i found halo 3 kind of disappointing, but i still prefer it to bioshock, cod4, and hl2

Where's Uncharted?  It's not 1st person but let's put it up there anyways to avoid being called biased. 

Put up Bioshock too because that's most likely what I'm voting for.

wait, i didn't notice portal up there -- it doesn't belong up there, but it's still better than halo 3

lol CoD4. I played some missions. I dont get the luv. The multiplayer doesnt sound that different from anything ive seen anywhere else. To channel the great evilbore gods, 'meh'

MAF KNOWS WHAT'S GOOD.

All these other games aren't NEARLY as innovative as Portal. There's no fucking QUESTION what the best fps of the year is. Forget year, Portal is the best fps in a DECADE.
Title: Re: FPS SHODOWN -2007-
Post by: MrAngryFace on December 03, 2007, 02:04:49 AM
I dunno if i'd argue innovation so much as Portal simply being a great little game.

Portal isn't even a shooter though.   Uncharted kinda sucks but it probably belongs more on the list than Portal.

Has anyone played ALL of those? jeez, i like shooters but the number of good ones (and the hardware you need to play 'em all) this year is just daunting. I still haven't finished Bioshock ffs, and have barely touched the MP in most of the games I have finished. Also, I'd have thought Rainbow Six: Vegas would be worth a few 3rd place votes if it were on the list...and 3rd place votes existed...

Sorry guys, I had to reset all the votes...so please vote again!  The poll got fucked up when I added some more titles, dunno why.   ???

Cormac, didn't Vegas come out last year?

Bioshock was my favorite single player FPS experience, and Halo 3 has been my favorite in multi.  But as I prefer multi to single player in FPS games, Halo 3 gets my vote.

Shadowrun my personal multiplayer fps goty for me. Anyone who disses this game is a fucking sheep who hasnt spent more than 5 minutes with the game, that is, if they even tried it at all. Playing other team fps after getting into the races and customizables spells combos and tech tools make other games feel distinguished mentally-challenged.

First Post.

Halo 3 was probably the best pure shooter, Bioshock probably comes in second.  The last two levels in Halo 3 were pretty disappointing but the rest was pretty solid.  Didn't finish MP3 or Orange Box (360 shit the bed before I even had a chance to play it).  CoD4 is the best multiplayer shooter I've played in ages, I was never a big Halo guy to begin with.  My 360 probably died because of that game, I would play 3-4 hours at a time and never even realized where the time had gone.  I didn't really like what I played of the single player portion of the game.

yeah that was pretty exciting (not as disturbing as Silent Hill 2 though), just passed that bit last night.

gotta get all the achievements. got the dog one last night :rock

Is Veteran tough?

I honestly look at my gamerscore and cry  :'( Ive only got 2000 points  :'( well I suppose I am still a relatively new 360 owner, but I still find my score depressing.

And I suck at Geometry Wars  :'( :'( :'( :'(

sorry to derail  :'( :'( :'( :'( I always talk about unrelated games in threads  :'( :'( :'(
