Best XBOX 360 shooter game? (poll coming)


choose the best shooter(s) and why?



================================================== ====
================================================== ====

I really like 4 different titles...


Bioshock - overall amazing game that sets the par for the genre; everything about this game is a 10

Kayne & Lynch - very cool story line and could make a great movie; i like how controls force you to learn how to aim

Left 4 Dead - best zombie game ever; amazing concept - play as zombies hell ya

Orangebox: Team Fortress 2 - by far best online team shooter; cell shading is goofy but hey so are the characters in TF2

It could be because it is the last game I played, but Bioshock is AWESOME. Great storyline, good length of gameplay, the use of plasmids and DNA modifications is really cool, too.

I do have to say that the Halo series is up there just because it brought FPS to a higher level, the COD games are really fun, Army of 2 is good, but kinda short, Left 4 Dead is awesome, but waaaaaaaaay too short.

I have heard that Farcry 2 is good, but haven't really played it much outside of some multiplayer stuff with my friends, RE5 looks totally badass and I am sure it is.

i loved bioshock too. awesome game.

cod4 is awesome. online play is great.

never played the storyline.

cod waw i heard isnt as good as 4.

other games i havent had a chance to play. i played the demo for RE5 and i didnt like it. i like the original gameplay, i believe its called 3rd person shooter. (RE1 and 2 is my favorite of all times)

[man]

Love COD:WaW

TF2 would be a top vote too but I only play on PC

I agree with you on Bioshock...

but Left 4 Dead is not the best zombie game ever. Amazing concept? Only if by "amazing" you mean "the same thing over and over and over."

all zombies games are repetitive... now that i think about it... Zombie Typing is way cool

[JITB]

AS far as online teamwork etc.

Halo
Gears
Rainbow


as far as running around and killing..and respawning...COD4

lol. Don't get me wrong, I liked the game... but it's nothing ground breaking. Plus I hated that you can't save your progress and come back from a checkpoint.

[THATdude]

i like army of 2, fear2, and cod

Halo and COD have the best online play. Far Cry 2 has amazing single player gameplay. The AI is pretty incredible and there are so many ways you can approach various missions. It's a free roam FPS, I've been waiting for that since GTA. I wish they'd catch on a little more.

Rainbow six and left for dead, shit gets intense...

Ive always wanted to play farcry.. but i never have. Might rent it one day.

[TheProfiteer]

Farcry 2 is the worst damn free open game i have ever played. It looks good, and has good shooter mechanics, but as a game it self it fails so fucking hard.

front lines fuel of war and halo 3 ftw!

Orange Box should win because you also get Portal (probably the most fun I've had out of a 360 game) and you also get the Half Life series (one of the best stories I've played). I also voted for Bioshock (probably the best story I've played on 360), it is engrossing and has a great soundtrack, it's pretty brilliant, the only downfall being that it's FPS only, lame.
As for shooters though, I give props to Gears 2 and Halo 3 for being a ton of fun and good at what they do, they are so much fun because those are the games that everyone else has and everyone else is playing, so there is always some fun to be had. Also, when you have a giant game with tons of people playing, then you have people creating other games within the parameters of the world, like zombies and such. I'm sure the same goes for COD4 as well, I just never purchases it, I was broke when it came out and didn't want to try to catch up with all of my coworkers.
GTA IV should be on the list, just for being such a limitless sandbox of a game.

GTA.. So awesome if you treat it as a shooter game (ie. deathmatch)..

Its good, but they way i remember, you have to walk alot to actually find someone.

[ubers2k]

i honestly cannot consider re5 as a shooter. but if it is up there, how come dead space didn't make the list? i love the resident evil series, but DS dwarfs it as far as scares and gore. both games are a blast to play though.

downside to the poll is it's 360 only. killzone 2 is the best shooter i've played. period.

i have to agree.

dead space is unbelievable. i beat it, then i beat it again with the military armor, then i beat it in the impossible mode, which really isnt impossible.

[Danger Mouse]

call of duty 4

[Paul]

fuck i forgot about DEAD SPACE... dead space was way better than they lead on to be... also if you haven't seen the anime definitely check it out it leads you up to the beginning of the game

[Frög]

If the respawn is set to far.. But if its set to near, you get spawned in the middle of the action (not always a good thing)

[iEvo]

im a big call of duty fan. call of duty 6 is sopposed to be comin out this year. iv heard thats its modern warfar(COD4) 2. should be sick

[Ed]

fuck i forgot about DEAD SPACE... dead space was way better than they lead on to be... also if you haven't seen the anime definitely check it out it leads you up to the beginning of the game

i downloaded the anime and started watching it and got bored.

fuck ya - i've been planning on starting it again w/ the elite suit i got downloaded... you know they have a wii version coming out?

[Ed]

was it a free download?

i got the military suit. pretty sweet.

wii? weird. must be fun though

[Paul]

ya that was the free download... only thing is how do you start w/ it? i figured i could start w/ it last time but didn't know how.

[jonathanjone]

modern warfare 2 sounds good to me. but i just started playing waw. i dont see it being as good as modern warfare but i may be wrong. i didnt like cod4 as much as halo 3 but ive been playing cod4 way more than halo. so mine would be b/t cod4 and halo3. but halo is pretty glitchy. cod4 doesnt seem to do it as bad. if i shoot someone.. they die. halo, they turn around and start shootin back. its poo i tell ya lol

[Ed]

ya that was the free download... only thing is how do you start w/ it? i figured i could start w/ it last time but didn't know how.

what do you mean start with it? the military suit?

after you beat it, it will save anew file and it will take you to chapter 1 again, to get the military suit you have to find a store, it costs like 90k

so i have to find a store to buy the elite suit? i figured you could somehow start w/ it then just upgrade it like the other suit. i hit probably every store in the first time around, so i guess i need to play it again to try to find it.

just don't do what i did and start a NEW game and then save over the completed one. make sure that after you beat the game you go load your save file that says COMPLETED GAME and start that one. it'll take you to the first chapter again, keeping all of your weapons and leveled suit that you finished the first time around.

[junior_tm]

i love call of duty 4 this game got me so addicted to it that when i was working i would day dream about it and i kept on looking on the clock to get home and play all night long

i played army of 2 i thought it would be better but its decent

NOW CALL OF DUTY WORLD AT WAR THAT GAME IS THA BOMB nothing else just tha sh1t

[Ed]

man im a GOW2 fanatic! i love that game.

[AFSil80]

I love the storyline of GOW, but COD4 is still the best shooter as far as person-to-person combat is concerned.

u have said it all man

[AnthonyF]

I'm not a first person style shooter so I quickly got attached to gears of war. COD was difficult to learn (only played it a handful of times) I played...Timeshift but I just don't like 1st person shooting.

If i was able to get back on Live for GOW2...i'd FUK YA'LL UP!
