Ok we got

Singularity

Crysis 2

X Com

Medal Of Honor

COD Black Ops

Bulletstorm

Body COunt

Killzone 3

Halo Reach

BattleField Bad Company 2: Vietnam Expansion

Brink

Blacklight: Tango Down (PSN/XBL game)

Fallout New Vegas (Its in First Person , So hey... lol)

Aliens Colonial Marines *waiting for e3 footage*

All of these games have the potential to be AA-AAA games, and they all look like they bring something different to the table.

I am one to get games that I like on release, but after having a lot FPSs at one point, I felt it was pointless to have more than 2, so I am worried if i get most of these I might abandon one for the other, thus making it a waste of money.

What are you guys looking forward too, and what are your opinions on all these FPSs.

You forgot Reach and this is definitely a good thing. FPS is my favorite genre.

I don't tend to mind being overloaded. FPS may be of the same genre, but it's not the gameplay that interests me most. It's the stories.

No one ever cared that it's been the most popular genre for years so I guess it's a good thing.

If you include TPS that list would probably double.

Out of those, I'm buying Bulletstorm and Medal of Honor. And Reach, but it's Halo so you won't include it.

Out of those I'll only get Hedal of Honor, Crysis 2, and Killzone 3. That should be enough FPS to last me a long time

We've been going on FPS burnout for a good three years now - no sense for companies to stop any time soon. (do people really still play so many of them that it's financially viable to make this many?)

Too many games of pretty much the best genre (with RPG's) is never 'too much'.

stories for fps really? i tend to look at gameplay first then the story. My ideal fps would have No AUTO AIM Customizeable Weapons/ avatars kinda like Rainbox 6 Vegas 2 destructible environments and lots of blood lol

I've assumed the whole genre would crash back down to a more sensible size for a couple years now. But from the look of the current and upcoming releases (not to mention the sales charts) it would appear that those tired of FPSes are in the minority.

I've bought more shooters this gen than ever before, and while I've found most to be enjoyable enough - and a couple to be really good - my collection won't likely get another FPS until new hardware hits the market.

When the thing is good there cannot bee "too much" of it.

Out of the list, I am most hyped for Killzone 3 by far, also waiting to see if Valve has something up it's sleeve.

All my money's going towards a good DX11 card for Crysis 2. I don't just want to be thoroughly impressed. I want my mind blown out of my head and splattered all over the keyboad. :twisted:

yea Killzone 3 , looks insane, and lots of gameplay enhancements for an already great game, is never a bad thing. just hope they mock up the aim acceleration just a bit so people stop complaining haha

Maps vary in size. Some are smaller than Crysis' and some are roughly the same size (there's also the added bonus of verticality).

It looks like it's a bit overboard, but enough of em play different enough. Singularity, Bulletstorm, Brink, and Rage have their own thing going for them. Halo Reach, Crysis 2, and Medal of Honor are different enough to appeal to different tastes among genre fans. Plus New Vegas is more RPG given the Obsidian track record than a FPS. I think they are different enough to work, but I would prefer some of the other genres getting this much love.

Crysis 2, Bad Company 2: Vietnam expansion, and Fallout New Vegas is what I'm most interested in. Medal of Honor possibly, since DICE is working on the multiplayer.

I'm looking forward to any FPS that is a new IP. Seven out of thirteen of those games are just new editions to a franchise. I don't want to start feeling about FPS the same way I feel about sports games.

Yes, god forbid someone enjoy a thrilling adventure. Just because shooters aren't pinnacle of story telling doesn't mean they don't have enjoyable stories.

Too many to choose, but a lot of them don't interest me, I'll probably only get Crysis 2, MOH, and Reach. Possibly Blacklight Tango Down for XBLA too.

While KZ3 and Crysis 2 are definite (Reach as well if I get a 360), Im keeping an eye on Brink, Rage and Bulletstorm.
