Wrong.
I didn't mean of all time. Just of the ones currently played. Also, please name me the PC FPS games that have a competitive scene aside from CS. The PC comp scene is DOMINATED by games like DoTA, LoL, and SC2.

CS and all of its derivatives still are competitively played. TF2, Battlefield and COD is as well.

5 of the top 10 "most played" games on Steam are FPS games, and that doesn't take into account the Battlefields since they aren't available there.

I admitted CS had a comp scene so those numbers mean nothing to me. The comp scene for COD on the Xbox and PC aren't even in the same galaxy. Games like battlefield aren't either. Also, please tell me you didn't include DayZ as an FPS.

It's only groundbreaking because you're comparing it to BF/COD/Halo.

To PC gamers, it's just a rehash of older games. I'm not knocking console gamers per se, it just seems like this game is unnecessarily getting credit for being innovative.
This.

Not saying BF is the best ever etc, but really, substitute a tank for a titan and the strategy is the same. the game isn't ground breaking or impressive, its just different. There are still shotguns and knife attacks from behind in Titanfall. After a few days of playing, it will look just like every other FPS. and its only 6v6 with bots correct? how is that impressive? not saying it has to be 32 or 64, but 12?

You obviously have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. Even attempting to debate with you would more than likely make my head explode.

you sure? wasn't BF started on the PC? I am sure their recent console success hasn't taken away all of the PC players.

Holy fucking shit. Once again, I said the game was very fun. Never said it was the first of its kind or the best game ever. Am I typing in Chinese? How are you not understanding this?

I'm playing the latest Rayman game and it is becoming one of my favorite platformer games of all time, up there with the old Super Mario World and Super Mario 3. It's not groundbreaking, it's just another platformer done very well.

Titanfall is just another FPS with some extra elements when compared to BF and COD. Based on the beta, it was done very well and is very fun. I've probably played every FPS since Goldeneye, and Titanfall is 'impressive'.

If you only buy/play new 'groundbreaking' games, you'll probably not be playing anything at all.
Glad to hear what you said about the new Rayman. After spending the holidays binging on newish and oldish Nintendo stuff (3DS, Wii), I got re-hooked on Mario games and want to expand my library of mascot platformers. And I'd noticed the Rayman games tended to all get good ratings, but since I've never played any of them before, I wasn't sure what to expect.

To play Titanfall yes. To play a game that isn't multiplayer only no. It was that way when the One was first announced but they changed it.
