2011 Shooting Games: Alien, Military, or Hybrid... What Are You Rooting For?

Firstly keep in mind games like dead space and killzone are already released...this TC is about future titles

Alien shootersthis year look great with Conduit 2, Gears of War 3, Resistance 3, and Crysis 2. Alien shooters usually stand out from military shooters because of their grandiose scifi feel, their implementing of unique technology, and their complex, many times incomprehensible storylines

On the military shooter side, we basically have Homefront, Battlefield 3, and the new Call of Duty. It may be hard to judge the COD game without details, but theres at least a fifty percent chance it will be pretty much a carbon copy of the other COD games but with new things to explode. The other two are looking to be fantastic, however.

Finally, there are theshooter hybrids, games that have guns but are also a mix of different genres. . Here we have basically Mass Effect 3, Brink, Rage, and Uncharted 3. These are some incredible titles!

So I am sure most of you will be considering titles from all three categories , but which side are you leaning towardsMORE this year????

(PS hopefully i didnt miss something huge, so if i did let me know)

No doubt the genre needs some fresh scenarios.

The Locust are not aliens.

Gears has nothing to do with aliens...

To be fair alien does not only mean outer space. I choose military in any case.

Whatever Gears is, but I don't see it as an alien shooter.

I go by game, not by sub-genre.

And in that sense, it's basically DNF, RAGE, and Gears 3 for me this year.

Fantasy Shooters FTW!!!!

Now just give me my lightning shooting peacemakers:twisted:

Battlefield 3 makes me say Military, but if it wasnt for that, I would easily say its the worst. Crysis 2 also looks great, but nothing beats BF3.

I think they should create a shooter where we get to shoot something new

Alien. Conduit 2, Gears of War 3 AND Crysis 2 -- how could I pick any other category :lol: ?

I dig sci fi and military shooters. As long as the game looks like something I'll have fun with, then that is all that really matters to me.

The only4 shooters I care about this year is Rage,Duke Nukem Forever.ME3 and Battlefield 3

So I guess hybrids/all of them :)

Hybrid.

if battle field 3 comes out,, i pick that game alone

I'm going for hybrids. If the industry is in desperate need of anything its new types of games.
