Best FPS

[ZippyDSMlee]

Quake 2, Halo,Blood,Duke 3D, Unreal Gold(one with exspantion),Unreal tournament,Half Life, Turok 1-3(despite 3 being broken), Dues ex, System Shock,Halo 1 and only 1, Time splitters was fun as well.

Most newer games are filled with so many issues they simply lose their shine and become just another game.

HL2 is an ok game the levels are large but kinda bland the ending to 1 sucks , story wise its better than most but the weapons feel off and resulting game just feels off.

Bioshock/FO3 is under developed and unfinished from rushing it to market.

Unreal. No other FPS has come close to the atmospheric music, the unique and awesome weaponry and of course, the ability to type in the cheat to fly around the levels.

I'm somewhat disappointed no one has made a smart-ass comment about FPS being Frames Per Second, rather than First Person Shooter, but oh well. Oh, and System Shock 2 and Half Life 2 ftw.

Half-Life 2 ftw, loved every minute of it

 

[Kstreitenfeld]

I'd like to add Half-Life series

Halo 3. The best online multiplayer on the 'box yet; if only because if you suck you will be beaten around the head with a lampost, unlike COD where any retard can get 10 kills in a game of team deathmatch. Left 4 Dead comes somewhere close behind halo, though.

Perfect dark or Battlefield: bad company would be my choices. both are great in their own way (and i still play perfect dark to this day... N64 sitting proudly in front of my HDTV hehe)

Sigh... all these mentions of Bioshock is making me sad. It was a decent game, sure, definately not the "best ever"


Half-life, the original. You can't take down a classic.

 

[Jay2o3]

Deus Ex
System Shock 2

At the time of release, Halo: Combat Evolved was the best FPS ever and I think his good-but-not-great sequels made this amazing game really bad public relations for no reason (well, its stupid fanboys might have something to do with it too...)

"Multiplayerly" speaking, Call of Duty 4.

 

[Spaz91]

TF2 or Black

tl;dr

might start a flame war but I'm still really impressed with Killzone 2, and it's the most fun I've had with a blockbuster game in a really long time. Satisfying, pretty, what more do you want from an FPS? Also, the online play has me up all night.

 

[Satki]

Battlezone 2; not really an FPS, more of a FPS/RTS hybrid but close enough. Or TS2

 

[B1GM3]

Cod 4 is an awesome FPS. I think it is much better that cod 5 too because the whole first/second world war game genre seems to be getting a bit tired.

For me, I'd say its a contest between Crysis (original or Warhead, it honestly doesn't matter which), Left 4 Dead (the only multiplayer FPS that I've ever liked), Half-Life 2, Fallout 3 (it's not often that you see someone try to mix RPGs and FPSs and pull it off), and Painkiller Triple Dose edition (not much of a story, but it is mindless, stress-relieving fun at its best).

Metroid Prime Echoes, was great, really made the two worlds aspect click from A Link to the Past, though it shares more similarities to Oracle of Ages where past affects present like dark affects light but it goes both ways here. Ammo system was good, where although conserving it was pretty important, it's kinda hard to run out in the middle. The worlds were big and the bosses interesting. Split screen multiplayer and the return of the screw attack really helped.

Obox is great (especially portal) but I'm always going to have a soft spot in my heart for Unreal Tournament.

Great weapons, great stages and the best part were the mods. I had crazy mashups involving DBZ characters vs Warhammer 40k characters with voice mods of George Carlin, Pulp Fiction, and all sorts of other crazy shit on weird stages people made.

 

[Red Dragon414]

Yeah I play CoD4, then try to go to another FPS, and its just not the same. I love the realism that CoD has.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Half Life 2, but COD4 for multiplayer.

Halo just feels clunky after too much COD4

 

[Grounogeos]

Damn, yes it is. My bad.
So between Halo 3 and MP3.
