Good FPS

[Verto]

Return to Castle Wolfenstein!

[Frankychan]

Counterstrike!

You can be either Counterterrorist or Terrorist forces. And the multiplay is HUGE! Gforce2 should suffice for this game.

I love playing it, but I'm outta the loop.

Nice seeing ya again Tass.

Deus Ex is a FPS style game, and so much more!
Definately recommended, even if it isn't as fast-paced as the others mentioned.

Only FPS I've ever enjoyed to any extent is Morrowind, and thats only if one even classes MW as an FPS.

Tass,

don't listen to DG people. They don't understand fascist games. Try MoH:AA or BF1942. SOF, UT3K, Q3, SS3, etc. are was of time.

[Kropotkin]

Any FPS has to have enemies screaming "Mein leben!" when they get shot to be any good.

Naaah... the "must have" taunt is "Hah, Französischen Schuelerin schiessen besser!"

These are the FPSes for the PC that I have and which I really enjoy playing.

System Shock 2 (ahead of its time in 1998, still an amazing game right now, with a solid plot and a surprising amount of philosophy behind it)

Thief (by the same 66%-female development team that made System Shock 1, this game is the first FPS I've seen where charging in with your weapons bristling is a surefire way of getting yourself killed. Harder mission levels actually debar you from killing anybody)

Deus Ex (this game is currently unchallenged for plot diversity and story "threads". Whether you join your brother in an all out defense, or choose to hide in the closet until the danger's over... no other game has this level of player options.)

Alien vs Predator (the original has a very enjoyable blend of three different species, each of which has entirely different attack capabilities and playing styles. The sequel, by Monolith, is considerably different and in my opinion at least, not as good.)

Honorable mentions:

Half-Life (very atmospheric and groundbreaking in its day. Features a few irritating jumpy bits that no FPS should currently possess, but the pacing is excellent and the alien enemies are surprisingly enjoyable to fight)

Counterstrike (this is very enjoyable against human opponents, so long as you all agree not to jump like kangaroos).

Undying (the game itself is somewhat linear, but the weapons are good fun and the spell system is surprisingly good. The enemies are challenging and (provided you play it alone in the dark) the game is terrifying at times.)

Serious Sam (unpretentious high-octane shoot'em up action.)

[DrSpike]

Wow, you play TBS and FPS.........some catch.

Yes this game is a classic... I have the regular version, but there is a gold version with extra levels (such as breaking into the thieves guild!).. I never got the cutscenes cos I got it from a Twilight CD

I am wondering though, where I can get that gold edition, and Thief2, with graphics that are just the same but with a whole lot better AI I heard...

Btw they're working on a Thief 3... I am eagerly awaiting it!

[Alinestra Covelia]

Yeah, I play TBSes and FPSes and I'm a girl. Roc's teeth, roc's teeth.

Thief Gold is good for the extra missions, but bad for the plot, which undergoes some slowing down with the extras (they are inserted into the mid game, and you lose a lot of the high-intensity, dramatic story development).

The level in the abandoned cathedral literally had me crying with relief. I can't give away too much here, but I was hiding in a room from something that was moving (jingly jangly) outside in the corridor. It came to my door, and opened it, and JUST BY LUCK the door opened inwards, shielding me from its view. It paced around, looking for me and listening for any further noise, before finally turning on its heel and shutting the door behind it.

My gf says the words "Quake", "Civ" and "Warcraft" with an expression usually seen on someone who has stepped in a rather large steaming pile of poo.

I can relate to that.

The only good Hammer Haunt is a dead Hammer Haunt.

In single player games, of course.
