All very true, except the soundtrack part... "very decent"? - "Epic" is the correct descriptionArqus_Zed said:

If this is best as in most influential then I understand why the majority of the options are over a decade old.
But best as in favourite, and in no particular order (can't decide between them):
James Bond 007: Nightfire - The settings and gameplay of the levels were great and varied. The story was original and satisfying. The multiplayer was great, although there was only 1 stand-out map. I had Halo: CE too but between Nightfire and Timesplitters it sat rejectedly in a corner.
Timesplitters 2 - This needs no real explanation. I played Future Perfect too.
Shadowrun - An under appreciated gem that was a commercial failure and a frustration in the sense that while you played it you knew it could have been so much better. There was a long period of time when I played nothing else; only leaving it when a large enough party called me to Gears.
Modern Warfare 2 - No other game has kept me playing for so long. I can't deny it's a great game when I see the ~300 hours played.

BulletStorm should be considered, as it's killing in an art form.
I have to go with DOOM though. How is it possible to not like that game?

the battlefield series is probably my favourite, i like the team based aspect of it, as opposed to CODs k/d ratio based gameplay
glad to see all the half-life 2 love. I feel like it isn't appreciated nearly as much these days. All these kids wanna talk about are their Halos and Call of Dutys
So it can't be great if the graphics aren't extremely appealing? I agree that it's a brown blob of dirt, but the feeling in Quake 1 has yet to be toppled by any game.Archangel357 said:
Besides, since when was this thread not about opinions?
Scopes are the cancer that is killing the FPS genre for me. I can't stand Camper Strike or Modern Warfare because of all the sitting around with a scoped rifle. The only game I really liked that even contains a sniper rifle is the first Unreal Tournament, and trust me when I say it was NOT great because of the sniper rifle.
My personal favorite is Modern Warfare 1, but to be honest I haven't really played enough of the older games to make a very informed choice... I'm working on that.
Cod4 is still a fantastic game though.

Hands down Turok 2: Seeds of Evil. Easily my favorite game of all time and the only game I can think of with a heat-seeking burst-fire rocket launcher.
