unhn I usually like these guys top 10s but this was just bad

Why is doom 3 there?
Why is halo so high? Halo invented teabagging?
Why is half-life 2 so low?
Why is goldeneye so high?
No deus ex?
No unreal tournament?
Why is bioshock there but not system shock 2?
No original doom?
Why is doom 3 there?
Quake and Wolfenstein are there but no doom 1?
Why the **** is doom 3 there!!!?!?!
 
No top 10 in the history of the internet has ever been good.

And Goldeneye is awesome.
 
yeah goldeneye was awesome but not best fps ever material, not even close :|
 
It's very much up there with the best. Infact, i'm still waiting for something that improves upon what GE did so well to come along.
 
Horrible list, indeed. Painfully so.

Or rather, the positioning in the list is horrible. I would argue that some of those games are horrible, but most of them are good.

Just entirely in the wrong order.

I don't know why operation flashpoint wasn't included... that's a shooter for smart people compared to games like Halo, and is far more sophisticated.
 
Oh sweet Jesus that guy has the most annoying voice ever to to be spewed out of an American head. Even worse than that he's thinks he's funny. Even worse than that Half-Life 2 is ****ing EIGHTH?!

Thanks, now I'm angry already and I've only just woken up.
 
meh, the list wasn't horrendous, what I did HATE though was that guy's terrible commentary. I wonder if he knows what a retard he sounds like? Ah well, I suppose it's the writers fault and not his, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't even read his script before he went to record it
 
Those guys in SA/GT are pro-consoles, its surprising there are pc games on that list.
 
Absolutely ridiculous list.
Annoying voiceover.
Doom 3, WTF?
I don't have a problem with Halo series but Halo 1 and so high?
Wolfstein 3D? I played that game this year, aside from some nostalgic feelings it's totally shitty game.
Counter-Strike "looks like shit"? What? CSS maps looks amazing.
Poor footage for Half-Life 2 and why it's so low?
Yes, Goldeneye is overrated. :rolleyes:
 
It's so easy to come up with a top ten list for FPS games.

1.) Make a list of every obvious "big name" shooter that everybody and their mother knows about.
2.) Arrange at random.
3.) Hate mail!

Every single one of these things are practically identical, only with minor variations in absurdity.
 
I agree with Goldeneye being there but not so high, and no Perfect Dark? That pretty much used Goldeneye's elements and enhanced them. Doom 3, haha..... no. Half-Life 2 should be MILES higher, and I thought Bioshock was boring.

BUT no Operation Flashpoint. Nail in the coffin.
 
It wasn't so bad. There's a few I wouldn't have added - Doom 3, CoD, Wolfenstein - and a few that should be there - HL, Doom, Perfect Dark - but hey, at least Golden Eye is in the right spot and Halo got some love :cheese: Nice to see Quake get recognition too.

A triumph for gameplay over point and shoot story-em-ups.

And no, spending 20 mins sitting in a bush and crawling around doesn't equal clever play *looks at Flashpoint*.
 
Half-Life 2 should be atleast #5, with HL1 being at the top spot.

BF1942 should on the list too.

Just because you're a noob at the game, doesnt make it bad :p
 
^Thief goood, Operation Flashpoint baaad.

Halo definitely deserved to be on there (note my sig), but it should have been one of the last three.

And lastly, to paraphrase Samon, Goldeneye can fellate itself.

EDIT: God, his laughter and narration is so annoyingly fake...

Call of duty 4 had a great campaign, but it really excelled where all good FPSes excel - multiplayer.

Aaarrrgh!
 
All of you that don't like Goldeneye, I have to ask why?

Also, that top 10 list was a complete pile of bollocks. Halo at #2, CS and HL2 both lower on the list? Uhhh... and what is Bioshock doing there?

Why the lack of universal and unquestioning love for GE?

I could go on for pages - and probably have here in the past - about how well thought out and structured its missions were. How its weapons and gadgets put virtually every other fps arsenal (bar Perfect Dark's) to shame and how perfectly balanced the difficulty settings were (a very, very rare thing in fps). Most importantly, how simply firing a gun in GE felt more empowering than anything we've seen since.

Golden Eye took the fps we'd been playing up to that point and undummed them.
 
wow, that guys voice is annoying.....WHY DOOM 3.....doom 3 ahead of bioshock.....i love how all of those games are specifically console games. so i really wouldnt say there were pc variants in there but w/e
 
I loved GE. So many hours spent on that game >_<

To be fair they were nearly all pc games. The Bioshock and Doom 3 we saw were the pc versions, Duke Nukem, Wolf, Quake, CS, HL2 etc.

I'm guessing Deus Ex, SS2, Thief and Metroid Prime etc weren't shooty enough for the list.

No, Golden Eye took many conventions from previously successful PC games, implemented them reasonably well, and walked away with a LOT more credit than it was due.

There weren't really many console FPSes at the time of its release, so it had little to challenge it.

When was it released? 1997?

Such as?

Golden Eye disregarded the conventions Doom, Quake et al introduced and brought the genre foward about 2 generations in one swoop. There had seriously been nothing like it.
 
Not to mention it's still a blast. My friends and I were playing deathmatch in Caves with grenades weapon set the other night, and honestly in terms of fun gameplay that game hasn't hardly aged at all. In terms of graphics, though... yikes.
 
Explosions were awesome too, they'd literally fill up hallways ala Bomber Man.
 
GE wasn't entertaining to me. When I played it, I was very bored. There's my reason for not enjoying it :D
 
No wonder that other guy left their shitty show.
 
Anyone who doesnt like Goldeneye has no friends. Anyone who abbreviates Goldeneye as GE deserves a cockslap.
 
"This game kicks a$$" (with camera zooms on Alyx's bottom). It's a Wayne's World production.

Halo was so incredibly shit. It was mediocrity galore. Far Cry was more original and trendsetting than Halo. Why every casual gamer and their cat masturbates over it, I'll never know :|
 
Far Cry I waltzed through on the hardest setting without the need to think or put in any practise. Cheap, easily exploitable ai, and point and click gameplay. It doesn't have 1/10 of the depth that Halo's combat boasts.

So ner :p
 
Half-Life 2 reduced to number 8?!!!?
What is this world coming to!?
