What do you guys think the best fps this year is? Take into account story, features, gameplay, and fun factor

My pick is a tie between BF:BC2 and Halo Reach.

Here's some info:

BC2 - awesome multiplayer which is quite hard to get into if you are a low rank, as higher levels will slaughter you, No Co-Op despte 4 unique characters in story.

Metro 2033 - No MP, but an awesome story and some innovative mechanics

Halo Reach - Content galore,Good Story,Fun Mp, yet repetative gameplay

Cod BO - Addictive Mp, yet comletely unchanged gameplay from Cod 4, OK Story. Fun (yet completely unrelated) Zombie mode.

Plagueless

Story? Shooter? You can only pick one or the other.

Goldeneye 007 Wii wins for me! That is the only single player FPS that makes you want to play it again and again. Single player does matter folks!

graphically halo reach looks and runs like a incompete game, when compared to bad company 2 or medal of honor or call of duty black ops. halo reach sucked the multiplayer maps are horrible so simplistic and boring.

[QUOTE="waltefmoney"]

[QUOTE="J-WOW"]BO and BC2 are the best, the other two are mehJ-WOW

Halo: Reach and Metro 2033 are meh? Have you played them?

I played Reach, meh to the max. I didnt play 2033 but I saw alot of it and wasnt impressed

If you haven't played Metro 2033 on the PC, you really aren't qualified to make judgements about it. The difference is night and day.

Halo Reach is the only one I have played out of those, and I enjoyed it. 8.5 from me so yeah, I guess that would be the best FPS of the year imo.

[QUOTE="J-WOW"][QUOTE="ohthemanatee"]so what's your gamertag?

ohthemanatee

I dont have a 360, everyone here knows that, Im pro PS3-Triple. However ALL my friends have 360s, I have play most major exclusives

so i'm guessing that if black ops were a 360 exclusive you would be calling it boring as well

Most likely, anything with a MS logo on it he despises.

i was talking about the power ups you get from masssive use of one kit (magnum ammunition) - a sniper with the M95 and that can kill you incredibly easily.

Reach is one of the best shooters in the last ten years imo. It's so close to topping Halo CE, it topped both Halo 2 and Halo 3 though. Jet packs ftw.

I would say Metro 2033 for the SP and BC2 for the MP

However since I have spent over 200 hours in BC2, I have to give it the best fps recommendation.

themyth01
halo reach or killzone3 doesnt really have a jetpack, it's more of a jump jet, u can only fly for like 5 seconds. on duke nukem 3d you could fly around for 60 seconds that's a real jetpack.

In terms of single player it's GoldenEye. As much as I like the intense and fast paced CoD-ish campaigns, I've just enjoyed the oldschool formula more this year. Different difficulty settings, classic mode and time trial. But these things are nothing without incredible level design.

It has its fair share of average parts as well as a few meh's, but overall the campaign is stellar.

I don't really go online but from my perspective, I like both the Halo and CoD gameplay.

As much as I hate the crapload of unnecessariy stupid Black Ops love threads we get around SW by certain persons, I do think its the best FPS this year. Of course other then BC2, Halo Reach and Singularity I'd say this year was a little lacking in FPS games.

Halo... BFBC2 is a incredibly game.. Still play when not playing halo. But Halo gameplay and modes are just insane. Metro def game im gonna play it looks awesome. Cod is now just trash.. Cod1 Cod2and Cod4 are the good ones. BO and Wow and MF2 were either trash or a crappy expansion. Will say its gameplay is really good buts the exact same game every yr.

medal of honor on ps3/360 looks better than halo reach which kinda sad considering halo reach is exclusive game. medal of honor's levels are much more complex, halo reach's levels feel incomplete and empty like a mapper's still working on finishing the map.

Goldeneye is the only good shooter I've played this year, and I don't think it's much better than an 8/10. I think the genre as a whole is running out of steam. Haven't played Reach yet, though. But Call of Duty? Prime example of exceedingly lazy single player game design and buggy, unbalanced multiplayer.

Bad Company 2 is my favorite of the year. Looking back, it was a really lackluster year for the genre.

It is the only shooter i can play without getting asleep from the repeattive, linear and boring shooting gameplay all others have

I could very well say the same thing about Halo. I don't consider any game that relies on auto aim to play well. Auto aim =/= skill and that's why I laugh when people say games like Halo take more skill than say, Battlefield. Also Reach's AI might as well be in a vegitative state. If they're not standing out in the open where NPCs can shoot them and not taking any cover at all, they're rushing straight at you with an energy sword (and failing.) At least Goldeneye's AI knew how to take cover.
