    I've not played one I thought was good but people say Brothers in Arms and Republic Commando are good (popamolers).

    I really enjoyed both though the later Brothers in Arms games aren't very good.

    The only "true" popamole I have really enjoyed was what I felt was the progenitor for console cover-shooters, Kill.Switch, which seemed pretty nifty for its time...

    Another good popamole game is Batman: Arkham Asylum. It plays by itself, you just press the button and something cool happens. But its fun for 8-10 hours it lasts. Just a proof that you dont need good gameplay when you got a nice development budget.

    I like both Uncharted games, especially the second one. Popamole as hell, but enjoyable. I was blown away by much of the scenery in the second game. The dialogue and the characters were great, at least for a third-person shooter. I felt like I was going on a globe-spanning adventure right along with Drake
    :love:

    Great game, but I don't think it's really popamole or has bad gameplay. The gameplay was enjoyable, particularly when Bats was in a room with a bunch of goons and you could take them down however you wanted.

    Dark Sector was the only popamole game I remember enjoying. Good graphics (blurry textures ruin them though) and great action. A small buy/sell/upgrade weaponry section between levels. I am going to replay it now..

    I played Time Crisis arcade today. I had a horrible performance - I missed first 3-5 shots almost every time while normally I hit with first and/or second shot.
