Best FPS ever?

Half-Life 1 the tram scene

Doom 2/Ultimate Doom/Half Life 1 ...I cant decide which I like most. No other FPS can I play 20 years later and still enjoy as much as I did when they were new.

majority prefer Half life 1 over 2 which I can see but Half life 2 imo was natural evolution. and have fully develop characters, unlike mustache scientists.

gunplay was better in Half life 1 but everything else HL2 done better especially last part of game.

@ghosts4ever: it did… just the hunting and crafting aspect alone was brand new and been copied on a billion games since… even your precious doom has intergraded weapon and skill upgrades inspired by farcry so laugh all you want..

I'd say Doom/Quake of old.

Cause you could mod and make whatever the hell you wanted.

Before the days of locked down $ DLC.

crafting and hunting have been in gaming long before far cry 3.

Halflife 2 definitely has shit gun-play compared to Half-life. If take it purely as an FPS, as in the mechanics of shooting, it's not great.

Episode 1 improves the combat situations greatly, but the guns themselves still feel underwhelming.

Alyx fixes this, it's shooting and guns are impeccable, if limited in scope.

Unfortunately it barely has any fire-fights and the AI has been dialled down for people new to VR.

I mean, if you're carrying a gun and are shooting things, it's an fps.

I'd say an FPA would be a first person game with no guns or weapons, just adventure, and even then it would probably better fall into another sub category like first person survival, puzzle, rpg, or strategy.

Crysis 2 for me gameplay is just so much fun with the Nanosuit powers " it gives me options" playing the game the way i want ;) + game looks sick playng it in slow motion on pc with all the explosions details etc

If Half life 2 release today. many people would consider it dumbed down version of original.

Its far easier even on hardest difficulty.

Instead, they complain Alyx is a VR gimmick.

Because they can't play it.

@ghosts4ever: what fps had that before fc3?

Apex Legends and TF2

Unreal Tournament 2004

The pinnacle of arena shooters.

N64: Golden Eye and the original Turok were ahead of their time.

A few more gens back, Halo. No question there.

Current Gen: Doom 2016>Doom Eternal by a small margin but 2016 was creepier imo

F.E.A.R.

Best enemy AI in an SP FPS that I've ever encountered. Sad that no game has come close with AI since this wonderful gem.

Multiplayer - Halo CE (original Xbox, not MCC)

Singleplayer - Fallout 3

Nothing comes close to this, as far as i'm concerned, and I've been playing lotta of them!!!!

Half-Life 2 remains my all-time favorite FPS. It was perfection from beginning to end. I have yet to find another FPS to match it.

Single player:

Half-Life 1, 2, Alyx

Halo 1, 2, 3

Bioshock

Multiplayer:

CS:GO

Halo 3

UT2004

Rust

Sea of Thieves

Early Day Z

1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007)

2. Goldeneye (1997)

3. Doom (1993)

Half-Life 1 and 2. Would love for them to get remasters on current gen consoles (don't change an ounce of gameplay or story, just update the graphics engines).
