"Everything about Hunted feels high in quality. The graphics are already top notch, featuring detailed character models and great environments. The controls felt simple and, in a way, familiar, borrowing some ideas from other third-person games such as Gears of War; and there’s very little to complain about from what was being shown off at the booth. What stood out the most was the way in which the characters interacted with each other, and the differences between the two classes. The blend of cooperative action and fantasy setting should help it stand out amidst other games in the genre, and assure that it has our eye when it releases early in 2011. "

"When you first started playing Spec Ops: The Line , you might feel that it’s just another brainless third person shooter, and some parts are kind of boring, that’s what I thought as well, but I was really into shooter games so I finished it and I was totally impressed by its story, don’t worry not spoilers, If you want to know why this game is on the list, and you are interested in good stories, go play it and pay attention to the plot, you will agree my opinion afterwards."
The Saboteur was great, nice art style and such a good soundtrack. Hunted was cool but very flawed.
Alice the Madness Returns is still really cool for those who like the premise. The original Dead Space holds up well. Catherine has aged incredibly well. The Suda 51 games are all still great if you can dig quirkiness (Shadows of the damned, Lollipop Chainsaw, Killer is dead). There are lots more, many have had remasters already though.
Totally agree, Alice the Madness Returns was good, and Split Second mentioned in the article was not bad as well
I always felt that Saboteur was under appreciated, I really did like that game a lot. It was a real shame when Pandemic got shut down.

Forbes: At the PAX East Composer’s Panel, an interesting question was posed to composer Kevin Riepl: aside from Aliens: Colonial Marines, had he ever poured so much time and work into a soundtrack only to have the game suck or go largely unnoticed? When a game does as poorly as Aliens: Colonial Maries did, critically, it’s very rare that people then attempt to hunt down the soundtrack. Likewise, when a game releases to a mediocre or lukewarm fanfare, the soundtrack rarely sees publication.
The more co-op titles within the genre, the better. Graphics look impressive too.
inXile seems to have made an interesting game. Thanks for the review!
The game looks awesome! inXile
Definitely liking more Co-Op games nowadays. I'm getting sick and tired of the classic online FPS...
Sounds good.
