Shooters is a broad genre of video games that encompasses all titles that feature gun fights as the primary form of in-game combat.

These games are presented from a first-person or third-person perspective and rely on the players' aim for pinpoint accuracy. For this very reason, shooters are some of the most popular games as they allow players to test out their hand-eye coordination while also having fun.

Titles like the original Doom and Quake defined many of the characteristic traits that shooting video games have to this day. Other titles like Halo introduced elements to elevate such games to even greater heights, with responsive weapons, intelligent enemy AI, and most of all, some very well-designed gunplay.

Gunplay is the overall feel of firing of a gun and its bullet impact inside a video game, which has become an iconic term for shooter games. Since Halo, many titles have showcased some of the best gunplay in the industry, making shooters fun to play even if they might sometimes have lackluster stories.

To showcase the best that the genre has to offer, here are five video games that feature some of the best gunplay.
