The biggest WTF is the general tone of the OP and the rest of the thread.

What about the OP tone you don't like? Let me guess. Its that I said don't fall for the hype, and don't believe the perfect 10/10 score when the game is lacking in many areas right? Look, many reviewers gave it 10/10 without mentioning the flaws. This is the problem, and this is what the thread is about. That is the thread main topic.

You yourself agree with most of the problems, but don't try to sugarcoat it like that. I mean you're doing exactly what those other reviewers did. lol

No I am talking about the way you make it seem as if the review and score are bad. A 7 from Angry Joe is not bad.

Also, maybe the flaws Joe found with the game, aren't flaws to other people? Or, at least, are not flaws worth detracting from the score? I mean hell you said yourself you'd give the game a 5 judging from Joe's review. Yet he gave it a 7. So apparently you can take those flaws, and he thinks they are worth 2 less points off the game than you do. So what can we learn from that?


I don't know what you're reading. I thought I was making it clear that I agree with his review score, and that you shouldn't fall for the hype, and believe the 10/10 perfect scores.  That is the shocking part about it, Its not a perfect score, or a 9.5/10. Its an honest fair 7/10.

7/10 is a good review score. I hate the gaming culture that anything below 8.5 is a terrible game.

I am the only that thinks angry joe is a hack reviewer that doesn't tell anything you cant find out just by looking at the back of the box or the instruction manual?? Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKgJzF3ZuYo
He's his jokes are lame and unfunny, he's inaccurate with information, does annoying and unnecessary hand motions(lol), and just seems to wan go work for IGN and be a corporate shill like the people there.

That video originally came out in early 2011 when Joe reviewed Magicka. His reviews have gotten much better with each passing year.

Don't Titanfall for the 10/10 hype. Don't believe it!

A very well thought out, and constructive review from Angry. I really think this one nails it because he goes in depth into what the game is doing right and what it is lacking unlike the other reviewers that just give the flaws of the game a blind eye, and a pass. (edit)

What do you think, is Titandoomed? Not even Angry can put his seal of approval on this one.

well, i mostly based my purchases on 'many' reviews and my friends thoughts about the game.

Honestly, that was a really good review. He was very fair. He gushed about how much fun the game is, then tore it a new one for all the things it lacked in comparison to other multi-player shooters. 

Also, it was hilarious watching him playing the campaign mode, especially when he got disconnected and had to do it over to get his titan.


"Exactly, I would have given it a 5/10 for that."   - i think this is what J_Allard was refering to

It is pretty simple. If you like something like CoD or something similar, the game is almost a must to own for you. If not then not.

It's like telling CoD fans that they shouldn't care so much about CoD because the Meta isnt't a 95

Reviewers also say that CoD isn't that good but what counts is what the people who look especially for that genre think and most who are interested in Titanfall because of what it is and not what it isn't.won't care about the negatives like CoD fans also don't care about the negatives. But it will never be as big as CoD, that's also almost for certain.

I will have to take your word for it then. Can you tell me how he has improved?

I don't see how anyone can give Titanfall a 10/10 with all those flaws. I was really considering Titanfall on PC but not anymore, don;t get me wrong 7/10 may discribe it as a fun game, but for 60 dollars and with those issues Angry mention, it is deal breaker for me.

At this point, I can't believe people got bought into the hype, but it happened.


Why not just give it a try and build your own opinion?

You're speaking out of context, and I don't see the point of what he is refering to. Anyone would get pissed off if they have to start the whole campaign over again. I find it odd that some reviewers still gives some problems like that a pass.
