Which games deserve to be considered the Top 5 FPS Games of All Time? Considering the popularity and the reach of the genre across every platform it would be no easy task to decide on the 5 that had the most influence. However, this article did just that.
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
The most disappointing and infamous video game endings even sour the overall thoughts of a game. Most of these titles represent some of the finest entries in their respective series, marred by an ending we can't quite forgive.
There is no game called Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2, but Rebirth had a great ending imo. Felt robbed by the ending at first, but the more I've seen it and during my 3rd playthrough, I started to understand and realize a lot more that make me appreciate the ending.
I was enjoying FFVII Remake, even though those whispers throughout the game were annoying. But the ending was so bad that I don't even want to play Rebirth. On top of that, from what I saw on reviews, the ending of Rebirth is even worse.
Also, I'm glad to see Zero Time Dilemma being recognized as the trainwreck it is. After the amazing two first games (especially the near perfect second one), the low quality of the trilogy end is baffling. The new characters are bad, the old characters don't feel like themselves, a surprise "alien technology" pops out of nowhere, the big twist was like "eh?", and it doesn't really finish the story nor explains the loose threads from the second game.
How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?
Though I've never shamefully played Half Life, it seems deserving of the #1 spot based on how people treat the game.
From what I have played my list would be something like this:
1) Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
2) Halo: Combat Evolved
3) Killzone 2
Unfortunately I haven't played too many FPS'es and was only introduced to the genre with Halo CE. I absolutely loved Call of Duty 4. Halo is pretty much tied with CoD4 and the only reason I gave #1 to CoD4 was because I haven't played Halo in a LONG time. Killzone 2 is a pretty great shooter, though I didn't find myself as addicted and thrilled as I did with Halo and CoD4.
I really wish I had the chance to play Counter-Strike, Half-Life series, and Perfect Dark/Golden Eye (when it came out, the game is atrocious today). It would totally change my perspective on FPS based on what I constantly hear about those games, but I guess I fall under the "ignorant" FPS fanbase.
I whole-heartedly agree with Half Life 2 being #1
Goldeneye 007 needs to be up there.
Why is that a picture of Halo 2? It says Halo:Combat Evolved in the article. And thank god it does because Halo2 was garbage compared to the first.
no love for Deus ex?
