Only 311,000???

Holy fuck.

Some of us told this.

There was a Titanfall effect on February sales with the beta.

 

[Ashodin]

Pack it up guys. Ain't no one gonna buy the console until there's a better price tag.

 

[manny10032]

World Wide PS4 sales = 7 milion.
World Wide XBone sales = 5 million.


Microsoft has their work cut out for them.

Shipped

 

[SRTtoZ]

Where's the chalkboard?

 

[Ape]

Microsoft using SHIPPED numbers PLUS no solid Titanfall sales figures?!!?!?

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

If Sony keeps shipping more than they did in January and February, they will just be pouring on the gas.

 

[140.85]

Happy to see DS2 in the top 5!

 

[Kusagari]

I'm sorry but 311k for Titanfall month is fucking terrible.

MS is screwed beyond belief if they could not beat the PS4 in America this month. It's hard to put into words how screwed they are.

 

[avaya]

Where do we go from here?

We go to 2-1 then 3-1 to pushing towards 4-1. That is where we go. We have returned to the normal.

 

[Moneal]

World Wide PS4 sales = 7 milion.
World Wide XBone Shipped= 5 million.


Microsoft has their work cut out for them.

fixed that for you

 

[IAmRandom31]

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Seriously in utter shock here. I mean Microsoft spent 8 full months hyping Titanfall. Greatest game ever made. Journalists going nuts all for it. Must have system seller. Big hyped FPS in the US market. No f'in way it doesn't just go nuts over here.

Then ..... Can't even beat the Ps4 for the first month?

Legit shock for me. Sort of. As I said in precious threads I just did not feel the hype of the release from the people around me. The people MS were targeting

Still no solid Titanfall numbers and MS is resorting to shipped numbers for PR? Wow wow wow

 

[213372bu]

Wow, really says something if you sell you're brand new console to major retailers at a $50 dollar discount with the "killer app" being free alongside it.

Xbox needs to reassess themselves this E3.

 

[d1rtn4p]

Time to announce Crackdown 3 MS.

 

[antitrop]

True true, I guess I just meant I love that it has become a meme. My passions get the best of me sometimes

Just gotta chill on the hyperbowl, man.

 

[Bunta]

World Wide PS4 sales = 7 milion.
World Wide XBone shipped = 5 million.


Microsoft has their work cut out for them.

Fixed it, yo.

 

[BrokenIcarus]

311k isn't even a 100k increase to february which was a 4 week month
so February:
258k/4 = 64.5k per week.
and March:
311k/5 = 62.2k per week.

IT'S A DECREASE IN SALES PER WEEK???!!?!?! TITANFALL anti-systemseller confirmed???

 

[Aquamarine]

World Wide PS4 sales = 7 milion.
World Wide XBone sales = 5 million.


Microsoft has their work cut out for them.

XB1: 5 million shipped to retailers
Wii U: around 6 million shipped to retailers
PS4: 7 million sold-through to consumers

 

[PhoenixFyre]

First Undertaker loses at Mania and now this?! MY REALITY IS SHATTERED!

 

[Jburton]

Also 5 million shipped to stores, weak shit MS .......... what's the sold through? ...... 4.2 - 4.3 million.

Sony have at least a comfortable 3 million lead.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

LOL! Xbone is only 5 million to retailers while PS4 is 7 million sold through? WOW. No more exclusive deals like Titanfall happening for MS anymore.

 

[lightning2k3]

Can I destroy the internet?

DO IT!

 

[Baby Milo]

MS gotta be shook right now

 

[Creamium]

I don't see what's so surprising about the hw numbers. PS4 was beating XBO month after month right? People really thought Titanfall would have that big of an impact?

 

[Jarrod38]

 

[Dlacy13g]

Not really relevant to the sales data but holy shit that's a lot if true. Unless they count standby as on or some people are literally using their X1 24/7.

Remember, if you have your TV connected to your Xbox One then when you are watching TV...you are using your Xbox One. No doubt some of that time is being swallowed up by just watching TV.

 

[Replicant]

LOL what? I didn't think PS4 managed to win hardware despite Tittyfall and various Xbone discount.

And I'm shocked inFamous managed to get to number 2. Despite competition from everything else on PS4 (all software on next-gen except Lego are the highest on PS4).

 

[orion434]

Can't believe PS4 beat Xbox One against their biggest exclusive. Wasn't it Major Nelson that said Console Wars should stop... if Microsoft were #1 PR wouldn't be saying that.

 

[xxracerxx]

Whoa. That's really bad, right? Like really bad, especially for the month your flagship game comes out.

I think it is pretty shitty, especially since Titanfall was their go-to game for the month.

 

[Xater]

Bet EA is feeling fantastic about that Titanfall exclusivity thing right about now.

EA lawyers are right now hard at work figuring out how they can get it on PS4

 

[Striek]

311k is still quite a good result for the system even with the caveat of having unofficial price drops and an official free game bundle.

 

[Deadbeat]

Time to announce Crackdown 3 MS.

No. They fucked up the sequel just forget it. The franchise is dead. Leave it dead dont put more salt into the wound.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

It's over, period. Microsoft lost their last ace, and that's the end of their Xbox One hopes and dreams.

It's not hyperbole, it's not fanboy drivel. It is LITERALLY it for Xbox One. Microsoft has nothing left, nothing they can reveal tomorrow would fix the hole now created. There is no reason left for any one, hardcore or casual, to substantively invest in a Xbox One. Except if they want to play Titanfall. Which will also come to PS4 at some point.

Sony took the last reason away that anyone would NEED to own a Xbox One over a PS4 (except TV SPORTS KINECT LOL GAMING), and the cavalcade of tiny titles that will be nice but won't stir up any sales is not going to salvage the bloated, overdesigned behemoth that was Xbox One.

There may be some hardcore gamer's that stick around. Some did it for Gamecube. But the last bell tolled. Maybe next decade.

The age of Microsoft is done.

*standing ovation* You, sir, are good. lol.

LOL! Xbone is only 5 million to retailers while PS4 is 7 million sold through? WOW. No more exclusive deals like Titanfall happening for MS anymore.

Damn impressive considering the Xbox One is in less than half the markets that the PS4 is in. Come on, Let's not exaggerate. Titanfall is a very important release, no doubt about it, a very big release for MS and the Xbox One, but let's not start pretending like it's Halo. It has the potential to be a lot bigger, I still believe that, but it isn't there yet. As a multi-plat release I can see it being as big or bigger. Once everybody can play it there will be a lot less reason for people to keep forcing out "Meh, nothing special."

 

[plagiarize]

"Today, we congratulate our friends at Respawn Entertainment, and Electronic Arts, as “Titanfall” for Xbox One was named the number one selling game in March, according to NPD Group figures released today."

No. According to NPD Group figures released today, Titanfall for Xbox One AND PC was the number one selling game in March. Since we don't have the exact numbers, Second Son could have outsold Titanfall on Xbox One and the PC sales just pushed it over.

NPD provide their paying customers the individual SKU charts too. I'd presume the Xbox One SKU was the best selling individual title based on this, and we'll know for sure when we get Sony PR if they don't trump Titanfall as the best selling individual SKU.

 

[Amir0x]

Just gotta chill on the hyperbowl, man.

i love my passions, hyperbole is just part of the soup bowl I suppose. It's part of who I am

 

[endresults]

We’re also happy to share today that more than 5 million Xbox One consoles have been sold-in to retailers since our launch.

Tee-hee.

 

[Dug]

Thuway just tweeted 60k more PS4 sales. Did we already know that?

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Seriously in utter shock here. I mean Microsoft spent 8 full months hyping Titanfall. Greatest game ever made. Journalists going nuts all for it. Must have system seller. Big hyped FPS in the US market. No f'in way it doesn't just go nuts over here.

Legit shock for me. Sort of. As I said in precious threads I just did not feel the hype of the release from the people around me. The people MS were targeting

The media certainly went overboard hyping Titanfall. I'm actually shocked gamers didn't fall for it.

So respawn right now is sort of like...

'fuckk'.

258k/4 = 64.5k per week.

lol didn't think that number could get worse.

 

[GKFinns]

I honestly did not see PS4 edging out the X1 this month. Consider me truly shocked.

I do not think Microsoft is out for the count. I don't think anyone truly thinks that. I believe E3 will hold several surprises for them. I do, however, believe that this is a huge wake up call for Microsoft and there is no longer anyway they can ignore the fact that they now need a price drop STAT. If not even the month with the most marketed "true next gen" game can put them on top, they need to do something drastic.

 

[TsuWave]

damn can't believe ps4 took the hardware wow

 

[RedHotChimiChanga]

Sold-in to retailers spin...

 

[ZoddGutts]

Game Over. It's all PS4 from here on out. No wonder Microsoft was doing all those special deals and not realising numbers for TitanFall.

 

[HigherLevel]

Drop that price Phil Spencer.

 

[JaggedSac]

No. They fucked up the sequel just forget it. The franchise is dead. Leave it dead dont put more salt into the wound.

Fuck that noise. Bring on Crackdown 3.

 

[Walpurgisnacht]

 

[BrokenEchelon]

 

[Biker19]

Wow. Just...wow. After everything that Microsoft had done for March: The lower price tags. The fire sales. The TitanFall bundles. The big marketing push for the game.

All of that, & they still lost to PS4.

Hang it up, Microsoft. You're done.
