By shooty I mean heavy emphasis on gunplay.

Very easy for me as 99% of the games I want this year are either fighters or hack action games. And the only shooty game Im interested in is Max Payne 3. Truth be told never played the previous 2 games but the trailers and footage Rockstar have shown regarding tech and story have really grasped my attention, that's exactly how they won be over with LA NOIRE and it seems to be working again. Rockstar man, masters of marketing.

Is Hitman a shooter? if so I'd go with that one since it could have a ton of replay value. Blood Money is one of my get back games.

Rockstar has great marketing for sure. They are good at pointing out why the game is unique and groundbreaking, so at the end u feel obligated to try it. Anyway Max Payne is top on my last as well. Then comes Bioshock infinite. After that prob Far Cry.

Also would like to add I briefly played Max Payne back in the day and the controls irritated me plus just didn't like the feel. But I can tell Max Payne 3 is something I will enjoy, story wise I may be lost but I'll just read up on the games.

Planetside 2 probably. Maybe Hitman, but we've yet to see if it's good or not.

Bioshock Infinite. I guess.

But I have a much higher level of confidence in Max Payne 3 being good.

Between BO2 and Halo 4, might have to lean towards BO2 cause of the 200+ hours I put into the first multiplayer. Just such a great game to play by myself and with friends. But luckily I don't live by this rule and I can enjoy both (and Bioshock) :)

Probably Bioshock Infinite. Max Payne 3 is a runner-up.

Max Payne 3, but luckily I don't have to only buy one. If I did though, Max Payne 3's campaign looks amazing and the online looks like a blast, plus most of my online gaming will probably come from Battlefield 3 and its expansions anyways so I could still keep busy.

Its hard to choose. The only 2 good shooters this year that are actually special, unique & worth my time our Bioshock Infinite & Far Cry 3. Every other shooter looks garbage. Im getting both but if i had to choose 1........

FarCry 3 - A free roaming shooter heavily based on exploration, supply scrounging, animal hunting, story, characters, many unqiue missions that can balance sneaking, strategy & action. Also comes with a with a wicked Map editor & solid multiplayer.

I want to say Bioshock Infinite, but I'm going to say Halo 4 because I've been playing Halo's multiplayer since 3 and haven't gone at all to cod or battlefield because I thought they all kinda sucked and didn't require any skill. I'm a bit worried that Halo 4 is turning too cod-like, which I feel is partially a bad thing, but the news about Spartan Ops is exciting. The other thing I find rather amusing is that Halo 4 is also likely to be the only FPS I buy this year, unless anything with the word "Metroid" or "Star fox" in the title comes out, then of course I'll get that too.
