CoD WaW is an OK at best multiplayer format while CoD4 is definitely better though. TF2 sits atop for me. But honestly any valve game is going to be one of the best online out there.

It depends on what setting you want really.. WaW has more multiplayer modes and also has co op, making it have more features. I'd say most people still play cod4 because of its modern day setting

For me it's Counter Strike:Source. Finally got it again today. I've never played TF2, even though I bought it. For some reason it won't work, I tryed contacting valve but no help.

Either L4D or SWAT 4 since they both have co-op and are dynamic.

I can't believe people still play trial and error games like RTS or CS or Crysis

I find it interesting that the graphics is the first thing on your list of why WAW is the best multiplayer shooter.

Kaelken

I can't believe it..the nerve on some people >_> playing other types of games, they should all just play FPS CO-OP games since they are the future, developers should concentrate more on FPS games, because we don't get enough of them, 2 or 3 FPS games per year are far from enough.

Also people that play games that they like or games that are not FPS should be banned from the internet.

/sarcasm

CoD 4, GRID, TMUF, CS, CS: S, TF 2, CoH, WiC, Crysis -the original one, not Wars, I like the multiplayer part of the first one a lot more.

TF2- It's pretty hard to go it alone in this game. I usually see a fair amount of team work in this game.

How is CS "trial and error"? I really enjoy L4D but I don't think that it is the best online game, in fact I don't think any coop game could be the best. Online gaming is all about competition and with coop you just don't get that. CSS is easily the best online game.

Online gaming is about fun, games are funner with more people. If online gaming was about competition, I would of stopped gaming years ago.

As far as stat tracking goes games like Quake Wars, BF2 & Unreal Tournament 3 have great MP.

Day of Defeat: Source is fantastic too.

Probably TF2. It's a good game with a good community, and I don't see nearly as many insults flying around as I do in CSS.

It's certainly Counter-Strike: Source. TF2 is a bit lopsided at the moment, where half the classes or so are updated and the other half aren't. There's also many less players.

L4D. It's the first online shooter that requires real teamwork and discourages the typical exploits found in most others.

I said "real" teamwork. Not just teamwork. Sure, many games make teamwork useful, but not necessarily require it. Some who camp out online 24/7 can still get by ignoring much of the team.

There's several online shooters that require real teamwork that predate L4D. Especially if you play competitively. I *might* see where you're coming from if you've only pubbed your entire life.

It really does require real teamwork, but sometimes your team really sucks...

I'm not really sure which one is the "best", but in my opinion Team Fortress 2 is the most fun. Left4Dead can also be fun with a good group of people, but it gets repetitive pretty quickly.

Either TF2 CS or Gears Of War 1 for me. I know people are going to make fun of Gears Of War but I loved the online in the first one. The second one is a dead lost.

At the moment = Team Fortress 2

My favorite old school online shooter = Quake1 and Tribes

Counterstrike Source, Left4Dead, Unreal2k4, Call Of Duty1 and Jedi Knight games get a shoutout to.

No game is as fun as TF2 though imo. Its got just a great community, the best updates, best gameplay and a very high fun factor. Not to mention tons of user made levels,etc.. What can i say, ive played most online FPS over the years and TF2 atm is hands down the best for me personally. I love games where you have to work as a team.

star wars battlefront 2

when playing on huge servers with noobs its boring,

but if you play on a private server with people who are pros it is incredibly fun

you can just get better and better in swbf2, there is really no limit

tf2 is ok too, but certain things can get incredibly annoying, like too many spies turrets or pyros

crysis wars is another good one

you can play it in many different styles, although sadly speed mode seems to be overpowered in multiplayer

tie between TF2 and Counter Strike - TF2 is arcadey, cartoony, straight-up deathmatch gameplay, unrivalled in how much fun it delivers, but CS:S is just so awesome. I mean, killing an opponent, no matter how, means that they STAY DOWN MOTHER******. I just find that incredibly satisfying, as compared to other shooters where they're just allowed to respawn, without having to adapt to anything to stay alive.

It sickens me that all the best only games are only shooters and RTS games, mostly shooters. Are you telling me there are no fighting games that are popular on the PC? :( And the only games that seems to have melee combat at all are RPGs, which don't have anything on true hack and slashers like Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry. Consoles are being over flooded with PC games like shooters, when will the PC get hack 'n' slashers and fighters?

Swat 4 requires real teamwork to finish a mission. You can go at it alone, but you're chances of success are close to nothing. That game was released several years before L4D.

CS:S. While I had played CS from early versions, I lost interest in it when 1.6 came along (1.5 best version IMO).
