Out of all the video game genres, the first person shooter or FPS may be the most ubiquitous one. Shooting at random mooks with instruments of destruction that seem as if extensions of your own person tends to be hella immersive.
A look back at 4A Games' admirably consistent post-apocalyptic shooter franchise.
The best shooter campaign since Half-Life 2 still hasn't been topped eight years later.
I agree with this. The time travel mechanics. The sense of scale. The relationship with your mech. The bosses all had personalities. It's a wonderful game.
Yeah it was good, but it only did the time travel bit in one level. Dishonered 2 did the same thing. Now how about a game where it's implemented throughout the gameplay? Singularity says Hello (and deserves so much more recognition).
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

The title should be changed to “Best FPS games since 2007”. You can’t say ALL TIME and not have any of the great FPS campaigns that started the genre.
They are all great games and I'm not disagreeing or maybe its my nostalgia but all these games are after the millennium....
Exhumed on Sega Saturn,Quake 2 on PC, Goldeneye on N64 must be mentioned imo.
