What's ya fav 3d shooting game?

[Wilan Wong]

I just want to know what was everyone elses favourite shooting game. I like Unreal Tournament the best then I like Quake 3 Arena.

[OuTpaTienT]

Single player - Half Life is the best 3D shooter I've played. And I've been playing them since before Doom and even before Wolfenstien 3D.

Multi-player - Unreal Tourn. is what I predict will be my favorite after I get my Athlon system up. But for now I still play A LOT of Quake 2...mostly the mod TOURNAMENT and in rail-only matches.

[RCN_Moose]

For fast paced non-stop action Unreal Tournement can't be beat. But I'd have to agree with OuTpaTienT, Half-Life is the best game EVER!

Best single player for me is Halflife. Best Multiplayer is HalfLife-TFC..best of all they come in the same box!
Second on both would be UT.

[seti]

The single player HL experience can only be discribed as epic. OppFor, though short, upped the ante even more. For a conventional FPS, this was it, and still is. CS is a great MP game as well.

Rouge Spear, wow, haveing to actully care if you get shot adds so much feeling to a game. Some of the levels are SOOOOOOOOO freak'n hard!!! (Airplane).

System Shock 2. The only game to cause me more fear than getting surpised by a headcrab. It's probably one of the most unconventional FPS ever....almost an RPG.

Theif, I got it with my sound card, havn't played it much yet, but I hear great things about it all the time. It's also unconventional.

Seams I like the FPS more that arn't mostly about run and gunning. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

[HmC_RaNgEr]

Hey guys...the best game out there is Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Rogue Spear. The most realistic game, and intense game there is.

Hey Moose...I am getting a different cable modem today...you should come with me.

Later guys,
Ranger

[RCN_Moose]

Hey Ranger-
Yes Rogue Spear is good, but even it can't compete with Half-Life. There is a reason that reviewers everywhere are calling it the best game ever. Dust off you copy and lets kick some but!

Swat3 annihilates Rogue Spear so much it's not funny. Swat3 is 99999999999 times better than rogue spear, cause u have more control over yer units, the AI is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Rogue Spears poor effort, and the missions and atomsphere are better. Swat3 Forever! Just wait till the Multoplayer addon comes out for it! That'll be sweet.

[neo_otyugh]

half life is the best all around. loved it, loved opposing force and CS is awesome.

[seti]

Swat3 is cute, but it's no Rouge Spear IMHO. It's not nearly as deep, or challageing....there's no real mission planing (thus no real stratagy), and the equipment selection is a joke. The graphics have one up on RS, but the levels don't compare.

To each there own, but Swat3 is not "99999999999 times better than rogue spear"

[[Neo770]]

Half Life: Oposing Force and Unreal not UT. Quake 3 is OK too.

[mattheadfat]

hey OuTpaTienT, what fps's came out before wolfenstien? how old is wolfenstien now anyway, it was so cool when i came out

[archangelm]

Its a progressive series over time! Wolfenstein 3d- good
Spear of Destiny! the devil scares me
Doom - good
Rise of the Triad - cool, 2 guns
Duke Nukem3d - wow, Real good
Quake - Real good
Rainbow Six - wow, cool
Half-Life - I can't believe how great it is!
Thief - weird fun, I like to blackjack!

[matrixgod22]

The original Unreal sucks ****, especially Multiplayer even Quake 1 would be better for multi and Quake II just kicks Unreal ***. UT would be 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times better than the original Unreal.

[Joel Kleppinger]

Let's just put it this way:

FPS were just benchmarks to me before UT. It's the first and only FPS I've actually enjoyed playing. (I'm a diehard racing/sports game fan)

[grandslammer]

UT here, definately. But, inherited a copy of Quake III, thought that would be cool. But, I can't get all of the buttons on my Logitech Digital Thunderpad to work. With only 4 buttons and my 8-way direction, well it sucks. All buttons work in UT, and I think it rocks!

Soldier of Fortune... Oh yeah!

Yep.. all hail the new King of shooters, SOF. That is, until the Q3Fortress mod is released Sunday 4/1... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

[Warthog]

Rogue Spear and Half Life get the vote(s) for me. I've played RS a whole lot more than HL because I'm more of a realism fan (very much into military guns, etc). That's not to say that HL was bad - it just wasn't EXACTLY my style.

SWAT 3 was a HUGE dissapointment. I played the demo and thought it sucked compared to RS. Like others said, you have no control over your units and the weapons suck! The only cool thing is that you can shoot through walls.

[Flexomarkmtl]

Well Half Life multiplayer CS beta 6.1 is so good !!!

System Shock played on a dolby surround sound system can make you ****-in-pants.
The AI is real good...sometimes.

Another not bad game is Shadowman (2 hand usage)

[PhyrePhox]

Quake 3 sucks ***, Unreal Tournament is one of the best I've ever played...but COUNTER-STRIKE IS THE FRIGGIN' BEST!@@@@!!!!@!@!!@!!

[Tekkitan]

Hey Q3A DOESNT SUCK! UT SUCKS! hehe

my favorite is Rogue Spear also, I recently got the addon for it too (Urban Operations). That is also kickass, has some new missions and some older ones from the original Rainbow Six. My next favorite is Q3A. Glad to see so many fellow gamers out there!

[MadMatt]

Half-Life is the best overall, IMHO. It has a different feel than Quake or UT. Action and Counterstrike are excellent HL Mods too.

UT gets an honorable mention for a great look and excellent internet multiplayer code. Thee look and feel of standing on the outside of Phobos moon is so authentic it makes me nauseous.

[Amorpheous]

UnrealT, then half-life, then quake3, then SOF are my favs.
IMO, quake3 has more eye-candy and the action is faster, but unrealT has much better levels and the pace is perfect...it also looks realistic as compared to q3.
quake3 is just another tired rehash of the doom series anyways, and unrealT has awesome weapons.

[neo_otyugh]

counter strike is by far the best that i have played...i haven't been so addicted since wolfenstein 3d...

[mattheadfat]

i used to play tribes quite abit, the graphics arn't great, but it's the only multiplayer fps i enjoy, i honestly prefer single player games, i loved halflife, i also really enjoyed blood 2 for some reason.
the people i know how play tribes swear by it, and drool over the tribes 2 videos that are out.

[Wilan Wong]

Now I think that Quake III sucks dirt, now I have played Half-Life at my friend's house I reckon' it rocks, but I still like Unreal Tournament better though. Quake III went a bit boring after a while it feels a lot like Quake I (weapons, feel, gameplay etc.) But Quake III would of course have better graphics and sound than the old Quake I. Still like Quake II though...

[mrdisco]

I must admit I'm a pretty big fan of Quake 3. Sure, it sucks as a single player game. Sure, there's no real objective to it. But, when I need to vent frustration, there's no better way to do it than to get online and start fragging... for no reason at all. For me, storylines just get in the way of the action.

Not to mention, of course, the graphics are killer.

Now, if I really want to THINK about what I'm doing, I play Civilization...

[FrozenLiquidity]

HL & Op4 Single player was the best I have ever played. Too bad they didn't include built-in COOP, so now I have to do itmyself with various console commands.
HL has a much higher replay value than UT or any of the other games I have played. I think it is because of how balanced the weapons are. HL will always be a milestone in 1st person-shooters, and it should set the standard for future 1st person shooters.
I think every 1st person game should have it's own unique single-player experience, a storyline and NO BOTS(for single player experiences). For example, Unreal had a great storyline and it's single player-experience was right up to par with HL's single player(in my opinion).

Seti, as for Rainbow 6 and Rogue Spear, if you find some levels to be too hard or impossible, this game is easily modified. I gave all the enemies horrible stats and game my reserves 100% in every category. I also allowed myself access to all of the stages http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[BGod]

I've played Quake II, Half Life, Half Life: Opposing Forces, Shadowman, Unreal, Kingpin, Soldier of Fortune, etc...

The only game I keep coming back to time and time again is Unreal Tournament. There are so many custom maps out there, then you add mutators, and the play online is fantastic. The possibilites are limitless!

[voogru]

Half-Life + CS 6.1 Kix &%^&!

I been playing Half-life since it came out And im still not bored! if you think Quake 3 is good you aint seen nothing yet! i have all the first person shooters and half-life can turn into a third person shooter if you wanted it to( for ya tomb raider freaks!) plus i got every mod i can get my hands on plus there are 10 times as many mods for Hl then there is for quake ya sure quake 3 is good but soon you get bored of kicking @ss and you begin to stop playing with Hl you never really get bored unless you have some real problems i havent played Hl in a while cuz my Motherboard is a POS it has a ton of onboard ***** im makeing a gaming machine for myself and i need a mother board thats good for gaming.

do your self a faver and if you dont have Half-life GET IT!!!!!! you will never regret it! its worth Every F&*&ing Penny

[BC]

As far as a multi-play AND a single play game RS SWAT is cute and a fun SINGLE player game. But as you said can't WAIT til the multiplayer addon comes out. Hey RS ALWAYS had it. They didn't have to release patch after patch to do it either. Which is rare for games these days.

[Tekk]

I don't know what hole you guys are living in but Tribes is BY FAR! the best multiplayer experience I will ever...well..experience! Its fast, its frenzied, it moves perfectly INSIDE TO OUTSIDE (and vice-versa) which no other FPS has truely done. (if I am wrong then by all means tell me, I don't want to make false claims). Although I think the mods are somewhat out of hand in some respects (turrets are rediculously accurate in the mods with laser turrets, etc.) the rest of the game THE best IMHO. Try it out! You will soon be a convert. I used to play Q2 all the time but once I tried Tribes, I haven't gone back to a Quake clone since.

[JBKILLA]

Half Life is the best I've played ever!
After that it's Q3A and Unreal Tourney!

[Ultrakiller]

Half-life is the best F*CKING game out there. (I have it installed 'cause of Counter-Strike)

I have played SOF,Q3,HL,CS,UT and OP. Force and Half-life, CS and OP Force **** every game out there.

Im ****ing waiting for a half-life 2 or something
