Recently, 2K Games and Yager Entertainment released a third person military shooter with a twist that goes by the name Spec Ops: The Line. The mechanics were similar to many other third person shooters, but the story was something that had to be experienced to be fully appreciated. The plot was dark and disturbing, and featured a narrative that was closer to Apocalypse Now than most shooters. It was a psychological journey down the dark recesses of—actually, you know what? Just read our review for more details on the game and why we thought it was the bee’s knees. But even then, don’t take our word for it. Why not win a copy and find out for yourselves?

Favorite Shooter: Battlefield 1942
Xbox 360 Preferred, please and thank you!
The very first Tribes game is my all time favorite FPS. I could play that game for hours until my hands cramped up. I would love a PC version if I win
Battlefield 1942 Best Shooter Ever…. World War 2 plus being able to fly in a Zero or go in a ship that you can control and fire at people using. This game had a lot of amazing elements to bring to FPS that you can’t find anywhere else, even today sadly.
Hi Ryan.

Red Dead Redemption comes to mind. It my favorite of the top of my head.
Xbox 360

PC.
BTW it was this contest link at Cortandfatboy.com the got me to finally check out digital trends.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six. I would prefer Xbox 360, but if those copies are already won then PS3 works too.
half-life 2. ps3 or x-box 360. i played spec ops the line and was very satisfied with this game. i also have been looking forward to this game for a long time.(like 2 years) better make a part two because i am a big fan now.
No One Lives Forever 2, an FPS for the PC — the humor was IMPECCABLE in that one; Cate Archer was a very cute heroine… and they seriously just do not make swingin’ sixties themed FPS any more… a pity they didn’t come out with a NOLF3.
(Hoping for a copy on the PC of course :) )
