Halo's my #1 on that list.
No other FPS I've played has it's unique combination of variety, depth, and accessability.
TF2 might come close to contending with it if it was still good on 360 but Valve being shit on the console drops it down since I have to play it on my laptop.

Fair enough, I just think Valve have taken the "this is a Half-Life mod but we'll make you pay full retail price for it as if its a standalone game" craze too far.
I thought the original Half-Life did have multiplayer, just pretty pants multiplayer?
Yeah Team Fortress was in Quake, but I meant Team Fortress the first Half-Life version.
Kind of strange that I forgot about Q:TF - but I only played it a couple of times.
I was all about TDM

Except Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 are just Half-Life 2 ModsAdzma said:
So technically you would be voting for "The Half-Life Series" if the vote was modified
The only three of these I've ever had the chance of playing online are CoD, Battlefield, and Halo. Of those, I far more enjoyed Halo, even though CoD can be very fun in moderation too, especially playing with friends. Battlefield I didn't really play enough to form a solid opinion of. Halo's gameplay is (and this is not intended to be flame-bait, I swear) in my opinion more conducive to a slower, more tactical style of gameplay that I like, without losing any excitement.
However, I'd like to play Crysis 2 online when I get the chance. From the single player campaign, it feels like it'd be pretty sweet.

I find Halo to be more infuriating than any CoD game I have played, maybe because I suck at Halo?(not big time, just compared to the regulars).ReservoirAngel said:
Thing is I could pick up a game of CoD and instantly be good, positive Kill/ Death ratio and everything, any other Multi player game, I have to practice for a week.
Same; I've been playing a good amount of DOD:S recently. I'm an expert at snap-shooting rifle grenades into the small windows that snipers shoot from. :-DViper1265 said:
Honorable mention to a few Source mods, and some Half-Life mods: Firearms: Source and Insurgency for games that I believe do Modern Warfare better than Modern Warfare, and The Specialists, Goldeneye: Source and Dystopia for fast-paced action.
Plan Of Attack was very fun, but it hasn't seen a release since 2005; there's a new team that's recently taken over from the original devs though, so maybe we'll see something soon.
Halo 2 is my favorite multiplayer game of all time. Overall all I love the multiplayer in all the Halo games have, Halo 3 was the weakest but even that was really good
Quake and Enemy Territory are not on the list, yet Halo/CS/TF2 are.
What an unequivocal failure. : \

Although the latest CoD games suck, CoD2 was the highlight of the series. Still play it fairly regularly.
None of the above.
For the past 6 years the only multiplayer FPS I've played a lot (besides Left 4 Dead, and that's more cooperative) is Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45. It's an intense, in-depth, team-based tactical shooter developed by a mod team turned professional developers.
Besides that, I just don't like multiplayer shooters, generally. Too many cheaters, too many people who play way too much and know all the glitch spots, and too much trashtalking. I enjoyed Call of Duty back in its early days (COD1's expansion, United Offensive, was the peak of the series), but now... bleh.

Brink is a sequel to Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, as far as gameplay/design is concerned. A lot of elements, however, are radically different.JochemDude said:
ET:QW had vehicles/asymmetrical teams, and Wofl:ET was far less linear.
All are pretty great games, in my opinion.
i do love FPS's but they get kinda stale (not bashing any FPS)
my favs are counter-strike, Halo, BattleField, and Team fortress 2.
i enjoy take long breaks between each game, almost like a rotation.
