can sum up all his post: In my best caveman voice, Sony good MS bad, every post I see he does the same thing. The bubbles prove it say anything remotely good about MS and you will get flamed, talk like Sony is God and bubbles for days.

morganfell4407d ago

@Eonjay,

The PS4 by 70K.

malokevi4407d ago

Hey lukey-poo, you and Axios should walk down the street, hold hands, and talk merrily about game/console sales.

Also...

@malokevi

We all know why people care dont we? Because most people here need good sales for their platform of choice to justify their "allegiance".

PS4isKing_824407d ago

@eonjay npd is next Thursday on the 15th, not tomorrow.

Eonjay4407d ago

@PS4isKing_82

"@ Likas, considering the install base, yes"

Lmfao, wow. #56 is not considered as having "staying power"....no matter what way you try and spin it. You are insane. TF could be at the bottom of the list and you would find some way to spin it into a positive.

Week after week TF has dropped further down the list in Germany and France, that's literally the opposite of having staying power. But i guess only the UK and US count, right?

DJustinUNCHAIND4407d ago

Lukas, you counting Germany is grasping at straws because none of the consoles or games for that matter have been lighting up the charts.

Christopher4407d ago

***lol at ppl saying TF is a free game, that would be a $500 purchase, I guess NewMonday is trying to say that TF is a system seller then.***

Actually only £350 w/the game. Same cost as just a PS4. That's why you see spike in XBO and Titanfall sales in the UK.

Keep educating them Axios2 Titanfall has sold GREAT for XB1. Remember all those it will only sell on PC and 360 comments, those people sure disappeared. XB1 gaining steam in the UK.

JMyers4407d ago (Edited 4407d ago )

@Axios2

Some points you choose to forget:

1) TitanFall is Free in the UK with XBONEs.
2) The XBONE is now £100 lower than at Launch
3) No new games to play on XBONE, so TitanFall will have a long slow burn in terms of Sales.
4) Story much more different in the rest of Europe, which vastly outweighs the UK Market.

7 out of top 10 xbox . MS ftw

Tedakin4407d ago

Titanfall deserves it. I'm still playing it daily 2 months later. most games I never touch again after the first week.

Automatic794407d ago

Titanfall excellent game those that have not picked it up go support the game.

Predaking774407d ago

I will, when it releases on PS4 @ 1080p with a decent single player campaign.

Automatic794407d ago

@Predaking

Limiting yourself to an up in the air thought is why you will not get to enjoy a great game.

Predaking774403d ago

@Michaellito79

So you are telling me to spend $660 (console, taxes, game and Xbox live) just to play 1 game that just run at 792p without a single player campaign so I don't limit my self?

Sorry but that is not an attractive offer. I rather wait for a better Titanfall experience on PS4.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio32d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing32d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9232d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit32d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing32d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9231d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
