Alright SW, which is your favourite out of these exclusive console shooters and why?

(Btw, please don't bother telling me that Uncharted 2 is an Action/Adventure game. Whatever, it's in the poll)

Only played the 360 games since i don't have a PS3...

But I say I would enjoy U2 since the developer is amazing :)

Uncharted 2. Fun story, interesting gameplay and funny dialogue.

My pick's Killzone 2, but that pretty much wins by default since I've never played Gears 2 or Uncharted 2. I've played Halo 3 split screen competitive multiplayer for like five minutes so that's obviously not nearly enough to warrant an opinion. Resistance 2 I own... ugh. KZ2 is a good shooter, though.

Exactly, that's what I've seen in all the gameplay vids, plenty of shooting, with Gears mechanics. I've seen Nathan Drake take out small armies with an AK-47, but nooooo. The elitists have to add their "2 cents."

None of the above, Metroid Prime 3. And the best shooters this gen (though not exclusive) are included in the Orange Box.

So is GTA4 a shooter?

"Shooter games are a subgenre of action game, which often test the player's speed and reaction time. Because shooters make up the majority of action games, it is a fairly wide subgenre. It includes many subgenres that have the commonality of focusing "on the actions of the avatar using some sort of weapon. Usually this weapon is a gun, or some other long-range weapon". A common resource found in many shooter games is ammunition."

Yes.

IMO, it could easily be considered a sandbox TPS.

yes. but its not as black and white as that. Its a sandbox/TPS a hybrid of two genres. just like how we have Action Adventure or Action RPG this is common sense

I can't believe people prefer Killzone 2 to Uncharted 2. Wowzer.

Scratch that, I can't believe people prefer Killzone 2 to Resistance 2.

I guess I'm not big on KZ2.

Yeah, after reading some of the comments in the thread I figured that would be the reason why a few people would vote for Killzone 2.

Uncharted 2. Great gameplay, good story, great characters, well written and funny dialogue and the graphics are the best on the consoles. It was my GOTY.

Uncharted 2 was my favorite game on the poll, but I didn't vote for it, it isn't a shooter. BTW, that divided the vote, half the people who voted for U2 would've voted for KZ2 and it would've been winning right now instead of Halo 3. However, my favorite shooter is Resistance 2.

Uncharted 2 isn't a shooter exactly. But whatever I voted for that. But if we were talking about games that are strictly shooters, I loved the first resistance witha passion

I'd say Killzone 2, grudgingly. Shooters don't really do much for me anymore.

Is Infamous a shooter? Because Uncharted plays like Infamous.

Plays like a platformer (one stick to move/turn, one for camera) until you hold down a button which brings you into shooter mode (one stick to move/strafe, one for turning).

Out of those, Halo 3 easily
