September 1, so2 days to go and school starts for me. I will have 10 classes/courses, but the teaching system is different then in U.S. so don't just go :shock: :P. I will have 3 languages (Bosnian, German and English), Math, Economic Mathematic, Psihical Education (glad to have it, I can release my stress from school on it :P), marketing, Economy-Bussines, Information Technology (releated to Economy-Bussines) and the next name is only one subject and it's called Civic Education, democracy and civil rights. Now to let school behind. Like I said I made my brackets, but I would loved if GameSpot allowed us to show our brackets to our friends. My fav heroes from the list is are Cloud Strife and Kratos but my final four are Mario, Master Chief, Mario and Link, with Mario and Snake in finals and Snake winning (even though I'm not a big of Snake but I don't want Mario to win :P). And I added one more emblem to my collection for voting in the qualification of ATG :) Now let start with #7 of genre countdown:
________________________________
#7: Shooters
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 it's own genre. 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.
Killing people is fun, but killing zombies is more fun.
For many shooters are by far there favorite genre and until the wide spreading of the 5th generation of conoles, only people who played shooters and RPG were called gamers. I myself started to play shooter when I was 12 years :lol:. Even then I played CoD, Counter-Strike, Battlefield and those games at the begin. I never was big fan of shooters but the amount of shooter games that are coming out is imense and if you don't play them you are probably missing most of the best games of a pariculary year. Without further ado let's see which are my favorite franchises out there from this genre (the one I still need to play is Unreal Tournament) :
1) Crysis
2) Bioshock
3) Half-Life
4) Medal of Honor
5) Doom
6) Far Cry
7) Quake
8 ) Battlefield
9) Call of Duty

That was number 7. The next blog will probably be my monthly blog, and after that I'm planning to make a blog of my most anticipated games of this fall ;). Ramadan, a month of fasting and for Muslims the most holy month of the year, started 9 days ago, and since I'm a Muslim, we are fasting since the true dawn to dusk, so that means no water or food in that time. And to be honest it really can be hard to fast for 15-16 hours on a day :P.
Also, these are the genres which are still in race:
Platformers, Action-Adventure (stealth, survival-horror, open world games), Adventure, Role-Playing games (Action RPG, MMORPG, Tactical RPG), Startegy (Real-Time Strategy, Tower defense, 4X, Real-Time tactics, Turn-based strategy, Turn-based tactics) and Puzzle.
See ya and have fun ;)
