Back when my primary console was an Xbox 360 it seemed 3rd person shooters were rife, Obviously Gears of war was the stand out with its groundbreaking cover system and fantastic multiplayer.
I know own a PS5 and It seems with latest trends development teams are trying to emulate games like Fortnite, Pubg etc by making halfway house battle royale’s.
But what happened to the tried and true 4v4 or 5v5 on a symmetrical map with weapon spawns where you had to use map control and communication with friends to win games, One death and it’s over you let the team down you have to master the mechanics/movement to earn your place among the winners.
The last game I played online that followed this formula was last of us and it was fucking brilliant, I’ll always have my soft spot for Gears of war but I have a PS5 these days and the lack of 3rd person multiplayer experiences in the vain of GOW & LOU is a true shame.
I don’t feel like this type of experience is outdated either as gears of war is still going strong and you can find a slew of satans own demons lurking in Last of us factions waiting to feed.
So where are they? I’m starved…
