    60 bucks for nothing more than an online shooter. They made sure they kept it away from the competitive crowd and made Attrition for people who are bad at video games. You will have fun for about a week or two

    What can I say about Titanfall, that everybody wants to hear. It is NEXT GENERATION! The graphics are good, the gameplay is addictive at times and there are plenty of multiplayer "ONLY" modes to play. I still hope that more modes and hopefully an offline mode (yeah right) can be added to this game. The game is succeeding and selling well so I am VERY HAPPY to see this.

Gamers around the world are very happy with this game ( I hope the servers are fixed for South Africa). I just hope that EA does not @#$% this UP! Enjoy gamers and I will enjoy this game too for as long as the servers stay up. Yup! The only big problem that I have with online only games is that once servers crash or are taken down, NO MORE TITANFALL! So that would be $60 down the drain with no single player offline modes. Yup. Enjoy gamers. Enjoy! Expand

    Titanfall it's out and hopefully the overhype can finally die down and go away. This isn't a bad game by any stretch, but it feels like it should have been in development for couple more months.

With literally no real story to speak of, limited game modes and ALWAYS having to be online this game comes crashing down to Earth as above average at best. The first few tries playing this, Xbox One version by the way, lead to disconnects and levels of game lagginess that were unacceptable. I don't blame the game for that. I blame Microsoft for not readying themselves for a game that was hyped beyond belief. The game it's self is fast and furious though, although after about 9 hours of play I was getting bored with the modes and the inability to work on my skills in a single player type setting. Why no kind of training mode was beyond me, it didn't need to be a full story, but at least a mode where could practice moves and explore the maps to learn how to use the terrain to your advantage in the main game. Unless this game gets major support from EA and Respawn in the form of maps and new modes Titanfall will fall of the radar within the year as soon as the next overhyped game is released. Expand

    Being one the only exclusive games to come out for xbone, it is pretty well made. Fast paced action, visuals are great, but comes up short with original FPS ideas. Yes it is different to have the titans fight alongside you, but its COD and Halo had a baby gameplay. Same old concept, except for the titans. If this game was just robot fighting, it could of been alot better in my eyes.Being one the only exclusive games to come out for xbone, it is pretty well made.

Yes, it is a fun game, one in which I will likely put a decent amount of time in, but absolutely falls short of previous "console sellers" (Halo comes to mind). I wouldn't call it revolutionary (If you think mech's in a game is a new thing you must be 8 years old) but they do a relatively good job keeping the mech's balanced. Additionally, if they could boost the performance of the grunts and spectre's that would be much appreciated. You can stand in front of a group of three grunts and it will take them 20 seconds to kill you without shooting at them. Expand

    This game isn't the zero that Sony Ponies are giving it, and it's definitely not the 10 that Xbots are giving it.

    It's a slightly better FPS than Call of Duty. It just has the unenviable task of being the first big post-launch game for a new console system. Anyone giving it a ten is deluded, as is anyone giving it less than 5. Only broken games deserve a score that low, and it's not

There are other graphic issues. Tearing and some serious frame rate drops. One major annoyance is the time it takes to get into a match. Why there has to be a 70+ second count down before getting to another long loading screen is beyond me. Maybe that is just part of the "campaign" mode. Titanfall is fun, but it is just a distraction without a plot. Just a mash up of COD and Halo. My guess is the online population will drop off just as quick as Halo 4 did. I look forward to Titanfall 2 in the hopes they switch engines, make a real plot, and tweak the mechanics. Expand

    A ok game from Respawn. Graphics are decent, the game is kinda fun, not ground breaking or adictive, but very nice and good.
    It lacks soul, that is for sure, but it does try to do everything right, it just sounds and looks plastic and not much sincere, but it is not bad by any means.
    If you like FPS multiplayer, you will probably enjoy it.

So one thing that you probably already know ( if you played the beta ) is that this game is addictive. Even if you completely hate the game, you would still lose hours into it. This is mainly because it takes the twitch shooter element from Call of Duty, mixes it with the dynamic and tactical gameplay of Battlefield, infuses it with Halo's futuristic setting, puts in Mirrors Edge parkour and puts in mechs to create a totally unique and awesome gameplay experience. And instead of just taking these cool thing that we love and giving them a Titanfall paint job, Respawn have refined them and expanded upon them. However I would have liked to of had Battlefield's destruction, as shooting down starships to destroy waves of enemy's would have been amazing. The graphics are ok, and there are a decent amount of maps and mode's, but there hardly any customisation at all! No attachments for guns! WTF? No pilot customisation! WTF? And this one kills it for me... NO TITAN CUSTOMISATION! That would have awesome! To have a connection to your Titan! To have memory's of all your badass moments! To have a Titan squad with your friends! And the so called story is pointless! You don't care about any one in your squad or story ever! So if you have played the beta don't buy, if you haven't rent, or wait for a price drop. Expand

    Only good part is New Gameplay unlike Most Shooters nowdays.

    The game itself is passable, it's got some interesting concepts but does next to nothing new. it's just CoD with a new coat of paint. However, the abundance of 10/10 reviews are completely unwarranted -- And not to mention suspicious. Most of these posters have 1 review. one. For Titanfall... And many of them read suspiciously similar. But I digress.

    The bad:

    The major detraction of this game is its complete lack of content and misleading advertisement of a (nearly non existent) "campaign" which amounts to little more than a voice over during the pre-drop portion of the map. Otherwise it is the exact same as the MP. A measly three titans with no aesthetic customization and bare bones weapon/perk customization leaves a lot to be desired. The vanilla map rotation gets real old real quick as there simply are just not enough maps. A grand total of three Titans makes you wonder what exactly they spent their time doing. Surely it was not refining the concept and story. Over priced DLC and a a season-pass plan that are down right unscrupulous considering how LITTLE this game came with considering its 60 dollar pricetag. But this is a matter of opinion, and for many, not really a negative aspect.

    The titans themselves are okay. Although I'm not sure that the various classes of chassis (heavy, medium, light) actually have enough of a role to change their functionality. They basically all do the same things, have the same weapons, etc. Ultimately the differences come down to maneuverability and the differences in maneuverability between the three are negligible at best.

    The grahpics, I personally feel, are just fine, however many have cited this as something they take issue with. I believe this mostly has to do with the "next gen" tagline. I'm not sure what people expected in terms of graphical fidelity, but this seems fine to me. Some of the textures are grainy up close, but whatever. I can live with that. The truth is, the graphics are about where I expected them to be for a "next gen" console -- As a PC gamer, perhaps it is more forgivable as I realize "nextgen console" is really a "last gen PC".

    The good:

    The maps that are there are well designed for both pilots and titans, textures and graphics are decent (although many were disappointed when they heard that they were supposed to be "next gen" -- Unfortunately "next gen" consoles ultimately are the equivalent of "last gen" for PC's.)

    The gun play handles similarly to any CoD title you've ever played, making it accessible and fun.

    the "parkour" is great fun and adds another element to the typical shooter experience. Although perhaps not as innovative as Max Payne's "bullet time" system, it is, nonetheless, a nice change from your typical modern day / not so distant future shooter.

    Ripping pilots out of their titan with your own to finish them, is, quite simply, totally awesome. Although I do wish there were more animations for different styles of finishing moves. I also quite enjoy ripping the arm off the enemy titan and beating him to "death" with. it.

    It seems like this game was rushed out to meet the demands of the failing Xbone, which is a real shame as this being a direct competitor for COD and Battlefield the depth is poor. Looking forward to see what the bring with the DLC packages.

    Negatives:

    Titanfall 2 may or may not be better, but Titanfall itself just the same old shooter. The same old Call of Duty developers. Using a 10 year old outdated engine (Source, which still has a little bit of Quake left), outdated game mechanics (i.e. wallrunning taken from Warframe), overpowered weapons (Smart Pistol and Shotgun), bots that are nothing like the Massive Online Battle Arena counterparts (they don't play the objective, they're just there to make Titans easier to get, which is stupid if you ask me), and the Titans are too easy to get.

    If you want a new gaming experience, then you will NOT get it from Titanfall. It did not live up to its hype. Wait for the sequel. Them going to Microsoft for financial and marketing purposes was not a good move for their first game.

I haven't been able to get into one since the original MW. My issue with this game is not in what you have, but in what you don't.

    It has a lot of maps but many of them just feel the same. The complete lack of game modes is a huge turnoff. It just feels like you can only play basically 3 modes on repeat. Being deathmatch, capture the flag, and capture the 3 points. After maybe 5 or 6 hours of game time I could already sense how fast this was going to get old. Also the leveling system is a dumbed down version of call of duty's system. Some might argue it's equivalent but that just makes it a carbon copy at best. Nothing really innovative with it. We won't even go in the "campaign" because that's not even real. It's some voice over work with the same 2 game modes on repeat, and it doesn't make any difference if you win or lose.

    In the end the game lacks content. It's as simple as that. It feels as if they hyped it to an extreme and bought a lot of official reviews, because players everywhere just find it "ok". It comes off as either they are generating interest for Titanfall 2 or they plan to sell us all the actual content in DLC after charging us $60 to play 3 game modes for months. It doesn't have lasting appeal, and within 12 hours of purchase I had refunded my copy through origin. Take it as you will.

It doesn't deserve a 0/10. It definitely doesn't deserve a 10/10, or anyone praising it as a genre redefining game, or conversely as a giant pile of garbage.

    First off, the gameplay. This game runs very smoothly, and looks pretty good. Not great, nothing eyepopping to be honest, but it does a good job of setting atmosphere for your wall jumping, man crushing, mech combat. It is a first person shooter seamlessly blended with a mech shooter, and a level of platforming not all that common anymore. So in that regard, it makes a very good update of an oldschool shooter. However, that's where it stops. It really doesn't go any farther than that. The AI, which was touted as filling out the game to make it seem for frenetic, is atrocious, and their attempt at adding a story is insulting. There are only a few guns available (I assume more will be added in content packs, adding another 25 dollars to the price tag) and none of them are really all that interesting except for the smart pistol, which is meh anyway. You're customization options are pretty limited as well, both on mechs and on your gear, making it all feel rather bare.

    As far as maps go, they are well designed, and fun to look at and play on. They aren't particularly large, and tend to still feel a little empty. This game doesn't feel finished in that regard. I'm not going to talk about connection issues, as its too early in this games launch to tell if this will be a consistent problem. The lack of any visible team balancing can make for some incredibly frustrating, or boring matches, making it all a little luck of the draw.

    My verdict on this game is very middle of the road for a reason. I found it to be pretty mediocre, with some great moments, and some incredibly frustrating issues. you'll either love it or hate it. I would give it a shot though, either when it drops in price, or through origin, as you can get a refund within 24 hours of first playing it.

    Interesting game, but I'm already bored of it after less than a week. The game is fun, but it's essentially just another COD clone. The titans don't give you anything extra because they're pretty much just larger versions of the pilots. Kill times are too quick and the game gets really repetitive, really fast.

    Bought the Titanfall Xbox bundle and after a short time playing the game I realized why it was included for no additional cost. No offline play, weak story line and bad online arena set up.

Was almost lost when I first started up campaign mode as that title is usually reserved for offline story mode. Then you get thrown into an arena with various other players. There was little "matching" involved as it always appeared to have low level players versus high level players. Not one game was evenly matched. The controls are fairly quick to get to know and familiar to other games, this was a plus. Infantry are a bit too powerful versus the titans but I'm sure that will be balanced out in the future.

    The game offers three titans, some guns with a few mods and jetpacks with wall jumps. Expect a bland and lazy 6 vs 6 campaign with no cut scenes and play exactly similar to current MMOs,

    The concept is awesome but the result is little less then marginal - Slower then expected compared to COD Ghosts and other first person games - they should have had titan access at a higher level to get familiar with basic abilities - (datoriprogram) "Too little content. No custom games, too few game modes, way too few weapons and titans to choose from."

    Pros:
    The gameplay is solid. Unique-ish mechanics, titans are a fun addition (though I prefer to play as a pilot), and guns are well balanced.
    Graphics are excellent. Cons: Not really as original as the reviews made it seem. It's still a fairly basic shooter. Plot? What plot? Very few maps. Full game price for half a game. It's fun, but it's not really $60 worth of fun.

    It's fun, but it's not really $60 worth of fun. Particularly if they're going to make you then pay $10-15 for DLC in about a month. If you're deciding whether or not to get the standard Xbox One bundle (w/ Forza) or the Titanfall bundle, then it's definitely worth getting the Titanfall bundle (especially if they're the same price as they were when I bought my Xb-one). Otherwise, save your money and wait for a better game to come out.

'Extra' content you'll have to pay for, which I didn't; I didn't want to spend anymore than my £40's worth on just maps and a gun or two. That should be there already If I'm spending £40 for seven hours.

    That being said, the game plays great; Pilots, (Standard, on-foot players) balance perfectly against Titans. Never has there been a moment where I've said "Bollocks" after being blown to pieces by a Titan. Never have I said "No" after being blown to pieces by an enemy Pilot's anti-titan rocket launcher. Its all balanced perfectly.

    The free-running system is fantastic and adds a completely new level to the game, where Titans and buildings alike can be clambered upon and used to gain a tactical advantage, or just to lose your enemy. (As a pilot you can double jump! :D)

    Gun combat is satisfying; you find yourself zipping and diving through buildings, laying waste to enemy pilots and AI grunts* (akin to Dota's 'creeps') with speed, purpose and clinical precision. Health is limited, keeping you on your toes, while as a Titan, you're simply a big, metal badass; the game go's from ducking and diving to colossal, stubborn tanking in the change from Pilot to Titan, if you play your cards right.

    I can say that this game makes me feel great when I play, but despite this I feel as if I'm playing for nothing more than a 'prestige' rank after seven hours of entertainment. Long term, it's just lacking and empty. Guns have one or two notable attachments, and Titans have one or armaments that I only ever use. That's about it.

    Not worth the price; it needs to be built upon first. I'm looking forward to Titanfall 2.

    Titanfall isn't 2014's GOTY; if anything, it's the biggest disappointment. Titanfall is nothing short of your average CoD-grade (not good, by the way) that is devoid of content and appeal. You'll play it a good day, and then your interest will simply melt away. Titanfall is lacking of everything they needed: an addiction factor, a good amount of content, and an actual campaign.

    Although Titanfall has MANY flaws, to be fair, let's look at the pros. The graphics are extraordinary and gripping, and maybe the best thing the game has to offer. The multiplayer is fun for a short while, but soon becomes the same thing over and over again until it's quite literally a grind where the player feels obliged to play, rather than want to. The titan idea is new and unique, but ideas only get you so far.

    The game's lack of content (excluding maps) is one of the major issues. A heavy lack of weapons, perks, and abilities makes every player similar to another.

    Now yes, I know their reasoning for not having a campaign. However, I think it's a stupid reason. A campaign would add greatly needed playing time to the game.

    Overall, Titanfall is disappointing. It hasn't lived up to its expectations, and I doubt it ever will.

I could go on for ever, but I'll sum it up. Titanfall is a have baked half assed COD with a dash of innovation that was rushed out the door to sell xboxes. It could be so much more, but unfortunately is not. While this game is so undeserving of a $60 price tag (let alone a season pass) it's probably the most fun you can have with a video game in 20 minutes, but don't expect it to keep your interest for much longer than that.

    This is the definite go to game for any FPS fun, it is so different yet so familiar to the average FPS. Every online match feels different an they are filled with epic moments, in each match there are real players to fight plus titans but there are also other infantry like grunts and spectres to make the map feel like a warzone. The free running mechanic works extremely well and adds a whole new angle to attack and be attacked from, this keeps you on your toes. The titans also change how the game is played, they are stronger and can take more damage but are slow, this gives the pilot a chance to escape or fight back.

    Even though there are a lot of good things about titanfall , there are some problems. The game comes with a terrible online campaign, the story is completely pointless and it seem that this feature was a last minute addition. There are very little maps compared to other games but all of the maps feel and look differently, at launch there were only around four game modes but that has been fixed at the current time with over double that. There are also only around 10 primary weapons to choose from which really limits what you can use, the game adds features called burn card that give you a specific perk for the life that you activate it on but I found most of them to be useless due to the small amount of time you have to use them.
    Over all the game is great, the gameplay is the best of any FPS to date but the main reason for the game getting a low score is all of the small problems that are found plus the fact that this game cost the same as all the other new games but contains considerably less content, I only hope that this isn't the beginning of games costing more but containing less.
    Over all, its a great game that works well but its problems and content means that it should only be picked up at a lower price or borrowed from a friend.

    Unfortunately, it has problems.

    There is no dedicated single player campaign and some tosser decided that when you die, story related dialogue should stop. Thus, you may never even hear the entire story. Likewise, you can't choose to play one faction, so it's possible to do 50 campaign missions like I did and only experience one side of the story.
    The gameplay will hook you for a while, but like many other FPS games your interest will burn out after a few days. There is too little variation and the gameplay isn't good enough to keep you playing

    Overall, this game is slightly above average, but that's all. If a sequel can put a hammer to the right places, this could be a good game. It feels almost as if there could have been more but they were rushed. It's a shame.

    The biggest problem with the game is that it sets a precedent for what gamers are willing to pay for an online only multiplayer game. I'd even say it's multiplayer gives you less for the money then other FPS do in terms of content. So by buying this game, I felt like I was selling myself to a new future standard where multiplayer only games will be sold full price.

    and even if Titanfall does do really well.. its still a case of EA bending over gullible punters to take their fisting when you have to fork out for new game modes and maps on top of the already overpriced game that it is.

Seriously if games have souls then this one has none. There is no way this game is going to heaven. Even the game Dark Souls 2 still ironically has a soul...albeit a dark one.
    Before you judge me for judging this game, just know that I am NOT a playstation fanboy. I am just an ex hardcore gamer turned casual who loves many different games of all genres on all platforms. But there is something about Titanfall that just stinks.
    Is it the 6v6 multiplayer? Sort of. It's more the fact that you're mostly getting AI kills....and the AI are really easy to kill. It's also easy to kill other players largely due to the overpowered guns including a pistol with a built in aimbot which takes zero skill to use....skill....something this game proclaims you need to master wall running yet it's so easy it's almost effortless. So I will give the game some credit in that yes it's good some fluid movement with great map design, but it still feels like a shell of a game.
    There is so much hype to this game that it is almost hard to hate. But believe me, play for a few hours and you will start to tire of the fact that you're essentially running round killing AI and in a modern game like this I feel that is unforgivable.
    Maybe if there was some sort of Horde mode where you team up to kill nothing but bots and monsters would actually be more fun than killing each other, or at least something different to the dismal amount of game modes that are just the same variations of game modes we've seen in hundreds of fps games.
    Unreal Tournament, Tribes, Call of Duty, Halo, Battlefield....there is a reason why these FPS games stand out regardless if you like them or not. Titanfall only stands out because it has mechs running around. Battlefield and Unreal Tournament prove you don't need any single player story to have a great game you can play online with friends, but unfortunately the matchmaking system in Titanfail feels like it's been rushed as you cannot chose the map you want, you're thrown into a part of the "story"...which is another failure with the game. It was touted as being some sort of next gen experience that would merge a single player campaign with multiplayer, but it's just a mission debriefing at the start of each round, and doesn't have anything at all groundbreaking like they promised would change online gaming forever.
    They really should not have bragged about this feature because quite frankly, the story is generic and barely there so you won't even give a single **** you'll just want to start killing people, which takes so much longer than it should before a round starts.
    PC gamers have NOTHING to cheer about either since the same crappy matchmaking is ported over with no love from the console to the PC. It's just really pathetic that PC gamers could have had larger maps with more players and no bots, but it almost feels like they held back the PC version to keep in line with the console version. Why would they do this? Is it not obvious? It's to make Xbox1 players feel justified in getting the game on Xbox1 and to not make the Xbox1 look so completely inferior to a PC so early in it's life-cycle.
    Ultimately if you want to waste a few hours, there are worse games out there, and at least this is more refreshing than just another COD.
    Still, I would not recommend this game if you want a game with substance or a game you want to play all year, because if I got bored after a day I'm sure kids with short attention spans will go running back to COD pretty quickly.
    5/10 is being generous, because I'm not even going to rant on about the fact the game is unfinished as it will just highlight what is wrong with the gaming industry today. You know, the trend of releasing unfinished games and fixing them later with patches....and then DLC to make you think you're getting more content while they spend the next year actually finishing their game.

And they are getting our dollars and hard earned money. Only for me, not this time because I have a merciful friend in retail who took back my copy of Titanfall at full value. The beta, or so I thought, was to be just a taste of what was to come. A pre-cursor to an expanded deeper universe filled with imagination and adventures to be shared. Alas, the only sharing so far are kill-to-deaths stats etc., 'Upload' video clips adnauseam of clever kills, questions like "What were the story and campaign about really?", about how bad the matchmaking is (because of this issue do the competitive aspects of the game really matter if a team of level 1-6s are pited against a team of 20s and above), and the technical shortcomings. Perhaps there is no matchmaking and the process has devolved into some sort of sadistic event where everyone is just thrown into the crucible and the guy at the highest level with all the upgrades and experience is going to be the 'team' winner sending all of those lower levels who havn't even been allowed yet to upgrade scurrying for extraction. But that lower level must persevere and earn his or her right to manhood by continuing on. I gave this game a five because it comes with the yellow icon which means typically caution. Attempts to make anew and evolve I have always respected. It is to my mind a mandate for we humans to grow and improve ourselves. But there can become a dark side if not assessed, examined, and checked for abuses and hurtfulness. In this light for example, EA has GOT TO GO! The game Titanfall tries but 'falls' short. If you like(d) Unreal Tournament, which I did in its time, this game may be a good experience. It is however, a hefty pricetag for such a one dimensional game, you must be online to play it, and against always your fellow man. I heard someone refer to our culture as the 'culture of death' recently. For me this describes a continuing slide into deeper levels of banality. This game teeters on the precipace. Just running around shooting everything in sight that is moving for upgrades, stats, and bragging rights is becoming redundant and old for me personally. Interesting for a short while and then ................. Plants vs Zombies GW has also become just a shoot-em-up? These guys (more so the publishers) have found a formula that Titanfall uses which predates on human curiousity and the seeming power associated with creating and evolving a personal character in the virtual world. A distillation process that is slowley extracting any other content from the game other than the advancement of ones avatar in a context of attraction of their choosing which seems to be based on what gamers are buying. It is becoming less about content and more about big money, which people wanting and needing more of are sorely lacking (content) in my experiences. I give Titanfall a 5 because of the technical flaws, lack of content and false advertising, it has a few interesting wrinkles in gameplay (wall running etc.), online only and the resultant matchmaking, and average (especially in the character modeling) graphics. Will Respawn truely live up to their implied name or wilt under the tyranny of the publisher? And yet they may not know the difference anymore either. Just another fancy name lacking grit. And I like very much that we the 'users' get to pen reviews based on our hearts, emotions, feeling, and moral choices. Perhaps even more vital than a preset 'choice' and criteria of strategies and categaries! Remember the Pharisees. Expand

    Ignore the people who insist this isn't a COD clone. Stupid, overpowered weapons, lazy burn cards (kill streaks, pretty much), and unbalanced titans make this game an over-hyped turd.

The triple threat and souped up chaingun are incredibly overpowered. Burn cards can't be traded with friends, and are immediately cancelled upon death, if they are even worth using at all.

    There is no single player option, yet you will be charged full price for this title. The 'campaign' is played over about a dozen multiplayer maps, and the tepid story is fed in drips and drabs of cutscenes. Terribly, despite charging you for a MP only game, EA has the gall to charge 10$ for 3 maps just a few weeks after the game launched.

    There are only a handful of game modes, and nothing groundbreaking. It can take close to 15 minutes to find a match. Because it's a COD clone, it attracts the same douchebag demographic, who have delighted in learning that for some reason, titans crouch, therefore can teabag.

    Titanfall has been billed as groundbreaking, or innovative. This is false advertising. There is nothing in TF that can't be found in other games.

    TitanFall is a fun game for the most part. But as others have said it definitely lacks in the story mode department.

I have played 4 missions and I still don't know what is going on in the campaign, I just play these random team deathmatch's and try to kill the opposing team regardless of what the story mode says is going on.

    I've also heard a lot about this game being a COD killer and changing the way people play games or change the way games are made. Developers aren't listening to the community. Everyone enjoys multiplayer games. But every review I read, every game I play in this generation always lacks some form of local co-op.

    If you want to play a game on Xbox One with your friend on the same console and use your own gamer tags, it's not as simple as the other player picks up a controller and we start a new game. Several games require LAN which means the second player needs their own console and game. With TitanFall being an online only game this feels more like an MMOFPS than a console FPS game.

    Games such as COD: Ghosts offer much more capabilities in the area of customization than TitanFall does. Customizing doesn't seem like a very important trait for a game to have but I do believe that if the developer is going to put any effort into it then they need to go all the way. By not having the ability to really change the look of my character I'm left with trying to find the loadout that has the look I want before I worry about what weapons I'm taking to the battlefield which is a little ridiculous.

    Is this game a system seller? Absolutely not! Like I said before it is a fun game. But multiplayer games eventually aren't all that fun anymore. Player's generally don't communicate with one another, you play with that one guy that has found a way to hack the game and kills everyone without dying themselves, connection issues creep in and you'll fall through a wall or find yourself standing in the open just in time to get killed.

    Developing a game strictly for online play in a console environment is a bold move and I don't feel as if the developers pulled it off to the expectations of the gaming community. TitanFall is currently being released for download with the Xbox One, so is it a system seller? Why should it be when it's being offered for free? I bought my Xbox One recently at the same price it released with and it came with TitanFall.
    Would I pay $60 for it? Absolutely not! Multiplayer games lose their flare very quick and this game will be no different. It's COD with some Prince of Persia thrown in with all the wall running and climbing. These are neat features, but as I continue to play I notice that I'm not using these features very much and when I do I end up dead.

    Honestly, if I had paid for this game I would probably be writing a terrible review as this game is not the game changer everyone is making it out to be. People give the game high praise for being able to use a Titan but there have been a few games to try this feature. Players can get in mechs and also walk around outside of them.

    One question I do have is in the training we are shown that we can hack into some computer system to open a door and our Titans will follow us. Where else in the game are we ever hacking into a door? Half the maps contain buildings that are all halfway destroyed and all doors are open. I did read we could hack a sentry but I'm failing to see the point in that currently. It seems the developers put a lot of effort into a few meaningless features.

    Now to talk about the AI of the enemy. People have said the AI is clumsy, it's just cannon fodder, etc. You're all correct. But doesn't it feel nice to be running along side 4 or 5 soldiers into the heat of combat fighting several other AI soldiers? I enjoyed it. I also cleared out a room of about 6 AI enemies once and while they may be relatively slow it still felt good to know that I did that on my own.

    A bug I've noticed, during my 2 hours of game play, is the tracking system for how many kills you've got, deaths, and even accuracy appears to be off at times. I unlocked a sniper and shot 4 times, killed 3 enemies. When I looked at the weapon stats I had 4 shots (which is correct), 0 kills (incorrect), and a 50% accuracy (incorrect). A match ended one time where I joined in on the last minute of play and I killed 4 enemies then died. The end report showed I had no kills and no deaths. Yet my weapon achievements reflected that I did kill those 4 soldiers.

    In conclusion. If you don't have an Xbox One yet and are thinking about buying one for this game, make sure it comes as the free download. This game is strictly online play and greatly lacks cinematics and any form of a good story line. This game could be and should be classified as an MMOFPS.

    Terrible A.I., they are basically just there to make up for the game not being able to handle running more than 12 user controlled players.
    The graphics/ performance of this game definitely don't make up for the lackluster game play of Titanfall either... 792p with only 12 players and constant screen tearing as well as framerate dips that hang around 20-30fps whenever there are more than 3 players on screen.... come on, that's just embarrassing.
    Sadly most of the content that is missing from the original release will surely be released in the form of DLC that we have to pay extra for.
    5/10 only because this game has some potential if they add in some more content. (free of charge)

    Played the open beta and loved it. Unfortunately, the frame rate dropping in Last Titan Standing still exists for the Xbox One. As a flagship title it's rather annoying when fights get intense.

This saddens me because this was one of the things I was hyped up about the most. Another thing that bugs me is the COD esque gunplay, which has no recoil, and requires little skill. This is a noob friendly game, so if you are a competitive gamer looking for challenging and realistic gunplay, this is not the game for you. However, I do enjoy the verticality element brought to the game due to the pilot's movement. You never get stuck on anything, unlike BF4, and overall movement in the game is very fluid. Expand

I wish I could have played it more, but the servers were rubbish almost all day. I thought that is what we paid MS for with XBox Live Gold, at least that is what everyone says. "Sure you pay for it, but it is so much better than PSN and never crashes"

Generally the game looks good, but there are some textures that look bad. The burn cards are nice, but the weapons amps are too OP. And this would be fine if the cards weren't so plentiful.

    Unfortunately this game disappoints on many levels. I bought the Day One Edition with the hope that down the line I would be playing Titanfall, a game massively hyped and it looked great.

    The first time you start playing this you will be like OMFG herp a derp this is incredible these people complaining are NUTS. However, from a person who plays games competitively I cannot express how stale, and disappointing it gets and how fast.

    First off, the AI they put into games is pathetic and will frustratingly get you killed more often than not (there NEEDS to be an easier way to distinquish between the AI and real players). You end up seeing AI FAR FAR more than actual players (a seriously high score is like 15 kills, normally most players only get like 5 or 6). What Respawn DESPERATELY needs to do is make the matches 12v12 and cap the Titans available at one time to 6 each side. I would literally make a world of a difference.

    Secondly the campaign is LAUGHABLE. Like seriously, its awful, and I don't even care for FPS storylines and the attempt was pathetic.

    Third: the playlists are sooo tiny. Now normally I can get my kicks playing slayer and deathmatch but since the AI in this game really ruins slayer (like seriously, its awful) with massive maps and sooo few players, that when you go to check out the other playlists there isn't anything else to play.

    Now don't get me wrong, the initial impact that this game has is incredible (goose bumps anyone?) but it just gets sooo old sooo fast. The map movement is a genre changing gameplay element and makes every map so fun to run through and the Titans are fun to play in. The longevity of the game and the meta within the game is just soo poor right now.

    All-in-all while I was initially blown away by it (and it is still CLEARLY the best FPS on Xbox One) it doesn't have that "IT" factor that will keep you coming back time and time again (like Halo 3 or MW2 did). Deeply disappointed with it but if they could patch it up and fix their playlists it could be incredible.

    Titanfall is a good looking game, visuals are nice and map are varied in design. Combat is good, movement system works well and the titans are an interesting feature, albeit do feel like a bit of a gimmick.

    Where Titanfall falls short for me is, it's a fairly unsophisticated game. Whilst you unlock new weapons and abilities, these are few and far between and really do not impact the game dramatically. The developers have decided how they want you to play the game, which is a fast paced arcade FPS. Whilst fans of that format will be delighted, for people like me who like the freedom to choose my playstyle (not camping, before anyone thinks this is what I am talking about!!), it becomes stale quite quickly, as you basically fight exactly the same battle at exactly the same pace every game.

    The Titans do not have the wow factor I was expecting. Going titan vs titan is just a slugfest and laying waste to bots is no challenge whatsoever. The best moments in the titan tend to be when you are fighting against pilot, trying to pick off the fast moving players created some good moments (and vice versa when playing as a pilot vs a titan).

    The "Campaign" (their description) appears a complete afterthought. Ask anyone who has completed it about the story and most will just give you a blank look. The reasoning behind the campaign stages are paper thin and calling it a campaign just seems wrong, as there appears little overall context.

    For me, Titanfall will be the game I go to when I just want some meaningless action or a blast around with friends. It's not a game I'll play for hours on end, however I do see potential here. A few more diverse customisation options / abilities to give player the freedom to pick the fight they want would help maintain the interest.

It's not a particularly captivating game and after a couple hours of gameplay I reverted back to COD:Ghosts. Sure, it's 100% chaotic but is that really a decent selling point? It requires little to no skill, laying down a welcome mat for any noob. There's a distinct sense that with every pilot kill it could have gone either way. The AI are almost redundant, simply serving as cannon fodder. At most, AI are an irritation that mask the enemy, making for an infuriating experience. Titanfall isn't completely terrible, there are some satisfactory moments (but they are few and far between). The game is severely lacking in game modes. If you want to overlook terrible FPS and bouncing fluidly from wall to wall is enough to pacify your needs as a gamer then you've still been stiffed at that price. Titanfall is a disappointment and to those of you rating it a 10, I'm sorry but you're completely deluded. This game is nothing like COD, nor is it a future competitor. Expand

    The cons are, the game isn't a game changer nor is it close in any way. The connection can get a little iffy at times and i know for a fact it isn't my internet. Screen tearing occurs often. The game lacks depth and is really basic. There are limited guns and the unlocks aren't real rewarding. It lacks skill to play so i guess if you suck at video games this ones for you. Lastly, there is no real campaign which in my mind i honestly think a lot of people are just giving it a 10 because (it's an exclusive to xbox.. I think you know where I'm going with that) because if there isn't a campaign half the game isn't even there. I don't see how one could rate a game without a campaign over a 6. Thats just my opinion.

    Let me start this review off with saying, NO Titanfall is not worth buying an Xbox One. Yes the game play is a blast to play and it is just a breath of fresh air in the gaming world.

Yes the game play is a blast to play and it is just a breath of fresh air in the gaming world. But, this game is not worth all the hype it set up for itself. If your expecting some sort of complete revolution of the FPS genre, then you need to lower your expectations. The whole concept of mechs in general is cool, being able to call a titan in at any moment you want to be able to slaughter your enemies is cool, being able to parkour across the map instead of having to follow that linear path of corridors is cool. This game executes that all perfectly. However, this all, believe it or not, gets repetitive and, dare I say boring, after a while. That sense of empowerment and awe from calling in your titan and suddenly becoming a force to be reckoned with wears off quite fast believe it or not. This game is cod with mechs and jetpacks, bottom line. The story in this game is nonexistent, just some pretty pretty set pieces and the cliche "We gotta fight for our freedom from the big bad govt" is executed with some pretty cringe worthy dialogue. There is not alot of guns in this game, so do not come into this game thinking it has the gun arsenal of COD or BF, it has, at the most, 10 main weapons, 3 side weapons, 5 or 6 titan weapons, and titan missiles that are all the same, just launched differently. The choice of weapons in this game is obvious for both pilots and titans, and it makes the the entire idea of having those spare weapons feel wasteful and almost like a joke. Why pick that terrible missile launcher when you can pick the machine gun that fires faster and is more accurate? Why pick the revolver for your pilot when you can pick the game's standard handgun that does a little less damage but is both more accurate AND has more ammo? The game has a prestige system that feels like a joke, forcing you to to complete challenges that would have you breaking your normal strategy to have to adopt a whole new one just to get to the next prestige. While this does sound more like a pro seeing as it does add longevity to the game and it gives it a challenge, when you actually play it and see that you have to use that dreaded bolt action sniper rifle to score 100 kills on pilots at the moment they eject from their titan, you will see my point. I plan on returning this game back to gamefly where it belongs. All in all this game gets 5.5/10 from me. Expand

    Game gets old, fast. The graphics are on par with a mid-generation 360 game and the online is not competitive. TitanFall is definitely a casual shooter and will only provide you with a few hours of online before you feel like you've had enough. There is not enough content within this game to support the price or all these 10/10 reviews.

    Read the fine print before you purchase this game. Titanfall is multiplayer only, there is no single-player campaign. Which means that in a few years, when EA decides to take down the servers, this will look like a $60 rental. COD + Brink, 3-4 hours of way overvalued fun. Rent or wait for the sequel.

Battlefield 4 on the XB1 is huge, with destructive elements. Kind of hard to like walking in a giant robot when you can't even crush a car, or punch a hole in the wall to grab a pilot running from you. I was expecting this to be the game changer, instead it was another disappointment. Still, it is kind of fun for a while. Just not this awesome game that keeps you going back for more. There is no story to make you even feel like you understand what the battle is for. I still have no idea what it was all about. I remember finishing the "Campaign". They said that some guy died or something. I don't even know what roll he played in the whole thing. The pilot/titan thing gets old hat after a while. Not GOTY. It may be fun for a week or two, but is not a genre changing game. Expand

    Waited a few weeks to write this review. This game is fun at first but gets old very, very fast. I bought an Xbox One in November knowing this game was coming but am disappointed with the overall lack of game the hype delivered. If you were lucky enough to get this game for free when buying the bundle then great but if not, rent it for the weekend and you will be just as satisfied. IWaited a few weeks to write this review.

I agree that there are Sony fans rating zero but there are just as many Microsoft fans over rating this game at 8-10 just because they finally have a game worth giving a rating.

    My Review in short. Only buy this game if you are satisfied knowing that there is only multiplayer and that you can see the whole game in a few hours. If you are multiplayer driven and content doesn't matter then this game is for you.

    Pros: Fun; Titans!; Fast-Paced Multiplayer
    Cons: Low on content; gets old quickly, inferior resolution (sorry to mention resolution but this is 2014)

    Titanfall has been the only Xbox One game with released with limited addition peripherals (Titanfall Controller, Turtle Beach Headset and Xbox One Console) and with all the hype we were expecting something of epic proportions. Needless to say Titanfall has disappointed us.

    Titanfall has been the only Xbox One game with released with limited addition peripherals (Titanfall Controller, Turtle Beach Headset and Xbox One Console) and with all the hype we were expecting something of epic proportions. Needless to say Titanfall has disappointed us.

    Designed for multiplayer alone, this game is plagued with imperfections that game developers should have anticipated. The game does not shuffle players before beginning a new match, leaving the player stranded on either the losing or winning team from the previous match. The game also does not provide players with an option for voting for the next map, making the "I've Seen It All" Achievement difficult to obtain. The map rotation is also uneven, with players repeatedly playing the same six or seven maps, making the achievement even more difficult to obtain.

    Overall the games lacks luster. During gameplay players find themselves sorting through the hoards of grunt and specter bots hoping to find pilots. The lack of killstreaks or bonuses for eliminating multiple pilots or titans makes the gameplay feel static and unrewarding. The game also lacks leader boards and features no way to compare your stats with other players.

    A few things Titanfall does well is offer a good variety of maps out of the box, 15 in total. The game also features achievements for online play. Most of the achievements are easily obtainable as you play through either the campaign or ranked match modes.

    I probably would have enjoyed the game more if it had a story mode; something to do when i want to be offline. Being multiplayer only was an issue for me, maybe not as big a deal for you guys but my issue is none of my friends have the xb1 and all went ps4 so barring a couple of people from work who don't play FPS i didn't have the friend/team element i had for the COD / Battlefield games. I probably would have played more if i had friends messaging me to play like i did on PS3 or x360. That said not sure i can blame just the game elements for not playing as much but EA chose to make this game exclusive and that effected how much i play, that said i would have purchased it for PS4 if it was multiplaform so i understand its a business decision, for that i cannot give it a higher score

    Aside from a few minor quibbles (I can jump across streets and hop over entire buildings, but a knee-high window ledge is insanely finicky to get past?) Titanfall is undoubtedly a great game which does an exceptional job of breathing new life into an increasingly-stale genre.
