Games like Stalker or Far Cry 2 which feature numerous (mainly) realistic guns but with weapon degradation so you’re forced to switch out weapons, reasonably intelligent opponent AI, slowly regenerating life supplemented with medical packs, multiple ammunition types to juggle even for the same class of weapons and stuff like that.
