Yet another crappy list.

Halo is pretty good, I'd give it an 8/10. However there are a lot of 9/10 games that are ranked lower then it on either list.

I would say the top 3 are spot on.

I can't believe that Deus Ex isn't on that list.
I also really enjoyed 13 on the playstation/xbox (the cartoony one) Although I think I will prob be in the minority on that one.
I also had lots of fun on Soldier of Fortune!

ENJOY!!

halo fucking blows. i never understood how people can get so into it. crysis is fucking awful. farcry 1 was alright, 2 was just boring as shit after fully playing it. Medal of Honor deserves its place much higher, the first two PC versions (AA,SH) were golden masterpieces, online was outstanding. Battlefield 1 for PC had fucking AWFUL ballistics, sucked cock.

i'll admit i'm not good but then again i'm not good at counter-strike either and i find that game fun as hell. guess it's just preference, it just seems so over-rated to me. but at the same time, those who think halo is great might think counter-strike is shit and viceversa

This. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault was a true masterpiece, and so unsung.

What about mods? Action Quake 2 is far and away better than anything on this list.

WTF is Halo doing that high up? It's a quality game, sure, but nothing spectacular or deserving of special merit, what did it do that hadn't been done 50 times before already?

Also, what's it based on? Single player campaign? Or Multiplayer? Two entirely different experiences to be had. I think single-player FPS campaigns are a waste of disk-space, personally.

Unfortunately, this is what happens when magazines start hiring people out of school, those idiots have spent so much time doing their homework, how the FUCK are they supposed to know what a good game is?

Originally posted by Domesticated Yeah what a joke. UT had revolutionary graphics and was one of the first games do to big team based games with lots of people. The graphics, gameplay and stability of the engine were great at the time and still run beautifully, even on XP. What a crock of shit - UT should be top ten for sure.

Agreed.

I've not played some of the FPS games on the list, so can't really offer any educated opinion, but UT should have been a little higher on that list. Halo shouldn't even be Top 10. Counter-Strike should be top 5, and Deus Ex was pretty good as well.

Serious Sam was shite.

I'm hearing a bunch of complaints, but if you made your own top 25 list you'd be shot down just as fast.

Well, to begin with, intelligent people wouldn't attempt to make a top TWENTY-FIVE list for a genre with 10 stand-out titles if it's lucky. An FPS is an FPS, very few stand out enough to actually be placed in any form of ranking after top 5, let alone 25.

Secondly, it's important that when making a top X list for a genre, that the games you list are actually members of said genre. Sorry, House of the Dead is NOT an FPS, it's a First-person rail-shooter.

Finally, it's also important to know whether they are comparing single-player campaign, or multi-player or the overall opinion of both combined. They are two entirely different worlds, so I would say you have to choose either-or.

In short, the entire premise of the list is flawed, and thus the list is flawed as a result.

Yeah, I think "top" lists are pretty pointless. You can have a favorite game, second favorite and such, but beyond that it stops making sense.

And they are never consistent. If somebody were to ask me to name my Top 5 games today, then asked again in a month, chances are the list would change.
