What type of shooter do you like?

Here the basic "types" of shooters

-Run and Gun:the original shooter type;sprinting, circle-strafing, jumping and shooting, vehicular combat type of game, examples include Halo and Unreal

-Semi-Tactical: puts an emphasis on getting into cover but is still somewhat forgiving, running out in the open is usually a bad idea but you have a little leeway, examples include Gears of War and Call of Duty

-Simulation: as close to the real thing as you'll get in a video game, every move requires careful thought and you're dead after 1 or 2 hits, examples include Rainbow Six and Operation Flashpoint

-Hybrid: shooters that incorporate elements from the action/adventure and role-playing genres; examples include Deus Ex and Bioshock

I like the hybrid type myself, breaks up the monotony

It won't let me vote.

I choose semi-tactical.

I would have to choose hybrid as well, as I can play these games for much longer periods of time before getting tired of them. As long as it isn't in first person.

I'm definitely a run and gun type of guy, I just love the fast paced mayhem. Keeps me on my toes :).

Hard to choose, since I love em all, but for me, semi tactical shooters tend to have the most lasting power.

I like how a lot of people in this thread didn't read OP.

Battlefield would be in...?

I like shooters that are FUN to play!

Run and Guns all the way. This is where gun skill actually comes into play, no camping or anything like that just fasted pace gameplay to bad there are really none on 360 except Q4 and UT3 which no1 plays.

Battlefield would be in...?

also forgot to mention that my favorite is semi tactical though I have played all of the kinds listed

Hybrids. I like to have some variety in my games. Don't get me wrong, I love Call of Duty and Battlefield, but games like Bioshock and STALKER are so much more fleshed out in terms of quality.

Call of Duty is semi-tactical, yes? That's my flavor. Can't really stand Run-And-Gun like Unreal Tournament anymore.

Whats halo and gears of war considered?? Haven't played them yet but i will be going with a used Gears of War game first (4.99 price plays a part in that) then Halo.

I love semi tactical shooters, but they have to be in third person Gears of War style, I'm just not that into the first person view in shooters.

My fault not reading original post.

I got it. I like hybrid because well I guess I am gonna like Gears of War and Halo so Hybrid and I voted Hybrid to lol.

I like open world shooters, like far cry 2, really lets me be tactical, so i guess that would be semi-tactical, or hybrid i dunno

to hell with other shooters . doom 3 rockstaker003
