With the release of the Xbox 360 version now in full swing, are EA underplaying the massive visual difference between last and next gen gaming with their latest advertising for TitanFall?
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.
The two versions are close but not that close. Ea just want to hype their game to the max. Nothing new about that. If they wanted sales it should have been a multi format release.
The lighting and reflection on xb1 are great. Detail levels much clearer, and about what you'd expect. Still, the xb360 version is not that bad.
dude they're a generation apart. i don't see why this is a big deal
Titanfall hype is pretty much gone. They dont want to completely kill off the last remainder of it, by saying "The Xbox One version looks so much better".
EA dun goofed by not releasing all versions at the same time. Better hope the money Microsoft paid them was enough for the sacrifice of no PS4 and PS3 version. A delayed 360 port, which has no hype going for it and giving away the game for free with every Xbox One since the games launch.
Microsoft and EA still dont want to say how many copies the game sold.
In some ways, the game doesn't look like it pushes the Xbox One or PC so it might be fair to suggest the last gen version holds up against those if you don't care about graphics. Framerate however is another matter.
