    Same game different day. The maps are small the titans not terribly titanic. The game play is exactly the same uninspired first person boilerplate mutiplayer game that you know and are tired of and as a result Titanfall gets old quick. Forget about a story, no such thing in Titanfall. I picked it up in a Redbox and am thankful that I didn't drop 60 dollars it.

    The Xbox 360 version of Titanfall isn't half bad, it's not nearly as good as the Xbox One and PC versions, but it's a decent version. The game runs at (around) 35fps at 600p, which is good for a 10 year old tri-core console.

    Titanfall lacks depth. There are only 10 weapons, all of which feel generic (aside from the smart pistol).

This is the same multiplayer in a moshpit setting with some very simple voiceovers in the pre-game lobby. It's extremely hard to follow. The game should be $10 not $60. The lack of content is almost to the level of trolling. They simply use their brand name and history with cod as a way to trick people into buying this unfinished game. Even now they just released the private matches. This is unheard of as every standard FPS game in the last 10 years has had this option. Half of my friends have already stopped playing and it's because there is nothing left to do. Every map feels too complex for it's own good and you can't really get better. If you really pay attention you will see that a vast majority of the map is always unpopulated. The AI serve no purpose and don't play the objective. They are simply a distraction and fodder for unskilled players. I feel this game was trying to appeal to non FPS gamers. There's a reason that the PC version already has trouble finding matches. The xbox version will suffer from longevity because it's the same game. It also requires you to be online to play. It's a DMR game and when the servers don't work you can't do anything. The game has had many exploits and players have abused them to absurd levels. Please don't support a game that takes the FPS genre several steps back and robs players by releasing the game in alpha form (missing features, many bugs and glitches).… Expand

Many games I am the only player in double figures. As a 2 kd player in every cod and halo game I found this to be terribly boring. It's better than Halo 4, but worse than Cod Ghosts or Black Ops 2. These past couple years for me has been nothing but disappointment as not a single one of these AAA games live up to their hype. Titanfall suffers from a small roster of weapons, lack of skill based matchmaking, very few gametypes, and most of the maps are garbage. The gameplay formula is this: rush to highest roof on map, camp with carbine or lmg, get titan before anyone else, do damage until players get their unearned titans, lose titan by getting shot in the back or 2v1 and repeat. The titan combat is extremely boring. The only good action is if you get the first titan, but burn cards can ruin that anyway. Burn cards take no skill to earn and you don't unlock them like killstreaks. You can literally start the match with something completely overpowered like mini map hack or even a full titan. It's just not a competitive game in any way and it severely lacks depth in customization and gameplay.… Expand

    I have now put in 24 hours of gameplay so I think it's time to vent. This game is a huge disappointment. I want to first say that Modern warfare 2 is my favorite game of all time.

I'm not sure what went on here, but it's clear Respawn didn't have enough time to finish the game. I had not watched much gameplay on other consoles until today because I didn't want to spoil the game. Big regret on my part. I guess the art team didn't follow respawn because this game is ugly. It's not bright and realistic like MW2. I thought there was suppose to be a cooperative campaign mode (I knew there was no singe player, but in one of the interviews Vince Zampella said there would be a story). There's no cutscenes or anything. There's like a drawing at the end after you finish playing a bunch of multiplayer matches. That's just it. They call it campaign, but it's just multiplayer. It's like they rushed it out last minute just to say it has a campaign. I already generated and there's really not much to unlock. In MW2 there were tons of attachments and weapons and in this game it's like they went as cheap as possible. As far as I can see there is no way to unlock any camo like gold or anything. There is only two perk slots and half the perks are pointless and just effect AI or something you will never use. The burn cards are like free killstreaks that any bum can pull out and completely break momentum. It feels like it was made to be a free to play game with the cards, but they realized it's trash so they just decided to get their $60 and pack up.… Expand

You die so quickly after the start of a firefight that you don't get the chance to retaliate. If you see them before they see you you win. And vice versa. However once you enter your Titan you have the opposite problem. Battle between Titans can be long and drawn out and you get so little progress feedback that you can kill an enemy Titan without realising it and you can go from full health to dead with the same problem. I am sure that some people will love this game but for me I'm afraid I'll have to crack open Halo Reach. Again.… Expand

    this thing is a hunk o crap. if your like me and got bored of cod then your going to get sloppy seconds with this one.

    the gameplay it's self is fine. wall running and double jumping keep me playing about 2 hours longer then normal. being able to get on top of just about every building inside and out is fresh, gives a nice open feeling. the titans kept me playing for another 2 or so    this thing is a hunk o crap. if your like me and got bored of cod then your going to get sloppy seconds with this one.

    the gameplay it's self is fine. wall running and double jumping keep me playing about 2 hours longer then normal. being able to get on top of just about every building inside and out is fresh, gives a nice open feeling. the titans kept me playing for another 2 or so hours longer then i would have. so i got around 5 hours in. if you played any FPS's before then prepare yourself for pretty much nothing new.

    this game has no heart put into it. the maps are motionless. the plants, clouds sky, buildings everything is in a solid motionless state. no movement, no sounds no trees moving back in forth in the breeze, The texture resolution is real bad. everything even at a distance is blocky, not like mindcraft but it's a step in that direction. character skins look like they belong on a N64. everything, and i mean everything is blurry and has a cartoonish cheap unfinished look to it. it doesn't take any effort to notice the poor artwork. its as if they didn't care about what they were doing. the drop ship sequences before each match starts does a real good job of setting the tone for how bad this stuff looks. it's almost insulting to say it's worth 65 dollars new.

    at first i ignored complaints about frames per second being low because i though this was overly critical, turns out there is some truth in it. in fact there is a lot of truth. this thing is rarely running at 30 frames a second. more like 20 to 25. which doesn't make sence to me considering how low the resolution is, this thing should be pegged at 60fps no problem. watching titans move around reminds me of the animations of characters in mortal combat 2 on the sega genesis. it looks like the lego movie stop animation and it sucks. i wish i could say at least the titans look really good but they dont. whats a good example? i dunno i usually dont play games that look this bad. everything reminds me of what games were like on the n64 and ps1.

    the explosions and rocket fire. on the ps1 and N64 they did things that would cause objects in the game to always be facing you no matter what side you looked at them. because they lacked processing power and graphics to do a true 3 denominational object they just did 2d objects. you could tell because if you looked at something and walked around in it 360 degrees you always saw the exact same thing. well guess what. they pulled that stunt on titanfall. if this was some low budget indi game no one herd of i wouldn't question it. but this is kinda a big title to be half fasting these hugely important aspects like explosions. and it's same same story with every part of the game. the maps show zero interaction with the players fighting a battle. no sorch marks from explosions, no bullet holes i walls. little the map changes zero from start to finish. ok maybe you can break windows.

    no single player or campaign mode, fine with me, yeah you can't co-op with what they did put in but heck. i only care about multi player so if it's more content for MP bring it on. well they did and guess what they replaced it with? nothing. Modern warfare 2 spec ops, campagne and mutli player that lasted years and the game looked absolutely gorgeous even by todays standards, the game these guys are known for has more content in campaign mode then titanfall has in total. to put it simply, they left out single player and added nothing to replace it.

    i recommend every one do what i did. go to gamestop and get a used copy for 55 bucks or what ever. 7 days to return it for a full refund. if you can get it off craigslist for 40 you could probably break even. try it for a day and your going to know in the first 30 seconds of playing whether it's the game for you or not. i think it's a waste of time    … Expand

The burn card system introduces too much random overpoweredness into encounters, the focus on killing minions makes it feel like a single player game that just happens to have other people in it, not enough game modes... only a few maps, though I don't think that matters since all the maps play essentially the same anyway, I've played through the entire first "gen" of this game and wouldn't be able to tell you the name of any of the maps because it just doesn't matter.

    Also, the performance is just terrible on the Xbox One. For a game that only looks marginally better than an Xbox 360 game you'd expect not to have to deal with constant frame-rate stuttering and massive screen tearing, but alas, those are your constant companions in this game.

    It is kind of sad that this game isn't even the best multiplayer-focused FPS game published by EA for the Xbox One, that honor would go to Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare which is much more fun and interesting than this steaming turd.    … Expand

    This game looks amazing, and plays well. The one big problem is that is feels unfinished. The game focuses on multiplayer and only that, but there are a limited amount of game modes. If this game had more to do with it I would give it a very high rating. The campaign is also nothing special, just online matches with a lot dialogue. Very disappointed.

The amount of story offered in Titanfall's "campaign" mode makes Left 4 Dead seem like Metal Gear.

    The reviews I've read on several websites seem on point with the overall quality of the content offered. The problem is that what's offered for $60, seems like it's the amount of content you'd expect from a $30 XBLA title, although admittedly higher quality.

    At the end of the day, the multiplayer is not a step above the multiplayer found in competing games which offer much more content for the same price, many of which released many years ago. Half a game gets half the score I would have liked to have given it otherwise. 4.5/10    … Expand

    Fails to match up with the visual splendor and high framerates of the PC version. Still, Titanfall is quite enjoyable even on last-gen hardware. It's a real shame that he technical issues end up feeling quite secondary compared to the fact that Titanfall is so desperately in need of new content. [June 2014]
