Timesplitters: Future Perfect, which is also the best multiplayer shooter imo.
Timesplitters is just dam good XD Timesplitters 2 and future perfect are a very sweet bled of all time zones in history

picture ; the mummy, halo, call of duty, the godfather, dawn of the dead, back to the future and the 80's all in one game (sounds terrible on internet paper, huh)

There is something for all in this game XD

Wow I wouldn't have guessed that Half Life 2 gets it, don't understand me wrong its a great game, but play Bioshock or Deus Ex back to back to Half life.. and you see that both are not as frantic and hectic, but more tactical and thats what I like about a game, that said Deus Ex would have taken it it, just before System shock 2, simply because Deus Ex always offers more than just one solution.

Haha, for a moment I was like 'WHAT!? No Counter Strike!?' then I saw Half Life '98, so its all good. I was also concerned for a moment that ME wasn't on there, but that is really an RPG, so fair call (However, you included Deus Ex?). I think without Half Life, there would've been the need for something else of significant magnitude to get the gaming industry to this point, in terms of popularity of FPS.
ME is actually a TPS/RPG, so wouldn't qualify for this list.
Technically yes, good point. But I mean c'mon, First vs. Third. When I first started playing ME I was annoyed I couldn't get right behind the gun, but it turns out fine, the difference is quite trivial.

Trivial, yes, but the difference is still there and that's enough to disqualify it from the list.

Which reminds me of the odd case of Fallout: NV being nominated for "best strategy game of 2010" in the BAFTAs...

But what I want answered is - why are people putting MW2 as the best FPS ever, when I can factually prove it is one of the worst games ever made (opinion :p)?
(Including freeware, demos and interactive videos)

[HEADING=3]IRREFUTABLE PROOF[/HEADING]
Yeah, sorry, I saw no proof there, just endless complaining and ranting.

Why don't you mention dedicated servers. That seems to be irrefutable.

So, did they get zero strategy games submitted that year or something?

I presume so, because I wasn't following them - I heard it from others. Maybe the judges were just a bit unclear on genre definitions.

The other games nominated are strategy games alright.

Civilization V
FIFA Manager 11 (best game ever)
Napoleon: Total War
Plants vs. Zombies
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty

Vegas is pretty much the odd one out.

Doom is fantastic, I've been unable to enjoy an FPS as much as I have Doom. I mean, I've never sat down and played the Modern Warfare or Halo 3 campaign for hours at a time. Doom is just the very essence of what FPS's are, it's nostalgic, it's action-packed, it's timeless, it's memorable (in almost every regard) etc.

Yeah, I can't really understand that. I mean... how do you classify the new Fallouts as strategy games?

Well, for starters, you control multiple units in that one... oh, wait.

It wasn't a particularly grand year for strategy games so I can kinda understand... at least it didn't win.

But, really. FIFA Manager in (which is great) and Football Manager out (which is greater)?

The problem with the BAFTA awards is that you have to actually do something to be entered into competition - that's why RDR got nothing, Rockstar refused to pay the small fee to run in the competition. Good thing, too, or another "Best Story" would've went to that average drivel.

I can only presume the same thing happened to Football Manager.

I cant be bothered to check more than the first two pages but how or why has no one mentioned Fallout3 or New Vegas? Are they not FPS? Somebody picked oblivion so I'll be damned if I cant pick FO3 or NV!

i would like to start out by just clarifying most of the other posters opinions here are wrong.. it's not my opinion it's just a fact. your wrong face it. we are talking FPS right.. so there can be only one game that has taken the genre to a point where only a next generation leap in technology will surpass it....

Project Reality.... sure you say. it's a mod.... sure you say it's a mod of BF2.... but you'd still be wrong and PR would still be better then anything anyone can say about another FAIL shooter.

it's just the greatest most intense FPS experience one can have...and it just keeps getting better...

P.S. just stir'n guys... this really is all about subjective opinion so their really can be no such thing as a best FPS.

My favourite fps series? Halo.

Love forge, love firefight love the online community, amazing gameplay, cool weapons, multiple grenade types, intense tactical gameplay mixed in with runny shooty bangy fun and then the greatest cross media story ever told, love every second of it.

second would probably be deus ex, for obvious reasons.

Wow, Bioshock is 3th...

Half-Life for its replayability and modding scene + cult classic. Deus Ex's FPS wasnt THAT great as I remember, otherwise it could take the cake.

3th? Now there's a word I didn't know existed. :p

Also, necro or not, I like this thread, so it's cool that it's suddenly going again.

My favourite? Metroid Prime...it's incredible, I love all the exploration and the action, even if the camera movement isn't as good as it could be
