Space Hulk: Deathwing

Dark, serious atmosphere

A grim first-person shooter in the Warhammer 40,000 universe where you play a Deathwing Space Marine fighting swarms of Genestealers in the cramped corridors of a Space Hulk, solo or in co-op.

Haze

Realistic visuals

A 2008 first-person shooter in which you play a soldier for a private military corporation, using the drug Nectar to boost your abilities until you realize you are fighting for the wrong side. The drug mechanic alters perception and combat, but the game fell short of expectations.

Inversion

Realistic visuals

A third-person cover shooter where gravity-manipulating weapons let you float enemies, throw objects and wreck cover. Best played in co-op, though it feels fairly average overall.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Action-packed real-time combat

A linear third-person shooter tied to the movie, where you play as Autobots or Decepticons and switch between robot, vehicle and the new Stealth Force hybrid mode. Multiplayer battles are included.

Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark

Action-packed real-time combat

A third-person shooter bridging the movie and Cybertron universes, letting you switch between robot and vehicle forms as various Transformers chasing the Dark Spark. The four-player Escalation mode adds cooperative wave-based combat with shared progression.

Section 8

Action-packed real-time combat

A sci-fi first-person shooter where you drop in from orbit, sprint across maps with a jetpack burst, and call in vehicles and turrets on demand. The focus is on fast, team-oriented battles.

MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf

Action-packed real-time combat

An action-packed BattleTech mech shooter where you pilot giant war machines, blow up everything around you, and can even hijack enemy mechs with BattleArmor. Alongside the single-player campaign, it offers online multiplayer battles on Xbox Live.

F.E.A.R. 3

Dark, serious atmosphere

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.

Quake 4

Dark, serious atmosphere

A linear sci-fi shooter on the Doom 3 engine where marine Matthew Kane takes the fight to the Strogg homeworld, featuring the infamous stroggification twist. Squad missions, vehicle sections and fast arena multiplayer round it out.
