Recent FPS with a good single player storyline?

broona · 19 Apr 2020 at 18:05

Feels like ages since I've played an FPS, can't even remember the last one I played to be honest...

Can anyone recommend one made in the last 3yrs or so that's good for single player? I've got no interest in online shooters as I'm rubbish, but I've just bought some cheap PSN credit so I'm looking to spend some of it. Thanks in advance.

Titanfall 2. Relatively Short, but very good single player campaign. Should be cheap too

Destiny 2 is a fantastic PvE that's pretty and FREE!

Latest COD single player is excellant

Prey.

Not so sure about recent but Bioshock remastered trilogy. Titanfall 2 has an awesome campaign as well. Trust me!

Thanks for the replies, just set it away downloading Destiny 2, I must have bought my son Titanfall 2 at some point in time so it came up as free, bonus!

I was looking at Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Remastered if that's the one you mean?

Played and completed Prey many years ago on the PC, is the PS4 version different?

I downloaded the Bioshock Trilogy when it was free on PS Plus too, just never got round to playing it, thanks for the reminder.

Prey, easily. You can't consider it a pure shooter but it's one of the best games I played this generation.

It's been down to about a fiver, so I'll give it a go next time it drops.

Got COD Remastered in my basket, is that worth 20 quid?

I think they meant 2019 Modern Warfare, not the MW/MW2 remasters.

Aah, thank you, I'll see if I can find a cheap copy, don't fancy paying £45 from the PlayStation store.

I just played through the first Bioshock again for the first time since it originally came out. Still really good, it's certainly dated, but well worth playing. It's not particularly long compared to some.

I couldn't get away with Prey either.

Metro Exodus looks great is single player. Really enjoyed it.

I've just started Bioshock again, and enjoying it so far.

Metro Exodus is free at the minute with the Xbox game pass, I'll try it out later, thanks for the recommendation.

Doom 2016 is good and cheap

Thanks, I'll have a look for it.

Just realised I've got Gears of War 4 and 5 to play through on the Xbox too, so should have plenty to keep me occupied whilst I'm furloughed, thanks for all the recommendations.

Doom 1 and Doom 2 (originals) are £2.49 on PS4 right now! No idea how they play on a console though.

The Metro games are simply excellent.

I wasn't a huge fan of Doom back in the day on PC, but I'm sure for the sake of a couple of quid, I can try it again.

Started playing a couple of the Metro games on PC a few years ago, downloading whichever one's free at the minute too, cheers.
