It's repetitive, generic, not enough content for its price tag, the weapons are unbalanced, and it lacks basic features any FPS game should have.

I didn't say jack shit about the campaign.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman

Game developers seem to have forgotten this but completely, though.

Why would I ever want split-screen? I don't care about what my friends can see, and I definitely don't want to sacrifice screen real estate for it. I vastly prefer having a friend bring over a laptop so that we can have a LAN game.


IMO it adds intensity and camradere when you're all looking at the same thing. Besides, screenwatching ;)

I'll never get to shouting with excitement on a laptop, but that's just me X)

PC. Can't afford Xbox's atrocious price nor do I want a PS4. There's no point. It won't play Last of Us so I'll just grab a PS3 if I do pick up a console. Or a new xbox when the one I have dies.

Because titans are awesome? I just wish they had given the game a proper story with lots of lore like Halo. Titanfall is full of awesome stuff, but it is really disappointing that there is no lore to back it up.

Exact same, Halo 2 and Halo 3 spilt screen is the best gaming experiences I've had, bar perhaps Arma 2 with ACE/ACRE mods - but in a different way. Split screen is certainly the most exciting time I've had gaming, ever X)

PS4, definitely. I do have a PC, and do plenty of gaming on that, but prefer consoles for certain games- namely Assassin's Creed and Gran Turismo :P

They're really not. There's nothing unique about Titanfall's mechs. They're clunky and barely customizable. Hawken's mechs are far better.

Does Hawken have infantry combat with parkour alongside mech combat?

Titans are just a side dish to the main of Mirror's Edge + Run and gun IMO :P

Plus jumping on titans. That shit is fun.

Titan vs Titan? Ehh... there are better mech games.

Why would I ever want to mix the two? If I want to play an FPS with parkour, I can go play Brink or Mirror's Edge. Those games do parkour better than Titanfall, and Hawken does mechs better than Titanfall. The only thing Titanfall does is combine them, and I don't see the point in sacrificing quality for an unbalanced combination of mechanics.

How is it unbalanced? The game has been praised for its balanced mechanics. Also Brink is awful.

I actually had more fun with CoD. I played it for a week before I got bored. Titanfall didn't even keep me entertained for three days.
