Spec me an FPS

What's happened with FC2?

It's rubbish, sadly.

Totally different dev team, as the guys that did the original FarCry went off and made Crysis.

FarCry 2 actually has a lot of potential, but is completely ruined by re-spawning guard checkpoints that you run into literally every 60 seconds and the fact they thought it would be a good idea to give your character malaria and force him to have to track down medication for it throughout the game.
 
As above and also TF2, not everyones cup of tea but the hunor involved in it and how playable it can be can quite easily help you look past the cartoony graphics, which imo work well with it

You forgot about the mal... oh no you didn't... also the gun degredation is pretty dire and the way missions aren't nicely linked in an elegant pattern through the map - instead you will end up criss-crossing the map 3 times through the same area - having to kill the same guards in the same checkpoints each time - and back to do one mission and then the next mission will be an entirely different side of the map...

With some modding tho, malaria removed (maybe just a mission at the start and then your "cured"), last 3 check points don't respawn and progressive mission flow - it would be a very good game.
 
I played this for a bit last night, I am really pleased so far. It's very good! The graphics are great, the gameplay is immersive and rewarding. I like :D

The only criticisim I have is that the pace is too quick, I felt that I was being forced through each level too quickly, so had no time to examine the incredible environments the designers had created.

I understand a Modern Warfare 2 is in the wings?
 
yes COD4-5 and HL2 but no one mentions painkiller, its smooth on game play and its awsome fun, and you shot to heavy metal music and stuff.

its rare now, tbh its under rated, if you find it, it will be quite cheap to get, and it maybe the complete edtion (universe) which inculdes overdoes.
 
You really can't go wrong with Cod 2/4 and WaW.
Non stop relentless shooting with no gay puzzle solving to bore you.
Bioshock is pretty good for the surreal setting and storyline.
STALKER and CS is atmospheric and involving.
Dark Messiah is a sort of FPS but you batter to death instead of shoot.
Quake 4 and Fallout 3 nearly made me self harm.
