Team Fortress 2: Best FPS of the 7th Gen (in my personal opinion)

I agree, out of the box, Team Fortress 2 was nothing impressive, but it still had a great foundation for itself.   Over time, the PC version of the game got better and better.

* Free-to-play but is never pay-to-win

* Distinct style of visuals, sound and character personalities

* Very balanced gameplay; Each class has specific strengths and weaknesses (no lethality-at-all-ranges like COD)

* Requires strong teamwork and cooperation skills in order to win games

* Variety of gameplay modes and maps.  Also, a lot of user created content you can find.

* Accessible to newer and casual players, but there are also competitve avenues to pursue

* The developers consistently update the game and add more content every few months

Halo3. 

i thought that was a hat trading game :3

I really enjoyed Halo 3.  But playing it now, it certainly has gotten a bit old and other Halo games have unfortunately made it obsolete.

That's what happens when you whore out games too much.  Had they made TF3 and TF4 this gen, I wouldn't be praising TF2 so much.

Ubisoft has made far too many ASScreed games. This in no way makes AC II a worse game. 

Agreed. It's absolutely one of my favourite shooters of all time.

The overall design is just superb, and the characters are completely unforgettable. It's funny how a multiplayer game has better writing than most singleplayer games. :P

Halo Reach was my favourite of the gen.

Cool opinion. Suits your blog wellMonsieurX

This response is overused.

Torn between a few myself:

Halo 3

Crysis

F.E.A.R.

Half-Life 2: Episode 2

BioShock Infinite

These are all my favorites of this gen.  Hard to pick one since they're all great for different reasons.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 was my multiplayer FPS of the gen. I really started to hate TF2 after the massive change that came with randomized weapon drops. Just turned into something else entirely. Loved, loved, loved it before the change, and I might have agreed with you, tbh. Battlefield 3 was a let down in some ways (still my most played FPS of the gen), but the Battlefield series in general is nothing if not consistent in it's epic multiplayer matches that test skill as much as they do map knowledge and weapon and equipment knowledge.

Multiplayer wise, yea, easily. Only hipsters would claim otherwise.

That's a pretty dumb assumption.

i think killzone 2 was better. mostly it was the weight of the controls that led to the entire experience feel so authentic, combined with a great online mode, a nice campaign, and some great graphics.Waltermoney

Too bad it's right.

Though I'm a console gamer, I've got to give it to the hermits: TF2 is probably the only game on the PC that's worth playing and that's only because the console versions of TF2 aren't supported and have a dead community. Good thing we don't need a $900 GPU to run the game, though. The game runs very well on my i5-3570k with and AMD 7770.XboxFails

Yeah, I hear this often.  Lots of people I know who HATE military shooters and the like praise TF2 for its emphasis on strategic play.

And yes, you dont need a strong PC to run tf2.

No, it's not "right" at all. As I said earlier, I love TF2. But saying only Hipsters don't enjoy it is closed-minded and downright moronic. God forbid that someone enjoys something else. :roll:

Only game I really play these days lol

You should really give the new thread button a break.

Legit answer?  That's the only game he talks about what did you expect him to answer with?

If it's not STALKER he'll go off about Deus Ex or Metro.

Nowhere in my post did it say I intended on teaching anyone anything.  It simply says all you ever talk about are three games, none of which are as great as you say they are.

TL;DR- you're more annoying than the damn monkeys in System Shock 2.  Quit being a damn monkey.
