>So(n)y shooters

I only liked Syphon Filter because it was proto Uncharted

Killzone 2 was a good game and it's feeling of hulking guns that had weight to them was a touch I haven't seen in any other game. God I wish it was on PC.

I know currently people are anal over multiplayer shooters being preferred over single player but holy shit Sony had some GOOD multiplayer shooters.

MAG is underrated as fuck and Warhawk is a god damn classic. Killzone 2 has amazing multiplayer and Resistance 2 has some of the best FPS coop ever .

>Have to use the controller to aim

Trash all around.

>God I wish it was on PC.

Monkey's Paw: It's an Epic Store exclusive.

>Killzone

Pretty average series that has some good lore and ideas, but overall middling and linear gameplay and level design, multiplayer was pretty good back then though. Mercenary is also pretty damn good especially for being a handheld spinoff.

>Resistance

Underrated series. First game played a lot like Halo 1 and 2 but better, with a good atmosphere, level design, and solid multiplayer. 2's campaign was a bit disjointed and not as good with its more linear levels and cheap difficulty spikes, though the multiplayer was really good for what it was despite being way different from the first. 3 had a better campaign than 2 and I thought it was really novel how the start of the game takes place in my home state but the multiplayer was a disappointing CoD-wannabe.

>Disruptor (not a Soyny FPS technically but I'm including it anyway)

Great Doom clone that deserves a Doom 64 EX-type sourceport.

>MAG

A neat, ambitious game that I think would have really taken off… if it had been released for PC.

>SOCOM

Pretty good tactical shooter series on the PS2, online multiplayer was also probably the best for the console, really a shame the series lost focus and died on the PS3.

>Syphon Filter

I don't really count it, has more in common with Tomb Raider and Metal Gear Solid than a normal shooter. Good games though.

>Warhawk/Starhawk

RIP, Warhawk was a really fun game that I'd still be playing if they had made it to PC. Starhawk was okay but not quite up to par with Warhawk imo.

is ti too much to ask for a new Killzone game?

Now that the helghast have half of their original planet back, they need to take the rest of it back.

The Uncharted Collection made little changes, but they had a big effect.

-1080p60

-tighter aiming

-REMOVED THE SIXAXIS SHIT

I wish we got one of these collections for Killzone and Resistance. Resistance 3 has the worst start of any game (I'm talking about the first arena with all the wire) but the rest is A+ Golden.

Syphon Filter and SOCOM were good.

I returned mag and bought the first red dead redemption

>>16302772

Well uh, we should just forget about that one.

>MAG never came to PC

They could re-release it on PC right the fuck now as a free to play game, and it'd fucking print money from the "muh modern warfrare" fags, now that every big shooter is either WW2 or futuristic.

>>16301592

MAG was fucking trash.

>>16307458

MAG was fucking based and you know it

>>16302772

most fun i ever had with my pants on

>>16307687

Because jewbisoft fucked them over hard? BF3 was 90% complete and i blame the president of lucas arts for killing it an SW1313

>these games suck cancell them

>the forced unleased looks hella good keep working on it

no suprise he was a former EA employee that basically kiilled lucasarts

>>16301495

This.

>>16301520

The PC platform allows you to use mouse or gamepad or both. Consoles arbitrarily forbid kb+m and actively bans people for using it. You don't see fighting games banning arcade sticks.

>>16307994

That's fine. Kbm makes all shooters feel the same, designing around a controller encourages far more unique design.

Hi /tv/

>>16310293

it still hurts

>>16321060

Casstap? Don't tell me you are still autismally grinding that shit.

[wwew] is ultra dead today, isn't it. I quit for the second time in December. I'd be lying if I said I had no fun with it, but it just ran so fucking bad and the developers made so many absurd, retarded decisions.

Game is on its last legs by now, but I'd have a lot of schadenfreude if Planetside Arena ended up even more dead than PS2. It probably will, who the fuck wants to play a shitty looking and badly performing Bad Company 2 clone today? They're smart on giving a ton of different game modes but that will just lead to a divided playerbase and it's hard to shake off the feeling that it is just another bad BR (a bad, 30$ one at that) for normalfags who are already dedicated to various BR games.

>>16302800

Uncharted games still do count as shooters. They might not be like the games I posted in the OP but they do count. I know what you mean with that picture though.

>>16321122

it plays fine with a mouse, infact even better than using some controller

>aiming focused game

so your a fag that uses auto aim or has never played the game?

>>16321096

If it's Cass he joined a different outfit since there were only four people from wwew online in the last month, and he wasn't one of them.

Anyways, WWEW was/is the fifth or sixth largest outfit on memerald by members alone, which I find hilarious.

>>16307452

I highly doubt that would happen. What would actually happen is that people would try it out, realize they can't Rambo their way to a win, then never touch it again. This fucking infuriates me because MAG was the first FPS since Doom to hold my attention more than 10 minutes. The fact that it required cooperation and people willing to play support roles was the best thing about it, and it was also what turned off the CoD crowd from the game. Your average normalfag just wants to run and gun while seeing a kill streak go up.

>>16321382

>not having the games to begin with

MAG was top-tier. Like abother anon said, if it was thrown on PC and had the graphics updated, it would be godly.

It didn't have the p2w/dev bias issues that PS2 has, though there were still some balance issues that persisted when the game stopped being updated. i.e. SEVR's optics had a fantastic sight picture while Raven's was pure garbage.

I liked how you actually could build a kit around particular roles and make it viable with skill distributions that you could reset. If you wanted to go full commando, you could spec up to rapidly arm charges, carry a motion sensor jammer, wear light armor for better movements speed, etc.

I personally always kept a super long-range anti-material rifle loadout, because the maps were large enough to justify using a huge scope and it would actually fuck up jeeps and turrets, not to mention putting everybody in bleedout state except for max armor fags.

I'd like to see KZ2 brought back in some way. Give it a 60fps port and get that multiplayer back. Closest thing to a sequel to day of defeat we ever got. Class based shooters might be dead and replaced with hero shit and battle royale shit seeing just one remnant of that era come back for a bit would be great. I never played MAG but it seemed pretty gimmicky at the time. Maybe I should look at some game play to see what I missed.

>>16321972

>>16321791

Both of these games were great and I miss them.

As for KZ2 though I don't think the game would survive too well in the current year which is sad.

>forbid kb+m and banish people

>>16323053

KB+M don't work on consoles so people use a third party peripheral.

>>16321373

Yeah, Cass is no longer in a outfit. I checked his profile.

He appears to be still playing though, last online was 31st of March.

>>16301518

Can still pirate it so what's the problem?

>>16326929

probably because you're a strawmanning retard who thinks the snes isn't an entry level system
