Call of Duty 4 + Team Fortress 2 covers all PC online multiplayer FPS needs.

I know the CS fans will kill me for this, but CoD4 is a better realistic combat FPS than CS or CS:S are.


Is COD4 really better than CS:S? I heard there was quite a few amount of luck involved in COD4(which would automatically put it below Counter-Strike), and not as much skill. But I can't comment on it, I only played COD4 a bit and never played CS:S.

As for FPS with classes, Quake Wars: Enemy Territory is far deeper than TF2. You don't even need to kill in QW:ET to be useful (this applies to every class except Soldier/Aggressor).

@Deegan: Try RTCW: Enemy Territory, it's free and it's really good. After you tried it, if you want a deeper Enemy Territory, you can buy the retail version 'Quake Wars: Enemy Territory' for only $20 on Steam or Retail.


There's very little luck other than airstrikes, and you only get those if you were good enough to get kills without dying in the first place.  The air strikes add a lot of chaos to the game and it keeps it fun.   Most of CoD4 is pure skill.

Quake Wars is more complex than TF2. That doesn't make it deeper.  It has nowhere near the balance the TF2 classes have.
