Halo: Combat Evolved has the best single player capaign ever! The Silent Cartographer is probably my favorite mission in any FPS.

I just hope that when I finally play Killzone 2 I will find missions as addictive as that.

Don't just games single player against Halo:CE... especially not the Silent Cartographer. It's just not fair. Give them a chance.

I don't think we'll see another FPS single player that will be as striking as playing Halo:CE back in the day. It was a bold leap into the future of gaming... and was an amazing and engrossing story and experience to boot. I feel like even if a game was the most advanced new FPS out there (KZ2) and had an amazing story... it still wouldn't be able to hit the high that Halo:CE did back then.

I think your glasses may have become tinted pink by nostalgia. Was Halo:CE your first fps? Because to a seasoned PC player at the time the SP campaign was as unremarkable as the gameplay. Repetitive environments, a few nice set-up pieces connected by trailing canyons or corridors, alot of backtracking, lackluster overall story arc.

And the library level still gives me nightmares... that was fun for what, 2 minutes?

Duke Nukem 3D, Half-Life, Half-Life 2, System Shock 2, Deus Ex, Metroid Prime, No One Lives Forever 1 & 2, Rainbow Six: Vegas and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect say hi.

Pretty much these, plus Wolfenstein 3D, Quake 2, every Metroid Prime game made, and Shadow Warrior. Mainly because of Lo Wang.

Not sure how CoD:WaW made your list of good single campaign...
4h campaign really isn't that great...

That and veteran mode is retarded. They could have invested more and made veteran more challenging without needing grenade spam..

The sad thing is very few developers actually take the time to made hard modes different( the games that come to mind are DMC4 and Ninja Gaiden)

PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

I will miss Free Radical, and Red Faction was ok, not typical in it's time.

It does have a really good campaign for the most part if you play it on a normal difficulty. It does suffer the same problems as 4 where at the end they just throw about 1000 respawning troops at you, which is just plain stupid and really annoys me... but was still great to play through the first time on normal
