The rush of firing a rocket launcher at an oncoming helicopter.
The satisfaction of chainsaw-ing a demon in two.
The thrill of mowing down a horde of Nazis with a machine gun.
You've probably felt these adrenaline-fuelled moments before, or at least something similar. These moments in an FPS game, when done well and consistently, help to make the purest form of an FPS. There are many first-person shooters nowadays with silly regenerating health, vehicle sections, teamwork and contrived plots that stray from the real experience - killing everyone in sight, boss fights and blowing shit up. This is something you don't get to enjoy as often these days, which is such a shame - blowing a demon's entrails out of his back would be a sight to behold with our next-gen graphical capabilities.
So, my fellow Escapians - what is the purest form of the so-called FPS? Remember, I'm not asking for the best FPS ever made, just your opinion of the purest form.
