There's no doubt about it. Titanfall was above and beyond the best game at this year's E3. It was exhilarating, fresh and it was from those former Infinity Ward boys, Respawn, meaning they have the multiplayer pedigree. That was hands-off though, and as the media, we know full-well that games, especially multiplayer games, can look good until you actually get your hands-on them. Guess what?
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."
Sales for the original Titanfall are being discontinued.
It will be pulled from subscription services on March 1, 2022.
Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.
This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.
I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.
Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
The media seem to be in love with this game. This guy thinks it is the best launch game shown so far... by a mile. Wow.
It looks great when watching others play (your vantage point will only last for a few seconds before someone comes along to waste you), so you got to keep moving.
But Ryse is more my personal type of action. I like killing with the sword. It feels more personal.
Titanfall is really getting that excellent praise. Respawn seems to have nailed it and this might even de-throne CoD.
This game is definitely on the must have list for the Xbox One. I was thinking of jumping the gun and getting it for the 360 but forget that. I need the full experience on the One.
Xbox One day One!
This game is a must have winner. Not many people have put preorders in for Titanfall cause it releases 9-10 months from now but it will sell like crazy.
Titanfall doesn't only play great but its fun watching it being played too...Ms should do all they can to keep this exclusive
Another impressive preview for Titan fall. This game is gonna be hge.
