my favorite would be operation Flashpoint....but I recognize that the game had many flaws when it was released so I would say either the Half Life games...or Dues Ex.

time-splitters 4 it was multiplayer madnesssmallcaplegend

TIIIIIIME TO SPLIT!!!!

No really TS was really fun but not the best. IMO the best is between HL2 and UT2004. ANd I still can't understand the Halo hype even if I played the 2 games

I liked the Quake Series, and Duke Nukem 3D. Now it's Halo 3 and Rainbow Six.

I never was big on UT or CS

It's a toss-up between GoldenEye and Unreal Tournament.Slashkice

??? How does GoldenEye get considered to be great? It was just the first console shooter that didnt suck. Halo was the first console shooter that was AAA even by pc standards.

i hate when people say this because the average person who says halo is the best has played all the so called top shooters including cod, BF, UT and more so why does liking halo mean its teh only game you have played dosent it come down to opinion.

The thing is i think people cant handle that even with all those other games out there people perfer to play halo

halo is garbage by pc standards, dont bother bringing it up

goldeneye was better than halo, halo is popular because its designed for people who suck,EVERYONE can get good at halo in a matter of minutes, it then becomes enjoyable.. any other company could do this same thing, the difference is, right now those company fps's are actually good

LOL, ya that is why people like Halo. Halo is not garbage by pc standards, GoldenEye certainly is. People still play Halo for the pc, do you think anybody would have even bothered with GoldenEye on pc? Think a little bit.

It outscored every Halo game, is a classic, and pretty much revolutionized FPS' on consoles.

It was garbage compared to the pc games of the time. Halo also outscored GoldenEye on average 97-96, check out metacritic.com.

yes, people play halo on -xbox- because its extremely easy to play, thus everyoen can enjoy it.. what didnt u understand? its an overall mediocre game compared to any pc fps

goldeneye outscored halo3 and halo1.. the halo2 rating was biased (its not actually better than halo3, the rating was soo not deserving, going off of ign numbers)

i dont remember anyone trying to compare a n64 game to a pc game, also.. goldeneye was never released on the pc, it was only on the n64.. why would it be on the pc?


Rare's 3D first-person shooter take on the lucrative James Bond 007 franchise could be described as a game that was truly worth the wait. The often- delayed title was once shrugged off as vaporware, but when it finally arrived in 1997 it delivered console gamers something that only PC owners had enjoyed previously: a remarkably fun, innovative, intuitively controlled shooter complete with pretty graphics and an outstanding multiplayer mode to boot. The title went from sleeper hit to one of Nintendo 64's biggest success stories in no time, and continued to sell throughout the console's entire lifespan. Even today, it remains a benchmark for console first-person shooters and serves as an inspiration for developers.

in 1998, cs/half life.. and unreal tournament were around, both of those are still to this day, better fps than halo.,.for its time, goldeneye had AMAZING graphics for a console, it WAS a revolutionary console shooter, halo isnt revoloutionary.. again NO ONE COMPARES PC SHOOTERS TO N64.. unlike halo, goldeneye wasnt overrated so omeone had problems embracing it, it was a fun multiplayer game.. halo on the other hand, gets more credit than its worth, thus resulting in MASSIVE amounts of haters displeased with the spotlight an AVERAGE fps receives... again, people dont compare n64 games to pc games lol.. in that same respect, anyone who has even played their share of fps (on all platforms, pc included) would know better than to even compare halo to pc shooters, i mean seriously

Hi, we're on GS, not Metacritic. To say GoldenEye was trash against the PC games of it's time while saying Halo is the BEST SHOOTER EVAR is just sad. It's a classic game; end of.

Why is that sad? Did you have fun playing GoldenEye with all of the obvious patterned spawn spots? How about the clinky controls of one single joystick? Plus i did say Halo 3 did i not? Have you played Halo 3? Did Halo 3 just not score 9.5 on a scale that only increments by .5 now?

someone saying "halo" typically refers to the whole trilogy.. halo3 isnt the best shooter ever, i dont need to play it to know(the gameplay is essentially the same thing as halo2, they said it themselves), and neither is halo2, or 1 for that matter.. get over urself

You just self-owned yourself there. Go away.

Let me summarize the Halo series.

Halo - incredible game all around, shows age now but still very playable and fun

Halo 2- dissapointing single player, but very fun multiplayer with nice online aspect

Halo 3- Awesome campaign with 4 player co-op, best multiplayer in series by far, arguably best music in a video-game ever, interesting gameplay modes such as forge, its basically the perfect halo game.

Slashkice

Because you seem to hold Halo 3 on some golden pedestal, untouchable by any other game. And yes, I did have fun playing GoldenEye, thanks for asking. The controls were fine; I didn't notice them, as it should have been. No, I haven't played Halo 3. It hasn't been released yet, nor is it a great enough of a game to warrant buying a 360 solely to play it. Yes, Halo 3 did score a 9.5. How much higher do you think it would have scored on the old scale?

I dont, I said Half-Life 2 was just as good imo. But again, you dont really know how good halo 3 is, you havent played it.

oh please tell me how i just self-owned myself plz? because i find this funny, u are completely blinded

apparently me saying halo wasnt the best game ever was self-owning myself? or was it when i said that halo3 has essentially the same gameplay as halo2(which is 100% true, they kept with the same formular, apparently u dont klnow much because even ive heard them say that themself, but ooh halo has new physics, and weapons, it doesnt matter, its essentially the same gameplay.. like i said, adding a few new weapons/vehicles doesnt make a game go from 'average' to 'best in the world')

u mad?

The 3 best MULTIPLAYER shooters IMO are:

1)Operation Flashpoint

2) CS:source

3)Halo 2

Number 2 is going to be replaced by Halo 3 on Tuesday

are u mad?

why, because you havent played it. Jeff just got done giving Halo 2 on pc an average score, so obviously he likes Halo 3 better than Halo 2.

u dont get it, u dont need to play it to understand that they are retaining the same gameplay(u could ask someone thats played in the beta, the gameplay isnt that much different from halo2, aside from new weapons etc)..................................................

also, i didnt even know halo2 came out for the pc, halo2 was just reviewed because no one on the pc cares for it LOL, its not hyped up on the pc because on the pc its just another game, its nothing special

pc fps have WAYYY more players than halo, they just arent hyped up with marketing like halo is, so u would never know
