Top Ten: Brilliant shooters you may have missed this generation

It’s that time of year again, when publishers put a massive strain on our already depleted wallets. The period between September and December has always been a prime time for massive blockbuster releases. The annual Call of Duty is usually pitted against the next instalment in the Battlefield or Medal of Honor series. The latest instalment of FIFA is set free into the wild and companies choose this time of year to release new hardware updates and sequels to some of the biggest games available.

Is it just me or a lot of the games on the list are actually pretty mediocre? (Seems like author just picked top releases and put them on a list, well thank you very much for that, I heard a lot of about them all when they were released. Other then resistance games, which are actually pretty good).

Any COD fan will love the game Haze.

Actually, Haze felt like it was trying to compete with Halo to me. It kind of collapsed under it's own hype on launch, IIRC.

[Cam977]

I'm joking by implying COD sucks too.

Haze was designed and hyped to be a Crysis killer. I've read developer interviews about it and how they have shove a lot of effects in that little quest of theirs.

From the big words that they kept throwing around, I was actually worried that might actually be a real Crysis killer that doesn't require a high end PC to run.

Then it came out and the reviews flooded in. I hit myself for worrying so much.

I remember playing Haze for the first time.. I'll never forget it, it was so bad

[chasegarcia]

Haze was not that bad. The hype killed it.

[Gridloc]

Resistance 3 is this generations most underrated and underplayed game.

[farhsa2008]

If you want a game with a fantastic single player then look no further than resistance 3

[fredrikpedersen]

Guys. Singularity. Play it-

[beerkeg]

Yeah it was a surprisingly good game. I'd certainly recommend it, it had an interesting story and was similar to Bioshock in many ways, which is a good thing.

[Minato-Namikaze]

Can we get a list about something other than shooters?

[Huarle]

How could you have "missed" those? You may not have played them but you are certainly aware of them.

Cryostasis on the other hand is a game you could have missed

[jagstatboy]

LOL @ Bulletstorm....terrible game.

I enjoyed Singularity and Resistance 3.
