Gamescom 2013 is happening right now! One thing that I saw this morning that really stood out was the gameplay demo of Titanfall. Titanfall is a First-Person Action Shooter that allows players to take control of large mechs, jump around great heights, and utilize an array of futuristic weaponry. As much as I want to keep taking a break from FPS games, I keep getting pulled back in when something like Titanfall shows up and goes "this could be even better than the FPS before it!" I've played a LOT of different FPS games, yet there always seems to be another that comes out that interests me despite the core game not changing too much. Titanfall is the product of those who left Infinity Ward because of the dispute between the developer and Activision and had formed Infinity Ward because they had left Electronic Arts because of how much the team was limited to their creative development when making Medal of Honor and had gone back under Electronic Arts as Respawn Entertainment. To put it simply, the developers continue to innovate and change the First-Person Shooter genre no matter what studio name they use or which publisher they work under.
From the video, not only is the graphics impressive, but the mobility and movement that the player is capable of is what really stood out for me. The player must take into account height, jumping, and falling rather than running on ground level. The high mobility and jump height boasts the idea of a much more faster-paced shooter rather than a tactical one which has been the forte of the genre due to the success of franchises such as Call of Duty and Battlefield. Call of Duty got big under the development of Vince Zampella and Jason West, will Titanfall be the next big franchise for them? Currently, the game is announced to launch on PC, Xbox 360, and Xbox One in the Spring of 2014.
