Every Major Xbox One Exclusive - Ranked From Worst To Best

5. Titanfall

Respawn Entertainment

Despite its cross-platform sequel releasing earlier this year, the original Titanfall is still one of the best shooters you can find on the Xbox One.

There's no story or single-player to be found here, but Respawn Entertainment's first attempt at the franchise succeeded so thoroughly in creating a twitchy multiplayer experience that rivalled the likes of Call of Duty that it didn't matter.

Also, even though the game's sequel has already been released, the original shooter does enough different to still make it a valid purchase in 2017.

The sense of momentum and speed in this first attempt is arguably better than in the latest release, while a focus on more expansive maps full of bots as well as other players would appeal to FPS fans who aren't as fond of the kill-die-repeat nature of Titanfall 2.
