Hardcore Tactical Shooters Are Coming Back Into Fashion

The hardcore tactical shooters of the past appear to be once again on the rise in popularity with many mature gamers seeming to be yearning for something more intellectually challenging than your typical shooter in today’s Call of Duty dominated market. I am talking about past games series such as Rainbow Six, SWAT, Counter-Strike and SOCOM. Games that actually made you think before you decided to pull the trigger or storm a room full of bad guys.

H-Hour has some real potential, hopefully it lives up to it.

xc7x3952d ago

i will be all over this game,once funded that is.

flankhim3951d ago

I could name all the maps in socom 1/2 from the top of my head and yet played i more cod this generation and can only remember the name of 2 maps from cod! I funded $150 to get me some beta action!

TheFirstClassic3952d ago

Hope this game gets funded. Anyone who is tired of the casualization of shooters this gen should check it out. Still though, despite this one game it looks like tactical shooters aren't really making a comback. They have just been getting less and less tactical over time, but hopefully that trend will change. Playing the original rainbow six right now and loving it.

Socom II roots, it's gonna be thurrrr

booboobreh3952d ago

Cant wait for this, it NEEDS to get funded.

QUNE3952d ago

I kicked in some $ for H-Hour. This game is going to kick ass. People need to spread the word.

SuburbanHell3952d ago

Same here, I can't wait to get my hands on it for PS4.

awesomeperson3952d ago

I pledged 50 bucks for PS Warrior last night, although the SOCOM era was before I started gaming. I'm getting tired of all the bro-shooters, really want to try my hand and get good at more tactical, team reliant games.

OAK3952d ago

SOFstudios is on track to make an awesome game that is absolutely needed for next gen. It will be a welcome change from all the generic shooters out there these days. Now it just needs to be funded. Everyone get to that Kickstarter and show some support!

XabiDaChosenOne3952d ago

Socom will return to its former glory, Ill put my future PS4 on it.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them
