Jeff Gerstmann gave it 0/5!

This is like 8.8 all over again.

9/10

 

[jbug617]

Jeff Gerstmann didn't give it a score yet. Says there could be some frame rate problems with Last Titan Standing.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Editing everything into the OP. Site is running slow for me.

 

[The Elite]

People better not complain about reviews in progress after the Battlefield 4 issues. If outlets want to wait until after launch to see how things go, more power to them.

 

[jim2point0]

I predict 9s.

Lots of 9s.

Gamespot - 9

All according to plan...

[Terbinator]

Eurogamer reads like a 9.

 

[robovanburen]

Surprised reviews are hitting before it launches out in the wilderness being a multiplayer centric game and all.

Didn't everyone learn from Battlefield?

The reason this keeps happening is because the parties involved in early reviews both benefit. Websites get more clicks for early reviews, EA gets pre-orders/purchases from favorable reviews that don't mention launch day problems.

Here is our review (Jeux Vidéo Magazine from France) : http://www.jeuxvideomagazine.com/Tests/TEST-Titanfall

 

[PranooY]

IGN and Giantbomb --reviews are in progress..
and i dont see a score in Edge reviews.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

9s all across the boards... Nice. I hope this game is good enough to push console sales foe the Xbox One.

 

[Messofanego]

This is not a TitanFall Review (yet) - GiantBomb

OMG someone with actual sense!

Kind of hard to review an online only multiplayer game, when you're using LAN at some review event.

 

[Syringe]

9 / 10 from Gamereactor

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Question.

Being a multiplayer only game, how can these reviewers actually review this game in a true environment that the average consumer will be playing in?

 

[Opus Angelorum]

In before people claiming money hats and poor reviewers.

Metro Gamecentral 9/10

http://metro.co.uk/2014/03/10/titanfall-review-call-of-duty-with-robots-4511869/

In Short: It could do with a few more ancillary options, and a more interesting backstory, but in terms of online gameplay Titanfall is now the game to beat this gen.

Pros: Perfectly balanced gameplay, pin sharp controls, and a huge range of emergent tactics. 15 great maps and the titans themselves are excellent – as are the Pilots and their parkour skills.

Cons: Campaign multiplayer is a farcical waste of time. Plenty of maps, but the lack of game modes and customisation points to a hurried development schedule. Some minor graphical issues.

High score for them

[Liamario]

Reviews have become meaningless to me, but as long as the reviewer acknowledges the lack of a proper campaign and sub par graphics, I don't care what they score the game.

wtf is this 'review in progress' garbage on IGN?

Some decent scores there. Seems to have been received pretty well.

Drop a titan on it?

 

[Mistwalker]

There is no way this will average below 90, there is way too much money being thrown around (and I'm too cynical where game review sites are concerned) for this title.

EDIT: Thank goodness for Giant Bomb, actually waiting for the retail experience before posting their score. I'll be crazy optimistic and hope that's what IGN has chosen to do as well.

 

[PapaJustify]

lol, every review is putting extra effort in pointing out that they will look at it again after retail release.

They all learned a lesson after Sim-City-Gate.

 

[DrM]

wtf is this 'review in progress' garbage on IGN?

They experienced too much adrenaline and can't type at all

 

[PoweredBySoy]

Jeff Gerstmann's not Titanfall review

I find this approach very admirable.

 

[Coin Return]

9'S EVERYWHERE

 

[Sanic]

I'm honestly surprised so far. I really though more people would get hung up on the lack of a proper campaign.

 

[Einbroch]

Planing on reading these reviews to find out what the hell the campaign-ish thing is. I know it's not really a campaign, but it's something, at least I thought it was.

*edit* you guys are fast!

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

From Gamespot's review:

Chris Watters played Titanfall for two days straight at a review event run by EA, where he encountered server issues allegedly caused by small player population.

LOL. How does this happen?

 

[Grief.exe]

lol, every review is putting extra effort in pointing out that they will look at it again after retail release.

They all learned a lesson after Sim-City-Gate.

And Battlefield.

Basically EA.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

heart attack from playing titanfall

Its all i see

 

[Reave]

Eurogamer no-scores, too. But...

There's still room for improvement, most notably in that rather drab line-up of game modes, and in its current form it's perhaps more of a step forward for shooters than a giant leap. But that still represents the most positive momentum seen in the genre for at least five years. Quite simply, if you feel like you're in danger of falling out of love with multiplayer shooters, Titanfall is the game to win you back.

5/5 from Rev3 (Adam Sessler)

 

[DieH@rd]

wtf is this 'review in progress' garbage on IGN?

Its a multiplayer-only game. Some feel justified to wait a while before seeing if Simcity/Diablo3/BF4 debacle with servers will repeat.

 

[antitrop]

Bring on the 9s!

 

[Riky]

Scores look good, makes wait harder here in the UK.

 

[alr1ght]

lol, every review is putting extra effort in pointing out that they will look at it again after retail release.

They should all learn from Jeff Gerstmann then. No score doesn't bring in many clicks, though.

Question.

They don't. Publisher holds a review event

 

[T.O.P]

Dayum

 

[Bookoo]

This should be a fun review thread.

I'm expecting stuff mostly in the 8 range, some 9's, and some sites giving it a 5 or 6 due to lack of SP campaign.

That would be such a joke and hurt that reviewers credibility if they gave it a low score simply because it doesn't have a SP campaign.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Oh man, this is too much.

"WFT, NO SCORE FOR IGN?"

"Giantbomb isn't giving out a score yet, I like that."
