Titanfall was obviously rushed (probably by EA) no leaderboards, no private matches, few game modes, sometimes (although uncommon) frame rate drops - I got a really bad one 2 days ago in a 5 way Titan battle (5 or 4) but the frame rate drop lasted for like 15 seconds and was horrible Lol

Awesome game still ;) they should of just gave them atleast another 2 months, would of gave PVZ a little time to sell more too and given more polishing for Titanfall, we probably even would of gotten splitscreen =( Loll

I don't get why they didn't just delay the game? I mean they delayed the 360 version, might as well do the same for PC and Xbox One. If something as simple as leaderboards isn't there day 1 for an FPS game, then something's wrong.

It's obvious it was released early because the moment they released it, they started talking about what they will add. but as long as they can still add what they wanted seamlessly with updates, then releasing early wasn't really that big of a problem.

The Titanfall bundle is still at #8 on Amazon's charts despite being available for $50 less at Walmart, should be selling really well at Walmart, I think Best Buy might still have it for $450 as well. I can't wait to see the hardware numbers the next few weeks, X1 should be doing much better.

Very excited for March NPD and the next MS shipments. 3 weeks and 4 weeks respectively.

This could be a good question for your next pole Jay!


I added something similar.  For me i picked Rock Climbing since ive been hearing great things from it.  Wake Racing otherwise.  Im hoping KSR has online multiplayer btw.  Also i wouldnt mind seeing some DLC adding other sports like Basketball, American Football, and Golf especially.

The assault riffle is the only weapon worth using and as soon as you get a silencer, equip it. with so much bots around everyone gets excited to see a pilot light up on the radar.

 


I also use the strider similar to you.  I have a 2.4 K/D atm that is rising steadily though.

As for weapons the Assault Rifle is good but I find that my best weapon s the longbow.  The Shotgun and CAR SMG is really good as well.

Former Rare artist, Wil Overton, has posted some concept art he did for Rare’s cancelled Xbox 360 Banjo kart racing game via his online portfolio. Check it out:

As can be surmised by the imagery, the game was likely to be more than just a racer featuring Banjo-Kazooie characters, but more of a conglomeration of Rare characters from a variety of Rare franchises. In the artwork, you can see Vela (Jet Force Gemini), Banjo (Banjo-Kazooie), Joanna Dark (Perfect Dark), Sabrewulf (Killer Instinct), Sabreman (Sabrewulf), and a Battletoad (Battletoads). Notice too the different types of vehicles and circuits (Jiggy Pro) the races would have taken place on. It’s very unfortunate this was cancelled as it could have been a big success for Microsoft and Rare, just as the Sonic All-Stars Racing has been for Sega. Once can only hope that something similar to this will crop back up in the future!

aww man I would've loved this!

I know right :/  Ive always wanted a sequel to Diddy Kong Racing and this is as close as it would have gotten. Hoping to see it make a return one day
