are portal and Mirrors Edge really FPSes?  i find them more of a Platformer (Mirror's Edge) and a Puzzler (Portal)

i don't they're "Shooters" ya know?


You're always in first person, and almost always have a gun... which you shoot with, constantly. There, that's my justification :p

It's not combat focused as real first-person shooters.

Cool. Fallout 3 isn't as RPG focused as a lot of other RPG's, so everyone better scratch that one off their list!



not in order

1. Goldeneye

2. Half-Life 2

3. Killzone

4. COD 4

5. COD: WAW

6. Doom 2

7. Medal of Honor 2

8. Metroid Prime 3

9. Team Fortress

10. Wolfenstein 3d



Damn, I was just about to start with a multiplayer game (Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory). Anyway, my list is probably something like this:

1. Crysis
2. Quake II
3. Wolfenstein 3D
4. Doom
5. Call of Duty
6. Far Cry
7. Return to Castle Wolfenstein
8. Red Faction
9. Half-Life
10. Doom 3

And no, I don't consider Deus Ex a first-person shooter, it's more of an RPG to me. Also, while probably more like a simulator, I'd probably list Operation Flashpoint here had I played it more (I'm just beginning). And then there's tons of great games I haven't played.

And please note that first-person shooters aren't exactly my favorite genre (well, I do love Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, probably so much that it would be in my top 10 of all games of all time, and it would be pretty high on that list).
