Lol the Faily Star.

Great game, but the Daily Star could tell me the sky is blue and I'd question them on it.

Has anyone realized how EASY AND SKILL-LESS this game is???? it's getting all these reviews, but the game is easy as hell... a brain dead monkey can shoot dumb AI that doesn't shoot at you.. And let's not even talk about the roof campers.. this game really isn't all that.. it's just that IGN has hyped it up to the point of absurdity..

Trust me when I tell you you're not alone. Fun game but wears thin fast. In Attrition the games end too freaking fast. Respawn needs to chill the replenishing of killed grunts. It just seems that which ever teams kills the most grunts wins 98% of the time. That is pathetic and like you said takes NO SKILL.

I'm going to keep plugging away at it and hope it grows on me but I have nothing to do for the next 3 days and I'm sitting here surfing the net and not playing TF.

Tonight I'm jumping on with a few friends a couple of which picked up the X1 TF bundle. Maybe if grouped with some guys I know it will make for a different experience. I'm looking forward to their initial impressions on the game. They are all shooter fans. I haven't told them mine.

Damn microsoft are shelling out laods of $$$ to promote titanfall

IanVanCheese3688d ago

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I see what you did there...

MRMagoo1233688d ago

Hmmmm a news paper doing games reviews huh lol

On another note i wonder if anyone will complain about this being an article submitted by maria even tho the score is high this time ? Or can ppl only have an opinion on titanfall (which imo is pretty boring) if its a good one ?

I mean if i was giving this game an honest review i couldnt give it more than a 7.5 after giving it a few good hours at my friends house on pc.

Team_Litt3688d ago

Even when playing it at somebody else's place, we still have to specify that it was on PC, lol. Like anyone expects a higher score from folks like you.

Activemessiah3688d ago

i wouldn't call them a newspaper... more tabloid who's interest are in who slept with who this week.

The Meerkat3688d ago

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.

MadLad587d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g586d ago (Edited 586d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

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."

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.

littletad867d ago

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.

Ethereal865d ago

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.
