Shootouts
 

Sometimes you just want to play the hero. These games are violent and include shooting but, as with B-movies and 1980s TV series, it’s as much about the quips, characters and fantasy settings as it is about killing.

This list includes 131 games from the last 28 years, with 2,869 likes. They come from a range of different genres and play-styles and are all good games if you want to take on baddies with fists and guns.
