I do play some non-mainstream stuff from time to time, but usually at a friends house, but I do know there is TONS of great shooters out there, i'm just taking from what I own and played(ish).
MUST. PLAY. MORE. GAMES.
I agree, the lines are very much blurred with that series and I also am hesitant to call it an FPS. However, the series is really really awesome and so I thought I could get away with including it because it's a first-person game and you do fire projectiles. So yeah, any excuse to mention Metroid Primebeliever258 said:All of those games you listed are particularly awesome, but can Metroid Prime really be called a shooter? In its original Gamecube state, it was an action-adventure game that was in first person. It didn't even have a traditional shooting mechanic, which by the way made it vastly better than it would have been with a traditional dual-analog control scheme. I'm just wondering how it qualifies a shooter, because first person does not always equal shooter.CrashBang said:Poor choices, bro (and GeOW isn't an FPS) and you won't get any 'hurr durr' crap on this site
My all-times favourites are the Metroid Prime series, Bioshock, Fallout 3 (although that one's fairly cross-genre) and I was a big fan of the first Killzone back in the day. My favourite CoD was CoD2 but Modern Warfare was also great and my favourite Halo is Reach, it really is a 'best of' Halo game
EDIT: Totally forgot about Battlefield, embarrassing. BFBC2 is my favourite multiplayer game evaar
That's why your poll will not reflect the true opinion of the people, so maybe change the question? and why GOW in a list of FPS games? I'm just trying to understand the goal of your pollLegoDudeGuy said:Well, the poll system used here on the Escapist only allows for 8 choices and even if that was not a issue, I could not POSSIBLY list EVERY SINGLE SHOOTER in the last 10 years. So there.de5gravity said:Seriously, too few choices, and why is gears of war up there?
what about Fear? borderlands? condemned? too many bro. just look at this thread http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.279440-Suggestions-of-good-SOLO-FPS
Also, that is why there is a "None of the Above" option.
gears is not a FPS also mine would be..... crysis one it lets me play how i want toLegoDudeGuy said:Hey there Escapist.
Here is the MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION EVER!!!
What is your Favorite FPS Series?
Favorite meaning in terms of gameplay, setting, story, characters etc.
I don't want any "HURR DURR, CALL OF DOUTY IS BETTUR THUN HALOZ AND GEARZ OF WOAR!!" crap.
So, tell me.
(BTW, I have played Call of Duty, Halo, TF2, Borderlands and a little bit of Gears.)
(EDIT: It is now by series, not title, to allow many different choices.)

OT: Unreal Tournament.
EDIT: Also GoW isn't an FPS, it's a 3rd Person Shooter.
