Board 8 > Your top 10 FPS games of this generation.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't really play the genre, so like I'm kinda interested to see what people consider to be the top shooters of this gen and like what makes each of em unique or different from the rest.

I mean I have a few pals who think all fighting games are the same when they're not.

Also what FPS games are you looking forward to? Right now on TV I see an Ad for Ghost Recon and I've seen plenty of Black Ops II ads.

Never said they were fact, doesn't mean they aren't valid and you can just write them off by saying "lol opinion".

1. Fallout: New Vegas
2. Deus Ex: Human Revolution
3. Fallout 3
4. Bioshock
5. Call of Duty 4
6. Borderlands

Not that big on multiplayer shooters, and I don't have a PS3/Gaming quality PC, so my list is pretty limited. There's some other stuff that I enjoyed a little bit, but not really enough to put on a list (Battlefield 3, Fear.)

Oh, and really looking forward to Bioshock Infinite. Not much else as of yet.

SuperNiceDog won the Guru contest. Good job.

I recommend CoD4, but I didn't play anymore after that.

Halo wise, I'd recommend all of them, although I have nostalgia filters on 1. Halo: Reach is actually a great start, since it takes place before 1. ODST can be safely skipped.

L4D2 is also great if you're okay with playing online. Same goes for TF2.

Bioshock is amazing. I never played 2.

Other than that, I'm drawing blanks.

--
I may laugh at my own jokes, but I don't dare laugh at SuperNiceDog!

1. Far Cry 2
2. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
3. Rainbow Six Vegas 2
4. Halo 3
5. Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
6. BioShock
7. Borderlands
8. Call of Duty: Black Ops
9. Team Fortress 2
10. The Darkness

I don't consider Portal/2 to be FPS games, more like first person puzzle.....with a puzzle gun.

So since November 2005 when 360 hit I assume, hmmm

Duke Nukem Forever

TF2

Rage
...

F.E.A.R. hit in Oct. 2005 a month before 360, that was good.

I'm an oldschool FPS guy, haven't really dug many FPSs lately.

One Piece: Pirates with style!

Well I dumped a s***-ton of time in Halo: Reach so that might be my #1.

Hold my money, Pockets too heavy,
Ninja Turtle Swag, Bebop Rocksteady

haven't even played that many FPS's this generation

I think if I include rail shooters I can do this!

let's try!


Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Fallout 3
Bioshock
Duke Nukem Forever
Portal 2
Borderlands
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
Portal
Goldeneye 007
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
---------------------------------------------------------Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
Rainbow Six: Vegas


okay so I played 12. I guess I could removed both rail shooters to make it 10!

I'm not sure if it'll qualify as an FPS or not, but Dishonored looks really promising. Also Borderlands 2.

So three FPSes I'm interested, I guess.

I haven't really heard that many good things about the Riddick sequel. The original was certainly cool, though!

I just didn't include it for the sake of variety. I would probably put it either right before or after Borderlands. I also forgot about Metroid Prime 3, which I think I would put right after BioShock

Crap, I forgot about Dark Athena as well. New list, with more thought and not caring about variety:

1. Far Cry 2
2. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
3. Rainbow Six Vegas 2
4. Halo 3
5. Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
6. BioShock
7. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
8. Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena
9. Borderlands
10. Rainbow Six Vegas

Dark Athena was awesome. Not as good as the first one, but it also contains an updated version of the first one with it, so yay that.

I didn't include Half-Life 2 because I didn't think that it was this gen. I don't feel like altering my list even more, so just know that it would make it on there

I definitely wouldn't call FO3/NV or Deus Ex FPS' (Borderlands is kind of iffy too but I guess I can see it). Unless we're using the barebones definition of FPS.

Anyway, TF2 and HL2+Episodes are great answers here.

Fallout/NV I'll give you, maybe Deus Ex(there are other options besides shooting, but strictly going that route opens up so many problems in what is and isn't considered an FPS) but Borderlands is absolutely one, or at the least an FPS/RPG hybrid.
