"The floodgates are well and truly opening on the release avalanche that will carry us through to the New Year. There's going to be a veritable treasure trove of gaming on offer over the next few months. We've already got BioShock and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (in the States), but it's not long until the likes of Skate, Super Paper Mario (in AU), World in Conflict and Halo 3. Then after that we slide neatly into Guitar Hero III, Rock Band (in the States - did I mention curse you?), Need for Speed ProStreet, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Pro Evolution Soccer 2008, Super Mario Galaxy, Crysis, Burnout Paradise, Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed. So many big names. So many top sellers and triple A titles.
This feature isn't about those games. It's about the games that could easily be overshadowed by the above, even though they don't deserve to be. Here are our Top 10 games to put on your radar.

TimeShift had a fairly muted launch in 2007, and while it doesn't rewrite the FPS rulebook it does offer an enjoyable campaign even now.
Never heard of this game until someone mentioned it here last year. Played it and it basically represents most games from the PS3/Xbox360 era—good graphics, amazing physics, and extremely fun gameplay (time powers rock), but barely any story, weird pacing, and at least one annoying AF level. I finished Prototype last week and the same applies, except Strike Teams. Fuck Strike Teams.
I miss when ganes used to experiment with physics and world interaction
November 19 marks 15 years since the release of the Uncharted game that started it all.
I hope they don’t make another until the end of the ps5 lifecycle…. Show us a better jungle
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
They should have included Jericho and Witcher. Also, Uncharted is a superb game but I don't think it will be overlooked and people will get it. I know it's a day one purchase for me and something tells me that deep will also get it on day one :)
My biggest problems with the list are:
1.Not including Jericho.
2.Including Hannah Montana.
And...
3.They said Uncharted is a bad name! I mean how on earth is it a bad name? ]
Uncharted is a totally cool and old-school name resembling classic adventure movies and certainly matchs the game's look and feel. An "Uncharted" beautiful and lush jungle and world waiting for players and Drake to enter.
they got most of it right, there are some great titles on that list that I probably wont pick up till next year cause there's so many other games to buy
I wont miss jean the arc that seems like an awesome rpg by the reviews, Ttabula Rasa because it sounds like mass effect only with the only difference that it is multiplayer (that and i love SCI-FI). And uncharted has been promoted up the wazoo in most sony events i wouldnt miss that title but i see the reasoning why the general public might pass them over at least for a while.
i think alot of people are going to play uncharted. thats one game thats makes me want a ps3. i think skate. should be on the list.
