Personally the Arma series were the best for me, the realism i didn't mind but the epic battles was awesome!
Wolfenstein 3D should at least get a nod.
Counter-Strike should be on here for its popularity alone. The game was released eight years ago and is STILL number one in usage on steam. Look it up, in the last 48 hours there has been twice as many people playing CS than MW2. The top two on the list are counter strike, then counter strike: source. It's a shame that the OP did not put it on the list, but the constraints of the poll system are noted.

for multiplayer, Modern Warfare 2. I may have almost always ended up throwing the controller in frustration, but its the only fps that I was constantly compelled to keep coming back to, despite my anger. Love a lot of Black Ops new features, but the actual gameplay just feels clunkier.
For singleplayer.....the original Killzone on the PS2.

Timesplitters Future Perfect. excellent single player + excellent multiplayer
Plus it has zombies AND Cortez

Hmmm. I think I am old school guy but from this list the original Half Life is not as good as Bioshock. That makes it hard to say the best FPS "ever".
Battlefield 1942 with the mod DC Final.
After that I would probably say either Bad Company 1 or 2

Yeah, '42 would be my best game, except I bought it so late that I could never find a good game online, thus I was reduced to playing against the shitty bots...MikeOfThunder said:
I would say...
For Fun: Modern Warfare 2 - Hey, the set pieces are epic, it has Ghost in it, the MP is amazingly addictive, it has Price in it and the sound track is truly amazing.
For MP: Bad Company 2 - I actually almost never 'rage' at Bad Coy at all.
For SP: Fallout NV - Whaat? It is kinda an FPS!
For 'other': Halo Reach - 'Cmon, Firefight AND Forge!
I was always a bit disappointed that you couldn't climb up the bigger ridges and so got a bit invisible-walled. Also I wish there was a 'clamber' button so you can get over little piles of rocks which can sometimes be just slightly too big to jump over. But I can see why you aren't allowed to climb the bigger hills, as then the game turns into a walk in the park with a sniper rifle. More so than it can be already.Squilookle said:
Always hated that level in CoD2 as your teammates are just so ineffective. In the end it's you against everyone coming at you from everywhere. Until you get to go to the roof of a building, then it becomes a lot more fun. The game has some incredible set pieces though, and I just find it infinitely more fun than the recent CoD games.
Never played BF1942, not much of a multiplayer gamer beyond some TF2 (which I haven't played in years now). I saw a friend play BF2 once and it seemed to involve waiting around for a vehicle which someone else always steals. Almost all the UT I did was offline or coop because the bots were so good. Malcolm only ever pissed me off when he was on a team. By himself it was always easy. Xan would fuck me right up though, especially as I hate the map you fight him on (Hyperblast?).
Tribes Vengeance I played for the singleplayer which was a fantastic space opera. Everything was brightly coloured and clear, moving about was great because of the skiing, jetpacks and grappler, the weapons were fun and the missions quite varied (with the giant outdoor maps being the best). The story was actually quite fun with some nice twists as well. But it got released in the same year as a certain HL2 and Tribes veterens hated the game before it was even released because it was trying to be more accessible.
