PushSquare: "I'm playing two games at the moment that very few people care about. They're not the type of games that are gracing magazine covers and website home-pages. They probably have mild targets and low budgets. They're hardly blockbusters. But they've got me completely excited. It's made me realise that, sometimes, you don't always need a blockbuster. After all, video games are supposed to be fun, and their profiles are not necessarily connected to that."
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
As the world reels from the shockwaves of the seismic news that Microsoft is acquiring the proverbial swamp of the video-game landscape, Activision Blizzard King, it only seems natural that our minds should now shift towards what the fallout will be for presumably years if not decades to come.
Another Prototype would be awesome.
As for Singularity, I don't necessarily need a sequel, I just want to see Raven be able to flex their creative muscle again; not just be relegated to assisting with CoD. A lot of the old guard is still with the company.
That's part of what I'm hoping to see come from this acquisition. Revive teams like Vicarious Visions and Ravem to actually allow them to work on their own new projects again.
I'd like to see Activision get the Transformers license again and continue the War and Fall of Cybertron games. the movie games were crap and the game that combined both movie and Fall and War of Cybertron sucked a new Prototype would also be good as well.
Re-imagining of River Raid and the original adventurer Pitfall. Oh Zork is also a great game.
very true. I related more to what the author was saying in the ps2 era. Blockbusters was more of a reason for me NOT to be excited. It was the okami's, ico's, exterminations and the likes that gave me a lot of unexpected fun. Finding hidden gems was fun. Nowadays we're told blockbusters (AAA) means fun and thats BS
Singularity is an amazing game. It's a blockbuster to me, anyhow. Far better than any of the FPS games in about the last 3 years.
because I've played all the other games too and now I'm left with this. But I'm really excited with these new games because I "need" to play new games or else I get on here and post comments =)
yeah no one liked the force unleashed i love the story to that game i play it once a month maybe lol sure its not the best game around but i find it fun.then there the big Blockbuster uncharted I LOVE IT to BITS!!! soo i would have to say I'm not really a picky gamer i just want a good story and some fun!
