  Campaign issues aside, Titanfall's expert mix of light-footed pilots and massive Titans brings something entirely new to the competitive arena. These systems mesh perfectly with existing shooter tropes, and the combination of new and old has reinvigorated my interest in a type of game I had all but written off. If getting back into shooters after Halo 3 was challenging for me, I can only imagine how hard it will be to find a game that can live up to the new standards set by Titanfall.

  It’s a thoroughly successful evolution of the twitch shooter, broadening its scope both upwards and outwards as well as expanding its toolset. The genre’s focus on fast, responsive movement reaches bold new heights, too, letting you chain wall runs and double jumps into the sky before thundering back down in the cockpit of a giant robot. Titanfall might not be Xbox One’s killer app, or Azure’s proof of concept, then, but it’s a long-overdue adrenaline shot for a genre that seemed in danger of flatlining.

  If you choose to invest in Titanfall, make it your mission to track down the stories that emerge when all of its systems come together and sing. They are why this genre became so popular in the first place, and Titanfall is a fine way to rediscover that attraction. Just endeavour to get your money's worth while the honeymoon lasts.

  Titanfall was heralded as “the game” for Xbox One, which is a little unfair. It is a very niche audience that will dedicate themselves to the title. Also considering it is (eventually) coming to 360 and already out on PC, it is hardly exclusive. Still it takes a lot to bring me back into the online shooter fold, and Titanfall has definitely dragged me back in.

  Titanfall still feels like it’s chasing a Call of Duty experience — which isn’t to say that CoD is the better game, but that this limits Titanfall’s potential. Respawn’s multiplayer shooter does many things right. It’s fun and fast, and intense even in its repetitive experiences, like ejecting from a Titan or sprinting for a dropship after losing a battle. Those things count heavily in its favor, as does the ability to play in very different ways as situations evolve in each game.

  Respawn’s first game is a bold push to create that new must-have multiplayer game, and in so many ways they succeed. It fails to deliver on the potential of an online campaign, almost falling into the same trap that befalls their single player-laden competitors, and doesn’t really attempt to create new and interesting game modes.

  Titanfall is a flawed game that winds up being greater than the sum of its parts. ...Titanfall offers up a lot of variety and the execution feels fresh and exciting. ...Titanfall has some noteworthy shortcomings, and yet the accessible gameplay makes it an easy recommendation not only for FPS veterans, but those who normally avoid the genre as well. As a result, Titanfall is the best gateway FPS ever created and is a must-buy for anybody with an Xbox One.

  Respawn Entertainment has managed to take new gameplay ideas and mix it in with what we have already come to expect from first person shooters making Titanfall a game that definitely stands its own. Sure, there are some oversights that I think could have made it an even better game, but as a whole it is very, very good game.

  Though Titanfall doesn’t add much new to the first-person shooter formula, its unique features do help it stand out quite a bit. ...It’s definitely one of the most entertaining multiplayer shooters we’ve ever played, but it’s still too rough around the edges to truly challenge any of the incumbents right now. Still, Titanfall stands on the cusp of this new generation, ready to blaze its own path to greatness. Titanfall is not a perfect game, but it sure is fun. Sometimes, that’s all you need.

  If you can turn your brain off and enjoy the carnage with like-minded friends, you might have the best experience of 2014 in your hands today. If you want something more from your video games or if you want to be transported to another dimension to learn the true role of an intergalactic soldier, you should probably hit the books. If Titanfall is representative of man’s aspirations, we’re going nowhere fast.
