Titanfall 2 review

With the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, retailers are rolling out more video game deals for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One to clear their inventory. If you’re in no rush to upgrade to the next-generation consoles, you should take advantage of these offers to play games that you missed when they were first released. Amazon, one of the most reliable sources for discounted video games, will help Xbox One owners further build their library with a $27 price drop for the digital download of futuristic first-person shooter Titanfall 2, lowering its price to $3 from its original price of $30.

Titanfall 2, developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts, is the follow-up to 2014’s Titanfall. Released in 2016, the sequel kept the gameplay of Pilots and their Titans — massive robots with powerful abilities. Titanfall 2 introduces a story-driven single-player campaign, one of the glaring omissions in Titanfall, that’s focused on the adventures of a Pilot named Jack Cooper who forms a bond with his Titan, BT-7274.

Multiplayer matches, however, remain the focus of Titanfall 2. The loadout of Pilots revolves around main skills such as a personal cloak and a grappling hook, while Titans pack different weapons and abilities that give them different personalities and strategies for winning. There are different modes for multiplayer games, including Capture the Flag, Last Titan Standing, and Pilots vs. Pilots.

Apex Legends, one of the most popular team-based Battle Royale games, is based on the Titanfall universe, so if you’d like to know more about the lore behind it, you should check out Titanfall 2. There are rumors that characters from the Titanfall series will find their way into Apex Legends, so it might be wise to get to know them if the reports are true.

If you haven’t played Titanfall 2 yet, you’re missing out on one of the best first-person shooters that’s available on the Xbox One. There’s no reason not to get the digital download of the game as Amazon’s practically giving it away with a $27 discount, bringing its price down to just $3 from its original price of $30. There’s no telling how long the deal will last, so if you’re already looking forward to the fun you’ll have from the robot battles in Titanfall 2, you should click that Buy Now button as soon as you can.

The best soundbar of 2024 is $902 off at Amazon today
2023 Samsung HW-Q990C.

If you're in the market for an excellent soundbar, then you don't have to look further than the SAMSUNG HW-Q990C. Not only did it top our list for best soundbars with subwoofers, but it also tops our list for best soundbars overall, so whichever way you look at it, you're getting an incredible experience. Of course, being one of the best soundbars you can get comes with a significant price tag, which is why we're happy to see this truly massive $902 discount that brings it down to just $998 on Amazon.

Why you should buy the SAMSUNG HW-Q990C
When we reviewed it, we felt like the Samsung HW-Q990C ticked all the boxes, especially since it basically functions as a DTS:X and Atmos solution right out of the box without having to have complicated setups or any additional gear. The soundbar itself even has four up-firing channels to give you an entirely immersive experience and true 11.1.4 channel surround sound, or at least as close to it as you can get with the sound design you'll find in most films and shows.

AirPods Pro 2 haven’t gone back to full price since Prime Day

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe are originally priced at $249, but they've been available with a discount from Amazon since Prime Day in July. They're on sale right now at $190, which isn't as cheap as from the AirPods deals of the shopping event when they were going for $169, but the $59 discount is still a pretty nice score for these premium wireless earbuds. However, the longer this trend goes on, the higher the chance that the streak ends and they go back to their regular price. If you want to take advantage of the savings, we highly recommend pushing through with your purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe
The lowered price of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe likely remains because of the launch of the Apple AirPods 4 with ANC, which brought active noise cancellation to the entry-level AirPods. The feature was previously only available in the AirPods Pro line. However, because the Apple AirPods Pro 2 come with silicone eartips, they do a superior job at preventing you from hearing unwanted noise. Both models of wireless earbuds offer USB-C charging, but the Apple AirPods Pro 2 feature a force sensor that translates swipes into volume adjustments, and overall better sound quality for listening to music and taking calls.
