Titanfall the Review.

An it has happened we finally got one of the biggest killer apps on the Xbox One. Back during E3 2013 we all got to see a game that changed the way that we looked at the Xbox One and we all thought it was hype we all thought that everything we saw and heard was going to be too good to be true. True to the contrary it wasn't hype or wishful thinking it was all fact. Titanfall is amazing everything about the game is amazing.

Lets begin with the Campaign from start to end the campaign is about 2 hours on each end you can play as the IMC or Militia. Each is full of there own stories and surprises that I will not ruin for anyone but they are there. The campaign doesn't play like a normal campaign, It is played as a set of multiplayer matches the story still plays out like any other campaign but you still play online randomly with others. An upon beating both sides you can unlock some of the other chassis that can beused in the multiplayer modes. In all honesty the Campaign Multiplayer is lacking it has great story for the first time but it has no depth. It gives you no reason to play it over and over again save for earning the 2 chassis. Not to mention that it gives you no reason at all to understand why they are fighting.

Now to the part of the game that brought out all the hype and has got us all in a stir for the game. The multiplayer, it is split between 6 different modes they are

• Attrition which is Team Deathmatch
• Last Titan Standing which is search and destroy. The game starts you off in a Titan and you have to hunt the other teams Titans and destroy them. 
• Hardpoint which is the Titanfall version of King of the Hill. 
• Capture the flag which is explanitory
• Pilot hunter which is a variation of Team Death Match where you only earn points buy killing pilots and not grunts. 
• An last but not least Variety Pack which just randomizes each game that you play.  

All the modes are fun they will give you hours upon hours of play and will keep you coming back for more my favorite mode is Last Titan Standing.  I love working with my team to totally destroy everyone.

All in all Titanfall is an amazing game it is lacking in some parts but for a game that is strictly all multiplayer it shines like a Titan that is about to go nuclear. It is a great start to show players what the Xbox One has to come.

Until Next Time Geeks.... 

PSA: From March 1st to the 31st.

All this month if you buy a 3DS or 2DS and you register it at Club Nintendo you will get a free copy of Pokemon X or Y.  As long as you register any of the following games featured in the picture above.

 After you will be treated to a prompt that will ask you to choose which copy of the game do you want. As featured in the picture above I choose Pokemon X because I already have Y sorry but I had to blot out the code lol just in-case.

Turtle Beach XO Seven Unboxing.

When the Xbox One was released on the 22nd of November everyone including myself was so disappointing that we couldn't use any of the headsets that we purchased for the 360 due to the new proprietary adapter for the Xbox One headset. 

So it has been a few months and today comes the first release of headsets for the Xbox One from Turtle Beach they are the XO Sevens and the XO Fours. We currently dont have the fours in here at EGFG but we have the Sevens 

 

 

The headset comes in standard Turtle Beach packaging that is a slip cover over another box.  As featured in the picture below the under box for the headset is all white and embossed with the Turtle Beach logo.  It is an awesome looking box.

  

When you pull the flap open you will see the headset is rested nicely in a plastic case an in the middle of it is the Xbox One headset adapter that is what makes it possible for you to use any headset on the Xbox One.

  

 The headset has a break away cable meaning that if you drop your controller there is no chance that you can have the headset be ripped off your head.

 

The headset comes with some extra accessories it comes with the mic cable, a mini usb to usb the headset cable and the boom mic which is detachable.

 

 Feature in the last picture above this is a better look at the Xbox One adapter it is what makes it possible to control game volume and chat volume with the headset. 

As I said in the title of my post this is just an unboxing stay tuned for a review of the headset this week around the time of the release of Titanfall. 

Until Next Time Geeks....
