I dont know who made this list, but clearly he doesnt know shit.

Are light gun games even considered FPS's? House of the Dead and Virtua Cop I think belong in a different category.

Halo? lol, that game is crap. Doom doesn't hold up very well either by today's standards.


Oh, and Bioshock should be #1.

Oh? Ok, some questionable choices, but what exactly would you put up there? And what makes your list more credible? Just curious is all..
Same questions to you pkcRAISTLIN..

IMO, the top two are well deserved to be up there. I'd knock Halo off the third spot though, but not too far down. For a console FPS, it was one of the best available.

Actually, the top 3 are pretty accurate. Maybe they aren't representative of best games in the genre in terms of quality, but in terms of influence, they definitely deserve their spots. Halo 3 generated more money than a summer blockbuster movie. Maybe it wasn't very good, but its insanely popular, and maybe that it was the list creator was going for...?

youre right, but i still doubt halo's "influence" on the rest of the genre. however when i think of "top" lists i think of quality and not necessarily the influence.

well, to be fair i havent played nearly enough console shooters to make a definitive list, however i could make a fairly good PC one.

but its ridiculous to include light-gun games in a FIRST PERSON shooters list. they are a completely different genre.

other games i would remove

serious sam
halo
whilst quake was the very first entirely 3d shooter ever, quake 3 is a much better game, and CoD4 is a much better game than the original CoD.
duke nukem
crysis

dark forces should be there somewhere too.

and which game is tom clancy rainbow six? do they mean rogue spear?

I think they're just trying to avoid having sequels in the same list, which is pretty ridiculous considering the differences between some of them.
