Doom 64

Shooting and gunplay

A classic first-person shooter where you blast through 30+ grim levels of demons, hunt secrets and track down the Mother of Demons. The remaster of the N64 original delivers retro pacing, key-hunting level design and an eerie atmosphere.

Half-Life

Realistic visuals

The landmark shooter sends physicist Gordon Freeman through the alien- and soldier-infested Black Mesa facility, telling its story seamlessly without cutscenes while mixing tense firefights with environmental and physics puzzles.

Half-Life: Source

Realistic visuals

The Source engine version of the shooter classic: as scientist Gordon Freeman you fight through aliens and soldiers after an experiment goes wrong at Black Mesa. Updated lighting, water and physics refresh the look, but it remains the tightly scripted, linear original.

Quake 4

Shooting and gunplay

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.

Alien Trilogy

Sci-fi setting

A grim 1996 first-person shooter that recreates the Alien films across 30 levels, as you blast through corridors full of facehuggers, xenomorphs and Queens with a range of weapons. The claustrophobic atmosphere and motion tracker build constant tension.

Doom 3

Shooting and gunplay

A grim first-person shooter set on a Mars research base where hell breaks loose. Cramped, pitch-black corridors, jump scares and scarce resources make it feel more like survival horror than the fast-paced classic Doom.

F.E.A.R.

Shooting and gunplay

A first-person shooter that pairs explosive slow-motion firefights against remarkably smart enemy AI with unsettling psychological horror built around the eerie girl Alma. Its destructible gunfights are still held up as a genre benchmark.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin

Shooting and gunplay

An intense first-person shooter that pairs slow-motion gunfights against smart AI soldiers with unsettling supernatural horror centered on the vengeful Alma. Mech sequences and movable cover add variety to its tightly paced, linear scares.
