Titanfall could be the most important game in years

Titanfall reboots the first-person shooter genre.

Since the hype here isn't nearly enough as what the game actually warrents, I believe these quotes could not be any more relevant to what Titanfall could bring to gaming. 

Last year saw the release of three of the most morbidly generic first person shooters all withing mare weeks of each others release. 

Titanfall should change all this on March 14.

...isn't even really next gen.

Sorry had to do it. :D



Titanfall is one of the many reasons to own a Xbox One. This should put the nail in the coffin for the ps4 in US



As a kinda-related note, I don't think gamers should assume this is meant for the COD bros.

Bros in particular like shooters based in reality. As in using tech that exists or at least in real life prototype phases. Mechs/aliens or sci-fi in general turn them off. Nerd stuff and what not.

So Titanfall is more appealing to the core gamer in general who isn't encumbered by the bro mentality.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

.......You are going to be quoted so much for that. Too soon buddy ;)

If there is a X1 bundle, then it would go a long way though

Games like halo appeal to both. Titanfall looks more dude/bro like than halo



Well it's a cross-gen game, but I guess it depends on what you define as next gen, graphics, resolution, frame-rate, new multi-player capabilities not found on 7th gen, etc. Maybe the gameplay is revolutionary and something that could only be done on new gen hardware?



yay 792p PS4 killer: http://www.gamrreview.com/news/91013/titanfall-beta-on-xbox-one-has-native-792p-resolution/



The first real next gen shooter ? nop



Can we wait to see the 360 version? If graphics don't matter then surely that also re-invents the shooter
