I don't think TitanFall will be big with casuals. A lot of people see futuristic shooters and dismiss them immediately (referring to casual players)

This move is pretty desperate, but there are a lot of people who don't have a capable PC to run the game, but paying 60 bucks vs 500 bucks to play TitanFall would be an easy choice for me seeing as I can run the game easily on my computer.

Titanfall will be big, until the next COD comes out at which point who knows what will happen to the player base. Microsoft is going to push it hard as shyt to the casuals since it's "exclusive" & most casual players once they see it will see it's pretty similar to COD but with mechs. Once the new COD comes though it will somehow still sell stupid numbers & the casuals will probably just go with it since it's COD.

Two different companies in two different situations.

Microsoft has a surplus of money and consoles. It makes sense for them to take a hit and try to get those consoles out the door.

Sony on the other hand is low on cash and high on demand for ps4. They arent making money off of console sales, so It would make no sense to give away one of their biggest money streams right now to people who already own the console.

A loss is not a loss. And I never said M$ was making money off of consoles sales. Nobody makes money off of console sales. They make money off of software and services.

What people miss in all the talks of the console wars is that Microsoft is still selling the most games and services, and the rest of their business is very healthy, so sacrificing some money now to get consoles into homes is not a big deal. Sony on the other hand can't afford to take that risk, which is why they went with the straightforward games machine for the lowest price possible.
