We did the 90s, we did the 2010s, now for the grand finale; arguably the decade where the FPS genre was at its most dominant and innovative.

What first person shooter released in 2000-2009 do you think was the best, and why?

The is no one FPS in that period tbh here are ten that had an impact.

Half Life 2 - Raised the bar for story driven fps and popularized the use of physics in gameplay.

No One Lives Forever - Solid classic approach.

F.E.A.R - Introduced bullet time mechanics to the genre.

Deus Ex - Fps/RPG hybrid that takes the genre into new ground, multiple ways of tackling a task with actions having consequences later on.

Metroid Prime - Not a shooter per say but introduced the genre to new ground with its fps/adventure design.

Halo - Introduced a new template for console fps.

Team Fortress 2 - Modern template for multiplayer PvP team based fps.

Left 4 Dead - Put a new spin on team co-op.

COD 4:MW - Raised the bar for online multiplayer.

Red Faction - Introduced destructible environments and vehicles.
