Upcoming First-Person Shooters Newsworthy, Weird

By this time next year, "BioShock," "Halo 3" and "Call of Duty 4" might be considered totally tame.

Three new shoot-'em-up games coming out in 2008 plan to pull the trigger on unique new machinations that could rouse some "Manhunt 2"-type controversy.

Will these games explode the boundaries of this megapopular gaming genre - or just shoot blanks?

Isn't Army of Two a third-person shooter?

They are nothing more than controlled puppets.

The only game I've heard of is Army of Two, and you're right it is a 3rd person shooter. And what makes it worst is that they even acknowledge it as a 3rd person shooter in the article and still manage to add it to this list. If anything it should be Killzone 2, Warhammer, and Resistance: FOM 2 on this list (the only hyped 2008 FPS I know about).

LoL. As if they didn't skew enough information to the general public. Now they're trying to put another dent in gaming journalism.

I have to say though, it could certainly use it. Maybe the ship needs to sink so journalists can finally wake up.
