Titanfall won't come to Xbox 360 Games On Demand

4.5
Titanfall publisher EA has nixed potential plans to bring the robot-infested shooter to the Xbox 360 as a digital download. A new entry on EA's help site explains the decision:

"After extensive testing, we felt that [a digital release] simply did not represent the true Titanfall experience and it was decided not to release a Games on Demand version. We hope players understand this decision was all about quality and making sure you get the best Titanfall experience."

While this is disappointing news for anyone counting down the ongoing death of physical media, we will remind would-be mech pilots that the disc-based version of the game has been performing admirably in our ongoing State of Service tests. Our latest report notes minor, isolated issues in the PC version, but otherwise all of the game's servers appear to be chugging along nicely.

This is a shame as it means I don't have the opportunity to play the game unless I get a new console. It is a shame that it isn't going to be available on the marketplace as if it was, I am sure it would have generated a healthy boost in sales of the game.

Can't really see this as too much of an issue to be fair. Just go and buy it if you want it!!

Good, This game would have been super laggy... lots of other games shouldn't even be on demand cause of the lag... Skyrim is one of them.. wow worst mistake I ever made

Who cares? It's not like it's cheaper on demand. I don't get the big deal.

This would've been pretty nice, kinda annoying.

Well this isn't disappointing at all, i buy games anyways so.. It's cool

PrimPosted:

To be honest I don't see why having it on games on demand will change the quality.

I don't really care I buy all of my games instead of downloading them
