50 Cent: Bulletproof

Max Payne 3

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number

Challenging difficulty

Kill.Switch

A third-person shooter built around a cover system with blind-fire, sending you through linear sci-fi firefights. Crates for cover and explosive barrels shape the combat.

Shooting and gunplay

Reservoir Dogs

Shooting and gunplay
