Title: Best FPS you ever played?
Post by: Tupin on June 12, 2008, 09:33:53 PM
Mine would have to be Half-Life 2, closely followed up by Team Fortress 2 and the Unreal Tournament series.

I also have to give a mention to Nerf Arena Blast, they managed to make a decent non-violent FPS using Nerf guns.  :D
(Look it up, it has a decent following.)

Team Fortress 2 without a doubt.

Half-Life 2 is pretty close there, but it's not multiplayer (except for Deathmatch, but I haven't played that for any significant amount of time).

I don't play many FPS (Mainly due to the fact THAT EACH ONE IS "M") until I started....ugh...Halo 2. But I was lost and confused. After all, I had never played a FPS other than that.

Until....

Different kinds of FPS, can't compare them all together.

For tactics, Rainbow Six.  For orginality, Bioshock.  For multiplayer, gotta be Gears of War or Unreal Tournament III

Steam games don't work that way, olol.


Also, TF2 and Portal (it's still an FPS even if it's a puzzle game) are among the best I've played...but I haven't played many FPS games in the first place.

Don't get me wrong, shooters are just as good as any other game, but I really have more fun controlling a hoard of dead dragon thingies over running around not quite aimlessly, but still running around, ducking often and throwing out a frag or two every so often.

Hell, I prefer the memorizing of button combos in most Fighting games over general shooter tactics...

I hate most RPGs, because they all have the same cliches, and I really hate most turn-based games.

This is the year 2008, not 1988. There's no need for turn-based gameplay.

You really should try Call of Duty 4, there is a decent amount of strategy involved.

I've played quite a bit of CoD 4, despite whether I wanted to or not. It just felt like another shooter to me.

And also, the dragon comment was referring to Warcraft >_>

Damn, I'm obsessed with that series.

Look, anyone can stereotype or bash a certain genre, it's not that hard.

I personally don't like games like Warcraft. But I will respect your right to play it and not stereotype it, so I would appreciate if you did the same.

Am I saying you're part of the 70% that thinks it's hysterical when someone's head flies off? No. I'm saying that there are quite a few people that are, and that's what companies that make shooters seem to make their games for. I respect your opinion. I've played quite a few shooters. Am I saying they're all horrible? No.

Gratuitous violence is not funny to me, even in an arcadey game like Painkiller where all you do is kill.

Sometimes it's just fun to ignore a story line and plow through hoards of a zombie onslaught. Other times, it's more fun to slowly sneak around stealthily and silently assassinate the bad guy to advance the story more.

If you ask me, FPS is America's video game genre. At least 70% of the best FPS games were developed in America :) I know someone will disagree, but it's obviously true ;)
Because at least 70% of America is made up of morons that laugh hysterically when someone's head flies off.
Look, anyone can stereotype or bash a certain genre, it's not that hard.

I personally don't like games like Warcraft. But I will respect your right to play it and not stereotype it, so I would appreciate if you did the same.

Am I saying you're part of the 70% that thinks it's hysterical when someone's head flies off? No. I'm saying that there are quite a few people that are, and that's what companies that make shooters seem to make their games for. I respect your opinion. I've played quite a few shooters. Am I saying they're all horrible? No.

/me leaves thread for the cause of a possible headache
;-;
Gratuitous violence is not funny to me, even in an arcadey game like Painkiller where all you do is kill.

Sometimes it's just fun to ignore a story line and plow through hoards of a zombie onslaught. Other times, it's more fun to slowly sneak around stealthily and silently assassinate the bad guy to advance the story more.
Now I'm pulled back into the thread -_-

And you're exactly correct. How an opinion is correct, I dunno, but it is. I appreciate shooters, don't get me wrong. TimeSpiltters 4 is very high on my "get this game on release date" list. But, CoD 4 is just another Halo to me. They aren't bad, but neither of them deserve game of the year (I think at least one of the Halo's got GotY...)

And I respect that you don't like CoD 4. I personally think it is much better than the sorry excuse for a third game in the trilogy, Halo 3. As far as I know, no major review sites or magazines gave Halo 3 GotY. It was either Bioshock or Call of Duty 4.

CoD 4 > Halo 3.

why?

multiple classes > 18 master chiefs.

Yes, CoD4 is very awesome.

Class based gameplay is great, even though it is more evident in TF2.

Yeah, that's somewhat of a consensus among American gamers, but in Japan, it is different.

Usually sex is censored in Western games, but violence is fine. The opposite is true in Japan. That's why we have the bloody No More Heroes and they have Doki Doki Majo Shinpan.

Yes, but you don't strip them.

You just touch and grope them.

Not the best candidate for a game to be localized.  :D

Still waiting for a sequel with online play, Ubisoft.

If you do that, you might renew my faith in you.
