Shooting, where you can walk - for such a description suits about a thousand computer games (if not more). It should be noted the most famous. More details - in the article.

Genre

More common name of such projects is shooters. From the English word shoot - shoot. Usually these are games with a first-person view, where the hero's hands are displayed on the screen, holding weapons, in the center of the screen is a sight for more accurate hits on enemies, and on the sides or at the bottom of the screen - the game interface. As a rule, the latter includes the level of vital energy of the protagonist, the stock of cartridges and some secondary information.

Less common are shooters with a third-person view. This is not a shooter 3D, where you can walk from side to side. The term 3D means graphic technologies - the game involves carefully crafted characters. At the same time shooters with a third-person view may not necessarily be 3D.

Unreal Tournament

Remembering the first popular games-shooters with weapons, where you can walk, remember this futuristic shooter. First-person view. The game takes place in a cooperative mode: players are divided into teams and enter into a firefight on a randomly generated or specially selected card. In the arsenal are all kinds of machine guns, grenade launchers, laser cannons, sniper rifles. Everyone chooses their weapons to taste.

Counter Strike

Another shooter, where you can walk with weapons, conquered all computer clubs at the beginning of two thousandths - the famous "Contra". Screams "Terrorist Win!" You could hear from the window of the club, just passing by, and understand what the schoolchildren are playing right now.

Accidentally overheard in public transport, the terminology like "Yesterday on Asalta were cut" also gave out gaming preferences to the younger generation.

STALKER

Suddenly released shooter, where you can walk with weapons, with a first-person view, made a coup among the fans of the genre. "Shadow of Chernobyl" - this is the name of the first part of the franchise. The atmosphere of post-apocalypse, and even on the maps of the post-Soviet space, for a long time, attracted the attention of gamers.

The plot is based on the life of hunters for particularly valuable artifacts within the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. A stalker nicknamed "Labeled" should remove a "Strelka", and also find a way to turn off the Burner of the Brains and open the way to Pripyat. And later - to find under the sarcophagus of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant a certain wish-seeker known as the "Monolith".

The project became so popular that it was released: the prequel "Clear Sky" and the sequel "Call of Pripyat".

Developers also planned to release the game STALKER 2, but for unknown reasons postponed.

Mass Effect

And this is a third-person shooter, with elements of fiction. The company BioWare gave impetus to the development of the whole universe of the "Mass Effect". Gamers who prefer shooting games, where you can walk not with conventional weapons, but with laser futuristic rifles, are plunged into a new game project.

Unusual plot, high-quality graphics, ornate dialogues, romantic lines and unusual original characters - these are the keywords that can characterize the entire Mass Effect kvadroliyu from BioWare.

Serious Sam

You can not ignore this furious thriller. Shooting games with weapons, where you can walk, run, jump, throw grenades, blow everything up, destroy and smash a little than they can surpass "Steep Sam". The release was very popular at the beginning of the two thousandth. I drew attention to myself with dynamics, an interesting story, the presence of enemies, the simplicity of the gameplay and the presence of a sense of humor.

The plot is very simple - Sam needs to confront the cosmic menace in the face of Mental, shoot down the hordes of enemies that rush to him on each map. Dodge the intrusive clamorous kamikaze, which is how they strive to undermine the main character, as well as "overwhelm" the giant bosses who are eager to trample Sam.

Online game with a first-person view, telling about the confrontation of the soldiers of the organization "Warfyus" to the world evil called "Blackwood". The latter are something like a corporation, which wants to gain control of the whole world by any means. Warface combines both classic elements of a shooter based on Counter Strike (PvP card games between players, laying bombs, defense of the base), and elements of science fiction: there are missions where it is necessary to shoot off attacking zombies, which are the fruit of unsuccessful experiments "Blackwood" On the control of consciousness.
