We are nine weeks away from Titanfall . We have never seen the Xbox 360 version of Microsoft’s flagship Xbox One shooter. We have no idea who is making that version of Respawn’s exciting multiplayer game.

“ The game most people are taking home is not the game Respawn made.

This sort of concerns me.This is an awkward situation now: It would have been a nonissue if EA or Respawn made it known in the first place. A casual, nonchalant, “Oh, it’s [This Developer].” Now it’s a topic of conversation.The mystery has me asking coworkers this week, "Isn't it weird?" Reporter friends have asked me, "Why haven’t we seen even a single frame of it on Xbox 360?" Twitter followers have pondered, "Is the studio making it so bad EA and Respawn don’t want it known?"I probably shouldn’t worry. Respawn most likely wants to keep the spotlight on itself -- understandable, since it's a new studio with a big, new franchise. Throwing another developer's name out there would also mix EA's messaging.Poking around, I learned that Respawn proper has a fair number of employees working on it for quality assurance, naturally. But nobody I've spoken with knows, or is willing to say, which developer it is. Just to be safe, I asked EA again today. It won't specify which team is on it, but reiterated to IGN, "Respawn hand-picked the development house that is working on the 360 version and are working closely with that team."I’ve speculated about a few lesser-known shooter developers may be contributing to Titanfall. Digital Extremes? Splash Damage? DICE LA? One of my very intelligent peers suggested Hidden Path could be the developer. It’s a logical choice — the team made Counter-Strike: GO, and works with Valve and Source regularly. I’d like that. Hey, maybe it's a smaller team within Respawn that the studio didn't want to belittle as the Xbox 360 B-team. And perhaps Respawn simply didn't know who it would hire for the port at the announce.I’d just like to know.Who are you hoping to see is working on Titanfall on Xbox 360?
