Alien Breed

Dread and tension

Aliens: Colonial Marines

Sci-fi setting

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.

F.E.A.R. 3

Dread and tension

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.
