Destructoid: "Those that managed to play Respawn Entertianment's Titanfall at E3 this year had the ultimate bragging rights. Players were like small-time celebs at evening events, with others asking everything they could about the title. Show attendees ran as fast as they could when the doors opened at the Los Angeles Convention Center just to get in line for the behind-closed-doors showing of the game. This was a totally hands-off experience, but it was still enough to be the talk of the show."
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."
Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.
Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.
This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.
I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.
Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
Have to agree it was rather epic felt next gen the new cod has finally arrived resapawn will do very well.
Really
I was really disappointed with it, it looked like COD but in the future with Mechanoids.
The time it's been in development and the hype thats been there for it I was expecting something amazing and totally different.
Poor choice. A multiplayer shooter with mechs and pilots? Really? That's your best game of E3? I'd go with The Division, Destiny, or Infamous Second Son before this title. Not to mention it was supposedly running off a pc, as were all other Xbox One games at E3. It's funny how the Titanfall folks were saying "we couldn't possibly make this game without the cloud computing" when they weren't even running off the hardware. What a bunch of bullshot. Everything out of Microsoft's corporate mouth (and those connected to them) lately has been very dubious if not just plain, flat, outright lies. No thank you. And am I to understand the Xbox One still has a power brick? Are you kidding me? The PS4 is more powerful with an internal power unit and it's a smaller form factor? The Sony engineers have completely embarrassed Microsoft's engineering team, once again.
Im really hyped for this game, love the art style and the action looks like its a blast to play, I trust Respawn to make a great game, I want a ps4 version!
Looks great!
