Gameplay Trailer of Paramount's Upcoming 'Shooter' Game

posted by arn on February 13th, 2009 12:37 AM EST in Upcoming Games

Tired of "Tap-to-Target" shooting games? It looks like Paramount's upcoming movie-inspired Shooter game could be the answer.

The promo video they've provided shows off a very nice-looking sniper-type game in which you are in control of the aiming. Few gameplay details were provided but it appears that you may use a combination the iPhone's tilt-control (or an onscreen directional pad) for aiming while on screen buttons control the firing and reloading action.

More game details should be coming soon.

Like Paramount's other iPhone titles such as Days of Thunder [App Store], Shooter is inspired by one of their movies of the same name.

The game is expected for release as early as next week.

    Looks sick!

  • D Dubs says:

    That looks awesome. And it's a movie-inspired game? Impressive. I can imagine the multi-touch would really suck you into it. Will definitely be looking for more on this one.

  • That looks quite good. It was a great film so I'll definitely be getting it.

  • Ace says:

    Impressive!!!!! Instant buy!

  • ilovemyfamily says:

    Great another sniper game..
    O even better, (not really) its based on a movie.
    Why do people think movie based games are gonna be good?
    Oh ya thats right.. those people above me arent real people who will download this, theyre probably just the devs who made the game
    trust me i can tell already, this is gonna be isniper with more hype

  • Fat Phil says:

    Doesn't that look a little bit like a J2ME/Brew mobile game? Looks like low colour palettes; and 1 frame for the jeep turning…?

  • Jay says:

    looks crappy 2D Engine with bad framerates, and bad gfx.

  • along123 says:

    Hmm ..looks interesting. But, yeah. Hope, it's not another isniper game. Why can't they create first person or 3rd person shooter? This is just a trailer. But, will be waiting for reviews when it come out.

  • marc says:

    i'm not particularly interested in shooting people in the head – just seems like a bad thing to 'practice' but… there's no denying the high production look of this game. wow! where's my rifle?! hehe

  • colin says:

    marc, I'm with you on this one- that was my first thought, "man, that's brutally violent!"… and knowing anyone of any age can buy this- wow! just a tad too brutal for my tastes!… but very true- amazing production values!!!

  • Hutch says:

    I read the book, "Point of impact" by Steven Hunter. The changed it to Shooter for the movie. Like most, it is better then the movie Shooter. And the movie was great! Once again the app store will get me money. Anybody play isniper? Is it any good?

  • Sol says:

    why is be just standing in me location? I hope he can move around, if not, CRAPPPPNEESS

  • Sol says:

    Why is he just standing in one location? I hope he can actually move around or else, this is CRAPPPINESS OF THE HIGHEST ORDER.

  • arn says:

    I think it looks pretty nice actually.

  • David says:

    I doubt the person will be able to move around. He is, after all, a sniper. They usually stay in one place.

  • uFo says:

    thats looks like s**t bad graphic sry :)

  • slappy says:

    I hope they improve the graphics, I'm still getting it.

  • captain-obvious says:

    this looks incredible!

    and i do love how everyone is commenting on the graphics being crappy, but this is a video that was obviously downgraded in quality when placed on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd_hWz6SFVk. click on the "watch in high quality" link on top of the views.

    this is the OPPOSITE of "crappiness of the highest order." kthxbai!

  • Sol says:

    Yeah, em that guy who comments on the character being a sniper should watch the video again. He also has other types of weapons which should let him move about. As I said before, the graphics can be improved from it's crappy state.

  • Steve says:

    colin

    violence makes good games better. The more violence, blood and guts the better. I think most of us play game to escape reality. Seeing I don't go around killing people in real life. It is always fun to do it in a game.

    this game looks like it could be good. I'll have to keep an eye on it when it comes out.

  • Ataru says:

    Wow, completely 2D with almost no animation. It's like going back in time 15 years. What a load of crap. I shall not be touching this for any price.

  • sk says:

    any news on this title? was hoping to have heard something back now if its due for release this week

  • rich_952000 says:

    Hostage holds their breath, terrorist holds a gun to hostages head, gun holds 9 bullets with 1 in the chamber, terrorist holdin gthe gun pulls the trigger. Apple holds the game in their hands, watches the scene unfold and pulls the plug on Paramounts "Shooter".

  • sk says:

    oh no pls dont say that. was hoping for a decent scope game finally on the iphone.
