full spectrum warrior is a good tactical third person game.
how about the conflict desert storm games, those are good third person shooters.
red dead revolver was ok at best.
Check out kill swtich, its a fun game , but really short, and thats what hurts it.

The newest OXM had a demo of FSW. It seems as though it is a very good game. I may pick it up myself. But it's not your traditional 3rd person shooter.

FSW isn't really a shooter at all. But for squad based third person shooters..can't go wrong with Ghost Recon, Ghost Recon: Island Thunder (although this one is pathetically short), and Rainbow Six 3.

Freedom Fighters got good reviews, and can be had for around $11 through EA.com with the coupon

FSW is a third person tactical blah blah, no shoting.
you tell them when and in which direction to shot but you don't do any of the shoting.
i read a review in my local paper for it, the response is slow, uhhh, yeah, the whole chain of command thing is pretty cool to.

If you do decide to get FSW I would definitely recommend renting it or playing the OXM demo first. I can see how many people would not like it.

The Ghost Recon games are first person, not third person.
FSW is a strategy game, not a shooter.
Conflict II was a great game, especially in co-op. I was surprised at how good it was.
Psi-Ops is another good third person game. You'll probably end up relying on the Psi powers more than the guns, but there are some pretty vicious gun battles regardless.
Get Armed & Dangerous. It's really fun.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Metal Arms yet. I recommend it very highly.

Metal Arms was $5 at BB online a while back. Check there as it goes in and out of stock.
I picked one up at $5. I wasn't impressed.

I'd go for Armed and Dangerous, great game. You can get it now at most places for $20 or $15 at BB after GGC.
