Ray Porreca of Entertainment Buddha writes: "Allow me, for one moment, to play the Devil’s advocate and discuss some of Titanfall’s more questionable features: ones that largely have flown under the radar; swept aside and understated by massive mechs and gritty gunplay. While Titanfall is undoubtedly one of this year’s biggest video game releases, it looks far from being one of this year’s most perfect video game releases."
In a simple and concise post on Twitter, head of Respawn Entertainment Vince Zampella responded to fan requests for a Titanfall x Helldivers 2 crossover two love heart emojis, praising the idea.
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
I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS 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."
Tie tie Faw!
This is a terrible article.
His argument for it failing would be that it's potential market is cut in half due to exclusivity.
Microsoft publishes better selling games than Sony ever has, with the exception of the Gran Turismo series.
Microsoft knows how to sell software.
If Titanfall is profitable, which i'm sure it will be, then yes. It's EA after all.
The author is dead wrong about the inclusion of AI bots. That was absolutely brilliant on the part of Respawn. Scrub players are now going to feel like demigods and even weak players will have no problem putting up a positive KDR in this game, which is going to make this a massive hit with the typical COD player.
Woah, I just thinking about playing devil's advocate myself since my friends have been crazy about Titanfall lately; and to be honest, I too have been impressed... mostly.
My argument would be against the fast kill gameplay flow. I would favor shielded soldiers that do not die with just a coupe of bullets. I mean it would be difficult to adjust that; but think about earning kills with skill and grace instead of just a quick gib or auto headshot.
Either way, I'm giving this game a shot, as I'm sure everyone will.
