Aliens: Colonial Marines

Shooting and gunplay

A first-person shooter set in the Aliens universe where you fight xenomorphs and mercenaries as a Colonial Marine, solo or in co-op. Known for leaning on the franchise's atmosphere, but also for its technical and design shortcomings.

Area 51

Easy to pick up

You blast your way through a military base full of aliens in this on-rails light gun shooter, where fast targeting and rapid reactions keep the pressure high. Its arcade roots show in short, intense sessions that you can also tackle with a friend.

F.E.A.R. 3

Playing together in co-op

A linear horror shooter where you fight as the slow-mo-wielding Point Man or the body-possessing ghost Paxton Fettel, best played in co-op with a friend. Combat is more action-heavy than its predecessors, with the scares somewhat toned down.

Killing Floor

Co-op or multiplayer

A wave-based co-op shooter where up to six players fend off hordes of grotesque clone mutants and gear up at the trader between rounds. Class perks, teamwork and the brutal Patriarch boss fight define the experience.

Loaded

Shooting and gunplay

A brutal top-down shooter for the PlayStation featuring six deformed, bizarre characters such as a psychotic clown and a giant baby. You blast through hordes of enemies in grim prison-style missions, solo or with a second player.

Alien Breed 3: Descent

Shooting and gunplay

A top-down sci-fi shooter where engineer Conrad fights through swarms of aliens aboard a doomed, crashing spaceship. Dark atmosphere, hard-hitting weapons and upgrades define the experience.

Zombie Panic! Source

Co-op or multiplayer

You fight through zombie hordes with a team in this Half-Life 2 modification, where coordination and nerves are equally tested. The mix of teamwork and panic is what makes it special.

The House of the Dead III

Dark, serious atmosphere

A fast arcade light-gun shooter where you blast through hordes of mutants and zombies. Branching paths and rescue moments add variety, wrapped in a gritty, B-movie horror mood.
