Hi all! I have selected the 20 best third-person shooters of the entire history of gaming. Games are constantly monitored and new ones are added. I haven’t added any games for 2016 and 2017 yet, because in order to become the best, games need to stand up to time.

Max Payne 1 and 3 Release date:

2001-2009 Genre:

Third person shooter,

All three parts of the adventures of Max Payne are third-person shooters, imitating films of the noir genre. At the same time, the first part of the game became a kind of revolutionary, since it was the first to use the Bullet Time effect, as well as a number of other interesting discoveries for that time. In addition to the exciting gameplay, critics and players around the world noted the high cinematography of what was happening (which is not surprising, since the developers were inspired by the films of John Woo) and the brilliant presentation of the plot. The third game in the franchise was a worthy successor to the first two parts, despite the fact that many fans were initially intimidated by the change in color scheme to brighter and cheerful tones, as well as the fact that main character

aged and outwardly did not look at all like himself. But the fears of the players were unfounded, since the third Max Payne was exactly the “Max” that everyone was waiting for - a moderately hardcore, furious action of the old school with time dilation.

Max Payne 1 and 3 Release date:

2001-2009 Genre:

Mafia 1 and 2 Third person shooter with open world

and elements of a car simulator, which was initially perceived by many as “a GTA clone, but about the mafia.” At the same time, the game had an excellent plot, interesting gameplay features and a delightful atmosphere, and very quickly won an army of loyal fans all over the world.

The second part of the game also turned out to be very successful. The graphics were significantly improved, and the plot, although it had virtually nothing to do with the first part (except for some references), was also very interesting. The world around us became more alive and realistic, while the game mechanics as a whole were reminiscent of the previous part, but not without certain improvements and new features. And although some particularly ardent fans of the first part spoke negatively about the second mafia, saying that it does not have the spirit of the old school, the game definitely deserves attention, and in many of its aspects it is head and shoulders above the first part.

Max Payne 1 and 3 Hitman series

2001-2009 Genre:

Hitman Blood Money is a third-person assassin simulator with a strong focus on the stealth action genre. The game is the fourth in the series and continues the story of the hero codenamed Agent 47. “Blood Money” boasts an excellent plot, huge variability and non-linearity of missions, in addition, compared to previous parts, a number of innovations have been added here, namely: the ability to take hostages, arrange an “accident” for the victim, improve weapons, etc. The game is considered by many fans to be the best in the series.

Absolution is the fifth part in the series, developing the successful ideas of the fourth. There is more stealth in the game and less dressing up, enemies have learned to distinguish a disguised character, the map has disappeared, replaced by the so-called “Instinct”. Programmed accidents remained, but the variability of the passage decreased noticeably.

Gears of War

Max Payne 1 and 3 2006

2001-2009 Third person shooter

A spine-tingling third-person shooter that follows the adventures of Marcus Fenix ​​and other Delta Force soldiers as they fight against a ruthless underground enemy. The game actively uses such a gameplay element as “shelters and rolls”, around which, in fact, the entire gameplay is built. At the time of its release, the game was more than warmly received by critics and players, who praised its gameplay and sophisticated graphics.

The game features a lot of weapons, among which, in fact, the brand of the series has become assault rifle with a built-in chainsaw for close combat. The plot is presented by a company of five acts, which can be completed either alone or in co-op with a friend. In some places, the game will offer a choice of one of two paths, but such a division, in fact, does not affect the plot.

Mass Effect series

Max Payne 1 and 3 2007-2017

2001-2009 Genre:

A third-person action role-playing game that tells us the story of Captain Shepard and his confrontation with the race of so-called “Reapers”. The series includes three games that are united by a common plot. Moreover, a number of actions performed by the player in the early parts will directly affect the plot in the later ones.

The trilogy boasts excellent graphics, a well-thought-out leveling system, a non-linear and well-written plot, as well as a deep study of the surrounding world. Battles take place in real time, but there is a tactical pause mode where the player can give orders to team members, change weapons or use character abilities. The latter, as well as the player, have their own specialization (of which there are 6), which determines the development of the character, the weapons and skills he uses.

Dead Space series

Max Payne 1 and 3 2008-2013

The game is a direct continuation of the first part and tells us about the adventures of agent Rico Rodriguez.

On the island archipelago, where the second part of Just Cause takes place, there are a number of factions that we can help. In this case, in the territory controlled by such groups, we will subsequently be able to receive assistance. The game does not have multiplayer, however, fans of the project developed a mod that adds a multiplayer game for more than 1000 people, which was subsequently officially published.

Max Payne 1 and 3 2010

2001-2009 Third person shooter, aliens

A third-person shooter, which is a continuation of the first part and begins 10 years after the events of the original game. Most of the gameplay features are taken directly from the first part, in particular - control of mechanized armor, epic boss battles, etc. It is noteworthy that over 10 years on the planet where the game takes place, the climate has become milder, so now players will not lose thermal energy.

Lost Planet 2 also took some of the multiplayer modes from its predecessor, but several modes became completely unique. It is noteworthy that in multiplayer you can customize your character, choosing not only the shell, but also models of the torso, face, legs, back, etc. In general, the game has made a big step forward compared to the first part, but is not without some problems associated with an inconvenient interface and level design.

Alan Wake

2001-2009 Third person shooter,

An exciting shooter, the developers of which defined its genre as “psychological action thriller.” The main character of the game is a writer named Alan Wake, who is trying to find his missing wife and suddenly encounters a paranormal entity. Finding the pages of his long-forgotten manuscript, the character realizes that what is happening follows the plot of a novel he once wrote and has long forgotten.

The game has “day” and “night” parts, in which the gameplay changes dramatically. During the daytime, the gameplay is calm and allows the player to get to know the city and its inhabitants better. At night, the main action begins, in which light plays a very important role. For example, some monsters can be scared away or killed by the light of a hand-held flashlight, and if you stand under a street lamp, the character’s health will quickly be restored. There is no multiplayer in the game.

L.A. Noire

Max Payne 1 and 3 2011

2001-2009 Third person shooter, police,

A detective simulator, made in the genre of third-person action, which takes place in Los Angeles in 1947. The main character is police detective Kolu Phelps, who is investigating mysterious crimes. Actually, it is built on investigations most of gameplay. So, for example, how successfully the player searched for evidence and all kinds of clues will directly depend on how completely the case will be solved.

It is noteworthy that in addition to the main plot, there are also additional missions. For example, the player can answer calls from a police radio and complete tasks received there. The player can move around the world both on foot and in various vehicles. Also, our character has access to various costumes that may have special properties.

The game has a cover system and a strong tactical component. You take control of one of the four special squad fighters, but you cannot switch between the other characters. Among the game's features, it is worth noting the "Synchronized Shot", which allows ghosts to simultaneously eliminate up to four targets. The main difference between this part and other games in the series is that the ghosts have advanced weapon systems, including: sensor grenades, adaptive camouflage, quadcopter, etc.

2001-2009 Third person shooter, special forces

A third-person shooter game and the eleventh game in the Spec Ops series. The action of this part takes place in the city of Dubai, which after large-scale sandstorms became a disaster zone. The plot centers on fighters of the Delta special squad, who find themselves drawn into a conflict between terrorists and the rebels. infantry battalion US Army.

In terms of gameplay, the game differs from previous parts of the series (for which many fans gave it low ratings), but it is worth giving the game a chance, especially since the gameplay, and especially the plot, are beyond praise (the project even received a number of awards for the best plot in computer games). One of the gameplay features is sand, which can be used for your own purposes (for example, to hide from enemies during a sandstorm). As for the plot, its main “trick” is the absence of a clearly “good” or “bad” side. All the player’s actions can be interpreted differently, and this literally opens the player’s eyes to real military operations, when not only enemies, but also civilians suffer from bombing.

The game boasts a meticulously recreated Hong Kong, high-quality graphics, many side quests and other joys of the open world. There is the possibility of pumping, and there is also an authority scale that is filled when completing missions. At the same time, some things will not be available to you until you receive the next level of authority.

2001-2009 Third Person Shooter, Mafia, Create a Character, Open World

A third-person open-world action-adventure game in which the player, as in previous installments, controls the leader of the Third Street Saints gang. The game, just like the previous part, balances on the brink of the reality of what is happening and its complete absurdity. In addition, there are many references to numerous films and games. For example, almost the entire concept of the fourth part is built on interaction with the virtual world, which is a direct reference to the film “The Matrix”.

The game received mostly positive reviews and most critics agreed that it is definitely an enjoyable game. The project also received several major additions, in one of which two “saints” will have to literally go to hell to save their boss, who is awaiting a forced marriage with the daughter of Satan.

In total, the game has three styles of passage: ghost (with non-lethal neutralization of enemies), panther (secret passage with killing enemies) and assault (when the player goes straight ahead, fighting all enemies openly).

Among the innovations, it is worth noting the “kill on the move” mechanic, which gives the player the opportunity to select targets and very quickly neutralize them.

The plot, as well as the gameplay itself, is told here on behalf of three characters, who also have unique abilities.

The missions are varied, but the main part of the plot is based on bank robberies. Moreover, every robbery that can be completed different ways, we don’t just mindlessly go through it, but plan it completely down to the smallest detail. In addition to heists and story missions, there is also something to do here (fortunately there are a lot of side missions here). Well, those who are tired of playing the game can always go online to create real chaos there.

The gameplay of the game, which has a number of interesting discoveries and innovations (for example, we have the development of a base in which we spend a lot of time between missions, improving the weapons and abilities of the protagonist), was highly praised by critics, but the plot turned out to be too confusing, due to which the game received mixed reviews. However, most agreed that the game was worth playing without seriously considering the script.

At the time of its release, the game received mixed reviews from both fans of the franchise and critics. They all agreed that the project perfectly conveys the atmosphere of the wasteland and captivates with its crazy car battles, but is depressing with the monotony of dull side missions and a simplified combat system. In fact, the game is worth playing if you only play through the story and don't get distracted by side quests.

Our heroine will have to make ammunition and various useful loot for herself, hunt animals, explore the world, but at the same time your main enemy will remain environment(avalanches, snow storms, etc.). The animation in the game has improved, and in general the project turned out to be beyond praise. We definitely recommend it to all fans of the series and high-quality adventure games!

A special feature of third-person shooters is that the camera is located behind the game character and allows you to look at the game plot from the outside. This allows you to change the viewing angle around an event, see the whole picture (see your character in detail) and scenes that a first-person player would never be able to see. If you look from a gaming point of view, the camera also allows you to see the entire space around the hero and what is happening behind him, which is very important for 3rd person shooters, where there are creeping enemies or small details that can be captured again. This kind of gameplay allows you to fully enjoy the plot.

Third person shooters

The development of the TPS (“third-person shooter”) genre began especially rapidly in the 2000s, facilitated by the popularity of the Max Payne and Mafia projects. It was thanks to the third-person view that Max Payne introduced innovative time dilation technology (“bullet time” or better known as “slo-mo”), and in Mafia an entire virtual city was given to the player. However, at that time the developers faced a big problem, since the camera “floating” behind the character often went beyond the boundaries of the accessible world, got lost and simply got stuck in the textures, which very often led to errors and the collapse of the gameplay. To avoid such problems, developers, to create a third-person shooter game, had to create a certain framework beyond which the camera could not go, but this made the scene less rich, and soon this method gave way to an “intelligent” camera that changed places its location depending on the game situation.

Third person games

Third-person games provided the opportunity to introduce another interesting technology that is very popular today. It's about about the cover system, which allows the character to interact with elements of the game world and hide behind various objects. This system looks especially striking in the Gears of War series of games, where cover plays vital role throughout the gameplay. Today, all the best third-person shooters include elements of this system to some extent. This is especially true for games with mixed genres (for example, shooters + RPGs). By applying this technology, everyone immediately flooded the gaming market with requests to buy 3rd person games, such as the recent monsters: Mass Effect, and Deus Ex. And it would be impossible to imagine them without the ability of the characters to take cover and hide behind various columns, shelves, etc.

Buy third party games

Today, third-person games or TPS are experiencing a real boom. Resident Evil, Hitman, Splinter Cell, Tomb Rider - all these popular franchises belong to this genre. There is absolutely nothing surprising in the fact that the number of people wanting to buy third-person shooters is growing at a breathtaking pace, because such games give the player much more options than buying a typical first-person shooter.

New third-person games have no clear genre boundaries

Having examined the game world in more detail, you can see that few people adhere to the clear boundaries of the genre, moreover, they are practically erased, since everyone is trying to make the gameplay as rich, enjoyable and dynamic as possible for their user. To do this, developers are trying to optimize their product as much as possible for the increasing demands of players in the ever-growing game development. However, it becomes obvious that all popular game series, be it MMORG, or the regular desktop version, all of them use 3rd person technology with all the attendant details of this interesting innovation.

View from the outside

Third-person shooter games provide gamers with a larger viewing radius compared to projects that demonstrate a view of ongoing events from the eyes of the protagonist. The camera located behind the main character allows you to observe his actions, and also shows the space around him, so the player can better react to possible threats from different sides.

Initially, due to technical limitations of gaming platforms, developers rigidly fixed the virtual camera and did not allow it to rotate around the character. However, today gamers are free to choose their point of view: if desired, they can view the protagonist from all angles. Moreover, many modern projects implement a so-called “intelligent” camera, which independently determines viewpoints depending on the situation, which enhances the immersion effect in the game.

Benefits of Third Person View

The increased viewing radius mentioned above is not the only advantage of TBS games. Truly innovative mechanics that were brought into gaming industry third-person shooters, now a system of cover and blind shooting. For the first time, the ability to hide behind various objects and conduct aimless fire from cover appeared in the 2004 action game Kill Switch, but this gameplay feature gained popularity with the release of one of the best third-person action games - Gears of War. Today, it’s a rare action game without the opportunity to “stick” to a life-saving column or box and catch your breath a little.
