First Person Shooters

[iiiprimeiii]

just wanted some feedback from people about what the best first person shooter games are that are out right now. i have just recently started out playing pc games and wanted some feedback. also any good football games.

[Jamie Nixx]

Right now the best has to be Call of Duty 4, Crysis amd Half Life 2 Ep 2.

For past games check out Half Life 1 and 2, Episode 1 and Call of Duty 1 and 2.

Call of Juarez is an awesome FPS as well.

Elder Scrolls Oblivion is brilliant as well.

When you say football, do you mean American football or soccer? us Brits call soccer, football (the way its meant to be :D)

New fps games that I like are Call of Duty 4, and Crysis.

My favorite all time is Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

Other great older last generation games are:
Call of Duty UO
Soldier of Fortune II
Medal of Honor

I enjoy the classics - Deus Ex, Halo, System Shock 2. :D

Bioshock is much more modern, and is very good.

For online multiplayer, you can't really go wrong with CounterStrike:Source and Team Fortress 2.

[iiiprimeiii]

ooooo i remember playing counterstrike on xbox live that was fun. and by football i mean american football not soccer. i reall like the nfl street games but not madden. the gameplay in madden games seems really slow to me. its like if youre running the ball it is is slow-mo. but i havent played 07 or 08 so maybe it is better. what is bioshock???? pretty sweet??? online play??

DEUS EX! man i used to be so obsessed with that game since it came out i was like 10 when i started playing it lol. it is the greatest most epic games created ever hands down. it was inspired by god. and then the half life series is secondly epic. and halo of course. the new medal of honor is really good, area 51, many more

Bioshock is one of the most recent FPS games, and is considered the next step for FPS games. I recommend you check it out. :)

Oh, and Deus Ex is still one of my favourite games - I love playing through and trying to do/get everything. :D

[JasonG]

I still play Call of Duty United Offensive online on a weekly basis.

[Jamie Nixx]

CoD 2 online is the best online game EVER :D

[RickyTick]

To be honest, I got a little bored with Bioshock. There's a new patch out that changes a lot of the weapons and gameplay, and fixes the bugs. I'll probably download it and try it again. Oh, and there is no online multiplayer.

For online multiplayer, its hard to beat any of the Call of Duty games. The clan I'm in is moving from COD-UO to COD4. COD2 just never seemed to do it for me. Sorry Jamie.

[Jamie Nixx]

I sold Bioshock within 2 hours of playing it, the most overated game in history it sucked big time.

Just finished a CoD2 binge, OMG that was intense haha :D

[iiiprimeiii]

so how sweet is the new half life??? i have only played the first one and it was amazing. graffics are great and fun game. does anyone play unreal tournament any more online??? i used to play that back in the day and it was pretty fun........

[Jamie Nixx]

All the Half Life games are just :eek: not one of them has ever let me down.

I have never played UT, might have to, i hear good things.

[The Wise Monkey]

At my university, I am in charge of organising LAN sessions for people to attend, and we still play UT and CS 1.6 because the computers we are allowed to use are so bad... XD

[Tomo]

I'm a UT04 regular, play some 99, but haven't got UT3 yet. UT04 is just amazing:D

[GFlash]

i like Battlefiled 2 battlefield 2142 COD4 Crysis

[jonm888]

if you're new to the Half Life's i recommend buying Orange Box.

[iiiprimeiii]

i got it for christmas.....:D :D all i have played before that was half life on xbox and that game was awesome. the graphics are great.:eek: :eek:

[The Wise Monkey]

Portal is really fun - probably my favourite out of the Orange Box. Apart from TF2 of course, that it just pure awesomeness. :D

[RickyTick]

I just loaded the Orange Box on my pc last night. I can't wait to start trying them out. Sounds like fun.

[iiiprimeiii]

Portal is really fun - probably my favourite out of the Orange Box. Apart from TF2 of course, that it just pure awesomeness. :D

so u like those more than half life games on there????

[The Wise Monkey]

Definitely - I've never been a huge fan of Half Life as it is, but Portal is a great example of a game fulfilling a concept perfectly. It is so simple, yet very complicated at the same time. I dunno, I just appreciate that more than episodes 1&2. :D

[iiiprimeiii]

so i have not played orange box yet since i am still saving up a few more bucks to buy all my parts at once..... about 2-3 more weeeks!!!! but all are the games on orange box the full entire game???? if so that was an amazing deal for like 45 bucks. i also got an xbox360 controller and crysis for christmas. i really cant wait to play that one. do i have to do anything special or can i just plug my 360 contr. in and play??

As Jason said, the Xbox 360 controller is backwards compatible with Windows out of the box (both are MS products)

The Orange box is awesome, you get Half Life 2, Ep1 and Ep2, Portal and Team Fortress.

Definately worth the money.
