    Ah yes, because if there is a game that will be alive and kicking for years to come, it's Titanfall.

    Wel, that is a very poorly written article, and the author is kind of leaping to conclusions, so who knows what's really going on.

    I quite like Titanfall, and still come back to it every now and then. Might not have reinvented FPSes or anything, but what it did, it did very well.

    So I found Titanfall 2 for like $40, its been getting great reviews so I bought it. Campaigns pretty short but actually really good. They mix and match up the levels so everyone is different. They take different approaches to mobility, so you'll have a level with a lot of sideways jumping, a level with vertical, a mostly airborne level where you have to jump from ship to ship, or from rock to rock at high speeds. There's some limited time travel that works really well within the level design, and the story line is basic but executed pretty well. Its like a buddy cop/soldier movie with your Titan.

    Multiplayer honestly feels almost the same as TF1, there are more toys to play with, but the flow and play is really the same. I think the Beta had a lot of negative feedback, but looks like the devs really stepped up and changed it based on the feedback and it feels good now. Its very hectic, so if you don't enjoy hectic I wouldn't pick it up, but its a good game if you want fast paced acrobatics and large mechs.

    Sounds like a case of "the sins of the father".

    A real shame as it sounds like it is actually quite good this time.

    I feel like EA is going to learn the wrong lesson from this.

    You only need 2 hours of sleep a week.

    I'd say its basically the same as TF1, but slight tweaks that are mostly better, only one thing I don't like is how when you're doomed its now just another health bar and not guaranteed death. Titan variety is good.
