Capcom: SF V will never see a release on XBox
- Thread starter Repetae
- Start date
I for one like exclusive games. I prefer to get the best game possible and not some crap port. Granted that doesn't apply to sf but still. Games built from the ground up for a specific platform over ports any day.
Pop-culture wise - Street Fighter is bigger. It's one of the go to parodies. Within the gaming world, Tomb Raider is currently more successful and relevant. It'll be interesting to see how console exclusivity effects each game, but fact of the matter is, if I'm betting on who will get the most sales, Tomb Raider wins. It's a far more popular genre with way less sequel fatigue.
As for SF5 staying exclusive, I doubt it. What's the running joke? Hyper Alpha Omega X 3D tournament edition? SF5 will stay exclusive, but I doubt xbox owners won't be denied an opportunity to play any Street Fighter 5 games on their console.

What percentage of Xbox One owners will buy Tomb Raider in Q4 2014?
What percentage of PS4 owners will buy SFV in Q1/Q2 2015?
I wasn't sure when SFV was supposed to be released. I think you have to give both games a 2-3 month window to see how they sell. If SFV releases in March, I didn't want to cut off its Q2 sales.
I actually think TR is bigger in both, and the numbers prove that...
Do you have any data to back up the claim that SF is bigger within "pop-culture"? I'd actually argue if anything, it's probably just the opposite, but the facts so far only show TR being more relevant, more popular, and selling through significantly more.
Depends. SF 4 sold a little over 3 million. MK9 sold around 4 million.
Street fighter at its most popular(on console) sold little over 6 million.
They continue to sell and get exposure over the years due to there competitive nature with many funded tourneys.
Vanilla, or all 10 versions of SF4.
Anyway, I bought 2 versions, one for X360 (super street fighter 4), one for PC (super street fighter 4 arcade edition).
Its amazing how little they add to a version & sell it as a full game. Add 4 characters, never mind one of them is evil version of Ryu, some balancing, & sell as arcade edition.Not even bother to add some stages.
Capcom, king of milking.
Not to mention on disk DRM. I manage to found the location where they keep the 'DLC' costumes on my PC, change a few file names, & 'unlocked' the DLC costumes on my PC. So shameful.

Good to see as usual you are providing sources yourself.
EDIT: Flynn once again pulling the 'rate things as funny because I can't win arguments' tactics.

The numbers I generally share are easily accessible from online sources.
Menace's numbers don't match any numbers online I can find.
SF4 actually sold much better than he noted, and SF2 sold significantly more than he mentions... Take 10 minutes to find those numbers from credible sources, and you'll see.
