Here we are on the eve of the release of the most anticipated game of 2014. TitanFall is set to go live on Xbox Live’s Games Store and in game retail stores across the US at midnight, and in just 12 short hours (for PDT residents) we’ll all have a chance to pick up the game. Metacritic is starting to roll out the editors reviews from all across the games industry, and so far so good. At 26 critical reviews in so far, TitanFall is averaging a score of 87/100. There will probably be a small handful of reviews to come in a little later, but this is a good indication that TitanFall is living up to the hype. As Polygon’s Arthur Gies puts it for their review of TitanFall, “it’s still too early to tell if TitanFall will weave the same sea change in multiplayer shooters that Respawn has caused before (Modern Warfare/Modern Warfare 2), but the pieces are all there”.
If nothing else, TitanFall is guaranteed to take my money and my life for an undetermined amount of time.
