A good FPS

[Tsaba]

I believe they have it on the 360 market place.... just one of the FPS's that makes you wonder where the hell the sequel is.

My favorite fps is still Red Faction 2, the single player is interesting and challenging, controls are solid, and the fact that you can mess with the multiplayer bots ai (a bit, don't expect too much), makes them an interesting wildcard to throw in the mix.

Also, I know this brands me a traitor, but Shadowrun is pretty fun if you think of it like a weird counterstrike mod, has no single player and you can find it for cheap, I bought a copy for pc and one for xbox for $3 combined.

Borderlands 2. Tons of guns. Fast and fun gameplay. Crazy boss fights. Great art style. Pure, chaotic, awesome, fun!

Also, the story is surprisingly good.

Mass Effect
Unreal Tournament 2004
Deus Ex
Killing Floor
Cryostasis
Bioshock
Alpha Protocol
Spec Ops: the Line (military shooter, but the more you play it, the better it gets)

But my personal favorite is Condemned: Criminal Origins

Have you even looked before you posted?

I'd strongly recommend The Darkness II for story and general atmosphere (don't buy it at full price though; it's short as hell) and Borderlands 2 for fun and replayability.

I just picked up Crysis 2 (for free!!!), and I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far. The tactical possibilities opened up by the different functions of your Nanosuit add an interesting extra dimension. It doesn't feel quite as "on rails" as many other shooters do.

While im sure its been said half a dozen times, Bulletstorm. Its possibly my favorite FPS of all time. That or S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Both are really great, and at this point in time, probably really cheap. Cant go wrong either way.

If you want single player, excellent stories, I recommend:

Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Bioshock
Deus Ex (the original game, quite old and "boxy" graphics, but excellent story)

 

[Sight Unseen]

Bioshock or the upcoming Bioshock: Infinite
Team Fortress2 (it's free!)
Rage (it's a so so game but the enemy AI is really good and the gunplay is fun)
I've heard good things about Metro 2033 but haven't played it yet.

Borderlands 1/2
Resistance Trilogy

Sanctum is pretty good. Poorly optimized for my computer but it blends tower defense and fps really nicely.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good FPS game? It can be on any console or pc.

Any console?

GoldenEye 007 or Perfect Dark on the N64.

Those were great games. Used to play 4 player multi with my brother and neighbours back in the day. Good times.

So I've got a hankering to play an FPS game yet I don't want to play another bland military shooter.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good FPS game? It can be on any console or pc.

If you have not played anything in the FEAR series, I can recommend the original and 2. The expansions to the first are OK, I don't know about the expansion to the second or anything about the third.

The first is tops, but the second is not all that bad. Maybe I was able to totally overlooking whatever shortcomings it may have had because I paid about three dollars for it during a Steam sale. As for the first, it was the first game I played with my first custom PC, so I may have overly fond memories of that as well.

I played the first and it was great. It had an amazing atmosphere throughout. I'll have to pick up the second next time I see a sale.

Halo and Crysis games are pretty good. The Fear games are also surprisingly fun.

If you don't mind some RPG stuff in the mix, then I'd recommend Borderlands or Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

 

[Slayer_2]

Not a FPS, but a shooter. Spec Ops: The Line has mediocre gameplay, but the story is really gripping. I'd recommend it if you find it cheap.

The Resistance games are by far the best FPS games I have played in a long time.
